Potential good trade for both sides. I like Bummer and an equivalent deal for Houston might’ve been something like Whitley, Kessinger, Dubin,...
Is this something that you’re hearing is gonna happen?
We’ll just have to wait and see if Meyers is traded and what the return is. I think there’s a handful of smart orgs out there that properly see...
Crane is gonna offer Breggy $175M/6yr and he will end up getting $230M/7yrs from another team. Diamondbacks, Dodgers, Yankees, Giants, Mariners,...
Melton hasn’t played a single game at 1B, why would you think that’s where he will end up?
I personally think he will stick at 3B and has a chance to be very good defensively. I have seen blurbs about him ending up at 1B but I think...

That is extremely surprising to me if Corona is the only player they have added. Colin Barber should be an absolute lock to be taken by a...
The Padres main owner died.
Best argument for protection of each upper level eligible prospect: P Jimmy Endersby: era under 4 after July 1, 25:8 k:bb ratio after Aug 1. P...
Seems like financial concerns on other teams means a big advantages for teams with payroll flexibility (whether legitimate or just from an owner...
Today is the deadline for Rule 5 protection. My final guess is the Astros protect Tamarez, Whitcomb, Barber, and Corona. Prospects of note that...
