    Anyone remember when some fans wanted him promoted to be a relief pitcher?
  2. JoeBrady
    .778 last year. About a .900 against lefties over the past three years. He's not THE answer, but even if we land Adames, we might need a 2nd bat. And the cost should be small.
  3. JoeBrady
    Paredes doesn't have a significant contract. Semien & Chapman are difficult to to add given their age & contract, and especially because they don't really add much, if any, offense. BB and Adames are worth discussing, but are kind of expensive. I'd prefer Adames.
  4. JoeBrady
    A week ago, some in here were making fun of the idea of Chapman + Adames. Adames now has 6 HRs in his last 14 games. And Chapman has a solid .762 OPS over the same period. That said, Adames is the better target, though SF is far less likely to trade him now.

    LOL! You must be reading my posts in MLB Rumors. I mentioned him earlier today. Perfect fit. Adell for Masa, we eat a ton of money, and we give up a couple of decent lottery tickets.
  6. JoeBrady
    Professional agencies, that have been around many decades, rank the prospects.
  7. JoeBrady
    KC was ranked #4 by BA, #7 by MLB, and #3 by BP. He was voted minor league player of the year. The list of minor league players of the year include: Frank Thomas Salmon Manny R Jeter Andruw Jones Mauer Trout Vlad Witt Dozens of other AS players You're trying to make this like the RS were making up his value. Everyone on the entire planet loved this guy.

    From what I've read, a drop in angle results in lower velocity, but higher spin. I think the more pertinent question is whether or not this was deliberate or forced as a result of an injury.
  9. JoeBrady
    Of course they have been a disappointment, so far. But you are the only person on the entire planet, no, in the entire solar system, that would've kept Miedroth instead of KC. That's simply not a real thing.
  10. JoeBrady
    Sending them the #4 and #14 prospects in BB instead of sending someone maybe ranked #200 is the single craziest thing I have ever heard of. Here is what the offer then becomes: KC #4 Mayer #14 Teel #25 Montgomery #66 And that doesn't strike you as a bit of an overpay?
  11. JoeBrady
    Mayer and Campbell should have been the pieces. Don't take this personally, but if CWS asked for Meidroth, and you countered with Mayer and KC onstead of Meidroth, that's kind of insane. But I'd love to have heard that conversation. "We would like Meidroth" "No, but would you accept the #4 and #14 prospect in all of baseball instead?"
  12. JoeBrady
    If you don't like Crochet, I have no idea how to process that.
  13. JoeBrady
    Insane that they wait until June to develop a strategy.
  14. JoeBrady
    It sounds like one more tweet designed to draw attention. I doubt that even a single person talks to Lance Dobbins, or even knows who he is. And I never like when family members make themselves part of the game,
  15. JoeBrady
    "Placing 100% of the pitching struggles"? Our rotation has been so good this month that we can't even blame our record on losing one of the best SPs in baseball. "Meanwhile, Dobbins ...immediately found success with the Cardinals"? Dobbins had a 4.13/3.87 ERA/FIP with the Red Sox and a 4.50/4.58 with the Cardinals. Has the world officially agreed to abandon numerics?
  16. JoeBrady
    From the article: Pitchers, like Garrett Crochet, who lowered his arm angle during his breakout 2024 season, and again during his excellent follow-up last season, to great success.
  17. JoeBrady
    That's why it is mostly a waste of time to get overly amped or overly negative too early. For hitters, there is almost always ebb and flow, usually reverting to last years stats. You have to watch out for very young players and older players.
  18. JoeBrady
    Just an example of someone that needed to say something negative. The very fact that he needed to refer to Contreras as an ex-catcher was a dead giveaway.
  19. JoeBrady
    Guys like that generally wind up pretty close to where they are expected to be. Pitching is different, but the hitters that are key are the ones with more variance. That's usually the oldest and youngest players. Anthony, Mayer, Durbin and Narvaez. Story would've been included, because of his age, but age might've already taken care of that.
  20. JoeBrady
    That's why these early-seasons polls are worthless. Our rotation (B-), including Bello as an SP, over the past 28 days is probably the best in BB. Ceddanne (C+) should be on the AS team. Duran (F) is #10 in fWAR in May.
  21. JoeBrady
    And I've heard Cubs fans complaining about the Cubs signing Bregman. Funny stuff.
  22. JoeBrady
    See? It still continues. People thought I was making it up when I said fans will complain about getting nothing for Devers, and then complain about trading the future superstars we got for Devers. But all that aside, even the worst Yankee trolls should know better than to blame Breslow for trading Betts.
  23. JoeBrady
    I saw the same comments in 2004, 2007, 2013 and 2018.
  24. JoeBrady
    Are you implying that I am still annoyed at our crack medical staff because they allegedly told Buchholz in 2011 that 'we don't MRI boo-boos'?
  25. JoeBrady
    Sometimes it is just one simple fix.
