Might not have been his goal by that point.

Cohen fired him quickly enough.

I hope that Kjerstad works as a Santander replacement. If he doesn't that puts a real damper on last year's draft.

Could mean dozens of more fans a game.

Looks like the Mets are going to be in the market for a new GM. https://mobile.twitter.com/jeffpassan/status/1351379873797967872?s=21

Sure. If he ends up having no plus tools and only one above average one he isn't going to have a ton of value.

You aren't going to find many players that generate value in every aspect of the game. I'm not attached to Santander but his OBP isn't a make or break issue for me.

Does he? If he provides plus power and plus defense he doesn't need good OBP to have value.

Two legs, two heels. ?

They've had a lot of help. It isn't as if the O's are breaking new ground here. In the last decade or so these types of tanking movements have become pretty standard in American proffesional sports. Look at how hard the 76's tanked(three consecutive seasons playing under .250 ball) and they haven't even made a conference finals since.

You need to work on your music posting.

All the O's prospects are ranked higher than 70th so your point isn't relevant.

Nice. I find it interesting that Heston Kjerstad is ranked that highly. I don't think he was that well regarded before the draft and he certainly didn't do anything after the draft. Just a reaction to being drafted 1-2?

I think you misplaced your decimal point. You don't actually think that Wells has a one in five chance of racking up 10 career rWAR do you?

I don't think any of the names you mentioned are call up and keep up guys. I think it very unlikely that the O's are worried about who Wells is pitching for in seven years.

I was pretty close my one year of little league. I was good at leaning into inside pitches tho.

If a strike is a pitcher's pitch are you not better off taking it? You get three strikes, make him throw it two more times.

I enjoy paying more than I have to for things.

I'd say maybe even higher given the differences in the two.

He's just filling innings.

I think if Kjerstad shows up depends on how much workload he has for his Masters.

They went to arbitration with Joseph over 300K.

Odds they trade him before the hearing?

In hindsight I wasn't angry enough about that one.

Nice of the O's.
