Grant lied about watching a minor league game that was only available on the radio many years ago, and it works well as a self-deprecating title for a podcast.

Interested in being a regular host for the podcast? Post in here.

I know this is a scouting list, but Juan Soto is 19 and projects for a 121 wRC+. That's INSANE. Not only that, he's backing it up by destroying MLB pitching. That's a Vlad level bat. And they themselves throw a 40 speed on him with a future 50 field and 55 arm, so while he's also not accruing defensive value, they expect him to be a league-average RF defender.

Careful consideration of his work since returning to FG has lead me to believe that Kiley McDaniel might be a dumb person.

Looking forward to this even though I just noticed that I was shown some pretty serious disrespect from two panel members on this page. -
While true, he was referring to forum poster Orgfiller.
-
This is great thanks
-
Mike Trout has been traded TWICE in LoD. That blows my mind.
-
Damn. It's sad, but he looks finished.
-
Looking forward to reading your experience. I'm there for 5 days and have never been before, so I want to make the most of it.
-
Interested in responses for Washington. I'll be there for work in September and am going to catch a game.
-
It shouldn’t be an fWAR leaderboard, but Trout was almost 3 fWAR better than Cabrera in 2012. The voters got it very wrong that year.

http://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-news/mike-hoffmans-longtime-girlfriend-allegedly-behind-campaign-of-harassment-against-melinda-and-erik-karlsson We're legitimately at the point were the Ottawa Senators are one of the biggest gong shows in North American pro sports history.
-
So, as if their terrible season and the whole Melnyk debacle wasn't enough, the Ottawa Senators are currently faced with the following issues: - Erik Karlsson needs to be traded or re-signed early in the offseason - They look like a terrible team next year and don't even have their 2019 1st - Their director of player development is being charged with sexually harassing a 19-year old guy. - Mike Hoffman's girlfriend has been harassing Erik Karlsson's wife on social media since the Karlssons' baby died
-
I hate that the media is constantly looking for an excuse to downplay Trout's greatness.
-
Boxy is THE stat scout. You done goofed.
-
Will still trade Yadier Alvarez for a pick here.
-
Holy crap Mike Trout is already at 5.2 fWAR. I wonder what player will win the MVP with an objectively inferior season this year. Jose Ramirez? I’m happy Betts got hurt.

“While MLB’s domestic-violence policy has served to punish offenders, it doesn’t seem to have had any effect on the number of domestic-violence incidents.” What a stupid statement. Why the f*** is it MLB’s responsibility to prevent domestic assault? Is there any other employer tasked with this? And has anyone actually determined if baseball has a domestic violence problem? Maybe baseball players actually commit less violence than regular folks when controlling for whatever one should control for when doing such a study. What a mess of an article.

The last straw with FG prospect coverage was honestly the Rays top-31. https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/top-31-prospects-tampa-bay-rays/ Released on March 29th, and look at some of the guys who apparently aren't among TB's top-31 prospects: Ryan Yarbrough - carved up AAA last year and is a league-average MLB starter currently Ronaldo Hernandez - good defensive catcher with power, contact skills, and control of the zone. Will very likely be in BP's midseason top-100 Johnny Field - isn't even mentioned in the Other Notables section, even though he's a plus runner, plus defender, and has been at least a league-average hitter at literally every level he's played as a pro. Has been worth 0.8 fWAR in 40 games this year.
-
Is there any evidence at all that Ovechkin actually changed anything about his game this year, or are people just using that narrative to explain why Washington finally won?
-
When Ohtani comes back, in what form is he more valuable to the Angels: doing what he was doing pre-injury this year, or playing exclusively as an offensive player? The bat looks legit, and getting him out there every day, while also leveraging his 70 speed and possible 70-80 arm into a full time RF spot has to be tempting. He might still be a 5-win player, only with greatly reduced injury risk.
-
Yadier Alvarez just ranked 112 on FG's top-131 prospects. I'd trade him for an upcoming pick.
-
He's 19 years old and has a wRC+ of 163 in the majors, with as many walks as strikeouts. Putting someone like Victor Robles or even Bo Bichette ahead of him is insane. There's even a pitcher ahead of him lol.
