  1. RP Hutchison in the September / the playoffs could be fun. He'd probably be a very good reliever, 94-97 with that big slider. Maybe a lot like Liam Hendriks.
  2. The exciting, big ticket trade would be CarGo + McGee - both controllable for 2017 as well. One option that I would bang a drum for if I were in the front office would be Nathan Eovaldi. Rough results = potential value buy Can provide SP insurance especially for 2017, but for 2016 I would be most excited about what he could do in relief. 100mph!
  3. Beltran would be a good add, but nothing very impactful. I bet he would be a 0.5 WAR upgrade on the current roster, rest of season. Now, that doesn't account for his veteran presents. Who knows how much they would be worth.
  4. Carlos? He was 20 when he hit Dunedin. I actually went and looked at every Dunedin roster since the mid 90s and all I could find was Robinson Diaz, who had 10 games in 2002. I'm guessing Dunedin just needed a catcher in some emergency situation because he only had a .688 OPS in rookie ball that season. Medicine Hat!
  5. Dunedin at 18 would basically mean that he's a slam-dunk top 25 prospect at that point.
  6. I love the #want Vlad the best Judging from Cleveland though, Shapiro systems tend to be of the "slow and grow" variety. Although they were aggressive with Lindor the phenom, so there's that.
  7. lol, he would be the youngest player in the Northwest league by like.... 1.5 years under #2. Actually, all of low A ball. Even if he plays 2017 in Vancouver he could be the youngest player in the entire league.
  8. his hand tendons are freakishly tight!
  9. holy f*** http://www.baseballamerica.com/minors/kopech-hits-105-mph-against-wilmington/#KjZQdiYimWfmWClK.97
  10. The White Sox are on a developmental island, that's for sure. Club developmental philosophies: White Sox - promote the first rounder ASAP Twins - strikeouts are overrated Texas - acquire all the Mexicans and let them cook Rays - Computer says do this... Dodgers - $$$$$$$$$$$$$ Seattle - hmmmm, how can we ruin this promising hitter? Angels - prospects? huh? Yankees - run 'em through the hype machine, boys. Cardinals - show them the Cardinal way (waves magic wand) Giants - sprinkle Bochi dust on recent promotions Rockies - no f***ing idea how to do anything Toronto - maybe Keith Law will like... this guy!
  11. Thanks, nastrodamus
  12. Trades are subject to medical reviews. Boston wouldn't move Espinoza if Pomz' shoulder was f***ed.
  13. The main posters are generally the same, and the group is slow to evolve, but this board is like a major league roster. It's highly competitive and hard to break through. And if it wasn't like that, the content quality would suffer. Still happens sometimes though. Some people retire (randy) or hit the DL (kirksaw). New posters break through from time to time and it's usually a good story. We have a lot of good relief posters and pinch hitters on this board that maybe aren't regulars but should get more credit for what they do.
  14. Remember when Eduardo Rodriguez was a top of the rotation arm that Baltimore would regret trading forever?
  15. "Man, the Blue Jays look unbeatable. Better trade my best pitching prospect for a lefty that sits 91" - Dombrowski
  16. Looks like a wiffle ball. almost wonder if that ball had an internal defect
  17. They should plop whoever in CF and release Carlos Gomez Alternatively, they could bench or release Evan Gattis. Couple of plugs
  18. They changed an entire line to something corny about us all being brothers and sisters and all lives mattering to "The Great" And the guy who sang it held up an All Lives Matter sign should we just murder them next time they step foot in Canada or should we kill them instead?
  19. get the f*** out of here, no it isn't!
  20. I don't agree with this logic. Pitch grades shouldn't change based on role. I don't really get it. Also, I saw Perdomo for ten pitches and pegged him as a reliever. I should scout.
  21. Frazier is a lock for 15+ This comes down to how tired Stanton is at this point.
  22. it's not a team option. He'll be a free agent. And I don't think Toronto should even consider him
  23. Chance Stanton gassed himself in R1, like Hamilton did back in Yankee Stadium when he lost to Morneau
