I think this is his last option year, so there's extra pressure on him and the Astros to show something at the MLB level. I was a little surprised...
A major component of the deal was opening playing time for Meyers. I suspect the Astros at the time could have predicted they would likely end up...
Interestingly enough, this will be the first really "normal" IFA period since Click was hired. The 2021 class was mostly Pedro Leon, whether that...
I'm like 99% sure that the difference is that Meyer's and Diaz were inactive during the WS. Lee was activated for the last game. Bannon and France...
Fangraphs dropped their first list this year (Milwaukee), hopefully Houston's will come before July this year. In the write up for Jackson...
The stolen bases are the only thing that jumps off the page about Ruiz. Maybe the A's think that will make him a difference maker, especially if...
Was looking over fangraphs this morning. He's a weird combination of high floor (over 100 innings of ~2.5 ERA in AAA) and a big ceiling thanks to...
Yeah, I doubt he's going to be making top 10 lists, but I'd guess he ends up in the 25-75 range of most lists this offseason.
I'm pretty sure FGDC is the average of their projection systems scaled down into whatever playing time they project the player to get. Right now...
I could see a Zunino like career where his offense bounces around depending on how many HRs he runs into, but provides solid value with his glove....
Jansen gets nearly as much over 2 years as Montero does over 3.
San Diego must be deferring a chunk of these deals. That's the 2nd FA to take $40 million less to not sign there. I don't think it's the weather.
I do think there is some value in terms of lineup construction to avoid stacking same handed hitters. For instance, last season Trevor Gott was a...
Yuli is going to **** around and hit .300 next year.
If Justin Verlander wants a 5 year contract, so he plays until 45, how much would you give him? Would you rather bet on his health and...
The Rangers are going to set a payroll record for teams that finish 4th in the division.
I'll try and choose a few different names here. Breakout players: Colin Barber: this is a critical year for Barber. The 2019 draftee has missed...
Wagner was actually really good after his first month in AA. From July 6th to the end of the year, he hit .283/.409/.452 in 205 PAs for a 127 wRC+...
Ronel Blanco hasn't been one of the best players in the top Cuban league history over the past decade. I think Blanco is a fine enough up and...
That's fair, though I think it could help Dusty have a quicker leash on some of the Young guys like Brown or Whitley if he gets a start. Verlander...
