It was not a good at bat. But he didn’t take 3 obvious strikes looking. He swung and missed on strike one, watch an obvious ball, then looked at...
Almost posted this exact thing this morning. He’s only 21 too. If he gets to AA this season and has success he will be a real prospect. Hard to...
If/when Smith is able to get more loft on the ball, he’s gonna be a BAMF
He homered at the exact moment that Dubon grounded into a double play.
From fangraphs 2022 write up on Mikulski: Mikulski returned for his senior year at Fordham to begin the 2021 season and saw his velocity go from...
Yeah I don’t really understand that. Should’ve kept Walter up to start and had Gusto in reserve to throw 3 if needed.
Braves blockbuster since their season is tanking and their ace just heard his elbow pop: Astros get: 2B Ozzie Albies SP Chris Sale Braves get:...
Add Martin Perez to this list. Heaney would be my #1 target.
I wonder what the lowest % of fastballs a consistently good starting pitcher has been able to get away with. In his first few seasons McCullers...
It’s kind of crazy that the Astros are on pace for 50 fwar as a team (evenly split between pitching and offense), which is normally a threshold...

Great news. I was really really excited about him coming into the season; I didn’t know his injury was that serious. Low k rate, elite speed,...
You can just look at the AA roster and see how glaring the lack of talent is there. Half their everyday lineup is guys who were released by other...
3B
Astros on pace for 88 wins but have the softest part of their schedule ahead of them in June and should get better at the deadline. Astros need...
Luis Encarnacion has been on a tear since getting promoted back up to AA. In 4 games he’s 7 for 13 with a 2B and 2 HR with only 2 k (thru 4 pa...
Meyers’ elite tool is his range, putting him in a corner handicaps that skill. Melton has a better arm than Meyers for sure, but I don’t know if...
If your estimate for those 2 arb years is $40M then that means they’re getting 3 free agent years for $90M. He’s a 4-5 win player. Thats a very...
