I don't think letting Springer and Correa walk were his decisions. Having faith in player development group was. Personally, I think it is a much...
Are you against TV games being aired? Want to watch pitchers warm up? Or do you hate that MLB has set a time limit on pitchers warming up? MLB's...
The game changed without MLB tinkering. I'm in close to old fogey territory. I don't want 4-hour+ games with only homers, Ks, walks, and mound...
This. I'm usually one of the more extreme in trying to keep prospects as, in aggregate, they usually make the MLB team better even if most bust....
This is funny. Homers, Ks, and walks don't require long attention spans. They are trying to keep the action of the game closer to that which they...
The driving force for most MLB proposed changes is that pitchers are getting better faster than hitters (partly it is the best pitchers getting...
C should be top easily and 1st bottom. Edit: With the shifts, I'd have 2B beneath the 3B, but still not much difference between 3B, CF, and 2B. I...
I expect Stone is hunting to acquire a great player. Wood and/or Gordon are the matching salaries. If Wood is used to trade up in the draft, I...
A nice 10-game winning streak would be nice right here. After tonight, the Angels got three weeks of teams at least as good as the Red Sox.
Dubin and Tamarez are the big disappointments to me. I was expecting Dubin to already be in the pen by now, and I was expecting Tamarez would be...
I don't think he gets the buyout if he turns down the option. He only gets the buyout if he takes the option and then the team says, no...
Just double checked to be sure and he was indeed a Top 100 pitching prospect by BA. From BA: Stuff-wise, Verlander has no weaknesses.
Why is it only a $3M difference?
To make room for better pitchers that are acquired at the trade deadline and to be able to use the $8.5M of his would be 2023 salary to keep...
Pretty sure Verlander was on one.
There is (or will be if not effective yet) a 13 pitcher limit. I fully expect Brown to be in that 13 after the deadline. If the Astros pitchers...
The Astros have the 4th best offense, the best defense, a Top 4 pitching staff. That's like saying Alvarez's homers barely clear the fence.
Don't sleep on the Pirates, Cubs, and Reds ability to lose games.
I'm hoping Jake goes to the pen or traded if the Astros end up with too many starters. Though, I'm guessing odds are slim Astros end up with 7...
I hope they don't. Saying Jabari as a Freshman in the SEC is similar, but better to what Covington did over 4 years in the OVC is high praise...
