No. I'd classify this as one of the spare parts for valuable piece trade proposals. When you're talking about getting a solid above average piece...
If anything it's Leon's floor and average outcome that people are missing the boat on. The dude hit .228 at AAA; that does not portend good...
AFL might average out to AA but you gotta take the AFL stats with a large grain of salt. There'll be players from A+ to AAA in that league. Some...
No. They're part of the South Atlantic league (HiA), which is mostly teams on the East coast or adjacent states. If they re-locate it'll be...
He had basically as many > 1.0 IP outings as 1.0 IP or less. He's not a long man in the sense that he won't go 5IP but he was effectively the...
Seth Martinez cries....
They don't care about *Maldy's* offense. They believe he has a particular set of skills that far outweighs his offense. I don't think that can...
Lee and Yainer have a similar problem for different reasons. They're both blocked from full-time catching work at the big league level. Lee for...
I have a hard time thinking of another team that would want to sign a 38 y/o 1B with below average production to a full time or even part time...

Wouldn't say I think about it a lot but that 2019 team was the one i was most certain was going to win the WS all season. Unbelievable offense....

I remain skeptical about the long-term viability of a two-pitch strategy. There's not a lot of examples of long-term success, two pitch starters....
Oh for sure it's not required. People would take 150 IP of 2.5 ERA and 33% K rate every season no question. But c'mon, saying he could use better...
Not sure what point you're making with that last comment. Lol, there's an inherent shittiness to public prospect rankings. If they were actually...
Crazy thing is he has clear room to improve. He could use a solid third pitch and could go deeper into games.
Long odds he makes the majors at this point. He's gotten barely 50 IP over 5 years in Detroit and had shoulder surgery recently.
There was some unprecedented health in the rotation this year. I don't think they can bank on it again. If they roll 6 man and two starters are...
That would be hilarious and sad all at the same time. Every other playoff contender would be stoked to not have to see JV and Degrom in the...
