  1. Age and upside. He's 28. $4M is peanuts for the potential reward of an elite reliever.
  2. Nothing is getting mixed up. 2020 stats have negligible meaning, full stop.
  3. Yeah but no COVID means E-Rod is pitching and -0.1 WAR turns positive. Among other things such as help from a full slate of minor league teams. Although Boston along with other problems doesn't have much minors pitching to draw on.
  4. Meh, the weird COVID year result. The query is for 1901 to 2020, and: 2020 Diamondbacks are #10 2020 Tigers are #12 2020 Marlins (playoff team!) are #15 2020 Rangers are #18 2021 Pirates are #21 In other words, false equivalency. Red Sox 2020 can't be called worst pitching ever based on 1/3 of a weird season.
  5. Someone needs to post that in Orioles Hangout. If it still exists Already done.... https://forum.orioleshangout.com/forums/index.php?/topic/40423-fangraphs-gives-os-00-of-making-playoffs/

    Orr would demolish Gretzky..... he was no slouch with the fists.
  7. Vogelbach is one dimensional, he has negative defensive value and is very slow. He has one above average tool, his power. Unless the power is plus plus and combined with an elite hit tool, guys like this are journeymen and wash out of baseball fairly early.

    Sure, of course, but has Brady done enough to hold the title of the greatest of all time in all sports? Because that is the debate. I don't think the differentiation between Brady and other NFL quarterbacks is sufficiently large. To be anointed the greatest of all time any sport there needs to be a greater separation. But then my brother is a huge Brady fan so I am biased against him.

    Brady playing on good teams that win championships doesn't mean he's the best of all time in any sport, lol. If this is the criteria, Mike Trout sucks.

    Yes, they are comparables. Peyton Manning has 5 NFL MVP awards, Jim Brown has 4, Brady has 3.
  11. Grichuk as a full time player is a 1.5-2 WAR guy, worth his contract.

    crikes.... can't be letting up in the NHL
  13. The bat was coming on pretty good last year, before he got hurt. The defensive issues should get resolved. In several months we might be wishing we kept Fisher, traded Grichuk for whatever.
  14. 30 save collector Raisel Iglesias reserve auction ends next Sunday noon. Opening bid must be pick 30 or better in this year's slim NPD.
  15. Anything Spanky writes is too complex for me
  16. You can't be using a fancy word like "paramount". Consider the audience.
  17. Yes I don't think it's advisable to go into the season with the current rotation. And of course, its "cheaper" to add to it through FA than an in season trade.
  18. The league rules aren't clear, but will be made clear before the draft.
  19. Of course, but only a commish can move said player to the farm.
  20. He was on last year's taxi squad or whatever it was called, which is why he doesn't have a green flag even though he has never played a MLB game. I don't know how many players are in the same situation that are unowned, but there will be some.
  21. Dingleberry eh? You dumbass. Just as an example, Vidal Brujan has never played a MLB game, and does not have a green flag. In his case, he is owned (by me) but there are other players in the same situation that are not owned. This is a COVID anomaly this year. It's not as simple as you suggest.
  22. Yes, but according to the rules any player below the threshold is a prospect.
  23. If you pick them up as an add, they have to stay on your MLB roster. If you pick them up through the draft, we might allow adding to the farm. Waiting on BTS and Org to weigh in.
  24. Not sure. 3.3 Players Eligible for the NPD Any player that is a) unowned in Fantrax, and property of an MLB team at the start of the draft is eligible to be selected in the draft. If a player signs with an MLB team after the draft has started, he is not eligible. Eligibility of players that are unowned and do not have a green flag but within the thresholds to be on a team's farm is TBD: Prospects may be kept on an MiLB roster until the following MLB conditions are met: Hitters: 1000 career PA Pitchers: 50 career X [where X = GS + 0.5(relief appearances)]
