Couple of surprises there. Julks and Salazar not on the 40 man yet
That is a trashy pile. Minor and Archer are hard passes for me; too consistently bad in the past few years. Maybe we can hope Pineda rebounds. But...
Is Odorizzi available?
I thought Reddick was one of the few that, like Altuve, didn't use the system.
Interesting. Is there a good link to look into the data?
Have it take place during the MLB playoffs. Let the WS winner play the WBC winner in a true world championship.
It should be relatively easy to break this data down by team. Who are the biggest suspected spin rate cheaters? Someone get Drellich and Passan on...
Seeing as Dirden isn't on the 40 man, he has about 0% chance to make the team except maybe as an injury replacement.
Interesting breakdown of times for a game 30 yrs apart: https://www.sbnation.com/a/mlb-2017-season-preview/game-length
Is there any chatter about Hensley getting any time at SS, or is Dubon set at backup SS?
2017 Jake Marisnick faints... I was also gonna point to Marwin's crazy outlier season in 2017, but his much better road split in 2017 actually...

I guess I'd just let Whitley sink or swim at this point. Dude's 25 already
Here's a direct Manfred quote in reference to the Yankees and Red Sox penalties in 2017: "We actually do not have a rule against sign-stealing,"...
Wait... the apple watch system and dugout phone were absolutely illegal. Because any use of electronics was illegal. And both the Yankees and Red...
Exactly. We don't know whether other teams had a batter relay system that didn't rely on a base runner at 2nd. I'd bet a lot of money the 2018...
If all of you want to bury your heads in the sand and say it's all the same, that's your choice. There were two different systems. One was to get...
I agree that other teams were likely relaying signals to the batter in real time, but we only have actual recorded evidence for the Astros. I...
