  1. What in the wide, wide world of sports is a-goin' on here?
  2. Goodrum has been so bad that he's maybe not even likely to get AAA playing time. Sad!
  3. Career fWAR: Sale 45.4 Kluber 39.1 WS Rings: Sale 1 Kluber 0 Jerseys Torn: Sale 1 Kluber 0 Leader in W, SV, K: Sale The only thing that Kluber is better is in wearing high socks.
  4. @PeteAbe It’s only spring training, all the usual disclaimers apply. But Chris Sale is as ebullient about baseball as he been for a long time. Even a five-inning sim game in an empty ballpark had him smiling. Shouldn't he be mad about not being the Opening Day Starter and just being a benchwarmer!?!?! I guess he's not a true competitor anymore! We can just call him Mr Happy To Be There.
  5. The only other team to charge their players for WiFi: the Cincinnati Reds. Good company to have.
  6. Seriously. Maybe they should give the Rangers a call since Sandy Leon CERTIFIED CERA GOD has a 872 OPS this spring.
  7. Originally, I thought he was going to piggyback with Paxton. Maybe they'll just piggyback him with Houck or Crawford? IDK. I think the long term goal is to get him to start once he's ready.
  8. Whitlock - Mills sent down Bello - Kelly sent down Paxton - Crawford sent down
  9. 1 Kluber 2 Sale 3 Pivetta 4 Houck 5 Crawford 6 Jansen 7 Martin 8 Schreiber 9 Rodriguez 10 Bleier 11 Kelly 12 Brasier 13 Mills
  10. Coward. Give it a shot.
  11. Alfaro will be back in ST soon. Colombia just lost in the WBC and they were relegated for the next WBC tournament because they came in last in Pool C.
  12. What a horrible way to live!
  13. With a metric f***-ton of expiring contracts after October. Sometimes you don't hold out hope and just punt for the betterment of the team.
  14. @jcmccaffrey The season starts two weeks from today and it’s crunch time for non-roster invitees. Rob Refsnyder and John Schreiber were NRIs last spring and made the most of their opportunities. Raimel Tapia - with a 1.244 OPS - is trying to do the same this spring. “We talk about disruptors and guys that can make an impact on the bases and going first-to-third, dirtball reads, great reads out of the box. He plays with his hair on fire.” Tapia’s aggressiveness on the bases is another element the Red Sox like
  15. LOL. I just Lou Gorman'd myself. I get the Reese's candy bar. If you read it, there's an apostrophe. The candy bar is his. I didn't know that. Next time your eating a Reese's and some guy named Reese comes up to you and says let me have that. You better give it to him. I'm sorry Reese, I didn't think I would ever run into you.
  16. "Well, we're only 5 games out of the Wild Card. Maybe we'll just stand pat and see where the season takes us!" And we'd still get some posters that would say "it made sense at the time."
  17. 1 Casas 2 Arroyo 3 Kiké 4 Devers 5 Turner DH/1B/3B 6 Yoshida 7 Verdugo 8 Duvall 9 McGee 10 Wong 11 Chang IF 12 Refsnyder OF 13 Alfaro C/1B/LF
  18. Wong is catching bullpens and doing agility training already. He's probably ready for Opening Day.
  19. If they carry a 5th OF, it's Alfaro.
  20. Bloom should be selling the Mets on Brasier and Ort right now.
  21. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/t/tovarce01.shtml
  22. If he's on the MLB roster, it's as a bench bat or due to an injury. I just think if they really want to maximize Dalbec's "utility" that there are other ways to do it. And yes, we are talking about it because half of the players are at the WBC and it's ST. Not much else to talk about right now. There's still a chance Dalbec isn't on the 40 man roster at the end of March.
  23. Anyway, Kluber threw 5 innings today. Whitlock threw 2. Martin and Joely each threw 1. Rays lineup wasn't great, but can't complain.
  24. I just think it's something that should probably go away now that it will be harder to truly shift on batters.
  25. Literally 3x worse. Tapia: -4 DRS in 935 innings Refsnyder: -5 DRS in 303 innings (would be ghastly if pushed to 900 innings)
