Just talked to my guy via text and here is what he had to say. Take it for what its worth.

He is hearing that there is an offer on the table from the M's that includes Adam Jones and Clement. Says he thinks Bedard will be dealt. Just a matter of time and the right deal.

Roberts will be dealt as well. No timetable, but says he would be suprised if he is here on OD.

Also feels Roberts got the shaft in Mitchell report and that Hendry could careless if he is in Report. Still thinks Pie could be involved in deal. Gallagher definately in deal.

Thanks as always. I like the M's as trade partners and would like to see it happen.

Thanks for the news Peace. Very interesting regarding the M's. The key is really who the 3rd guy would be. With the Reds, if the 1st two are Votto and Bailey, the 3rd guy matters less. But with the M's, the 3rd guy is almost as important as the first 2. I like Morrow. I love Balentien. I really like Triunfel. If we get Clement, I hope we're planning on swinging him around for a middle infielder.

Good news. Thanks, as always, Peace.

Is Morrow included in the deal. IMO, he is really a key part coming back. I really like the kid.

Thanks, Peace! I heard about the M's too, but it seems AM isn't happy just yet with the offer. The good thing is they think the offer will get better. I am still hearing alot about Roberts and the Cubs but I'm not sure Pie is included. I know Gallagher is in the offer and we want Pie but to my kmnowledge they haven't included him yet. Are you hearing anything about talks with Millar to the Rangers? Nothing serious yet but ongoing conversations.

Belkast, what players are you hearing that we'd get back for Millar? I don't expect much, but is anything noteable?

Nothing on Millar. Just info on Bedard and Roberts. What could we expect back fro Millar anyhow?

      Gunnar/ Adley . Would Gunnar have been a good choice at 1-1?

      By webbrick2010 · Posted

      There probably was no "right" choice and absolutely no "absolutely right choice" I was on record wanting to choose Abrahms and my logic was simple, a 1:1 is a chance to pick a HOF type talent A college catcher was a safe pick and Adley is having a nice career but he is clearly not a MVP/HOF type player.

      Agreed, Akin is pitching too well to be optioned until there’s no other choices. Tate should certainly be optioned before him. The only reason I could see Akin needing to be optioned is if BOTH Means and Irvin end up in the pen (with Bradish, Kremer and Suárez starting). That’s possibly the best 5 SP right now if they believe Suárez > Means/Irvin. In which case you really can’t have 5 lefty RP and only one RHP to go with Kimbrel and Cano. Otherwise, they should carry 4 lefty RP (with one of Means/Irvin as the long man) before optioning Akin.

      The answer to the question is obviously no. Now if the question was would Gunnar have been worthy #1 pick the answer seems obvious that he would have been.    But taking him where he went allowed the Orioles to maximize their draft which is what every team hopes to do.    You can argue whether Adley was the right pick but if Gunnar went first there is no way the two picks work as well for Baltimore.

      Time Gunnar's triple

      By 24fps · Posted

      1080i video is redrawn a half frame (field) at 60 times per second.  Progressive footage like 1080p is 30 whole frames per second but often converted to interlaced format for transmission. If you are doing this on an ongoing basis, here's a suggestion: download the free version of one of the numerous non-linear editors out there like Avid or DaVinci Resolve and throw the clip on a timeline for your measurement.  Manually clicking through hundreds of frames seems like it would be needlessly cumbersome not to mention slow.

      This. I don’t get the Akin going down talk (even though it seems more based off his option remaining than performance). Right now Akin is arguably our 4th most trusted reliever (can argue with Webb) based off his usage and his peripherals are clearly in the top 4 with Cano, Kimbrel, and Coulombe. He might not be a setup guy but he’s a solid piece to have in the middle innings.   Akin’s K-BB% is nearly double that of Baumann’s in both of their careers as relievers. He K’s more, walks less, and gets more chases and whiffs.   Keeping Baumann over Akin even for a week isn’t a move that winning teams make. Not to trash him, but Baumann is just not good, so who cares if he gets claimed? He’s not trusted at this point late in close games unless the bullpen is overused, so if you lose him and need a replacement later in the year you have Heasley, Charles, and Tate (if he gets optioned). Then you also have Wells who should be a bullpen guy when he comes back. Having the flexibility is good but keeping one of your worst relievers just because he doesn’t have an option doesn’t seem like a good way to solve a log jam.

      Witt had hit tool questions on draft day, and Abrams was much less of a sure thing than Adley. Based on information known at the time, we absolutely made the right choice with Adley.
