  1. been more than 30 days since this, so bench drop: Uncle Ben's Rice (NYY) bench add: Ronald Acuña Jr. (ATL)
  2. what's really wild to me is over the last month, Ben Brown is top-5 (!) in all MLB for K-BB%, xFIP & SIERA so i do feel better seeing that despite a horrid 6.20 ERA caused by extreme LOB%, BABIP, the best available evidence suggests he's likely headed for much better days going forward if he continues the same processes he's doing; but i do accept the possibility that fielding-independent stats may struggle to gauge extreme 2-pitch starters look at this elite company though, i'm still plenty content to play out the string for a while forcing him to tinker a lil bit in the background with a show-me change or whatever
  3. add LF Daulton Varsho , drop LF Teoscar Hernández
  4. please: add LF Teoscar Hernandez, drop LF Yordan Alvarez add DH Shohei Ohtani, drop DH Mike Trout updated team total $925 for my future reference: 2 lineup transactions used after this submits, 1 bench change used
  5. 9 hard hits & 4 BBs off Skenes is kinda shocking
  6. his recruiting class also featured Fields, Lawrence, Zach Wilson, Trey Lance..
  7. the Corey Patterson hype realized actually gets pretty close; stylistically,Victorino & Ellsbury work pretty well from recent memory i had seen it mentioned somewhere that he applied a swing change around 7/27 last year and that gives even more optimism he can sustain elite value over a bigger sample
  8. Triantos is a far worse fielder than Workman, and he's off to a terrible start hitting
  9. i think they missed the boat on this, the time to do this was last spring despite his struggles as a show of faith for his ability (also, why aren't they doing this for Shaw as we speak?) you don't wait til he's peaking as top-10 WAR in the early going to start conversations, agents are going to probably laugh in your face
  10. macedonian scammer emails are easier to parse than whatever it is you've tried to say here
  11. bench drop: Encarnacion-Strand bench add: Uncle Ben's Rice (NYY)
  12. Mauricio Dubon said Smith can hit 60 bombs! i just hate that trade so, so much *given that* we're signalling loudly & clearly that we never really plan to swim in the deep end of FA, so we fans can safely expect Tucker to walk and that we'll not seriously pursue Vlad types with any type of realistic intent Tucker will be a nice 5 win player for a year for a 83 win team and we smoothed over Houston's rebuild for the privilege of that
  13. what had looked like a nice quality win for Michigan might ultimately be effectively wiped out by Mick Cronin's ongoing series of public meltdowns sending UCLA into freefall
  14. wondering who'll be available for the Lions at #32 😏 ironically i like Jack Sawyer as a fit
  15. it's pretty funny to think that an American could possibly ever retreat to a lefty ideological bubble, we're propagandized so effectively and comprehensively you'd have to take some really extreme measures to avoid encountering conservative/corporate framing of most any issue i think the biggest difference really is just that this particular site doesn't give special precedence to the $8 anti-social freaks who want to follow people around shouting incendiary taunts
  16. that's comfortably a bottom-3 roster talent-wise, i don't know that it's fair to suggest Pierce is a cautionary tale due to W-L results
  17. or Arthur Smith
  18. it's hilarious that there are Jed Hoyer stans please sir, may i have another 83 win season?
  19. Michigan's receivers totaled 35 yards on 8 targets yesterday the Moore era probably hinges on finding a proper OC this winter, i think
