  1. more and more it appears lee is not the shortstop of the future - he is just the shortstop of right now. and heavens to betsy, why is outman still around? i think my wife thought i was going to shoot the tv once they started booting the ball around in the 10th.
  2. "The interesting thing is these same players that are deficient defensively are not very good offensively either" royce has been coming around but lee is trending to be off the charts very soon - and if gray is given much more rope they may sacrifice his bat and keep him at short as he's looked pretty good thus far. caratini's arm isn't going to hold anyone on base so expect lots of stolen bases when he's behind the plate. outman in centre has been, thus far, a very bad idea. it's a long way to september.
  3. i have always felt good when i see him coming in to pitch. i think he'll be given a lot more room to move and get back to where he needs to be.
  4. maybe there's a new theo epstein in the pipeline ... a new kid we've never heard of that they're hiring. or not.
  5. julien was fun to watch initially and as a canadian i was a little cuffed to see him doing well. and then.... good luck to him in denver. it's a nice town and he can go by rockmount (not far from the stadium) and get himself a nice shirt. Ohl i liked for unknown reasons but liked him. i hope the best for him as well.
  6. i agree with others who think jeffers is gone. the twins won't carry that financial weight behind the plate. i am hoping am arm comes back be it middle relief or a fourth or fifth starter material while zebby and the slim reaper get up to speed.
  7. i said this when they first traded him away. he's an asset to the team in so many ways. get him back for a great price and i think he will provide depth. plus, he's a great guy!
  8. so you get a bat and, mainly, terrible defence. seems right.
  9. he better do well. a couple xmas' ago i received a t-shirt with his face on it.
  10. i know that guy... i think he's being looked at already by the Marlins.
  11. as said above, likely more a DH/pitch bat than a first baseman. however, his locker could be empty before camps ends.
  12. or is willi just punching above his weight and having a great year? the road is littered with the failure of high draft picks and future (projected) superstars. i love castro's play this year he's incredibly valuable.
  13. i think, and who am i?...that he's a great shortstop with a slightly above average bat - maybe i'm being generous with the bat. i was put of by the cheating and the off season drama (who likes that?) and ultimately, capt. obvious, it's a business and he's a business athlete and will get the most he can get and the highest bidder will get his services. and yes, if we really want to talk over-rated - and i love buck - it would be byron.
  14. big market vs. small market and as long as the grown-ups spend like a small market team we'll never get past the yankees. that line-up of bats is impressive - yes, i hate them but holy cow.
  15. as said above - they are better than the twins at this point. until the twins can beat cleveland, we're in tough.
  16. i see trimming of the excess rather than adding or subtracting by trades. move margot and farmer along to make room.
  17. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2023/05/carlos-correa-diagnosed-with-plantar-fasciitis-and-muscle-strain-in-left-foot.html and so it begins.
  18. Moneyball. truth is they had some great pitchers on that billy beane built team. the truth is somewhere in the middle.
  19. oh we know that it's a small sample size however, most saw this coming - the days off early (early injuries?) and slow starts. it's still a real thing.
