He's set to pitch next in the WBC.

Not a bad ranking honestly.

I know everyone here shits on Texas, but that’s not a bad bet 25-1 for fun anyway

naw, that's still a massive reach given the injury potential of their rotation. Not to mention their lineup is still thin as f*** aside from Seager and Semien.

 

I think the best value play there is the Rays.

Based on what people were here were saying about the Angels a few days ago, seems like they might be a good bet.

I agree with the order pretty much completely but disagree with the massive odds gap between Yankees and Jays

[Virgil_Hiltz]

Damn. I had never even thought about what they make turf from

But nothing on the NFL Eagles who played on this same turf? Could it be the heat from summer that makes the turf emit these toxins while the Eagles play in cooler/cold temperatures?

Did the Eagles practice there?

 

If not, then a Phillies player in one year would have been on the turf more than most Eagles players in their careers

Yankees pitchers are dropping like flies!

He'll be back in July of 2024

Every one of these changes is an improvement to the quality of the product, probably

Rodon’s UCL is fine, according to Cashman.

He's in denial about giving a dude with a glass arm 170 million this past offseason. Right on the heels of trading for a guy with a bum shoulder lol.

[L54]

You’d have to be high to give someone with Rodon’s injury history that term and length. Would want nothing to do with that contract

[Terminator]

The Yankees traded for Montas, Efross and Trivino at the 2022 deadline and then signed Rodon and Kahnle this offseason and all 5 of them are hurt lol

[G-Snarls]

Yankees starting the season without

 

Cortes

Rodon

Montas

 

Hopefully Jays can take advantage in April

[Terminator]

I'm sure New York sports radio is behaving completely rational right now.

Cortes is expected to be ready for his first turn through the rotation

The BABIP on groundballs is really encouraging. I think it will make the most positive difference in the viewing experience. The number of atom balls that should have been singles grew more frustrating to watch with each passing year.

Damn, you just hate to see it. Except when it’s the Bankees

Yanks falling apart in spring training. Sin.

Yeah all the jays fans whining we didn’t sign Rodon can get bent. Dude probably has 2 healthy years over the duration of that contract

I wanted Rodon, but for 2 years max, lol.

I'm not going to get too too happy about it until I know our starting 5 is healthy to start the season tho

Rodon is the pitcher version of Buxton

Accurate.

I hadn't heard of this, but I'm very intrigued. I'd love to see more two way players in the game, it's fun!
