Pay CJ the going market rate and pay him ASAP. Afterwards, pay complementary skill position players below market for the ability to play with a...
Agreed 100% but it's a process. His adjustment to attacking the zone early is going to result in batters swinging early, which theoretically...
I couldn't agree more with your first sentence. This squad has quite a few young players, and I hope that mixing in a battle tested fiery bully...
Looks to me like Arrighetti is starting to trust his stuff in the zone (especially early in counts) and that is mentally monumental. I don't see...
What tools have Blubaugh shown that impressed you such? Pitchers are just so difficult to project, less they have Skenes-like obvious dominance....
In our current minor league system, and I want to limit this to AA & AAA only, whom would you consider (if anyone) to be among the "very few"? At...
Guys with very poor plate approach. Swinging at anything near the plate. These guys don't appear to be zoning in for certain pitches and...
See post #28.
I missed today's game, unfortunately, because I wanted to see his plate approach. Too many of our bats either appear to have no plan at the plate,...
I see no reason to not give Leon a long, serious look for the duration of the season. As is, guys like Chas, Cabbage, Hummel, Meyers, et al have...

I never saw Snell as a possibility without sacrificing TOP prospects in the minors. We just aren't in that position, if we want to keep the window...

Hmm. I'm not as high on Bloss as others seem to be, but I understand he is very young and has multiple years of team control (very valuable). I...
Thank you, Angels. I'll tell you what frustrates me. It isn't losing to the A's, because losses are going to happen. What frustrates me (beyond...
Negative credit for Meyers. In that situation, you must look to drive a pitch into the outfield. Even a K isn't a rally killer. That DP, though.
Good job, Montero, no matter the circumstances. Credit given.
Montero warming up now = white flag. He's the human defeat cigar at this point.
So great, but with such a glaring deficiency in his game.
