Some of the more recent academic publishing on Narcissism says the overwhelming majority of it is related to insecurity. Trump is the perfect...
Out of curiosity, I looked it up. https://www.si.com/mlb/2018/10/04/teams-undefeated-postseason-playoffs-history-swept Since the playoffs...
Lol. Classic "the sky is falling" reaction after a loss. -as mentioned above, the team is stlil 8-2 in the last 10 and on-pace for 105 wins...
Two different ideas: Sticking up for Correa: justfied. He's a fantastic ball player. A lot of people (myself included) think there's another...
Am I crazy or are they treating Paredes with kid gloves this series? 8 total PA's this series so far: 4BB's, 0 hits.
Among the mega-contracts (>$200m), i think the only unequivocal team win is the Nats with Scherzer's 7 year deal. Way more of those mega contracts...
Man, I remember being SO into the draft stuff in the early years of the Luhnow rebuild. Getting so excited about Luhnow mid-round picks that...

Sigh, this is where comparison is a killjoy. By run prevention (e.g. ERA), they were similar but otherwise the seasons were very different....
This didn't age well.
Ken Waldichuk is a top 100 prospect, 35th overall on Fangraphs. (Hunter Brown is 85th on the Fangraphs top 100). Him pitching well isn't a crazy...
It's Dusty's fault of course.
Agree and second most of this. My caveat is: In terms of "team" development, playing more consistent and organized system ball is obviously a...
I think your premise is extremely flawed: 1) He most certainly is getting every resource available offered to him already. They're not idiots. 2)...
If the Astros did that, I guarantee they lose the locker-room. There is no circumstance where sending a highly respected veteran to fall instructs...
