There used to be three drafts: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_League_Baseball_draft

Yeah I'm not really too thrilled about having to give these guys away, ideally I would keep all of them and punt all of my waiver picks. That's what I get for hoarding though, and the early promotions to guys like Honeywell and Allard really hurt my roster flexibility.
-
I do, I'm just waiting to hear back from silvergun since he messaged me first about Villar earlier this afternoon, as a courtesy. I'll wait until 10 one way or another.
-
Confirmed.

Steve Pearce to birthday boy (Boxcar) for MiLB 52.
-
I've been trying lol.
-
I've added all of my players. I'm promoting Walker Buehler and cutting Anthony Alford from my farm which puts me at 12 prospects. MLB cuts: Frankie Montas Francis Martes Drew Steckenrider Michael Feliz Kolby Allard Jonathan Villar Nicky Delmonico Justin Williams Robert Stephenson Shane Carle Luis Ortiz Steve Pearce Yonny Chirinos Edit: I lied, I had 21 players. Add Danny Salazar to the cuts list.

Pompey with a dinger in his first AB. -
Well it's two things. If the team is good enough, it doesn't really matter if one of your players sits out a number of games for injury prevention, teams are already doing this to their own star players albeit to a lesser extent. But to touch on your second point, the Raptors are doing everything possible to get him to re-sign in the offseason, so if that takes a bit of ass kissing and allowing him to sit out a bunch of games so that he's content and well rested for the playoffs then so be it.

Excellent news.
-
If you expect any pitcher with average or below-average stuff to become Mark Buehrle, you're gonna have a bad time.
-
He literally projects as a 4.5-5.0 ERA this season. I'm not sure if he has "obviously above average stuff", his swinging strike rate was a below average 7.8% with a groundball rate that was above average but not elite. His K and BB rates literally matched what he had done the rest of the year at AAA, the MLB is a different animal so expecting him to maintain his MiLB rates from the lower minors when he wasn't always young for the level is shortsighted. I like Borucki, I think he can and will be a serviceable #4/5 starter for us, but you might experience disappointment if you expect him to be consistently a sub 4 FIP pitcher.

It's only available on audio streams.

It's not that surprising. It's extremely common among scouts to classify pitching prospects who have good stuff but below average or worse command as future relievers. Multi-inning relievers are now the flavour of the month it seems so instead of just future closer we're going to see a lot more of those roles thrown out by the scouting community to guys who fit that trope and don't have durability concerns. The Jays are absolutely not giving up on SRF as a starter any time soon, barring a catastrophic season I would be quite surprised if the thought of him transitioning to the bullpen becomes a real possibility this year.
-
Demar with the classic Demar play in crunch time LOL. He must have really been moved by the welcome reception.
-
The Twins are having an excellent offseason IMO.
-
Also fun fact, at this stage in his career Jason Heyward has more 3+ WAR seasons (5 to 2 - yes, TWO), 4+ WAR seasons (4 to 1), and 5+ WAR seasons (2 to 0) than Harold Baines. If we take their best seasons and order them, Heyward has 5 of the top 6. Heyward has played 9 seasons to Baines' 22. Thanks, Today’s Game Era Committee!
-
Actually yeah. Even if the team likes LGJ a lot, we'd be adding a decent cheap player who adds vetrin presents, happens to be Cuban and an elite defender at short so in theory he could act as a mentor of sorts on the defensive end. Justifiable move from several perspectives.
-
Teams simply don't pay for defense, Jason Heyward being the most notable exception and I imagine the Cubs had hopes that he could return to his rookie hitting form. Shocking that he can't get a guaranteed contract though, wow.
-
Man Colorado is really unoriginal when it comes to team names.
-
Soto projects for a 140 wRC+ with elite OBP at 20 years old, Puig at 126, and yeah hurr durr wRC+ isn't a real fantasy stat nerd but it's definitely a valid claim.
-
The Mariners write-up doesn't even bring up Erik Swanson lmao.
-
Lmao @ the Rockies
-
Lmao, three of the top teams in the world played today - and Lyon, who are a young and exciting club - and both games ended in draws. That sucks buddy, did Davies play at least?

Opening Day is still huge for baseball fans and the city enjoys it, but a lot of the people that go to the stadium on Opening Day are not baseball fans; lots of casuals, bandwagonners if it applies, corporate people, and those who literally only go to get drunk and leave by the 6th inning or become a public disturbance.
