  1. Hmm, wonder if they would move on from Posey?
  2. Barr's letter can't be considered an executive summary. It's more or less, like, his opinion, man. Hard to draw any conclusions until the full report is released.
  3. Glad to see Harper is winning in a landslide. He impressed enough to earn an opening day roster spot.
  4. Makes a ton of sense for Chicago to have cost certainty. They wouldn't make a deal like this if they weren't confident in his ability.
  5. Not at all. I'm just saying it's hard to infer anything from his tweeting habits.
  6. Addison Reed should probably be moved to the 60 day IL... But if that isn't the move I would guess Duffey is removed from the 40.
  7. Now he's tweeting again. I'm happy to sit and wait for them to decide if they'll release the report to the public.
  8. Now it's 4.3 years of service because they were willing to extend him. Is it an overpay for players that slotted in at #14/15 on the prospect list? I'm still not thrilled about the trade.
  9. Old friend Lucas Duda signs with the KC Royals.
  10. Romero sent to AAA today. Now what? Doesn't he still need innings (ideally starter innings) to develop?
  11. 5/$145 extension for Sale, pending a physical.
  12. Is there anyone left worth a damn in the next free agency class?
  13. We'll never know unfortunately if that is market value... Would anyone be surprised if another team offers $40+ million AAV on the open market? I wouldn't for the best player on the planet, maybe ever.
  14. Lineup: C - Castro 1B - Cron 2B - School SS - Polanco 3B - Gonzalez LF - Rosario CF - Buxton RF - Kepler Bench: C: Garver IF: Adrianza OF: Cave Util: Astudillo Rotation: Berrios Pineda Gibson Odorizzi Bullpen: May Rogers (L) Parker Mejia (L) Perez (L) Hildenberger Magill Harper IL: Sano, Addison Reed, Moya
  15. Is a cover letter a requirement? During my time as a recruiter I can say not a single hiring manager I worked with looked at or cared about one.
  16. It kinda feels like the Wild missed the boat on that wave of youngsters... I don't know if JE-Ek, Donato, or Greenway can be all star level. I concur with your thought on Fiala, AKA James Sheppard. Hype with no substance... There's too many potential lockouts to keep up with! September is the month where either the owners or players can opt out and start the labor war. The escrow clause for the players sounds like a rough deal. https://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/hockey/ct-spt-nhl-lockout-deadline-20180916-story.html Bettman's pride must get in the way. It's the only explanation for not admitting the warm weather/desert expansion has been a failure. They could and should relocate 2-3 teams to a more prosperous and interested city.
  17. Better than nothing I guess.
  18. Moya will start the year on the IL as well.
  19. This is how we baseball. Messing with a perfectly capable starting option.
  20. Worked out pretty well for them last time with Tim Anderson.
  21. Hmm, I wonder why I had to pay to attend a college football game, and pay $9 for a beer? The NCAA doesn't pay those athletes...
  22. Some might think this is crazy, but Mike Trout's salary IMO goes beyond just standard baseball money. He's the best player on the planet... Broke all custom projection systems, and more valuable through age 26 then anyone in history. His presence on the Angels is more than just $36 million a year. He's on pace to be the all time leader in HRs, hits, WAR, etc. He'll have multiple generations of people buying his jerseys and wanting to be him. He could have made even more money and who would think otherwise?
  23. As did I. Which makes the Barr re-signing mind.boggling. to me. I don't like paying him 3-4 pass rushing LB money when he doesn't rush the passer.
  24. The acquired 22 year old kids give some glimmer of hope... This roster still isn't good enough to win. Wish the veterans cared about winning a Stanley Cup, or lifted their no trade clause (if there's any interest in them at all).
