Ugh he's pounding the bottom edge of the zone. -
TJ House is junk! I've got $500 on Toronto tonight. The real question is not who will win, it is how much will the Jays win by?
-
Mookie at least got 60s on his run and field (and hit, obviously). Travis is/was kind of all hit and fringe average everywhere else.

Exactly

By next year do you mean September? -
yes?
-
By "equally good" do you mean someone who also has a .428 OPS?

And North could write Butt Scouting, where he has a sniff and tells us what he had for breakfast
-
You could actually have a regular feature called Stat Scouting. And Dinger could counter with Scout Scouting.

We should kill Breaking Blue and start our own fantasy blog... The niche will be deep leagues and OBP leagues. Death to the shallow 5x5. Boxy can write love letters to Greg Bird and Matt Olson, Dinger can write about how prospects suck and Pujols will be good forever, North can write endlessly about speculative holds guys and Sunday steamers getting spot starts, and I can write about actually useful stuff.

I know it's semantics but is Malkin even an "elite" player? Point per game, sure, but I can think of a lot of guys I would want before him.

that's fair

no.

Every catcher in history thinks about / has thought about / has tried to get better at receiving.

The Dioner Navarro mold

Yes please. Pinto is killing it. Take him off of C and he might be a legit DH.

Nice. It will be interesting to see what DRA means in terms of luck in small sample sizes. Interesting that they have bad ERAs and FIPs but decent DRA.
-
100% The bullpen is fine IMO. Osuna, Castro, Cecil, Loup, Hendriks, Estrada should be solid as a group. No concerns with any of them so far. All of the SP have essentially been replacement level or worse, lol.
-
I dunno, maybe it's just hard to euphemism up "uhhh.... be better and throw really hard again, plz".
-
It's about talent. Delabar was a sack of s*** in 2014 and until his K rate is up around 10+ per 9 innings in Buffalo, he's probably still that sack of s***.

"Around Baseball"

I might roll your statement back a little bit but you're pretty much right. It's the vesting option for 2016 that's the killer. He gets $13M guaranteed if he finishes 48 games this year. Some team might be wiling to pay around $15M total for him, but that's with giving up nothing, essentially his FA value (comp Balfour, K-Rod, and Romo). So at a minimum I think Philly needs to eat about $11M (including what they've already paid him this year) to get rid of him, and that's just to save money, so they wouldn't get any players back.
-
Philly would give Papelbon to any team that would take his contract, lol.
