Obviously I don’t think Borucki’s HR/FB rate last year was sustainable. His IFFB% was actually below average. I buy him as the 4.5 to 5 ERA guy his 2018 xFIP and 2019 projections peg him as. No issue with him as a 5th starter, but this is not a good pitcher barring a significant improvement in skills. -
Great

I could shop Eddie Rosario for a 1B or high end SP before the cut.
-
When Buehrle was 24 he was throwing his 3rd straight above average season. When Borucki was was 24 he was a fringy 5th starter. I’m not even sure what skills you’re seeing when you watch him that make you think he’s good.
-
I feel like you’re going to be very disappointed when Borucki ends up as nothing more than a useful 5th starter.

You can make trades until the cut tomorrow at midnight.

Rosters were never locked

Well, now Fangraphs has zero writers that I care to read.

I don't really understand why Columbus does this. They're 9th place. This only really looks good for either team if Duchene re-signs with them.

Has a professional sports team in North America ever traded a pick in a win-now move that ended up being the first overall? I can't think of it ever happening.

I hate that man.

The last place Ottawa Senators have three stars in the press box waiting to be traded - the 3rd, 4th, and 5th star players to be dealt in 9 months, and are being completely dominated by New Jersey. They do not own their first round pick.

Spanky and tercet: I deleted both of your posts. Spanky, please stop engaging with tercet. Tercet, please stop posting what you believe is personal information about Spanky. Let's all just get along.

There's a decent chance Boxy trades all of my picks to right the ship after struggling out of the gate, so some other owner will have to deal with the consequences.

Divisions 2 and 4 still need to be named. Also division 3 if we're using Hurl's Bollywood Movie theme. Also, the following people need to add their players: Hurl KingFiller Littlemoon connorp BurlingtonBandit

Fair take. I'm crossing my fingers that McHugh gives me a good season in his return to the rotation though.

I accept.

I feel like Bauer’s personality would get old really fast if you knew him on a personal level.
-
f*** those were painful to watch.
-
The metrics show him as a mediocre defensive 1B, but when you watch him with the good old fashioned eye test, you really understand why he's a 4-time gold glover.

It's interesting, how much you can learn about a person from a few interactions. Like, that interview was four years ago and Hosmer was completely dismissive of Eno's attempt to discuss FB rates. Fast forward four years, and he's a replacement-level player in no small part because he doesn't put the ball in the air. Similarly, if there's anyone out there whose vetrin presents is worth 120M, he's probably not clowning on uncomfortable young reporters in the clubhouse because they didn't know what he looked like and asked questions about math.

The best part of the 'vetrin presents' argument for Hosmer is that he's apparently a giant *******.
