3/2 Rangers vs Sox 2PM CT NBCSChicago

and it begins. -
Binelas is struggling. He's 2-26 (.077) and may actually look worse than his numbers. Time to make an adjustment, Alex. 6'6" lefty Joe Rock threw a no hitter and sat 91-94 with a decent slider at 82-85.

I don't agree with either decision but I can kinda see it with Kopech. It's long past time they start getting something out of him and they can keep a closer eye on him if he's with the big club. I still think he needs to log some innings in triple A to get at least some of whatever feel he had back but they're gonna throw him in the deep end and see what happens. Starting Crochet in the big league bullpen is a travesty. I guess this also means Lopez starts in triple A and is the first man up. Yikes

I don't like drafting catchers in the 1st round. It's such a demanding position the miss rate is just too high. I'd take a college catcher in the 3-7 range every year. The Arkansas catcher has a chance to be pretty good. The Tennessee guy too.

They've been making dump trucks full of money under the guise of being "smart" and "efficient." I'll give these ivy leaguers one thing; they can sell ice to an eskimo. -
I haven't heard anything but it sure is strange.

This is one hell of a sell job they're putting on for Burger and Sheets.

I hope not.

Andrew Vaughn Article - 3B/OF and Opening Day considerations
Harold's Leg Lift replied to South Side Hit Men's topic in Pale Hose Talk
They saw Kelenic (he played a game in the Cell) a ton just like they did every top player but they decided to play it safe. -
I doubt owners will ever give up a year. It's just too valuable to them. I saw one proposal that changed the way service time is calculated. Rather than going by days like it currently is service time would be calculated by quaters. That way owners won't have to keep a player down for X amount of days before they could call him up and not lose that precious extra year. Imagine that. A team could actually field it's best team on opening day rather than (wink wink) waiting until a player magically improves his defense or baserunning in X amount of days. What a novel concept.

Mariners president and CEO Kevin Mather's Zoom Call
Harold's Leg Lift replied to South Side Hit Men's topic in The Diamond Club
This started a shit storm and it's long past due. Everyone knew owners punished players for not signing team friendly extensions now the players have the proof they need thanks to this dumbass. Dipoto aplogized to the players then went on to say the team did nothing wrong. Then what are you apologizing for, Jerry?? “Strange,’’ Kelenic said. “It was literally like someone farted in church. That is the exact expression on everybody’s face.’’ https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/columnist/bob-nightengale/2021/02/24/jarred-kelenic-mariners-prospect-service-time-manipulation/4568463001/ -
That would get a giant meh from me. I'd be more concerned if they got another high upside bat like Brady House (who is freakin killin it) or Jordan Lawlar.

I'm literally going to watch this a million times.

He's so freakin good. He has advanced feel to pitch. He's so athletic and can repeat his delivery. His fastball is deceptive and it has tons of late life. Oh yeah and he can drop in a hammer curveball whenever he feels like it. The dude checks every box.
