Arenado is a net downgrade from Paredes. That would be a terrible move. I would be beyond disappointed if the Pressly salary space move was to...
The idea of 30 being "battleworn" makes me feel very old. Bregman looked plenty good at 3B last season when he won the Gold Glove. He's a...
Brought Hader in just in time to face a couple righties. Inexplicable.
Comparing Pressly and Harris is crazy. Strikeout, single, bloop single, another strikeout. He should have been out of the inning with the game...
I just don't see Bregs having much success "resetting the market" by taking a short deal at 25m/per. If he's looked at as a 25m/yr guy as a 30yo...
The Astros bullpen was great in 2023 and then mostly crap last season. They got cute doubling down on a strength and it didn't work. Sometimes...
You're taking this more personally than you need to. Assuming healthy, none of those guys are skipping as many games as you suggest. Someone...
Your whole list involves basic assumptions about rest days that are incorrect. Yordan sat 15 games last year, Altuve 9, Yainer 12, Pena 5,...
In a "where to play Altuve" situation, the possibility of him spending time at DH has to be considered. It looks like an inevitability at some...
Not a huge contract but still glad we didn't get tethered to that.
Profar has played for 4 teams in his career and he's been below average on three of them. His projected numbers just don't move the needle enough...
Those were career numbers at age 31. He's not repeating them. If the Padres thought he would, you'd think they would find a way to give him the...
His defensive numbers using bWAR (different set of numbers) also suck. He's a bad defensive player. Every defensive metric says so. And those...
Profar put up -1.6 fWAR in 2023 while amassing over 500 PA. Literally the worst out of 1457 players. Almost twice as bad as Maldonado, who...
It's a different scenario, to be sure. For now. But they could (for example) trade Book to the Rockets and get their picks back, trade KD for...
I mean, the Rockets found out a way to be competitive after 3 tanking seasons and a .500 season. 2031 may as well be 100 years away at this point...
It's too bad all 3 consistently choked in the playoffs. The heroes of the postseason when we finally made runs in 04 and 05 were Oswalt and Berkman.
They got back a relief pitcher they thought was interesting for Kessinger. I don’t think Singleton has any trade value. Singleton and Hummel...
His place on the 40 currently doesn’t mean he makes the opening 26. Cooper Hummel is on the 40. Salazar is an option for the 26, and he’s on...
