Well on the plus side they didn't sign Javy Baez...lol. Savings.

Funny he wrote such a glowing story about Martin Cronin and Ramsey recently...guys who wouldn't even sniff the Top 30 in a good number of minor league systems. Struggling for "feel good" vibes.

Merkin was kidnapped by Jay Cuda?

Moncada is owed billions... untradeable. See Benintendi. Grandal... starting rotation... Graveman/Bummer...TA7 Robert Sheets Burger Jimenez Vaughn would draw interest.

No budget to spend on FA solutions.

Abreu would never have held onto MVP... over another 100 games.

This Midwest/Rust Belt trend goes quite directly back to 2007-09 in terms of crippling economic impacts... Other than A's/Miami/TB anomalies. Cubs Cards Brewers on the other side of the ledger with unusual fan bases... Brewers with built-in advantages provided by Selig family/commissioner's office.

Probably can't catch the three worst. Madrigal Vaughn draft territory but not Rodon at #3. Whatever they do, don't take Brecht from Iowa it will ruin his career being tainted by Hasn't poisonous touch...

Down now with Oakland KC Washington (-6) and the hapless Colorado Rockies who still manage to draw great crowds no matter what... see Bulls, Chicago.

I was kind of joking because he still has a very respectable ERA. But not sure his value will ever be higher... they won't extend him and he won't be around for the next rebuild either.

They were just amazing with both their pen and clutch hitting... late rallies at home and RISP. Naylor has been terrible and they're down two starters replaced by young rookies who are both struggling to find their footing in. the big leagues. McKenzie was great down the stretch last year.

White Sox Champagne of Baseball Franchises... https://www.espn.com/mlb/attendance Now have all five Central teams in the 20th through 30th attendance tier with CLE sinking by the moment...

Royals bailing him out. Chris Getz really made an. impact over there... too.

Arozarena is streaky but extremely dangerous too... presence in. that lineup. Former Cardinals farmhand. StL usually doesn't let studs get away, either. See Walker, Jordan this year. And Yandy Diaz playing out of his mind, too.

Minn 11-10, Cleveland 11-11... Guardians have lost 2022 mojo as Rays stole it away and bottled it.

Cease is not an ace if he only goes 4-6 ip each time and destroys the bullpen slowly over time.

3/37

Tomahawk Chop...

SF and Boston property

Isaac Tournament of Roses Paredes in

Santos for Closer. Francisco Liriano-esque slider there.

https://www.thebaseballcube.com/content/player/185256/#stats Guardians/Indians let go of both Diaz and Harold Ramirez... not to mention Francisco Mejia.
