Blackout Friday

Interesting the game power is higher than the raw power. Don’t see that very often.

That’s by far the best he’s looked, not just in terms of results, but also his stuff. His fastball was harder than I’d seen before and like you said had a ton of movement. It looked like he was cutting, running, and sinking with ease. Very encouraging. Good for him.

It’s among the dumbest things I’ve read here.

Future HOFer to future DFAer in about one month.

Oh, I could sense the sarcasm. Was just kind of continuing your thought. I Should have made that more clear.

His opt-out date is June 1st

Law gets bad info because people in the industry generally don’t like him. Was told this by a Blue Jays crosschecker. I take him with a grain of salt.

Yeah, great for his development to not play.

Yeah, he’s doing well so far.

Thanks for checking on this. Elmore was replaced late in a 1-0 game, so could have been a defensive replacement move. I don’t think Elmore plays much LF.

Are you for real? He should be in the minors unless he’s immediately an ace. Think before you type

Yeah, maybe I’m not giving players enough credit. A lot of the time though they just give perameters and the agent finds the team. But I know players too. That was my job. They’re often stupid competitive. They want to be the most, be the best, or make the most. It drives them. Free agency is already a fragile system for a team like ours. Not much room for error. I just hope they get it right.

The primary downside to being so awful thus far, in my opinion, is who the hell would sign here?

Rondon fighting off that 0-2 fastball and then keeping his hands back to pull that double was impressive.

Jimenez might be the same, unfortunately.
