His legs look a lot thicker than I remember him when he was drafted. Both he and Whitcomb should hit for some nice power in that league and could...
Yes he’s a pitcher now and it looks like they begun stretching him out to be a starter. He threw 40+ pitches tonight and he’s been very effective...
Leon showing some signs of life.
Kessinger’s grandpa played 16 seasons and never had a season with a wRC+ above 89. His uncle only got a few at bats but walked as much as he...
I don’t think Heaney/Gray/Eovaldi are all that likely due to regress in performance; they’ve been badass at different points in the past. The...
2B Altuve SS Pena DH Alvarez 3B Bregman RF Tucker C Diaz LF/1B Bellinger CF Meyers 1B/LF Abreu/Brantley Bench: Maldy, McCormick, Dubon That’s a...
It’s a shame there’s bad blood/personality conflict with Bellinger and the Astros, as he’s a very good fit for the roster with his ability to play...
Most likely some team is going to do something incredibly stupid to get Ohtani; I have no problem with it being the Yankees.
I definitely agree that the 2020 draft hurt the depth. I would have to go back and look to see if the Luhnow era AAA teams had a lot fewer AAAA...
This was also my perception of Browns comments. Basically “I think it’s a problem that Diaz isn’t playing more, but I don’t make out the lineup...
It’ll definitely be a sellers market, but there will be names traded. I think Bieber, Giolito, Lynn, Corbin, Smyly, and Stroman will all be...
There’s more than 5 “promising prospects” in AAA just on the AAA side. Lee, Leon, Dirden, Perez, Whitcomb, and Hamilton are all young for the...
He’s about 5 games from the 50 pa threshold and his k % is <20%. Very good sign.
Not too concerning, although of course it’s not ideal. It’s a bi-product of injuries (Whitaker), disappointment (Gaston and Lorenzo), losing 4...
Hypothetical Ohtani trades I think are plausible: Dodgers for DH Michael Busch and C Diego Cartaya Diamondbacks for SS Jordan Lawler and SP...
Wrong thread
I don’t see any possibility that Houston can match up with LA on an Ohtani trade. The Angels are in a bad spot with 2 nearly untradable players in...
No one on the Fayetteville active roster has a current batting average above .242. An absolutely brutal lack of talent. That will hopefully get...
My current 1-shot hypothetical: Astros get: OF Eloy Jimenez SP Lucas Giolito RP Kendall Graveman White Sox get: OF Colin Barber RHP Spencer...
His sample size is small and his playing time too sporadic to draw any permanent conclusions about Julks. I do think it’s a stretch to write him...
