  1. I don't. They could have traded or non-tendered him at the end of the season. Hiura was a concern for 2019, not 2018.
  2. The Brewers were actively shopping him. I think it is fair to say that they wanted him gone.
  3. In claiming Billy Hamilton the Braves decided to spend around 2M for a couple months of a defensive replacement/pinch runner.
  4. If you are pitching for the O's you are going to face two of those three on a regular basis.
  5. I think the Giants were really desperate for outfielders and got lucky. But maybe I'm wrong.
  6. Even Daniel Cabrera has a hit as a professional baseball player.
  7. If I were a Sox fan I would also be encouraging Davis to not give up.
  8. Mountcastle, Diaz, Hays if he could stay healthy. I'm all for aggressively promoting position players.
  9. The guys still in the minors.
  10. I think he would have been a good story, puttered along at replacement level and the same folks complaining now would still be complaining "Why didn't he play that way for us" "We should have given him more of a chance."
  11. I saw a list on Reddit of the only pitchers to have multiple immaculate innings. Lefty Grove Sandy Koufax Nolan Ryan Randy Johnson Max Scherzer Chris Sale Kevin Gausman
  12. I can hardly keep track of my own predictions. Unless someone says something truly outrageous, like how Cobb's strong second half meant he was tradeable, I just data dump it.
  13. Do you think he'd be playing like this if he had been given a chance last season? I think odds are very good that if he had been given a chance he would have been unimpressive.
  14. Immaculate inning for Gausman. https://streamable.com/vppic
  15. No, I was replying to your argument. When you factor in the age difference, the 603 OPS Yaz put up in Bowie, and what Stewart did in the majors you can't credibly say that Yaz outperformed him. 2018, all levels: Yaz, 27, 753 OPS (AA and AAA) Stewart, 24, 716 OPS in AAA, 890 OPS majors. Yaz didn't outperform Stewart.
  16. Stewart put up a half win in the majors in 17 games while being three years younger than Yaz. How exactly did Yaz outperform him?
  17. But honestly, how can anyone look at the stats and the scouting reports on Yaz and predict anything like what we've seen?
  18. I think the issue is more trotting out DSJR than not holding onto Yaz.
  19. I read a quote on here a couple days ago, about I think it was Justin Turner. To paraphrase, if this is Yaz's ceiling than the ceiling of every player in AAA is an All-star.
  20. ? Manfred and the other owners could block the Angelos brothers from officially taking over and/or block a move. There is a reason only one team has moved in forty years (a team owned by MLB). You think the other owners are looking at ticket sales when contemplating owners?
  21. I dislike it when ML teams rehab players during the playoffs.
  22. I'll agree to that. Some neighbors yards are starting to flood.
