  1. Nirmala hit another bomb today too.
  2. MLB Network (@mlbnetwork) • Instagram photos and videos WWW.INSTAGRAM.COM 6,981 likes, 209 comments - mlbnetwork on July 31, 2026: "Greg took a look inside his crystal ball... how many trades will... How awesome would the deadline be if half of these trades happen? Let's have a wild deadline with so many teams still in it. I can't wait for the playoffs.
  3. Hopefully a fresh start helps him. I think he was good in the 2nd half last year and into the playoffs and was solid in the WBC this spring? I was hoping he'd breakout with the bat. Rooting for him.
  4. I can't say I'm surprised, but I would love to see what teams would offer...
  5. He needs to show people he's healthy and hot at the plate over the next few days so we can trade his ass.
  6. That's fair - I think that's a reasonable approach if they Jays aren't offered something of value.
  7. You want to give him $23M this offseason? That's pretty big risk. Would depend on his medicals and how likely the team thinks he can regain his form.
  8. Jacob Melton, Ty Johnson, Jonny DeLuca seem like solid targets?
  9. Yeah they did - I was going to say that as well. It was an incredible run to watch. Dude was a horse.
  10. Reminds me of when they made the trade for CC...
  11. Yeah - generally. I used Pivetta simply because he was something who hadn't really had a breakout season prior to reaching free agency, but he was coming off B2B good seasons, with some indicators that there was potential for "more". I think that's what people will see in Mize. I don't think he's going to get $25M AAV. Maybe he gets 3 years $60M? I think most of the other comps thrown out there had much stronger track records and/or have already had breakout seasons.
  12. Zach Ehrhard (LAD) and Josiah Ragsdale (MIL) both seem like they have potential to play CF. I love both of those targets. Ehrhard probably has 5 OF prospects in front of him in the Dodgers system - let's steal him.
  13. I don't see comparisons to Ranger Suarez, Valdez, King, Eovaldi, etc. Pivetta's a good comp and he got 4 years $55M. I can't imagine a world where Mize gets $100M+ after posting a 2.4 and a 3.5 WAR season (this year aid by a low BABIP and HR/FB%). He's certainly not a target at that price - even if his statcast page is pretty red this year (for the first time in his career).
  14. Any thoughts on what he'll get as a FA this offseason? 3 years, $50M?
  15. I was thinking he might be a good guy to target as a FA this offseason. He hasn't really had that breakout season yet, but has pitched well the past couple of years. But the Stuff+ is dropping (89 on the year), so I'm not so sure he's a great target. But I do expect he'll be moved at the deadline and might fetch something useful.
  16. 100% - that's the game of baseball these days. You have to throw harder to have success. You risk injury for the chance to dominate and get paid.
  17. It certainly seems like a swing path issue.
  18. I'd suggest you don't get worried about this with prospects. Especially shortstops, as they have as much ability as anyone to move positions. Reports do suggest Nimmala is a legit SS, but Parker is likely moving to 3rd at some point. Bergolla could also settle in as an affordable, cost controlled utility infielder (who on average get 400-450 PA's a year anyway).
  19. I support this idea.
  20. I don't know if you're aware, but it's really you v. everyone else here - notice how nobody comes to your defense? It's only the GDT mouth breathers (that most have on ignore) that support what you say on regular basis. Those are the same people that support what you say on Reddit. The fact you suggest that anyone who disagrees with you is a boot licker is a great example of how ignorant you are.
  21. Exactly. If you prefer the conversation there better - than just stay there. @Jays24- are you trying to show us their responses to prove just show smart and accepted your views are? That's really sad. I think it's widely known and accepted that places like Reddit and Facebook are full of ignorant fans who know little to nothing about the game. If you enjoy that environment, then I'm happy for you, but don't misconstrue that as evidence that you're right and we're wrong. I think you may be overestimating how much people value and appreciate your contributions here.
  22. Tigers are promoting Max Clark to the majors. He hasn't lit up AAA, but he's the #5 prospect in baseball. Excited to see what he can become.
  23. CBS Sports (@cbssports) • Instagram reel WWW.INSTAGRAM.COM 9,139 likes, 44 comments - cbssports on July 28, 2026: "He spent $12,000 out of his own pocket to keep his MLB dream... That's an awesome story. Well done Brian Keller. Dream come true.
  24. Yeah - I see that high BABIP. It's been lower at AAA at least, without a drop in production (wRC+ and ISO remain strong). BB% is up and K% is down in AAA also - which is positive. I think he's earned a look.
  25. Chris Sale just continues to be a beast. Kudos to him. I must say I LOVE seeing star players age gracefully. It's just so fun to see them push back father time. Sale threw 48.1 innings between 2020 and 2022 and followed it up with a subpar 2023 (for his standards), but he's found that fountain of youth every since - probably solidifying his spot in the HOF. That's awesome stuff - I hope he has another couple great years in him.
