Which is crazy if you think about it because he was one of the prospects to attend the MLB Draft live. They are trying to convince more players to come to that event. Could you imagine lol.
Will be interesting to see what team trades for him at the deadline. If they make him play Third he will have no choice. In the off-season he can tell teams he will only sign a Shortstop but right now he has no choice. The team that trades for him probably won't resign him anyway. He would be stupid not to test the market.
That trade was still worth it regardless. I am not really missing Matt Boyd that much. Hes 4th starter. That team with Price should have won the World Series. It still pisses me off we lost to Kansas City with all their luck.
We knew that going into the season. We don’t have the personal to get on base. A lot of free and aggressive swingers. Really only Granderson, Smoak, and Martin have interest in drawing walks.
Stroman was awful tonight. He just doesn’t throw strikes. Maybe he should worry less about his shimmys and work more on finishing his pitches properly. I can’t believe its July 4th and his ERA is 6.50.
If they use the stretch provision on Melo's contract. They can save 94 million on there tax bill this season. Pretty safe to say Melo won't be playing for OKC next year.
Professional sports is basically like a video games now. At least the NBA is. God awful over payments happen. Lets just hope we are on the right end of it.
I picked up Avisaíl García as a short term fantasy option while some of my Outfielders get healthy and he hasn't walked this season once. 121 plate appearances. Not a single walk. That's insane.
NHL Teams give out multi year contracts to terrible players every off-season. Its like they just want to do something for the sake of doing it. I understand 2-year deals but the amount of role players getting 4 plus years is horrendous. These players always get waived or dumped or even sent to the minors.
Its pretty depressing if the best story line anyone can come up with is what team will win the honour of getting demolished by Golden State in the Finals.
Unfortunately we learned that the hard way. We will still probably have a great trade deadline. Lots of pieces other teams want. And one team usually always overays at the deadline. Lets just hope Estrada has a strong July.
