  1. I like the offense in this plan...concerned on the trade price for Iglesias (btw you have Gordon being part of the trade package and as your fallback at 2B and the same rotation plus Pineda IF the starters progress and offense rakes this could be enough to worry the Indians
  2. Here's hoping for a little more than the Status Quo this Winter...we deserve it (this includes the DeadPool $$$ for Hughes, Big Erv and LoMo)
  3. A little Preview of the next You Be the GM Tool Here's Tom's Blueprint (didn't remove Ollie Drake for authenticity) with projected salaries and notes from his OP Future payroll does not appear to be much of a concern with this Blueprint
  4. Updated You be the GM 40-man Toolkit Shows current MLB 40-man roster with list of Rule 5 Eligible for this year and next Feel free to Make a Copy if you'd like or Duplicate the "DUPLICATE THIS SHEET TO MAKE YOUR PROJECTION" tab and make your own 40-man Take a screen shot and post for others to scrutinize as they see fit Here's mine
  5. Thanks Ash for clearing the air on Graterol Alcala is another player whose Rule 5 status has been debated Birthday: July 28, 1995 Signed: December 3, 2014 Houston Astros signed free agent RHP Jorge Alcala to a minor league contract. I believe the following earns him another year of Rule 5 freedom: (1) A player without previous Major or Minor League service who signs with a Major League or independent Minor League Club shall be subject to selection based on the following: (A) if 18 years of age or under on the June 5 immediately preceding the player’s signing, the player shall be subject to selection at the fifth Rule 5 Selection Meeting that follows the signing date of the player’s first Major or Minor League contract, unless Rule 5©(1)© applies; ( if 19 years of age or over on the June 5 immediately preceding the player’s signing, the player shall be subject to selection at the fourth Selection Meeting that follows the signing date of the player’s first Major or Minor League contract, unless Rule 5©(1)© applies; also from THE OFFICIAL PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL RULES BOOK.
  6. Magic Number Update: Division: 44 Wild Card: 47 Cleveland stuck 18
  7. Magic Number Update: Division: 46 Wild Card: 49 For the negative thinkers in the room Cleveland Magic Number: 18
  8. Let's all take a breath and remember Rome wasn't built in a day...neither were Jose Berrios or Kyle Gibson. Starting pitchers take time to develop and need opportunities at the MLB level Some promising things from Stewart: More breaking pitches that were competitive if not always strikes Castellanos AB was encouraging...finished him off with a 4-seamer up in the zone FB was running all over the place...not sure he knows where it's gonna go Velo topped out at what 97...that's encouraging Facing same lineup back-to-back is tough for a veteran pitcher let alone a rookie To me it looked like Stewart/Garver were trying too hard to hit spots...with the movement he has start it down the middle and take your chances...Garver was setting up on the corner or outside the zone (not to mention the Montok AB, watch Garver jump way inside to give the target on a 1-seamer) Lost season and all...give Stewart some run...looks similar to Berrios' first starts
  9. Visual Learner here...can we get a different picture on this thread or the Roundtable thread...I keep forgetting which one I want to post to {note to moderators...I totally get it if there isn't another usable bullpen picture with someone who is still on the active roster}
  10. Magic Number Update: Division: 56 Wild Card: 59 Red Sox Number to finish with best record in the AL: 33 For those a little more pessimistic: Cleveland Magic Number for Division: 32
  11. For a defense first multi-year MLBer, Adrianza is supposed to make life easier for rookies making their debut Inexcusable for him to not get an out...and sorry Tom but to say "...things like that are liable to happen from time-to-time when everybody’s putting the ball in play." is unfair to Stewart Routine groundballs are expected to be turned into outs at the MLB level and I was enjoying crisp innings that didn't involve 3 ball counts on every hitter I suppose we could blame the rest of the Twins starters who have conditioned the fielders to fall asleep in the field with 3 ball counts and endless AB's It was a good start by Stewart, here's hoping he gets another start or 6
  12. Magic Number Update: Division: 58 Wild Card: 61 For reference: Boston has already eliminated Baltimore and KC
