Re: Nice knowing you Otto, Hello again Elly

My theory is that Julio just isn't happy here. I don't know why that would be the case exactly, but there are a number of reasons that players tend to not like it in Seattle compared to other cities. There could be some clubhouse dynamics at play. I've wondered for a while if he and Cal are friendl...

Re: Nice knowing you Otto, Hello again Elly

So doesn't anyone have any theories how a guy goes from good defensively to bad defensively going from his age 24 to age 25 season??? We all know hitting is VERY volatile and there are even a lot of examples where goes hit will in odd years and are terrible in even years and vice versa but how does...

Re: 2027 roster

Love it. But if I'm the Reds and unlikely to be able to extend Kirby, I'm holding out for Sloan or looking to bring in a 3rd team. If I'm the Mariners, I'm still doing it with Sloan, Celesten, Farmelo, and Bautista. Offense is at a premium cost right now.

Re: Official MLB Trade Deadline Thread (Rumors and Ideas Welcome)

https://twitter.com/JeffPassan/status/2081216002952454222 Seems like a MASSIVE overpay by Boston. 24 year old starting pitcher with a 3.44 ERA and 5 years of control for a former burnt top prospect with similar control... Mead was a consensus top 30 prospect a few years back but floundered around.....

Re: The trade off of perceived effort vs production.

For the life of me I cannot understand why fans are still upset over Arozarena apparently dogging on a fly ball to left field. He (aside from Canzone) is the only player on this roster that does not have his head fully shoved up his ass with a bat in his hands. To Randy's credit, he's transformed h...

Re: IMO may be controversial

It doesn't matter how well the team is constructed if Dan doesn't use players to their strength. Maybe this is old-school thinking, but when your prototypical 4 hole hitter is batting 2nd and your team leader in OBP and SB is hitting 5th for much of the year, you're not going to manufacture many run...

Re: I fear Julio is forever ruined...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_e--9LTrTAE&t=175s It makes me sad that the Mariners took what was a guy who could have hit .300/.400/.500 by leaning on his ability to hit for contact and plus speed and turned him into a pull happy clown that can't cover the outer half. Peep the video above... the ...

Re: OT Kids

I have two kids, both in their 20's. While raising them, I thought it was 2 to many. But now that we are mostly piers, they're great. But I still say that the best part of kids is practicing to make them. 8-) Yep. Wouldn't trade all the early mornings for football and baseball, all the miles travel...
