    He averaged 92 as a starter, touching 94 or 95 sometimes like Abom said. It's very common for pitchers who are starters to add velocity once they start coming out of the bullpen since you can throw every pitch at max effort.

    Josh Palacios quite literally looks like Trent Grisham at the plate. Lefty, no batting gloves, similar stance, face protection guard.

    Wow they're really using Ben Wagner as the sideline reporter. Pathetic from Rogers. He would be our best broadcaster in the stadium right now lol.

    That swing almost looked like it would be a pop up to the second baseman on first look, Teo has crazy power.

    Man, Palacios and Warmoth are having excellent springs. I wonder what are the odds that Warmoth makes the team out of ST as the utility man. Has he played the infield at all? Gotta think we definitely see Palacios at some point this season, maybe not right away, if an injury occurs in the outfield.

    Vladdy was touted as a generational hitting prospect though. He's also a year younger than Vaughn lmao and entering his third season of MLB baseball. Vlad was putting up all-time great comparable minor league performances while Vaughn was in his senior year of high school.

    It's not good business for teams to disclose player physicals like in Paxton and Kluber's case. It's entirely possible Paxton failed one of his physicals and this is why he signed back with the Mariners for such a small amount, but no team is going to come out and say that, certainly not the Mariners, while the player is currently healthy. In Yates' scenario maybe someone disclosed/leaked this info knowing that he was going to miss the season anyway as damage control, not that anyone should be outraged that a relatively cheap high risk, high reward signing went into one of the expected buckets.

    Fair deal. I think I like it more for McCullers' side given his previous durability concerns. $85M guaranteed when he's probably one more injury away from potentially not cracking $20M in career earnings is a deal he should take every time. On the other hand, I'm sure the Astros will gladly live with him topping out at 125-150 very good innings a season at $17M per as long as he's healthy for the playoffs.

    I don't really get the ownage here. It's not like the statcast data is the only thing they're using according to Passan's tweet. So if your spin rate suddenly jumps up by 10% on all your pitches from one year to the next, like it did for Bauer, then that would raise a red flag. Otherwise they'll just use the other random sampling methods to find the foreign substances. I'm sure those using pine tar or other substances will simply learn to hide it better.

    Fangraphs added some nice quality-of-life features to their player stat pages. xStats are now available in the statcast portion, with xwOBA appearing in the default player dashboard for hitters, replacing avg EV (not sure if I love this but nice to have regardless). Importantly, and I can't believe this was only added just now, they've finally included player season ages in the main dashboard. Long overdue addition.

    I don't think there's any way we have $15M to spend, otherwise we would have signed or traded for some expensive one year contracts a lot earlier than this. We probably have at most like a $5-10M rainy day fund remaining which might include in-season/trade deadline acquisitions.

    Porcello for 1/5 time, get it done Ross.
  13. Orgfiller
    Yates is done for the year.
  14. Orgfiller
    Rowdy is never seeing a lefty during the regular season.
  15. Orgfiller
    Jonathan Davis is nearly 29 and his options are starting to run out. If they like him he's not really the type of guy you keep down to continue getting "regular ABs".
  16. Orgfiller
    Bergen basically started pumping fastballs down the middle when s*** hit the fan and he struck everyone out.
  17. Orgfiller
    Hiraldo cranked that pitch at his neck like 400 feet to the pull side, god damn.
  18. Orgfiller
    Good stuff Riley Adams. That's some easy oppo power.
  19. Orgfiller
    Understandable that they wouldn't. It's not like they were in the same division recently or anything.
  20. Orgfiller
    Warmoth has been looking great throughout camp. Would be awesome if he could carve out a major league career still, even if it's just as a utility bench player.
  21. Orgfiller
    This booth is insufferable.
  22. Orgfiller
    Not bad for a 19 year old kid to drive an Alvarado fastball the other way with some authority. Hopefully the wrist is okay.
  23. Orgfiller
    The fastball velo wasn't really there yet but the splitter is just as dirty as it's always been for Yates.
  24. Orgfiller
    That one's gone without the wind. Nice rip by Jano.
  25. Orgfiller
    That's a dart from Jansen to second.
