His time at AAA really hasn't been ALL that bad...really just one bad start, two poor starts, and the rest have been solid to good.
I don't think anyone would rank Billy's slider as average...that pitch was a 60-70 grade pitch.
Really wish we included Fisher instead of Phillips...
Jason Martin is putting up pretty good stats, but he's about to turn 20 in A ball, doesn't hit home runs, and doesn't steal a ton of bases....
I see Phillips as a Nick Markakis type as his ceiling. Maybe a 10-15 home run guy regularly with 30-40 doubles and .280 - .290 average. Has speed...
What about this...trade for Jesus Montero, the former top prospect. He got into some trouble a year ago for being lazy but has shown up in shape...
The AJ Reed stat that might surprise people...5 triples...how does that fatash have 5 triples???
Kinda surprised he barely mentioned Bagwell in his speech...was kinda hoping he'd say Bags deserved to be up there with him or something.
It's an adjustment from a lifestyle standpoint to a competition standpoint to an environment standpoint. Give them an offseason to adjust.
Yes, that's why they're getting paid.
Do undrafted free agents count towards the pool?
He's more 87-91 and tops out at 92. He's already 6'2 190lbs so his body is relatively mature. Maybe he adds 1-2 mph to his fastball so that he's...
Doubtful Sands takes anything less than the $1.1M his brother got last year to skip college.
Carson Sands (Cole's older brother) was drafted in 2014 and signed for $1.1M to buy him out of a scholarship to FSU. I'd expect Cole to demand a...
As of right now, if we give Daz $4M and give everyone else who is left to sign their full slot amount (Bregman, Eshelman, Ferrell, Person), then...
Could we have gotten Rodgers, Tucker, and Daz???
Don't forget Eshelman was an overdraft as well. I think we can save at least $500k from Eshelman and Hermelyn. Esehlman's slot is $1.325M,...
Very impressed with V2 today. The curveball is much better than expected as all the scouting reports say it's his weakest pitch. Could refine it a...
Let's go after a college reliever/closer who could help down the stretch this year. Should be able to get one for $1M and save 300k
No way Alex gets full slot at #2. Should be a significant savings to go toward Daz. Take a less expensive player with our pick after, probably...
