Sure, that's the truth. It's just about when you need a fill-in starter, you'd like it to be a guy who can at least 'keep you in the game' with 5.1 innings and 3 runs allowed or something-not get shelled out of there in the first inning. Somebody who doesn't cost you much but has a chance of landing a decent contract the next year if they do well, like Fister.

Travis might be another unexpected bonus, both him and Swihart...they might help push back the cliff.
-
Nothing, except 'told you so' rights.
-
How's that? He added Sale last year.
-
Deal.
-
I know, it's a beauty isn't it.
-
How about this-Hosmer vs. Duda based on OPS+, minimum 400 PA's?
-
I propose a friendly wager. I'll take Hosmer over Duda in fWAR.
-
Someone's going to give Buchholz a minor-league deal at some point soon.
-
It's definitely Clay time.
-
Can LeBron hit real pitchers any better than MJ could is the question. -
moon didn't just say better value, though. He said better season, period.
-
I'm of the same thinking-don't tinker too much. But apparently a lot of hitters were successful in changing their launch angle to hit more home runs, which was, supposedly, one of the big factors in the long ball increase.
-
Or even imagine if David was insistent on playing first base. He could probably play first about as well as Miggy Cabrera. I assume it was his issues with his feet that prevented him from ever thinking too hard about that.
-
I'm an OPS guy myself. JD's OPS numbers have been pretty sweet for a 4 year stretch. 2014 912 2015 879 2016 908 2017 1066 Those numbers are Ortiz-esque.
-
I think you're going a little overboard predicting that Duda will have a better season than Hosmer.
-
I don't disagree. I think there may have been a little PR involved. It feels like a team tossing a bone to their long-suffering fans, like when Washington gave that staggering deal to Jayson Werth.
-
Apparently unless you're Blake Swihart - then it's the time to take Sandy Leon's place on the team.
-
Everyone will be in? No doubt there are going to be some big deals signed by the elite players. But I think some of the trends we saw this year aren't going away, ever, like the extreme reluctance to give out big contracts to non-elite players.
-
They don't give the actual pitch counts in the box scores for spring games. Join the club of people who have been getting confused by it.
-
It varies.
-
I certainly took it as such.
-
The only thing that's inaccurate is that Jackso would probably have conceded we had the better offense.
-
Under the assumption someone was willing to pick up Young's tab.
-
The best fastballs are the ones with 'late life', though.
