  1. Caminero and Contreras' home run trots are basically Key & Peele sketches
  2. Taylor Walls' defensive metrics this season and throughout his career are... confusing. Wow.
  3. Manfred is going to forgo a salary cap and funnel all the best players to big markets himself after he sees the ratings of Rays v Brewers
  4. It was a super weird year, but he did have a .380 obp before the trade. I would think he'd still get 8 figures for at least one year.
  5. River Ryan is going to retire at 37 years old, still listed as a top 100 prospect.
  6. The arrogance of having Betts and Muncy on the left side of your infield, and it working wonderfully, is a bit maddening. The Betts part specifically is also very cool, but annoying.
  7. There's a zero percent chance we sign Morejon as a reliever. However, as a starter, I could see it. He'd still be expensive, but that's a potential top of rotation starter at way less than a top of rotation price.
  8. Taylor Ward maybe played himself into a one year contract. Not sure what to make of his 2026 season, but he's theoretically an option.
  9. Tucker has now surpassed 5 homeruns at Dodger Stadium this year
  10. It's a good year for a small market v small market World Series. Not that I think it actually matters that much but just in case. Give me Rays over Brewers in a gentlemen's sweep.
  11. Really? I'd say that's about right, maybe just a little low. He is coming off back-to-back sub 19% K rate seasons. The GB rate is crazy but he's not getting a huge contract. I also think the prospect cost (Rojas) appears to be more expensive now compared to how he was viewed when traded.
  12. Jed obviously talked a lot about pitching in his year-end PC, including the amount of homers given up. The way he talked about Holmes made it seem like whatever happened the last few weeks didn't totally sour the relationship? Wouldn't shock me if both he and Peterson get done before the lockout.
  13. I like that our offense will get to play in 70+ degree weather. Their bullpen is terrifying but as we saw last year, there is a limit to how much the main guys can be used in 3 consecutive games, if there is a game 3. Then there's our pitching... I'm hoping for batted ball luck Mt vote is eliminated in NLDS.
  14. He was pretty good for them last year. This season is most certainly a change, unfortunately
