Nowhere near the same impact as his contract. And performance for that contract. Trevor Bauer has a reputation for being difficult on all fronts, yet look at the haul he brought to Cleveland. If Price was still putting up Cy Young numbers during his arbitration years, he could stick forks in Eck’s eyes and set fire to Eck’s hair without any negative impact on his trade value...
-
And yet this type of performance isn’t common, even for elite prospects (who aren’t rookies for the Rockies)...

I’m putting in my application for GM...

I think they don’t deal Betts if they don’t have to. But I also don’t think every available roster spot will be filled internally...
-
Complete non-prospect with a .760 OPS in the minors who was unranked by every scouting organization, and he gave them no reason to rank him. But in MLB, he is on an absolute tear. He homered again tonight, giving him 7 in his last 6 games. His OPS in the previous 5 games was 2.098. As he just had the one home run tonight, it might come down a bit.
-
If they reset, I think dealing Betts might be s necessity unless JDM opts out, which is unlikely...
-
He’s a positionless Three True Outcome hitter. His ceiling is Chris Carter...
-
Travis’ ceiling is bench bat/backup 1b/fourth OF whose limited to LF...

Casas was in high school two years ago. Ockimey isn’t really a prospect because while he has power, he’s not much of a hitter. And defensively, he couldn’t catch a cold if he was naked in Norway...
-
Logan Allen Michael Kopech was last year but is out with an injury...
-
And why not at this point?
-
Who was the one from BDC who passed away this past year? He was a good one too. RIP. The three Yankee regulars on this board (Jacko, Carpin, blksomething) aren’t Yankee trolls despite blatantly bleeding pinstripes. I’ll take 50 more of them over one Angry Bird (name subtly hidden, but not really)...
-
Reportedly they’re trying to get under $200mill, not $50mill. They’ll trade Betts and non-tender Bradley, Hembree, and Wright. They might even trade Barnes. I doubt they move Bogaerts, but it is possible. I doubt they have to move Vazquez or Benintendi. They’ll also obviously let all the free agents walk, likely with no Qualifying Offers. Not that any would get one under any other set of circumstances...
-
Not me. The only reason I liked the Price deal was I figured he would opt out after 3 years...
-
I wonder if that budget expectation (reset!) means some are going. Betts and Bradley are easy guesses. But if they are really dialing back, and Price and Sale are tough moves, does that mean Bogaerts is on the block as well?
-
And we have a winner!!! The Red Sox do lead the American League with 419 bullpen appearances (and that’s before adding another half dozen today). And yet they are 7th in innings from the pen - and last in the AL East. (Opener strategies do impact here.) That might say something since it probably also means the Sox are at or near the bottom of the league in bullpen IP/Appearance. Maybe because they aren’t dry effective? Or is Cora too overeactive?
-
I think the Sox have already quit. They’re not hitting Chris Owings in leadoff because it’s a proven path to success...
-
Oh we’re past that. In fact, I’m not so sure he hasn’t already done it...
-
Helped by Holt not making contact...
-
Blown save, Matt Barnes. The Reds just released David Hernandez, who has some solid peripherals. Yet I bet anything Dombrowski passes...
-
8.01. The teenage non-pitchers the Sox traded for him might not be that ineffective...
-
Cashner needs to throw 12 straight scoreless innings to get his ERA down to that range...
-
Because DD is waving the white flag on 2019 and seeing what his few in-season moves are worth, if anything? Maybe Cody Asche is next....
-
Going out on a limb here, but as Kluber is on a rehab assignment, he really didn’t care who was hitting what off him, as long as it didn’t hurt...
-
Dombrowski did draft him and keep him on an MLB roster when Rick was only 2 years removed from high school...
