Adam Engel beating out Cordell and Leury to be the opening day starter in CF for two weeks next year. #getexcited

Castellanos came up as a 3B, I am pretty sure he would be a decent 1B.

Astros have been involved in some ridiculous games this year

Bummer is like a prime Zach Britton, trading him only makes sense if you get a Chapman like haul.

Hopefully Bummer is alright, but that is a ball he should have been able to field

That was probably the ugliest swing I have seen this year.

Still need a hit for Tim.

Yep, same with Castellanos. people saying he’s out our price range due to his play with the Cubs are just severely overestimating his market.

I don’t recall ever seeing this, in fact I can only remember one instance when a runner got hit by a batted ball and that was that game in Toronto three or four years ago.

But the batter gets a hit when the ball hits a runner in fair territory right?

I thought it was an automatic base hit, but apparently not.

They always had one of the best farm systems that produced great talents from Pedroia to Betts. Their farm right now is in shambles and their big money acquisitions don’t look so great. Pointing that out doesn’t take away from their success. 🤷‍♂️

I refuse to believe that Ryan McBroom is a real person.

The Red Sox would have been in payroll hell back then if the Dodgers didn‘t bail them out by taking Crawford, Beckett and A-Gon off their hands. I don‘t think front offices nowadays are stupid enough to bail them out again. They will have to rebuild after next year.

No what killed the Tigers was completely neglecting their farm system and handing out ludicrous contracts to Cabrera, Zimmermann and Upton. By the time Illitch died and Verlander was traded they were already terrible and were going to be terrible for a looooong time.
