2025 MLB season news and notes

Winners and losers through MLB's first six weeks -
So you would rather the owner pocket the money?
-
Probably because they've grown accustomed to being in the top 3 or so in payroll and no longer are.

According to this article, his fastball averaged 94mph in his last start and he's averaged 95.9mph on it this season. Red Sox ace’s eventful day included first-pitch HR, liner to nose and velocity drop

Sounds good, but it's not reality. This doesn't include last year, but that only adds to the point. In the wild card era (1995-present), 26 of the 29 teams to win a World Series ranked in the top half of MLB in opening day payroll. In the same time frame, 20 of the 29 World Series champions ranked in the top 10 in opening day pay payroll. Only three World Series champions—the 2017 Astros, 2015 Royals and 2003 Marlins—ranked in the bottom half of MLB in opening day payroll. The 2017 Astros (Justin Verlander) and 2015 Royals (Johnny Cueto, Ben Zobrist) both made midseason trades that put them into the top half of payroll by the end of the season. Only one team, the 2003 Marlins, won a World Series after ranking in the bottom 10 in opening day payroll.

2.5, but who's counting.......

Sounds like they're afraid of pissing devers off again.
-
I don't even want to know how you know that! 😁
-
His velocity was down 2mph in his last start. Not uncommon for some arm fatigue
-
I agree, management really screwed the pooch on this one.
-
Pretty sure devers is a sensitive guy as well........
-
I would agree with that approach if/when they fall out of playoff contention.
-
Nonsense. Go back over the last 25yrs or so and tell me how many teams that didn't spend big that won it all. Some may have been spending big to retain their own players instead of free agents, but not many teams have won it all without spending.
-
But, will it lead to rings is the point.
-
That's not what I asked. Do you think he should learn on the fly during the season?
-
How many teams have we seen win it all without a few high priced additions?
-
Then you will miss out on most of the best free agents........

Red Sox need to come to Garrett Whitlock realization before bullpen crumbles

Is there reason to be concerned with crochet's drop in velocity? Red Sox ace’s eventful day included first-pitch HR, liner to nose and velocity drop - masslive.com -
Do you think they should force devers to learn first base on the fly during the season?
