You do realize he signed his extension prior to the 2019 season, his MVP season, right?
My guess is because Fangraphs war is based on FIP and the pitchers (other than JV) all are below league average
Isn't the hype around Nix from his time in the GLeague though (when he blew up)? He averaged 49.2% FG and 39.7% from 3 in the GLeague. Those...
The Yankees fielding a DH at catcher also helped in that walk off win
Back with those moves the farm system was actually fairly good. How long do you think that can continue with the below average state of the farm...
Would be the classic small market Astros move. Can't afford a player leaving for FA so gotta trade what little prospects we have to replace that bat
All of those are expiring contracts and Theis is owed 27m over the next 3 years. That's why this deal was done.
Some people rather see Morey burn than help the Rocket's draft capital I guess (assuming Harden doesn't bounce back)
It's like you're conveniently ignoring the "Jr" part. That is what would make someone think they are related lol. If Michael B Jordan went by...
That's not even the same thing though. He is a Jr, so he knows his dad is named Kevin Porter so that at least makes some sense. That is not the...
Baez has only played SS in 52% of his career games, so it's not like Baez would be blocking Correa at SS. If they want to spend what Correa wants,...
From what I've understood, the lockout affects all players on the 40 man roster as those are the players represented by the MLBPA. Here's an...
I'd say the league has more elite SS than 3B, so it would look better for him (assuming having to learn 3B doesn't affect his offense)
Gonna be really weird to see Correa in a Yankees jersey next year
Let's hope he does better than the last big FA reliever we signed. A bullpen of Pressly, Stanek, Neris, Maton, Baez (?) seems solid
It's definitely a gamble, but they likely wouldn't be able to sign him if he reaches FA, so now they have him for an extra 5 (6 with the option)...
Did you see the bullpen before the deadline? There's your reason lol
Marte has 61 homeruns (1794 PA) and Correa has 67 homeruns (1650 PA). Granted most of Marte's HR power was in 2018/2019
Awesome news. JV, LMJ, Valdez, Garcia, Urquidy/Javier/Odorrizi sounds like a solid rotation if they can all stay healthy
It was fun having Correa on the team but he's gone. 5 years is not gonna work with Correa unless he gets no offers
