    Pivetta on COVID IL.

    That’s why wins are a dumb stat.

    Dude has a 6.66 ERA. Scary.

    Uh RICHARDS

    In 115 at-bats with the Yankees, Joey Gallo has only recorded 15 hits. A poor man’s Dalbec.

    RHern? Too soon to call it.

    OPS back up to 835.

    That contract $ per WAR is trash. It has nothing to do with market value.

    I’d take it. I won’t be mad if he opts out.
  13. mvp 78
    I prefer to listen to the trained scouts that say “he takes bad routes to balls.” Can he get better? Sure. Will he? Who knows?

    Yes, but he could rack up a few more wins in the pen too.
  16. mvp 78
    Every offseason we kept predicting Marcus Wilson would be DFA'd too. It took a lot longer than any of us expected.

    If the Sox called Groome up, it wouldn't ruin him. He just wouldn't be very good on the field. I don't think it'd have any negative impact on his play in 2022.
  18. mvp 78
    Let's pretend that we had the old rules and could have 40 players on an active roster in September and that MiLB was over. No, having Groome on this roster for a few weeks wouldn't hurt him. He might not pitch all that much, but it could be good to have him around some of the MLB guys (he did spend considerable time working out with Sale in the past). I wouldn't expect him to pitch very well in a game though. In that respect, were MLB GM's resistant to call up guys for the 40 man active roster back a few years ago? If those guys failed, was it rushing them? Did that hurt their confidence? If it would hurt their confidence, a GM would never call up any decent prospect in the old 40 man days.
  19. mvp 78
    Yes, they could probably use him. Seems like his "stuff" is back to 100%.
  20. mvp 78
    Hell no. He can barely get A+ guys out.
  21. mvp 78
    The division race is OVER.
  22. mvp 78
    The problem is that he's already on the 40 man. You can't hide a bunch of guys on there for a few years. Jay Groome: 2 years away? Brian Mata: No timetable?? (They won't 60 day IL him for service time reasons) Hudson Potts: 40 man casualty this offseason? Rosario: give him one more year to figure it out?
  23. mvp 78
    Also "baseball is based on confidence." These hitters expect to fail 7 out of 10 times when up to bat. If they fail during short term exposure to MLB pitching, shouldn't that just roll off them?
  24. mvp 78
    Who the hell is making that argument? I hate the STRAWMAN nonsense, but... Wow.
  25. mvp 78
    I believe lower ceiling guys COULD be more likely to be called up early because the arbitration risk is much lower than for top tier prospects. However, lower ceiling guys are less likely to be called up because they aren't as good. It's a tightrope walk with talent and service time that is f***ING STUPID.
