Yea, those pitches traditionally haven't been called strikes but by the rule book they're strikes. There's definitely gonna be unintended...
Up to the point where they aren't making money anymore, they're not trading Trout and Ohtani. It's bad for baseball that two generational talents...
Am I nuts to think they should stick to college guys? They haven't done a great job of getting those high-round HS picks to the finish line....
Eric Longenhagen of Fangraphs covered the trade. Trade value wash but he favored Atlanta's end because of draft potential.
I think it's a lot closer than you're giving it credit for. The upside for the 35th pick is decent but there's so many variables that'll go into...
do you want the prospects or the draft pick/pool money? cuz it seems like a pretty balanced trade.
Urquidy has value. No question. He's solid and under team control for more years as you said. But if that's the case, why would the Astros trade...
This isn't fantasy sports. Even if I agreed with your valuations of players and evaluation of the market, which I don't, there's a ton of reasons...
Spare parts trade proposals aside, feel like I need to point out it's all incredibly unlikely a top catcher prospect swap would ever happen. As...
This seems like a weird, unnecessarily complicated trade that two contenders wouldn't make. Catcher prospect swaps, Starting OFer swaps, Trading 2...

My god. just looked at his stat line. He's at 4.0 fWAR in 74 games. He's on pace for 8 fWAR as a DH/LF. Unreal.
It’s absolutely brutal that you got 2-4th round guys like Santos, Whitaker and Brewer at the bottom of the list. Gotta do better than that. Its...
If that’s .230-240 batting average with a decent OBP and 20 HR’s and solid to above average defense…. That’s still a 3-4 fWAR player. if thats...
Today would have been an interesting time to get Abreu some work. Overtaxed closer/setup men. Abreu hasn't thrown in 5 days. Instead we go with Maton.
WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
Jabari a very good roll player at best? The dude was widely mocked to be the #1 pick in a decently strong draft. He absolutely has all-star...
There's probably a big gap in how the Astros want to use JV and how he insists on being used. An IL stint in the weak part of schedule wouldn't be...
Agree it'll be useful to rotate Abreu into higher leverage situations for experience sake but there's a needle to thread there. Can't just demote...
He's minor league depth right now. Maybe he breaks out and becomes a fringe/AAAA/bench piece but I don't think they're expecting much currently.
