The Braves did draft several pitchers in the first round during Brown’s tenure there. Who knows whose call that was. I think Brown is purely...
I don’t view the 13th position player as a meaningful on-field resource. I actually think that role requires someone who is ok not playing and...
I mentioned him in the hypothetical trades thread. I think he’d make a good target if nothing else is available. LH bat with some upside and...
Bukauskas
Now for the pitchers: Hunter Brown: having a Cy Young level season Framber Valdez: having an all-star level season Josh Hader: one of the best...
Which position players is Houston looking to upgrade? Each current position player’s best role on a playoff roster: Jeremy Pena: having an MVP...
Even worse. 28 innings all year then they ride him for 119 pitches. Recipe for future discomfort.
McCullers brings out the crotchety old redneck in me these days. You were out for 2 YEARS. You’ve worked your way back and made all of 7 starts....
I’m no GM, but I would be extremely reluctant to use a 1st round pick on a pitcher whose team is riding his ass to a championship.

Wish I could say I was optimistic about Tredwell in High A. It might be time to keep an eye on Luis Castro. Yes he’s 29, but he’s 142 pa...
This TBD guy is gonna have one tired ass arm after this week.
I think it’s hard to judge a guy who plays so sparingly when they get called up. Hummel did get a fair shake as a rookie, getting 200+ pa with...
I’m having a hard time finding something that Dallas Keuchel had that Brandon Walter doesn’t have.
Just looked at Knorr’s savant data from his AAA appearance last night. He threw 35 pitches, relying on his fastball with his slider and cutter...
