  1. Not really since he doesn't play SS or 3rd. Clement should basically be taking IKF's role. I agree that selling high on him would be wise.
  2. He's probably Kiermaier's replacement at a fraction of the cost.
  3. Right? Next year might be a team of Stars and a bunch of interchangeable guys. Might not be the worst strategy in the world if we can land 2 impact bats.
  4. Wow, that's a great return.
  5. That's actually a mildly interesting return. With them absorbing the salary, that should give us a shot at getting under. Fangraphs says we're at 241.8M and we need to get under 237.
  6. Sounds like Turner has probably been traded (was just pulled from the game).
  7. Fortunately it looks like it just got his nose and brim of the hat. Clearly unintentional, but this has to be the end for Rodriguez.
  8. I think I'd actually be pretty happy with Wrobleski for Kikuchi.
  9. I wonder who the new closer will be come tomorrow? We may very well see Zach Pop closing games the rest of the way.
  10. I don't think the #1 pick to the highest non-playoff team makes sense, but I do think that all teams that miss the playoffs should be in the lottery with a (slight) advantage to the higher placed teams. I think it would vastly improve the quality of the game late in the year, but still allow teams to get a look at young players. I've thought that's a model that would make sense in our fantasy leagues too.
  11. If Langford hadn't gotten his hand on that, it might have been inside the park
  12. This trade seems fine to me. All 3 of those guys look like they have some potential. Hopefully one of the three will become something interesting. I'll miss Jano.
  13. Poor decision by Springer to dive for that. He had no shot and probably could have held the runner to a double.
  14. I'm fine with Cabrera being non-tendered, but for whatever it's worth he's actually been pretty good for the last 2 months. I could see someone desperate squinting a little and taking him off our hands (maybe with us eating a little money). Non-tendering Romano would be silly. Not sure about Swanson. As far as Little goes, DOES he suck? He's put up a 3.18 xFIP so far this year and similar in AAA. He's probably not a front-line arm, but nothing wrong with that as a 2nd lefty.
  15. This is a stupid trade. We're basically getting organizational fillers for a guy who isn't making anything for the next few years and is a tweak away from being very good. I can't imagine a deal like this wouldn't have been available in the offseason regardless of how the rest of this season went.
  16. I don't know if it can get much worse. I wouldn't mind seeing what Fluharty can do though.
  17. I like this. Clase has elite speed and base stealing ability. If he can manage to hit at all, he could be a nice find. At worse, a cheap 4th outfielder with good situational utility might still be a nice get. I don't think we could reasonably expect a high end prospect for a non closer, even if they are a good one. Hopefully we didn't eat any money in the deal.
  18. The Phillies probably win in that they'll likely get better use of Hays than the O's will of Dominguez (I assume he'll take over LF with Marsh moving to CF). Dominguez wasn't getting high leverage opportunities with the Phillies. I'm not sure why he would fill a meaningful role with the O's. Pache is probably pointless. They'd have been better off paying $1M or so and getting Kiermaier who can at least steal a base along with the defense.
  19. Hell of an attempt by Schneider.
  20. I still remember them intentionally walking Bonds with the bases loaded rather than facing him.
  21. That swing had some seriously bad intentions! I haven't seen a Blue Jay swing that hard in a long time.
  22. So good to see Springer actually turning on balls again. 2 months ago that would have been a weak ground ball to 2nd.
  23. There's a good chance his problems at the plate are related to the injury and his unwillingness to miss games and deal with it before it became a bigger problem.
  24. The bats have looked a little better since they seem to have abandoned the hitting approach from earlier in the year. Guys are starting to actually hit the ball with some authority. It wouldn't surprise me.
  25. 6th hardest hit ball this year. Vladdy also owns the 5th hardest hit.
