    Corner OFer. Athletic but not fast enough for CF. Average arm but seemingly accurate. Obviously won't have prototypical power for a COF but if the OBP continues in the majors, he could be a 2nd division starter or even a starter for a team that has good power elsewhere in the line-up. Certainly a 4th OFer if the bat plays at the next level as it appears it will. His tippy top ceiling at the plate is likely Zobrist.

    1) Trade for Doolittle and drop Richard. Now you've already got Strop / Doolittle / Rondon at the back end of the pen, which is downright nasty. 2) Ride it out with Grimm. His stuff is too good for him to be bad. 3) Add the winner of the Patton / Edwards / Nathan / Peralta sweepstakes and jettison...I have no idea. Everyone else is pretty decent. Cahill, maybe?

    Which is still horsefeathering awesome.

    meh. bummer

    I find it awesome that I have nearly zero stress watching games like this so far this year.
  7. Tim
    aw, hell. That sucks.

    I could swear I read an article about shortstops fielding smashes through their zone. I think Addison came out looking really good. :)

    At least that should be the end for Strasburg. At 105 pitches, even Dusty would be stretching it to put him back out there for the 8th.

    oh, and, LOL@(vinestal, ski & other chicken littles) It's a great baseball game vs a great pitcher. Enjoy it.

    wow, what a throw from bryant. He's out.
  12. Tim
    In other words, if you take out the Cubs/Cards games for each team, we've played a harder schedule.
  13. Tim
    How about we stop looking Revere look like an actual baseball player?
  14. Tim
    Well, just shut them out and we win.

    We were so good at stealing bases last year. What happened?
  16. Tim
    Half a hey ride, too. Nice.

    Always good to get started with a dong.

    wow...Teuvo's stock fell fast.

    The news about Villanueva nearing a rehab assignment got me thinking about his position and someone in a similar position as him. He's going to have to either be put on the 25 man roster or taken off the 40 man once he's done with his rehab. I do wonder if they'll put him on the 25 man for at least a little bit. He was impressive in spring training until he got hurt and the Cubs could easily waive TFed to make room for him. The comparison in my mind is to Szczur. With his time on the roster this year, Caesar has increased his value quite a bit. I have no idea how other teams would value him at this point. I'd imagine that he's gone from being viewed as a replacement level guy that most every team already has in their system to being a potentially valuable role player / short-side platoon player. I'm not sure what that is worth, but it isn't zero any longer. I'm multitasking here, so this isn't as well fleshed out as I'd like. But I do wonder what the trade value of these guys is now and what it could be at the deadline if they produce in spot roles on the MLB roster.

    He's still on the 40 man roster. So he'll still need to be passed through waivers or added to the major league team.
  21. Tim
    Also, he said Christian Villanueva has been doing BP and is close to starting a rehab assignment. Hmm...given than Villanueva was out of options, has he been passed through waivers after his injury? I guess I can just look to see if he's on the current 40 man roster to answer that question.

    Overall, possible bullpen reinforcements: Matusz Nathan Crow Peralta Edwards Patton Pena
  23. Tim
    I'm actually a lot more hopeful about Nathan than Crow. However, I still want to sign this guy. According to Heyman, Holland is targeting an August return, which would make him eligible in the playoffs. Do it, Theo, make it happen.

    It's almost enough to feel sorry for the Dodgers. But not quite.
  25. Tim
    That was quick. And Javy is awesome at everything but swinging a bat.
