  1. Why call up Kavadas if Casas will be here in a few weeks?
  2. Why extend him for near Strider money? Doesn't make sense. Why extend Rafaela if he hasn't shown he can even hit at the MLB level? Glove first guys are cheap as Hell.
  3. They weren't cheap though! There isn't any cost savings with the extensions offered unless Bello and Rafaela beat expectations.
  4. Cooper has been WORSE than Smith.
  5. The fact that you have to say "time will tell" is showing that they are not living up to what they extensions were.
  6. 16: .500 17 - 23: below .500 2015 was the only season the Royals have won 90 games since 1989.
  7. I don't have a problem with the Gio signing. File that under s*** happens.
  8. Yes, no Spring Training and has 7 starts with only 1 bad start (3 IP, 6 ER that is skewing his stats).
  9. The Speier article from last week listed some of the concerns: bad defense, platoon bat that can't hit decent velo or breaking balls.
  10. Yeah, they've really just chosen the wrong players to spend on. First, they should have spent on Mookie. Duh. Sale, not a great investment. Story was injured when they signed him. Most other franchises valued Masa much lower and seem to be correct. Bringing JBJ back. Kluber. Extending Rafaela and Bello too early. Devers overpaid?
  11. Orioles look good now, but they went 6 straight years under .500 very recently. This just may be them reaping a great farm system as they did from 12-16. Boom bust period? From 98-11, they were under 500 every single season.
  12. Penrod promoted to AAA.
  13. Red Sox pitcher Bryan Mata will miss more time after experiencing lat soreness following his latest rehab outing for Double-A Portland on Thursday. Boston initially announced Mata’s injury as shoulder soreness, but the right-hander told reporters on Saturday the issue is primarily in his lat.
  14. If he was a Driveline guy, he would have wrecked his elbow and had 2 TJS before he even reached MLB.
  15. Babe Ruth hit homeruns off the same pitches that Bobby Dalbec is feasting on in AAA.
  16. And Pedro would drill his ass 100%.
  17. The question isn't if he'd throw a no-no, it's how many perfect games he'd toss in a single season.
  18. They used to measure Sam McDowell's fastballs vs motorcycles. High tech stuff! Let's not get into the Dalkowski nonsense either which really gives up the game...
  19. I'm obviously joking about Houck. He'd destroy Koufax in a game of one on one. Probably rock the baby and posterize Koufax.
  20. Probably wouldn't want to be on the same field as "those people" though.
  21. It's how we can send people into the sun, a fastball from 2036 that reaches escape velo. There's a 13 year old right now being trained at Driveline for this.
  22. They did say "like a rocket."
  23. Something to keep in the file just in case IMO.
  24. Fastballs can't rise. It's an impossibility. Houck with guys behind him that could legitimately play defense? He probably has an ERA under 1.50 60 years ago.
