  1. http://insider.espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/9315120/oscar-taveras-st-louis-cardinals-new-no-1-prospect-baseball-mlb Can someone with ESPN Isider post this? Aaron Sanchez was #19 on Law's preseason list, I'm wondering where he is now.
  2. I don't know how you f*** up three consecutive can't-miss big bat prospects (Smoak, Ackley, Montero). Hitting in Safeco must really mess with these kids' approaches.
  3. He's the Raptors play-by-play guy and he's excellent.
  4. Devlin is a consummate professional and has made a seamless transition to baseball. He was born to do play-by-play.
  5. Can someone fill me in why Matt Devlin is suddenly doing play-by-play every game? I'm not complaining, it's a treat. Just wondering where the f*** Buck is.
  6. I'm willing to blow my prospect wad for a top of the rotation starter. If you're thinking about shopping a great arm and have any interest in Buxton, Giolito or Ventura, hit me up. I'm willing to trade MLB pieces too but would rather trade prospects/picks primarily.
  7. I actually expect Lawrie to be demoted soon.
  8. I'm heading for a 7-7 split with NJH in a league where I own Miggy & M. Carpenter and he owns Corbin. Oddly enough, we are also playing each other in Nox's ottoneu league where I own Corbin and he owns Miggy & Carpenter.
  9. Height/durability is the knock on him. The FB and CB are both K pitches.
  10. Why do you care about Ventura's change? He throws 100 and has a plus curve, that's enough already. He really just needs a show-me changup. Moreover, Ventura will probably debut this year, whereas you won't see Heredia til 2016 if he even makes it. BTW I didn't say Heredia was a fringe prospect, I said he's a fringe Top 100 guy. He's a legit prospect.
  11. Ventura has better stuff than Heredia and is far more advanced. He can touch 100 and has a hammer curve, if anything, Heredia is the one that lacks an out pitch. We're talking about a slam dunk Top 50 guy vs a fringe Top 100 in short season ball.
  12. At least you didn't call him Tavares. f***ing Canadians.
  13. If the draft was today, would you pass on Ventura for him though?
  14. Nobody can spell this poor bastard's name right.
  15. No Ks; too far away. If you can't strike out guys in Low-A, it's not really an interesting fantasy profile. At the time, Kevin Goldstein had been fellating him a lot and talking him up, putting him in a troika with Cole and Taillon. I had him neck and neck with Ventura at my pick, but there was more uncertainty about whether Ventura could start at the time. Now he looks like a stud.
  16. Oddly enough, I would have taken Luis Heredia instead if he hadn't been popped the pick before me. Some nice dumb luck for me there.
  17. Byron Buxton - Has probably had the biggest value increase since the draft, likely #1 prospect next year. Gary Sanchez - Having a nice year; traded for Zimmerman. Giolito - Still love the upside, should get back on the mound later this season. Marisnick - Could help out next year, I still buy 20/20 potential, with CF eligibility that's pretty nice. Yordano Ventura - The steal of Round 5, dominating AA and looking like he can stick in the rotation. Richie Shaffer - Disappointing college bat; I could cut him but I don't need to clear space.
  18. Davis is a goddamn monster. Imagine that current hit/power tool playing in Arlington? The Rangers have got to be kicking themselves for that deal, it might end up being worse than the Bautista trade.
  19. Lol, love the cut to a shot of Andrew Stoeten filling his face. Buck of course didn't recognize him.
  20. I doubt it. Several of them made sidelong comments about the coaching change this offseason and backhanded remarks about the approach. Theres a reason why the change was made.
  21. Murphy didn't develop Edwin's 2012 swing, this has been established repeatedly.
