I really want to be TeamPeterson, but the off the court stuff at Kansas definitely scares me.

Yeah, each of those guys had some pretty major flaws, and then their own dev problems, whether it was being rushed to the majors or whatever.

We will probably find out when he is back in 2028.

This poor man is suffering from one of the worst cases of Southsider Derangement Syndrome I have ever seen.

Dis you? https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7278971/2026/05/14/white-sox-fan-fall-hospital-royals/?source=athletic_pulsenewsletter&campaign=18030787&userId=6062851

I AM THE BIGGEST FAN I AM THE HAPPIEST ALL OF THE HAPPY TIME!

Otherwise known as the Grady Sizemore incident.

Yeah, crazy that people listen to what a GM states about his players rehab assignment.

Really, that goes league wide. There will be teams that figure it out.

Oof, I am no expert, that is probably not good.

Just because Vargas looks like he figured it out, doesn't mean anyone else will or won't. If their only similarity is that they struggled in their initial debuts, then buckle up because most guys who do that, end up out of baseball more often than the do as a good hitter.

When, not if, he goes on to the IL, it won't matter.

The Orioles absolutely blew it in their window.

Wait, what? The Dodgers do WHATEVER it takes to win. Trade deadline, offseason, international, etc.

Insanity. The dude is a walking time bomb owed over double what the biggest contract Jerry has ever issued is. Unless Anaheim is taking on about 90% of that contract, I am not interested.

Still don't care.

Yeah, his explosion was just gone.

Honestly, I don't respect you enough to care about it.

The market rate for back up catchers who don't play great defense is dfa.

He's closer to DFA than a draft pick trade.

Leaving your fragility aside, the post isn't that complex. Getz is getting all of the credit, none of the blame, and that will continue to be spun once the team falls out of contention, even though he'd rather be wrong and it not happen.

Who is giving up a pick for Quero? My guess is that it ends up being one of the relievers.

How?

The Rays are in first place, Cards are 2.5 out of first place with a nice record, and Pirates have surprised the plus side. As of now, no one else is close enough to consider trading a pick for something. The Cardinals might be the best chance there, as they do get active at the deadline. I would be pretty surprised if Pitt and AZ are around the race in two months.

Poor luck isn't the right term. I would call them "non-existent". Supposedly that is changing, but we will see.
