  1. IDK. He only has 1.9 fWAR. That's maybe only in the very good territory. Kiké has the same fWAR so far. We wouldn't call his season historic.
  2. He pitched this weekend too. There was a whole lot going on here in this blowout victory for FCL, but we have to start on the mound with Seabold. The prospect was making his second rehab appearance on the complex, and after showing strong stuff but some rust with his command the first time out, it doesn’t appear that was much of an issue this time around. He allowed just a single and a double, and he should be able to move up the ladder for his next start, even if he’s not ready to get all the way back up to Worcester. As for Encarnacion, he’s just coninuing a great start to his year. He’s now down to a 0.69 ERA over 14 innings, striking out 14 and walking only one.
  3. I'd give him one more start in POR and WOO. If he feels ready to go after that, I call him up and you just figure out his innings from there.
  4. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/2021-trade-value-31-to-40/ In terms of trade value, Fangraphs has Raffy at 37th highest and Verdugo at 35. Verdugo may have a higher value solely because he has an extra year of control.
  5. https://twitter.com/jnorris427/status/1417500504549117958 Video if anyone was interested in seeing Casas' new swing when he has 2 strikes. He chokes up and keeps both feet planted on the ground.
  6. It would seem to be the case since they are going to be in a rough stretch and some of these guys look haggard.
  7. I would assume actual GM's prefer healthy players too.
  8. I put Groome in that deal instead of Ward specifically because he had a higher BTV value. I'm not sure I'd do that deal. I think Ward and Groome are both huge question marks. Not sure which I'd put my money on.
  9. Maybe?
  10. With that freak, it's more about his arm bouncing back after each session than stretching him out.
  11. Gallo for Downs, Dalbec and Groome
  12. Dalbec and Potts for Carlos Santana and Mike Minor
  13. I'd rather hold onto Ward if I could. I'm just really unsure about Down at the moment. He's not a great glove. He's not hitting well in AAA. Only 3 2b's so far? What is going on with him this year? Downs 2019 1.116 OPS in AA (small sample), .862 High A Downs 2021 .632 OPS in AAA
  14. Houck is still coming off an injury. Would they push him that soon? I'm not sure what the plan is or if they are going to give him the April/May Whitlock treatment.
  15. Short term guys: Greinke Verlander Scherzer Blackmon Semien Jansen Morton Duffy Crawford Miller JBJ Kluber JD Not all elite, not all prime years. The elite/prime year guys would be: Bauer Arenado Bryant Freeman Story Correa Rizzo? (is he even elite anymore) I wouldn't see us signing ANY of those elite guys. I could see us trying to grab to high priced/short term SP's like Scherzer and Duffy if they can't re-sign ERod.
  16. Yes sir.
  17. It's Chris Sale day in Portland tonight!
  18. What if it's short term big spending? Something you can get out of in 2-3 years?
  19. Per BTV: Mancini for Jeter Downs Mancini for Dalbec, R Hernandez, Rosario I think BTV undervalues what the O's would want for Mancini, but I'd consider either of those trades.
  20. I agree. I'm just saying that I like Mancini as a player fit. I think he'd be great for the organization. I don't think I would make a trade for him at the deadline though because he'd be cost prohibitive.
  21. Framing is only a skill because it's meant to trick umpires into calling every pitch a strike. Receiving is a more appropriate skill as it's simply about handling the pitch coming in.
  22. Mancini would come at a premium due to what he means for that ballclub. I'd take him over most of the other guys though.
  23. Need to also add 8/10 for: Roman Quinn - PHI OF
