I've never seen the appeal. I don't think the raw stuff is good enough to compensate for the spotty command.

Oh, he got arrested for it in 2020.

Sorry I can't because of the NSFW part. Cal Quantrill made reference to a Reese McGuire incident from a few years ago. Just google Reese McGuire parking lot.

Here is a fun tidbit from the game. NSFW https://streamable.com/askp7t

That's fewer than 30 right? And five is more than three.

Oh come on now, that wouldn't fit into the narrative of dumping every player they don't want on the team anymore.

Astros?

I think pretty much everyone here agrees with that. Hope it works.

You think?

So if the line suddenly changes drastically it's the owner placing a huge bet before Elias seals the deal!

I don't think anyone expects him to be age 30 Trumbo bad. I also don't think anyone expects him to hit 47 homeruns. As for what he's done? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I can't translate AAA stats into ML performance right now. He's probably an above average hitter and a below average fielder. How much of each is anyone's guess. I'm not expecting three to four win seasons on the regular.

Considering Sportsguys' track record that alone is reason enough.

I think other teams already know.

I was watching the Malarchuk game.

I'm good.

You and the Pirates evidently have that in common.

Kjerstad has a 163 OPS+. I'm talking more like Vlad JR having a 116 OPS+ in 2023 but still only being worth 2 rWAR.

Trying to point to Mayo's error total again? Mayo has 14 errors. Ten at third and four at first. I'm not big on the new math but I'm pretty confident that 14 is still more than 13.

I missed the game and have been avoiding the replay.

Also keep in mind If Mayo's glove is lacking he can be above average on offense and still not be very valuable.

Jesus Montero? He put up an 870 OPS in AAA while being 6.9 years younger. Can't miss guys miss in the majors. Not saying it is going to happen but "come on" don't act like it isn't a thing.

I've been saying his name way too much recently but the active example of worst case scenario is playing in Toledo right now. Someone like Termarr Johnson was billed as a can't miss bat and he's hitting 247 in the minors and is 20 in A+ ball.

Cool story bro.

That's 82% of slot for a Senior. They must think he's an actual prospect.

You don't stop at picking up 2024 Kimbrel if you are all in. The Burnes move was great but he traded surplus for an expiring contract. That's not an all in move. That's more of a call than an all in.
