Named most overrated player in MLB in a poll of other players.

So naturally he will become a .850 OPS monster once he gets on whatever juice the Yankees give their players.  Not implying cheating but rather that weird bump so many players get from playing in pinstripes.

I think that is almost entirely due to this.

Wonder what three over hyped prospect are going back to Miami?

Agustin Ramirez is a solid get. I kind of had my eye on him as a potential guy if the Cubs moved Taillon to the Yankees. He's a power over hit catching prospect who should be solid behind the plate. Not a top 100 guy, but I bet he'd be in some people's top 150.

Crochet saying he would need a contract extension to pitch on October. I didn't realize guys could boycott the playoffs for contract purposes.

If he wants an extension I don’t see that as a problem, it just means he wants to stay in one place and is willing to stay with one team.  Not sure why that’s a l. Issue.

Have you ever caught a ball in your glove with a broken finger? 
 

im guessing not …. But I have it was only competitive softball and I was pitching. It was excruciating on anything hit solidly back at me. Thankfully it subsided in a week without playing. Mine was a fracture of the ring finger at the knuckle. The 5th meta carpal is the bone behind the pinky in your hand. So I’m imagining it might not be as band depending on the grade of the break. 

Should have had your team’s trainer numb your finger. That’s definitely what is going to happen at the ML level.

He has an injury history and 2 more years under contract while having throw by far the most innings he has ever thrown in a year. You're asking a team to make not only a huge prospect investment but a huge financial investment with a ton of uncertainty based on 3 months. If he tears it up next year too, then by all means ask for you mega contract.

No … not really. If you did the break would never heal. Everytime the ball came into the glove with any force it certainly aggravated the fracture and disrupted the healing process.

If he wants a deal that will guarantee him something that approximates what he'd earn in arbitration I'd seriously consider it.

I bet he wants something more substantial.

Nothing wrong with wanting an extension. Refusing to pitch in October without one is crazy.

The Baltimore Orioles are not done. They want to add a reliever, preferably left-handed, a right-handed hitting outfielder to replace Austin Hays and yes, maybe another starting pitcher, according to sources briefed on their plans.

After acquiring Zach Eflin, who is under contract for next season at $18 million, the Orioles are not opposed to acquiring a rental starter. Jack Flaherty, Yusei Kikuchi, Blake Snell and Frankie Montasall fall into that category. Teams view Snell as likely to opt out after this season, as long as he is healthy.

In the outfield, the Orioles added Cristian Pache in the Hays deal, along with reliever Seranthony Domínguez. Pache is a right-handed hitter, but his career batting average is .179. A role player such as Tommy Pham or Kevin Pillar would help provide greater balance. All of the Orioles’ other outfielders are left-handed except Anthony Santander, a switch-hitter.

Domínguez gives the Orioles another right-handed reliever who is tough on righties to go with Yennier Cano. The left side of the ‘pen, with Cionel Perez, Keegan Akin and recently demoted starter Cole Irvin, is not as strong.

After a busy Friday ahead of the trade deadline, the Baltimore Orioles are reportedly still working on making some moves before Tuesday.

Per The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal, the Orioles are looking to add a left-handed reliever, a right-handed hitting outfielder and a starting pitcher.

The report comes after Baltimore traded outfielder Austin Hayes to the Philadelphia Phillies for right-handed pitcher Seranthony Domínguez and outfielder Christian Pache. The Orioles also added a starting pitcher on Friday, landing Zach Eflin from the Tampa Bay Rays for three prospects.

Similar to above … let’s see what happens

Irvin is pretty much unpitchable even in a long man role right now. Would be ideal to add another starter and have Suarez take that spot. 

Basallo , Stowers, Povich and Irvin for Miller and Rooker

I'm not sure why Oakland would want Irvin back, but we'd still need to add more to get both of them. I'd like to do something bold like this though, along with another rental SP.

      Irvin claimed by Twins

      By Spy Fox · Posted

      That's too bad. I'm with you. I like Irvin and though he faded hard this year after a hot start, he's a good depth piece to have and capable of nice runs of success in a swingman role.

      I know most of you will act like this is nothing and maybe it will be but I would rather Cole be in the org than not.

      O's .300 hitters

      By Spy Fox · Posted

      On the "death of the .300 hitter" front: if the season ended today, 2024 would be the second straight year with only a single-digit number of qualified .300 hitters in MLB.  Before that, the last time there were less than ten .300 hitters was 1968.

      2024 Week 2: Ravens vs Raiders

      By Sports Guy · Posted

      Yea I’m beginning to be on this train. Last year, when the “experts” would break down the ravens, they showed a lot of route concepts and things previous teams weren’t doing. We saw some hiccups but things went pretty well last year overall…until the Chiefs game. This is the second year and this is when you are supposed to be more comfortable and while the offense hasn’t been bad the first 2 weeks, they are stagnating at the wrong time and are not using Henry enough. (Again why sign him if you aren’t going to use him?…just keep Zeitler) You had an entire offseason to figure things out and you have failed miserably doing it. I think they will turn things around eventually. I still feel they find a way into the playoffs but I definitely don’t feel as good about it as I did before.    We will see how complacent they are this week. There is zero excuse not to make changes on the line and with your scheme. The Cowboys have clear problems on defense. They have clear things that have been an issue for them this year and all of last year. They aren’t physical enough up the middle and they struggle vs a west coast offense. Let’s see if Monken adjusts to those things.

      Was the offense just in a run of bad luck on this road trip?

      By StottyByNature · Posted

      You generally can't intentionally bloop a ball.  The right approach is to consistently try to hit it hard where it is pitched.  The OP's data definitely lines up with what I thought for a few of those games.  We had a good luck season last year, things are evening out this year.
