    Isaiah Lane has outperformed his 13th round pick expectations
  2. DJL44
    Unfortunately “pretty good” leaves them out of the playoffs. They need excellent starting pitching if they want to win 15 of the next 21 games.
  3. DJL44
    Since a 5.40 ERA is average, here are some pitchers having a decent season in the minors. Merit Jones 3.90 Riley Quick 4.21 Eric Orze 2.25 Julian Merryweather 3.91 Cole Peschl 3.94 Ty Langenberg 4.12 Justin Mitrovich 3.23
  4. DJL44
    We are going to get 16 playoff teams in a 32 team league. Expanded playoffs make money. We might see a 150 game schedule to squeeze in that first playoff round.
  5. DJL44
    Kansas City moves south. MLB will want the possibility of 2 division winners in NY, LA, Texas and Chicago.
  6. DJL44
    If the expansion teams are San Antonio, Charlotte or Nashville we would see either Arizona or Colorado in the American League West
  7. DJL44
    It is important to adjust for the inflated run scoring environment in the minor leagues when evaluating hitters and pitchers. MiLB teams are scoring one run per game more than MLB teams (5.4 runs per team vs 4.5 runs per team in MLB). That’s 20% more offense.
  8. DJL44
    We will get eight 4-team divisions instead.
  9. DJL44
    2027 is quite unlikely. The Twins would need to be contending and in desperate need of a catcher. 2028 could happen.
  10. DJL44
    It is getting crowded in the outfield in AAA.
  11. DJL44
    That was five years ago
  12. DJL44
    If he can play catcher he might make the team next season.
  13. DJL44
    MLB catchers are selected for pop time. If you can’t control the running game, you move positions before you make MLB.
  14. DJL44
    It all depends on whether he can catch. If not he’s just another outfielder in the pile.
  15. DJL44
    He’s probably more useful than Gabriel Gonzalez. Is Austin Martin going to come back in September?
  16. DJL44
    Heckuva week for Morissette.
  17. DJL44
    He could be the best of the bunch
  18. DJL44
    In a couple of years he will be the same age as his coach is right now.
  19. DJL44
    The winners will most certainly be the locations that have the best public stadium funding, from a short list of cities selected by television partners. Austin / San Antonio, Portland, Nashville, Charlotte, Montreal and Salt Lake City will all get asked to bid. Texas and North Carolina are likely to create the best public funding package. Portland and Oakland look like great cities for AAA teams.
  20. DJL44
    They need him back and healthy to showcase him for offseason trades
  21. DJL44
    Which outfielder did they trade for Lopez?
  22. DJL44
    They’ve been fine with teams temporarily playing in AAA stadiums before. The TV rights trump everything else and they want to sell expanded playoffs. It is worth noting that expanding MLB means 8 more minors teams as well. Oakland probably gets a AAA team. Portland could also get one as a consolation prize.
  23. DJL44
    Kreidler was obviously going to turn back into a pumpkin.
  24. DJL44
    I believe Canterino is a free agent at the end of this year. He won’t go to fall instructs. My guess is he ends up in an independent league. Teams are not looking for a 29-year old pitcher who has thrown just 86 innings since leaving college.
  25. DJL44
    The Rays stadium situation was decided last week. The A’s move to Vegas in 2028. The Rays should move into their new home in 2029. Could we see expansion teams as soon as 2030? I think it is inevitable by 2032 at the latest.
