    I wasn't counting on him for much. A June return would be quite welcome.
  2. JoeBrady
    Janek is not impressing me, but Paredes is a good fit.
  3. JoeBrady
    I doubt he watches. He probably just looks at the score on CBS before deciding whether or not to troll us.
  4. JoeBrady
    It was only 1-2 weeks back when folks wanted Tolle sent to the RS BP.
  5. JoeBrady
    Yes and yes.
  6. JoeBrady
    I don't see him ranked highly anywhere.
  7. JoeBrady
    It's an interesting turn of events, given that much of the off-season discussion was that we were way too lefty-oriented. I'd like them to re-visit my Duran for Vientos/Baty suggestion.
  8. JoeBrady
    They were never going to get a return commensurate with his 9.0 bWAR. Even his 4.7 2025 bWAR would be acceptable to most. IMHO, the biggest trade issue was whether teams perceived him as a LF or a CF. You seldom get a haul for a LF. The drop from 23 DRS in 2024 to 9 in 2025 is significant. But no one was trading for his 2024 stats.

    Tibbs is not a top prospect.
  10. JoeBrady
    Without ever having been in the same room with Breslow, I feel pretty comfortable saying I know nothing about him.

    I've already acknowledged Bogaerts better reliability. But one of the injuries was Story diving for a GB. The arm qualifies as injury-prone, but the dive does not.
  12. JoeBrady
    It's such a beautiful and fundamental thing to see when they watch the ball hit the bat.
  13. JoeBrady
    Already acknowledged. Story is better, and Bogaerts is more reliable.
  14. JoeBrady
    Not in the comparison I just made.
  15. JoeBrady
    If that's the main argument, it is more than enough reason to pass on him. Unless you think has some Vulcan mind control thing going on, just hire the best hitting coach you can find.
  16. JoeBrady
    Just cherry-picking for the folks that think Bogaerts is way better, Story has historically been better. Bogaerts has historically been much healthier. Even for your selection, Story has a 3.3 bWAR/162 (per B-R) and Bogaerts has a 3.0. Other than Story diving for a GB, he'd have had a higher total bWAR.
  17. JoeBrady
    Just circling back on this, I wish that some of the fans tried to apply some logic to it. When Story goes cold, there is every possibility he is in permanent decline. When it happens to Duran, he is far too young to have simply lost his skills.
  18. JoeBrady
    There is a portion of every fan base that will write off players after a 0-4 day. The RSN has more of them, but every team has some.
  19. JoeBrady
    I don't mind players making outs, but when the catcher has to slide to block it from being a wild pitch, I get a little irked.

    Answer-Spring Training Alex, I'll go all-in on 'Which period of time are players in 'the best shape of their life'?
  21. JoeBrady
    I could make a WS favorite from the number of guys that have started slow. I could make a WS favorite from the number of guys that disappeared in the 2nd half of 2025. That's the nature of BB.
  22. JoeBrady
    During the first year of any l/t contract, that's usually true. In the last year of the contract, it is seldom true. If Contreras had Bregman's numbers, would anyone be happy with the trade?
  23. JoeBrady
    I agree. The historical difference between the two is less than people think. Story has a much, much higher bWAR/650 PAs than Bogaerts, but Bogaerts has missed far fewer games.
  24. JoeBrady
    A lot of that depth was overrated. The list included Sandoval, Houck and Crawford, who were far from sure things.
