  1. Hamilton and Alcides Escobar batting 1 + 2 in the Royals lineup is going to be killer next year.
  2. Joe Carter being on the nominee list might be more erroneous as Baines getting inducted. A short list of players with more career WAR than Carter includes: Carlos Pena, Rickie Weeks Jrs, Mookie Wilson, Colby Rasmus, Royce Clayton, Erick Aybar, David Freese and Pablo Sandoval.
  3. I was just reading who's on the Dinosaur Committee... Roberto Alomar Bret Blyleven Pat Gillick Tony LaRussa Greg Maddux JOE f***ING MORGAN John Schuerholz Ozzie Smith Joe Torre Al Avila Paul Beeston Andy MacPhail Jerry Reinsdorft + 3 media guys that I’ve never heard of (I’m shocked Jeff Blair isn’t on this). Greg Maddux is too bright to vote for Harold Baines.
  4. According to Jim Bowden of The Athletic, the Royals are close to a deal with free agent outfielder Billy Hamilton. Mike Napoli announced his retirement as a player on Saturday.
  5. Don't forget Mike Cameron, Brian Giles, Matt Holliday, Jason Giambi, Granderson, Kinsler, Tony Phillips, Mark Grace, Matt Williams, Ellis Burks, Johnny Damon, Delgado, Tony Fernandez, Brett Butler, Julio Franco, Devo, David Justice, Ray Lankford, Chuck Knoblauck, Reggie Sanders, Jason Kendell, Steve Findley and Gary Gaetti Awesome!
  6. Why the f*** is there a veteran's committee in the first place?
  7. "Agent Scott Boras has confirmed to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport that Oklahoma QB Kyler Murray will not pursue a career in professional football." I read he has to give back the $4.66M signing bonus in full to Oakland if he wants to pursue football.
  8. Harold Baines? This is f***ing insanity.
  9. Boras confirmed he isn't going to the NFL. At 5'9" - it's unlikely he'd succeed there anyway.
  10. 'women'
  11. 4 years, $67.5M
  12. Stat-scouting - he certainly seems like an interesting 'throw in'.
  13. Isn't this just a matter of them rebuilding and need to add assets? Maximize the return for Goldy as there's no point keeping him through a rebuild and/or risking injury or him signing elsewhere? I kinda think this is the market for good players without much control. Teams aren't giving up prospects anymore.
  14. Willie Mays is 20th all time in wRC+. You fail.
  15. Rendon, Turner, Zimmerman & Gomes on the IF isn't too shabby either. "IF" they can stay healthy and Robles can step right in and produce, they "should" be a good team.
  16. The Nats love their deferrals don't they? Just so much risk in this deal IMO.
  17. 6 years - $125M
  18. Maybe Seattle has adopted this new metric - Carlos Santana was 46th last year.
  19. Holy s*** - Mark McGwire is better than Babe Roth!
  20. Those links don't seem to work....and where's the leaderboard?
  21. Good point - I must prefer going off what Tabby 'sees'
  22. When did he change his launch angle / swing?
  23. I wonder if they'd be interested in Martin. They said they might spend money foolishly this year and could use a catcher... For the record - I'm perfectly fine with keeping Martin this year to mentor Danny - but if we could get something for him, while giving him the opportunity to start for a contender....then so be it.
  24. Can we fill in the blanks for a second now...what's the Phillies lineup look like? C - Alfaro / Knapp 1st - Hoskins 2nd - Hernandez SS - Segura 3rd - Franco LF - CF - Hererra RF - Then they have Kingery, Nick Williams, Altherr kicking around. Obviously Harper would move into RF. If they sign Machado - Franco moves to the bench. Kingery (and/or Franco?) could probably play LF unless they think that would hurt his long term development as a middle infielder. I guess Kingery could just serve as the super utility guy also. I wonder if they'll be looking to move Franco for a catcher, as they can't expect a repeat out of Alfaro (.400+ BABIP, 36 K%)
