if they lose 3 more pitchers to long-term injuries and a couple every day starters i guess it could sort of happen -
baseball in 2015 is so annoying
-
Chris Johnson isn't a very good 1B
-
and Markakis probably gets his hit back now
-
how shallow must Maybin have been playing to reach that ball
-
is Happ ineligible? and no Eloy is a slight surprise like, i'd sooner trade Almora with little hesitation
-
his first HR came a pitch after ump called strike 3 a foul
-
all i ask for in this series is that when we have Jose Abreu in a 2-strike count in the 9th inning, we don't give him an elevated fastball
-
he's oft-injured and has a -1.2 RA9-WAR this year
-
it really makes you think... http://www.canford.com/userfiles/images/the-thinker-statue-flickr-satyakam-khadikar-480.jpg
-
on a related note, the Cardinals [expletive] team ERA is 2.63
-
hitters watch his pitches because they know they can't hit him (.141! AVG), is the theory i'll go with

Clayton Dick

well i guess we did not learn our lesson from the whole Goldschmidt incident...
-
so he'll be Justin Grimm / Cody Allen then if we could get more shutdown relievers like that for live-armed teenagers in SS, i'd do that until i ran out of teenagers, which is an admittedly simple illustration for how relatively little i value upside prayers like Steele & Sands...weren't we kinda upset about giving up on Jeferson Mejia's potential?
-
Edwards is probably an MLB-ready RP right now with a starter's arsenal and can conceivably do the Carlos Martinez route of easing into an eventual rotation role, which seems *far* more valuable than whatever the Donnie Dewees dreams are...Dewees was the BA #67 prospect in his own awful draft class; where's the excitement?
-
i fully agree with the second statement, but i'm interested in seeing your list without Edwards i see it like: Schwarber McKinney Torres Happ Eloy? and then that's about the lowest possible spot for me, but he's still probably top-5 unless there's reason to believe he won't ever rediscover command or anything like that
-
just drop Peacock, raw's ahead of me in the standings and even i don't feel like his or anybody's team would have any type of advantage for being allowed to carry Brad Peacock for free basically i'm saying Brad Peacock sucks

Minor League Discussion & Boxes, 7-6-15
sneakypower replied to CaliforniaRaisin's topic in Cubs Minor League Talk
Motte and Doolittle, Sergio Santos also come to mind -
Leake and Latos do nothing for me. Love the idea of Brantley ZiPS ROS projects Latos for same FIP as Hamels
-
my long-standing fetishizing of pitchers that hit well factoring that, and the WAR that actually matters, he's like a 2.5-3 win pitcher for his career (and Clayton Richard/Tsuyoshi Wada aren't) and should be exceedingly cheap to acquire
-
Indians are interesting, at 5.5 back of WC i wonder what availability of Carrasco/Salazar/Brantley/McAllister will be Mat Latos/Yovani Gallardo/Mike Leake seem ideal targets in terms of value, though
-
my assumption was carnage all over the field yet just one booking, but i might be way off
-
prepubescents Willy Adames and Franklin Barreto were both the center piece of significant trades, of course he can be
