Put Eaton, Madrigal, Anderson back to back, there could instances of it taking 25-30 pitches to get through them. They could go 0 for 3 and still do damage

Look at his ‘18 minors numbers compared to ‘19. Robert peak will be to ‘20 as ‘19 was to ‘18. In other words all the way to the top.

That’s a good bet on your end imo. 5 to 1 pay out on 50/50 shot if I were to estimate. You’ve got six chances to win. Yeah, no brainer. Hope you’re good friends though

Four #2 plus a future acquisition wouldn’t do the trick?

Yeah I’d rather have Mendick for his vastly superior defense. At least 50/50 he out hits him on top of that. Mendick has accumulated 60% of the WAR Marwin has since ‘19 in 20% the playing time

After three years we’ll only have Anderson, Eloy, Robert, Moncada, Vaughn, Madrigal, Cespedes, Cease, Kopech, Crochet, Kelly, Thompson, Vega, Bummer, Heuer and anybody like Giolito who may or may not be signed to an extension to build around. It’s almost like it ended before it even begun! Hopefully they all pan out because there is no way they will acquire another player over the next three years!

Strange the cap logo varied from the jersey logo that is the basis of the current logo.

You wanna wrassle me Memphis style??

How do you pronounce that? Nor-hey?

Jack ass also has a meaning. It’s a type of donkey.

According to fantrax, the d’backs want Corbin Martin in the rotation in order to build up arm strength, because he missed last year with TJS and only pitched fifty some innings the year prior to that. Found that interesting considering that is the direct opposite of philosophy around here vis a vis Kopech, Crochet and Rodon

I just use a usb to vga adapter

You gots to pick him just to say hello

Excessive confidence in what we believe we know...inability to acknowledge the extent of our ignorance...overconfidence by illusory certainty. gee that sounds familiar. What is that, your autobiography?

You think an .800 ops from Collins is ‘probable’?? Perhaps not out of the question but from what we’ve seen so far ‘unlikely’ seems more fitting

90 wins would be underachievement imo

I still think Micker has a good chance. He’s just been waylayed. Actually all those still have a chance albeit with other teams in a couple of those cases.

Yeah the actual fact is mlb players have to test negative in viral test to report, so we know he is COVID positive. Testing positive from antibodies wouldn’t prevent a player from reporting since you would test positive for antibodies after you were no longer positive for viral infection

From what I read, the antibody test was an additional test after the initial viral test came positive. The January date is Abreu s hypothesis. The actual known fact is he tested positive recently. Whether he is or was asymptomatic or not is irrelevant to the question of whether he has COVID.

I wonder how anyone goes bout hiring a translator for a foreign employee in the first place if it’s discriminatory and offensive to state an employee has trouble with a language. hey boss I found the perfect guy for the job but we’ll have to a hire an interpreter? why? He’s a great guy but his English isn’t tremendous. Youre fired. We have zero tolerance discrimination policy.

You haven’t proven anyone wrong though. Merely making a claim doesn’t make it so. For example your claim that no one in Japan would ever state that a foreigner lacked ability in the Japanese language. You just state it and in your mind you apparently think you made an actual point rather than a totally unsubstantiated claim. I could just as easily state in no other country in the world would it even occur to anyone to be outraged if a foreigner was described as having trouble speaking a language. Mine is probably closer to the truth

If the Sox are using Baseball America prospect rankings to evaluate their players value, they’ve got more problems than apparent. Actually, maybe that does explain it.

There’s a good chance of that happening though. Forecasting a top 5 hitter in baseball 3-5 years down the road isn’t a huge stretch for Vaughn imo

Perfect example of why most say to never pick from need. No way Madrigal was the BPA.

Every team plays that game. It’s operating by the agreed upon rules. Teams aren’t under any obligation to promote players or keep them on their roster
