    Mike Scioscia stepping down after 2018. 1 dinosaur down, many more to go. https://www.mlb.com/news/mike-scioscia-to-step-down-as-angels-manager/c-288938414

    You can bet Morales was placed on waivers at 12:01 AM August 1
  3. John_Havok
    Lots of largemouth around here that's for sure
  4. John_Havok
    Nice bait
  5. John_Havok
    I believe that's "ravaged"
  6. John_Havok
    Im quite sure he went to the plate determined to pop up. I'd say he executed his plan perfectly. +1 for Drury
  7. John_Havok
    That's not quite true. 18 in Korean (English pronunciation is "ship-pal") has a similar pronunciation for their word that they use as the equivalent for f***... "shi-bal" Still, that's 100% why he wears 18... it has to be. It's way too coincidental to be anything else. And it's still awesome.

    This FO knows how to get rid of Morales if they really want to, but some team (AL only given his lack of every baseball skill needed to play elsewhere) would have to be desperate. I doubt we see either Morales or Martin gone before the end of 2019. Maybe Morales has somewhat of a bounceback second half 2018/1st half 2019 and maybe some AL club will get desperate, but I doubt it. Hell, they may even bite the bullet and DFA him if he hovers around replacement/sub-replacement level..... but again, I doubt it. Martin is moveable next year at the deadline if he's even half competent with the bat next season simply due to his defensive reputation and vetrin presents.

    Middle one. Tulo, Kendrys and Martin really create the impossibility if a true youth movement (thankfully the latter 2 will be gone after next season at the latest). They'll try to pick up a few warm bodies on the cheap to fill some gaps in the rotation, pen and bench that they will hope to flip at the deadline and next year will look very similar to this year. Then 2020 will be the first true youth movement year with Tulo's corpse still being paid 20 million, with lots of leeway to add.

    Fangraphs updated board with jays post trade deadline rankings https://www.fangraphs.com/scoutboard.aspx?draft=&type=&pos=&team=tor
  12. John_Havok
    Yup. If he retired he would forfeit his salary through the end of 2020
  13. John_Havok
    Kinda of a weird little hop step there when he's gearing up to throw
  14. John_Havok
    Check that.... 19-0 in the 5th
  15. John_Havok
    In a vacuum..sure. But, given the money in baseball it's arguable he is underpaid. Baseball has guaranteed contracts agreed upon through collective bargaining. It's fine not to like that. Nobody held a gun to the Rockies when they offered it to him, nor the Jays when they willingly traded for it.
  16. John_Havok
    It's not really about greed, it's about getting what he is contractually obligated to receive.
  17. John_Havok
    Yup. Unless he gets a 100% buyout ... may as well enjoy his 60 day DL status for the next 3 seasons.
  18. John_Havok
    Yeah, retirement announcement is wishful thinking. Very very wishful
  19. John_Havok
    I haven't actually rooted for a guy to never play baseball again...until now.
  20. John_Havok
    Please announce retirement. .....
  21. John_Havok
    The Nats are “making it known to other teams” that Harper “is indeed available,” per MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand (via Twitter). Can't really imagine there's much to this given the lack of media circus around what would easily be the biggest trade in recent history.
  22. John_Havok
    Mariners have added Adam Warren from the Yankees and Zach Duke from Minnesota
  23. John_Havok
    I don't think he needs to get flipped. He still has 2 more seasons of control after 2018. He could be the lucky guy who gets to be the "closer" during the re-tooling period. That said, if he is flipped for more prospects, that's fine too.
  24. John_Havok
    Josh James and ... Corbin Martin. Pure guess
  25. John_Havok
    If you're at all curious, you should check out his exit velo, barrel percentage and hard hit percentage. He's actually been slightly unlucky in his results so far.
