It's all a question of what you think Chas can ultimately be. If you think he can never improve, then yes the obvious thing is to restrict him to...
I think if they're somewhat logical, they should be stoked that they're bringing back an all-star level, foundational SS AND that their FO/owner...
I agree with the first part. I don't agree with the second part. If he were such an elite bat, they wouldn't have signed Abreu. His best chance to...
In addition to being better for the team, it's much better economically for him if he can catch and provide the same level of hitting production....
Strange how Dubon gets re-litigated constantly. Have never understood why the 26th man gets so much heat. We can all agree he's pretty terrible...
Taylor Tomlinson is great. She has a few stand-up specials on Netflix.
Astros' "I don't get no respect" chip on the shoulder. "tainted" 2017 title or not, sports media doesn't really care about Astros narrative....
I'm no lawyer but the answer is 'no'. It would likely violate the CBA to have an unfixed baseline player salary. It's one thing to have incentive...
well yea, I guess my thought was they can explant the plate if they’re concerned it would cause more damage during sliding. Though that would...
Interesting. From a strictly medical perspective, a fixation plate shouldn’t be doing much this far out from the initial surgery. It’s meant to...
Lol. Not gonna say it’s an overpay or not but it should highlight what the going rate for Varsho was and why we weren’t going to get him from...
It was a not uncommon complaint that Chas sat against lefties and played mostly against righties, which went against his splits and tended to make...
Dusty definitely has some old school tendencies. Some end up making a lot of sense. Some don't. Re: giving Yuli so much playing time when he was...
that was my point, they wanted a C in the first round but Lee was a terrible value there. He had a 2-4th round grade from most services. BPA is...
Isn’t the logic the other way around usually? Conforto wants a 1 year make good deal so he can get a long term contract next off-season but the...
Reasonable strategy but I think there’s a good chance you miss out on a lot of value focusing on a particular type of player. E.g taking Korey Lee...
Head and shoulders better over all. Contreras is a slightly better hitter but one of the worst defensive catchers in the game. Murphy is above...
It's a best of all worlds scenario, but the bottom line for Yainer is they've narrowed his pathway to ML playing time this season considerably by...
That's not Schwarber though. He's 94%ile in walk rate. It's not purely his power that's elite. It's the overall quality of his contact. Yes,...
