Yeah, if PCA can run a 90 ops+ he's insanely valuable. Heck, he already has 1.2 WAR according to Baseball reference (1.4 defensive). That defensive WAR is tied for 10th in all of baseball, despite him playing 30 or more games less than the guys above him. Dalton Varsho was worth 3.9 WAR last year while running an 84 ops+. He had 2.8 in defensive WAR. That's what I think PA'S near term potential is. -
As they should be
-
Even if they're not HRs, I feel that a lot of balls into that corner are still going to be doubles
-
I wonder how much a change of scenery would help a guy like Robert. Honestly it's gotta be hard playing on a team that bad.
-
yeah, one trip to the IL, or a week with only an appearance or two and he's not going to hit it
-
Wisdom is hot. Find someone to take him
-
off a pretty good lefty too
-
Cubs clearly hated Morel and are now playing better since he's been traded
-
idiot fan possibly costs the Cubs a run
-

Watched some Rugby 7s the past couple days, fun stuff.

More teams wanting him = better prospect coming back... in theory. Or they're all interested because Jed is only asking for an 18 y/o MIF or a 25 y/o reliver who strikes a lot of guys out, but also walks 2 batters/inning

Is this a precursor to them moving an MLB Outfielder and calling someone up? Did Canario tear his hammy and they wanted depth? Who knows!

Midseason Prospect List Updates

game over... thanks Hector!
-
Seiya rung up going exactly as far as Turang went...
-
Leiter looks awesome since coming off the IL
-
Yeah, that's the only one that comes close. Even then, a decent starter can be held up by a good bullpen or a good defense.
-
There is also no other position in football or any other sport that has the importance of a football team's QB. The rest of a team can be mediocre and you will still have a good shot st the playoffs with a good QB.

from your lips to Jed's ears
-
boy, Assad doesn't have it right now
-
also, MLB has almost certainly deadened the ball, so a lot of those fly balls that were heading over the fence last year are warning track shots this year

Fall of the house of Busch-er
Rex Buckingham replied to Transmogrified Tiger's topic in General Baseball Talk
that's a load of crap and we all know it. That was their planned story when someone called them on it -
I wouldn't be surprised at a Milwaukee sweep, finally bringing this season to the fiery crash and burn we have all seen coming for 2 months
-
I know we're trying to avoid megathreads but...
