    In terms of aesthetics he's probably talking about the shift. Entertainment wise is probably the lack of runs. What's pleasing for fans is obviously installing robot umps and pitch clocks immediately.

    The longer we have Manfred, the worse he looks. I thought Selig was the bottom of the barrel. He wasn't.

    It's a gorilla wearing a Theo suit now.

    College seniors rarely go unsigned unless the team has run out of budget room or the player just doesn't want to play baseball anymore.
  5. mvp 78
    Yes. Kimbrel is not clutch.

    It would have been funny if their last selection was a Catcher though.
  7. mvp 78
    Those crazy bastards did it.

    @JeffFletcherOCR The #Angels have completed their 20 selections in the draft, and here's a summary. P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P P

    Controversial take: David Ortiz was good. https://www.boston.com/sports/boston-red-sox/2016/10/15/every-david-ortiz-walk-off/

    They walked him 4 times in game 6. That's how good he was.

    https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/b/benoijo01.shtml 207 ERA+ in regular season, then Papi makes him famous. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/w/wainwad01.shtml Runner up for CY https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/s/siegrke01.shtml 832 ERA+ in regular season, Papi hit a bomb off him

    943 career. Can't find postseason splits.
  13. mvp 78
    931 career OPS. 947 career OPS in the postseason.

    Pitch clock is easier to establish as fans are more familiar with the tech (already used in football and basketball). Once the fans are comfortable with that change, the switch to robo umps (which still use human umps behind the plate) will be fine.

    Red Sox selected Wyatt Olds. Mets selected Wyatt Young. Let's see which strategy works out.
  16. mvp 78
    Agreed.
  17. mvp 78
    Seems to cut it a little too tight IMO.

    @KyleAGlaser Rob Manfred on A’s relocation: “Las Vegas is a viable alternative for a major league club….Thinking about this as a bluff is a mistake.” The pro sports Oakland to Las Vegas pipeline is real. Good thing the Warriors already crossed the bay.

    $13M lux tax

    I believe Duffy would put us over.
  21. mvp 78
    This would be a good idea for its own thread.
  22. mvp 78
    Sox announced Kiké as a 2b (probably since JBJ was still unsigned). They had a hole at 2b that seemed like he'd be able to fill. It only makes sense that it was the first reaction. You were correct in recognizing his defensive capabilities in CF.
  23. mvp 78
    What is holding the team back is the starting pitching first and foremost. Dalbec is second or third on the list after that.
  24. mvp 78
    I'd go pitch clock first, then robo umps.
  25. mvp 78
    Angels first 11 rounds were all college pitchers.
