  1. Thank God I never listen to those shows.
  2. I'd expect it'll be low for a few weeks, but fortunately he doesn't rely on velocity to be effective. I really think we'd be best off to DL him for 2 weeks though and give him a chance to get up to speed properly.
  3. Interesting that Morrow said he has only seen the new protective headgear in pictures online. You'd think that samples would have been provided to teams so that all players could try them on and get a close look at them. I'd say that's a huge failure by MLB and the manufacturer.
  4. Could be a result of the Delabar program, if the pitcher's arms feel a little different in the early going.
  5. I don't care about the highschool arms, but I like the Cards approach of selecting good hitters and worrying about where to play them later much more than selecting great athletes who can't hit and hoping to teach that to them. Get good bats early and draft great athletes later.
  6. At least our outfielders aren't airmailing the backstop or trying to pick someone off in the dugout. Those last two throws were beautiful.
  7. Morrow is struggling with command clearly, but his stuff actually looks pretty good. You have to wonder if the added bulk in the offseason might take him a little while to adjust to.
  8. I don't think more players, but maybe more serious injuries.
  9. Maybe, but outside of Rasmus there's pretty much nothing on the FA list at center next year, and if we look to trade it's going to cost us pitching. I just hope we don't try to carry Gose AND Goins as starters in the same year.
  10. Yes. They need to develop an organizational approach and make sure it's a single message throughout the minors.
  11. I suspect that's the plan though, that Rasmus will walk and Gose will take over CF. If that's what is going to happen, then it makes sense to have Gose get full playing time in AAA.
  12. He was apparently more of that kind of batter a few years ago, then the Jays decided he should be able to hit for some power and wanted him to swing at everything and learn to hit home runs (not kidding). He may or may not have been at a different spot in his development anyway, but I place blame for the power bat stuff on the Jays rather than him.
  13. Revisionist history lol. Now we know why he wanted to create the thread
  14. Or it might mean that JPA isn't cut for another 12 weeks...
  15. He may play 10 years in the majors and never hit a home run too lol. He also puts up disturbingly few doubles. I considered taking him in the BBDL, but wasn't sure his bat would contribute enough to be worth it.
  16. There appears to be some interesting results when you look further at his numbers within the zone last year, in particular the noticeable reduction in fastballs in the lower third and the dramatic increase in sinker/cutter usage. It seems that contributed to the higher SwStr% but also more meatballs.
  17. It's too bad we couldn't have sent them Izzy for Lombardozzi...
  18. He probably isn't worth that much, but it depends on what else you can get and whether it can be better spent other ways.
  19. I'd probably keep Mauer, since he should qualify at C but get full playing time.
  20. It's been in a few of the other threads, but it should have been here instead.
  21. I suppose you could change both (losses to W/L ratio and K/9 to Starts). That might balance things better. If your draft is in a few hours though, it might be too late to do it this year.
  22. I think I'll pass this year (I want to make sure I have enough time to put into the leagues I'm in), but I'll reconsider next year. I think maybe I'd consider changing losses rather than k/9 to something like Starts or possibly even W/L ratio.
  23. If maicer takes over 2nd, we might have the worst at both spots...
