You say that like its a bad thing. This franchise has been turning in some of the worst minor league seasons in baseball, and low and behold, now that is happening at the major league level. Better Birmingham = Better Chicago.

The Mets could shove their way into a discussion for sure

Cards system looks awful.

I wonder if they already missed their window. They might actually be in full collapse.

I am grateful for all of the freetime the 2024 team has given me back by watching them so much less than normal

The pronouncement of his death were premature.

Look at the CFs around MLB this year.

No matter what, you will remember today.

Nah, just untalented geeks.

Everyone else sucks. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

You cannot.

It's almost like a team of David Ecksteins doesn’t work in 2024

He almost threw that one away

Because that is what we do.

Hopefully at least outdo the Grossman return, but then again that was with months more control.

Just think, we didn't play Colas all year so we could build his trade value

Cashing paychecks

Haaaaaaaave you met greg?

Smiths slot is $7.7 million. If we went over it is on the next 2 guys and not him.

If we ran the Crochet experiment with 100 pitchers who had the same injury history/innings base, how many make it to the break with 100 innings and healthy 1? 5? I am taking my winnings and going home.

From the wires

Your turn Baltimore

Yeah, I don't think people realize how common these types of tax breaks and funding pools are for luring businesses to communities. For all of the noise you hear about companies coming and going to places, it is always about money. Whether it is tax breaks, labor pools, incentives, TIF etc, no one leaves because of politics or whatever, they leave for profit. Don't believe me, spend a year watching your teams redevelopment group and get back to me.

A guy like Cease or Quintana? Sure bet on their health. Crochet? Not me.
