  1. Was it a short?
  2. Damn, don’t see Biggio chase that stuff very often.
  3. Looks like he’s just late. Needs a better timing mechnaism
  4. Oh Alford....3 straight meatballs swung through...lol
  5. Why you checking out the ump’s zone?
  6. I’m still trying to figure out why, in these early innings, when a guy throws 96mph heat that he’s chucking changeups early in the count when the Rays are clearly uninterested in swinging at the first one
  7. His curve is still a work in progress. Hatch himself only grades it as below average at the moment
  8. Jays pitch sequencing right now is driving me crazy....all these hitters getting balls 1 and 2 gifts because our guys insist on throwing first pitch sliders and changeups and end up out of the zone. The Rays know this and just spit on these first offerings.
  9. It’s not a big deal, it’s for this season only and makes total sense given the 60 game crapshoot schedule to try and recover some revenue. It’s not like this will be in place very year
  10. He was a junior, could have easily went back to school and went #1 again next year to some other team willing to give him the full slot. You don’t dick around the kind of talent that breaks Barry Bonds college records and would have set the all time College HR record if not for COVID. Why quibble over a few hundred grand when next year the slot is likely going to be even higher
  11. But in that week, he gets one start. Is that one start worth not getting 30ish starts down the road based on a possible catastrophic injury that may happen in between?
  12. 100$ - Padres under 100$ - White Sox under 100$ - Angels under 100$ - Reds over 100$ - Mets over Kinda rude to post the Orioles line for 162 game season in a 60 game format though. I’d still probably take the under
  13. Billionaires arguing with millionaires over money paid to them by people making less in their lifetimes Than they do in one season, or in some cases a few weeks. The whole process is so out of touch that both sides need to pull their heads out of their asses, or nobody will be watching at all when they come back.
  14. We were talking about command pitchers being not what you want to target in the draft, and someone said something about Halladay being a command pitcher. We discussed this briefly about how Roy would sit 92-93 but could get to 95 whenever he needed to with ease. Then Alan said something about Roy really knowing what he was good at, and I said “ Flying a plane?”
  15. You can bet there will be a lot of signings announced soon after the draft. Not really much reason to waste time dickering over money when there’s only 5-8 guys per team to sign. Chances are the majority of them already have deals agreed to verbally and just need to work out the minute details.
  16. First voice on the recording after me making the joke Alan: OMG you have to cut that!
  17. Life expectancy in 1918 was sure as f*** not 29. I don’t even need to look it up to know that’s garbage.
  18. So..... with a most likely shortened season, does that any player or manager who is currently suspended has to wait longer to start serving them? Or, does a suspension for the season just count as however many games they play this season?
  19. Who cares if opinions are unpopular. I think there’s a ton of reasons to sign Puig if it’s a 1 year deal in the 5-10 million range. There’s no such thing as a bad 1 year contract.
  20. Probably. And it will be a team like the Rays who he will kill it for, and be flipped at the deadline for someone who turns into an allstar for the next 7 years.
  21. Fired up today, 100% on point. According to the LA times Puig has already turned down a 1 year/10 million dollar offer from a national league team. His camp is obviously not yet willing to sign that kind of deal.
  22. Alford isnt a trade candidate. Hes a DFA candidate that you feel lucky if theres anyone out there that wants to give you anything for him.
  23. Theyll keep getting good reviews until the first even minor contoversial word is heard from a player, then theyll be an uproar.
  24. His stuff looked great honestly. Nothing spectacular on the gun, he hit 91 once, sat 89-90 consistently with that but his splitter was really working. Pretty dull game overall but Jansens homer was legit. Was pretty windy today and wasn’t consistent so one inning it was blowing in the next it was out...the next it was left... weird day.
