I still remember the blurb about Finely in the Elias Baseball Analyst. I think his overall career is very..as the kids would say...sus.

Davis' decline happened when he was on "the drugs". One of my biggest wishes is that a current member of the BBHoF would have enough guts to admit they used steroids. Between the roids, HGH, uppers and the painkillers pretty much everybody was, and probably still is, on something. Bonds' issue isn't the steroids, it's his personality. The fans have forgiven plenty of roiders.

The classic player x isn't just playing poorly, he's hiding an injury! Because the team and the trainers are idiots who wouldn't notice.

And if competitor A gets a B value player who cares if we get a 5% discount on a C level player?

So they can trade players to the teams the O's are competing against?

He's a poor defensive second baseman. (by at least one metric literally the worst) Mountcastle swings at a lot of garbage pitches. Pointing out facts isn't bashing.

I was asleep for a lot of it. Does making a play make someone a good fielder?

Were you confused by me saying and/or? He can't field and right now Mateo can't do either.

Right, they should run out vets that can't hit and/or field instead.

I wonder if the Mets can get thier overage down to the next lower level? That'd be something. Not that Cohen can't afford it of course.

Please stand up, please stand up.

That's a bit better for the Mets than it sounds, since they are so far into overage.

Then I'll back you on the rest.

Maybe? I don't know, for me that would be such a momenta difference in value that I'd be hard pressed to come at it from that angle.

It sounds like the issue is with Scherzer. So changing the offer won't change that.

Do you think they are calling for middle-middle?

I'm firmly in camp a tuxedo needs a bowtie.

I think I'm pretty skeptical by nature but I can't think of a good reason for them to invent a case of vertigo for Mountcastle to suffer from.

Or you know, he was suffering from vertigo. They didn't need to fabricate a reason to send him down.

DL Hall is throwing 96 and striking out 18 year olds.

Because they aren't siding with the writers and actors.

It only took a second to go over the wall!

Right, it takes two and he isn't all that interested in dancing. Just like it was too expensive during the offseason.

And everyone agreed with that at the time of the trade. So why mention it again?

? I don't recall anyone having an issue with the trade.
