  1. The deal is worth $132MM over seven years, as per ESPN.com’s Jeff Passan (Twitter links), though this counts the $12MM that Bogaerts is already earning for the 2019 season in his final year of arbitration eligibility. As MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand notes, the extension is really a six-year, $120MM deal covering the 2020-25 seasons. The contract also has a vesting option for 2026 according to the New York Post’s Joel Sherman (Twitter links), with an opt-out clause after the third season. Bogaerts is represented by the Boras Corporation. -MLBTR $20M x 6 is an outright steal!
  2. It looks like the lack of preparation probably had something to do with the bad starts by all of our rotation, so far, but it's hard to know for sure. Here's a comp between 2018 and 2019... ST'ing IP 2018 & 2019 16.0> 12.0 Porcello 14.2> 9.0 Sale 12.0> 6.2 Price INJ > 15.0 ERod 16.2(TBR)> 7.0 Eovaldi
  3. Our pen, before today.... 12.2 IP 4 ER (2.84 ERA) 13 H+BB (1.03 WHIP)
  4. Our rotation, so far... IP ER H+BB 3.0 7 8 Sale 5.0 6 10 Eovaldi 4.1 5 11 ERod 2.2 4 10 Porcello (+5 uneasrned runs thanks to JD Total: 15 IP 22 ER 39 H+BB 13.20 ERA 2.60 WHIP Lovely, isn't it?
  5. Let's hope the plan pays off in October, but it sure ,looks bad, now.
  6. "Once you lose your velocity, you can never get it back." (I can't remember who said that.)
  7. I still have a shot at winning... Duke wins vs anyone but Virginia. OR Auburn beats Duke.
  8. Probably because the Yankee board already booted him out for failure to understand basic logic.
  9. You are a total clown. I never said that. Please, take a reading comprehension class.
  10. 100% to winner- $240 ($245- my $5 entry fee).
  11. We thought Devers was bad at 3B!
  12. I'd rather have Betts get more RBIs. Studies show your best hitter does best up second. I see no reason to doubt the numbers. Beni is pretty damn good at getting on base, too.
  13. He had a bad game. He pitched great last year, until he got hurt. I expect a very good to great season from him. He has nasty stuff but nibbles too much. I keep thinking that can be corrected, and he seemed a little better last year. I guess I'm just not getting all the doom & gloom after just 3 games. Bad teams win sometimes.The O's beat the Yanks, today. It's a long season, and we have a great team. I'd say, "Relax!" but I know it won't man a thing to many here.
  14. This is why I avoid the game threads.
  15. We would have won 110 had Betts led off last year!
  16. Barnes since 2015... ERA 5.44 4.05 3.88 3.65 WHIP 1.65 1.40 1.22 1.27 K/9 8.2 9.6 10.7 14.0 K/W 2.6 2.3 3.0 3.1 HR/9 1.9 0.8 0.9 0.7 H/9 11.7 8.4 7.4 6.9 xFIP 5.23 3.72 3.33 2.71 Almost every category has show complete or near complete and steady improvement.
  17. I'm the only one in my pool with 3 teams still alive. I have Duke beating Kentucky with VA winning tonight. If Duke beats KY, I don't even need VA to win. $240 on 49 entries at $5. I've won 4 brackets since my first one back in 1980-1981 (Isiah Thomas).
  18. That's my only concern on that area.
  19. I'm not worried about our rotation either. I think I have more confidence in the rotation than the offense, and I'm pretty damn confident our offense will be better than last year.
  20. Hope ERod gets off to a better start than Sale & Eovaldi did.
  21. The pen & Moreland. Who-da-thunk-it?
  22. Nasty breaking ball and a 97 mph fastball. What's not to like? Barnes has improved 3 straight years. Give him a chance.
