  1. Sleeper: Josh Winckowski Bust: TJ Zeuch New Legit Guy: Adam Kloffenstein
  2. Plus, by my understanding, this loophole was patched by MLB so it won't happen again. Luciano was a unique circumstance. Other players like Cordoba and Wang who got plucked out of rookie ball have been completely outmatched talent wise, I don't think this is going to become a common occurrence. Luciano probably won't be much better than Wang was when he was with the Brewers in 2014. I get that the raw stuff seems good but this whole scenario doesn't seem worth it to me. Luciano is a pretty fringe starting pitcher prospect, it's not like we are getting Forrest Whitley here. Is he really good enough to justify using a 25 man roster spot for all of 2019, then hoarding a valuable 40 man roster spot for 2020 to 2022? I suppose they could just DFA him but then you run the risk of another team claiming him and the whole thing being a big waste of energy.
  3. This is the quality content I read Fangraphs chats for.
  4. Tatis is overrated. He's going to K at like 25% with less power than the hype expects, and the SB won't be there.
  5. Yes, called out by the guy who punched himself in the face last year and got sent down for swearing at his manager on the mound. That guy definitely doesn't have anger problems at all.
  6. I mean yeah. If he's anything better than replacement level he's going to stick.
  7. It's not like Tatis was tearing the cover off the ball in spring training (.761 OPS). This is just dumb. But if he struggles they can just send him down and weasel their way back into an extra year of service time anyway.
  8. To the applause of everyone on twitter.
  9. Luciano has been absolutely terrible. I would send him back.
  10. That's why he said rapidly.
  11. https://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/blue-jays-see-several-bright-spots-pitching-despite-setbacks/
  12. Susan Slusser 5h Jesus Luzardo has been shut down for 4-6 weeks with a rotator cuff strain. Terrible news for the A’s. Never pitch.
  13. Tepera and Axford are both experiencing elbow pain and are being examined.
  14. Looks like Bregman gets his cake after all.
  15. Brian McCann is now up to 55 career fWAR with a peak of 9, 7, 7, 7 WAR from 2008 to 2011
  16. Imagine having 600 mil in career earnings in the bank. I can't.
  17. Alex Speier @alexspeier Sale is making his first start in a Grapefruit League game today. Opened by falling behind Albies, 2-0, then giving up a double. Three straight fastballs: 89, 90, 90 mph. Sale is donezo.
  18. Anonymous scout opinions are useless and a big pet peeve of mine. You can find a scout with any opinion to fit any narrative.
  19. I've been pounding this drum for a long time. At the last half of the draft, there is also less to lose if you miss your window. People would be more likely to send a list of picks to other managers when they are not around. I think it would greatly improve the way we draft in board leagues. I get that 1 hour is pretty quick, but something like 3 hours would work pretty well imo.
  20. Cameron Maybin arrested for a DUI.
  21. I'll co-manage it with you to help with some of the preparation.
