  1. I don't know. But some athletes are unique, I think, and Mookie may be one of them. He's got the exceptional quick twitch muscles. He bowls 300 games. He can throw a baseball 300 feet or whatever it was. I would not *bet* against him.
  2. A win cannot be totally unattractive. A pretty girl whose hair and clothes are a mess? You might cringe a little but you still want her?
  3. Huge credit to Bloom for getting a player of Verdugo's caliber in the deal.
  4. In this case it's the Rays pitcher Glasnow who is complaining, and some of us agree with him.
  5. Agreed. And not to mention, they also changed the damn baseballs again this year. Absolutely brutal job by Manfred.
  6. Maybe we should revisit the original statement by Cora, too, to see what he said about time frame, if anything.
  7. Is there really any such thing as a premier "Swiss army knife" pitcher, other than over a short period of time? Whitlock's usage in that capacity this year has been dictated by other factors.
  8. That sounds OK.
  9. Accountants must have an eye for details.
  10. Hello Jack Reacher...
  11. He's a great one, but age gets everyone. I thought Smoltz was going to do well for us in 2009. Fortunately the gamble didn't cost us much.
  12. He's a really good player.
  13. The Red Sox have taken the opposite direction, canning Ben and Dave while retaining their managers. But with the Yankees, if Cashman ever goes, I'm sure it would be a total housecleaning. Cynical Yankee fans think Cashman has a job as long as the team stays profitable.
  14. Unfortunately (perhaps) team ownership doesn't feel the same way, as we know from a certain future Hall of Famer being traded.
  15. In that scenario, you're living and dying with Verlander and Syndergaard. If they rebound bigly, great. If not, you're in deep doo-doo.
  16. This is Brian Cashman's team, and Boone is Cash's hand-picked manager. Cash is the guy who should be held most accountable for the current state of affairs.
  17. Taylor is T3 in PA on the 2021 Dodgers.
  18. Yes, it's kind of ironic that MLB is suddenly freaking out about pitchers doctoring the baseballs, when they've been doing it themselves. Did they stop to think that maybe it's the change in the 2021 baseballs that is causing the issue, rather than pitchers making a sudden change?
  19. Jennings did say "The spin rate data supports the assertion", but the assertion he was referring to was one by Martin Perez that it's not the sticky stuff. The data presented by Jennings shows that there hasn't been any clear correlation with drops in spin rates.
  20. I disagree. He's not little at all.
  21. In Peter Abraham's column on yesterday's thrashing, he finds it very suspicious that the collapse of the rotation coincided with the announcement about the sticky stuff crackdown. Lovely.
  22. The Yankees are 50-53 in their last 103 regular season games.
  23. Not true, though. He's bad, but he's not that bad.
