Agree. Breggy is solidly in the 2nd tier of all 3B. All-star level. Tier 1) Arenado, Machado, Jose Ramirez (year to year) Tier 2) Bregman,...
Money vs Prospects. TBH, that's basically the same thing to a certain degree. It's whether you want to spend your resources now or later. The...
Arizona would have to be really high on that particular quartet, which I doubt TBH. They're getting 1 solid ML pitcher, 1 high upside/low floor...
Happy for CC and super happy he didn't join the Yankees/Dodgers/Braves/Mariners.
Since when have the Astros needed to win the off-season? They've made moves at the trade deadline every year.
Said it before, but the guys who populate the prospect lists are usually the ones who were high round picks/big bonus IFAs and performed well in...

They're basically Angels East. top-end talent, but poor depth will ultimately kill their season at some point.
Mildly surprising no one wanted Julks or Murray. Good for the Stros. More upper minor league depth without burning a 40-man spot.

Who deserves more of a condescending pat on the head for their off-season moves? The Rangers or the Angels?
From what I've heard from Nook and read elsewhere, the Stros think Diaz might be a plus bat at C and has the physical skills to be a decent major...
No. Quite the opposite. However, I think the benefits of playing regularly far outweighs the benefits of seeing Maldy's prep but not playing...
Didn't see that blurb about trading one of them if Contreras signed before, thanks. Re: Lee or Diaz getting 20-40 games their rookie season. I'd...
that’d basically be conceding that neither Diaz nor Lee will ever be a full time catcher for the Astros. That’s about the worse possible thing you...
The breaking news to me is that Kiley McDaniel is now a Twitter news breaker. I thought he still worked for the Braves. The NL East arms race is...
FAX Sports is a satire Fox sports twitter feed.
MLB's official top 100 seems like the one with the least actual scouting by the primary list compilers. Nothing against Callis or Mayo, but I...
