  1. Matt Shaw has 1.4 fWAR in 168 GP, currently sitting at replacement level with a statcast nearly covered in blue paint, his role can just as capably be filled with Jorge Mateo types you can find anywhere; i'm trading him for the first offer that presents any actual value if i'm to be honest no real sense in clutching tightly to Skip Schumaker
  2. Catcher add: Shea Langeliers drop: Cal Raleigh Bench add: Sal Stewart drop: Jac Caglianone
  3. new pet peeve is the determination with which Sutcliffe will never learn to pronounce Ballesteros even remotely correct
  4. Cruz probably lost a couple runs defensively in Skenes's first start where he had two of the worst plays in CF in one inning that you'll ever see
  5. Mara & Rez declare for the draft
  6. just a minor note but those other orgs. win playoff series sometimes and have currently top-10 and not bottom-10 farm systems
  7. Rosario's a good analogue too because it's the exact type of prospect the FO has seemingly zero use for, loud tools upside plays are the first ones we dump off whether if it's for an eventual 7-1/3 IP reliever, 8-1/3 IP reliever or simply as a throw-ins of a larger deal i'd still rather have the guy slugging .614 in AA than those seven innings of Eli Morgan, personally
  8. Jacob Webb as your leverage arm/fireman is less than ideal
  9. this guy seems exciting, wonder what his back story is, have to assume he required a steep cost for them to acquire
  10. i feel quite a bit worse about Cabrera now, but conversely much better re Shota:
  11. thanks for killing the vibe dude, i don't need to know we're likely trading this guy for eight point three three innings of Mike Soroka
  12. i'm still living off the hopium high of seeing this comp 2 years ago
  13. i'd reason that getting jerked around from org to org may have some effect on that we're way too nimble or whatever buzzword Jed is spamming these days to properly compensate somebody who has produced results within the org and are on an eternal cheapskate bargain hunting mission that subjects us to all these castoff loser retreads
  14. we didn't see any need to try to retain pitchers who were incredibly effective like Keller, Pomeranz, Kittredge and now i've gotta pretend i know what a Caleb Barnes or Robert Rollison is
  15. Michigan's best player playing on one leg really killed a lot of what they like to do offensively he had been 59% from 3pt the previous 10 games and UConn basically freely welcomed him to take jump shots, missing all 5 including an airball on the last attempt
  16. "I’m ready for the IRS to come in and open up the books and show what people spent versus what the spin zone has said they spent,” May said. the Pete Nakos report suggested Michigan enjoyed just a slight advantage over B1G contemporaries not in the slightest! 😃
