Stroman getting lit up. He really does need to address the home runs.
-
I think it has to be Redmond. Happ still seems like a bit of a mess. At least we have a pretty good idea what to expect from Redmond, and that's a legit #4/5 guy who gives you a chance to win games. On the plus side for this game, Melky is looking very encouraging. Single, Double, stolen base. He might just be back!
-
Well, this game takes RR out of the running I'm guessing. 2.2 innings, 3 hits, 3 runs, 5 walks, 0 k's. 3 caught stealing and a pickoff lol.
-
There's Rickey lol. HBP, home run, walk. (I actually am cheering for him)

Morrow moved to end of Blue Jays’ rotation
Abomination replied to Angrioter's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
In general I think a person with the Ace label should have the durability as well, in addition to an elite track record. I would label only a handful of guys as Aces around the league, and would consider them to be different than a #1 starter. I would consider Strasburg to be a #1 starter who could prove himself to be an ace. It's all just semantics though, and since there is no set definition everyone has their own opinion. -
I kind of think you should be able to get more for those two (Perez imo you should keep, and trade Grandal or Ruiz).

Rosenthal: Pitching injuries piling up around MLB
Abomination replied to jaysfan2014's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
There's a big difference between straight underhand and submarine. Submarine I believe puts at least as much stress on the elbow as a normal slot does (probably more), and the elbow is where the bulk of injuries seem to be right now. -

And the A's would probably turn him into a 5 war guy and pawn him off for massive return at the deadline. -
$19 seems horribly high for Belt the more I look at it, but I guess it all depends on who else he can get. It's better than sitting with $19 left over at the end...

The problem is the small data set. Narrowing the focus further makes it even worse. -
Belt might be iffy then if next year's cost is $19 (or did you already add next year's inflation into the costs?)
-
Desmond, Craig (amazing value there), Carp, Belt, and Lee imo. My projections like Venable, but I'm not sure I'd do it. (does the keeper add $5 / year, or just once to designate?)

It seems like pitchers in the past were more of the David Wells breed - show up in spring training after not touching a ball for 4 or 5 months, throw nine or ten innings, and you're good to go. Many pitchers today seem to throw (at least periodically) most of the off-season in between their constant high intensity workouts. I have to wonder if they simply aren't giving their arms enough time to recover and heal from the previous season. -
There was nothing significant. For some God unknown reason Stanton managed to drop to JFaS at 17 (like he needs the help), Wilko made a few odd selections (although they seemed to be pre-ranked there by him so I guess they were the players he wanted), and Ang kept picking owned prospects and had to be smacked. Overall it actually went nice and smooth I thought.

It could be worse ... it could be Jack Z running the team. They seem to think poor defenders are a market inefficiency in Seattle these days.
-
Sanchez needs to save the houdini acts for the regular season!
-
This is an officiating gong show.
-
What the hell ever happened to home court advantage?
-
No reason to give the Rays extra looks at him. We play them 18 times during the season as it is.
-
A few more outings like that and he might develop RR syndrome. As long as all the pitchers get in the needed work, doesn't really matter if he's in the big league camp or not though. The extra time with the players is probably worth while in case he gets called up during the season anyhow.
-
Maybe a good thing this one isn't televised. That's a cringe worthy stating lineup, and looks like the results to match.
-
I'm not thrilled as a St. Louis fantasy owner either.
-
Interesting. For anyone wondering, it's free to audit it online.
-
Yeah, he shouldn't be yapping at all. Still, it does make one wonder about our clubhouse culture as there has been those whispers in the past.
-
Yeah, the counts aren't necessary (although I don't care one way or the other). A quick summary after each batter is great though!
