See the year after he left with Valentin and El Caballo lol. Hernia pretty sure it was...Germany or Switzerland.

No no. Mysteriously blocked from spotrac last year in China, but back working again. Always had to rely just on mlbtraderumors. Quick search at spotrac or google will spit out a list and organize it by salaries high to low.

MCCOVEY CHRONICLES SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS ANALYSIS The Giants’ top 10 trade chipsWebb Roupp Ray T.Mahle (Z.Littell equivalent) Winn/Miller (relievers) Complicated/expensive case for CF Jung Ho Lee On the other hand, here are the worst hitting outfields in MLB right now: 30. Brewers, 79 wRC+ 29. Phillies, 80 wRC+ 28. Rays, 80 wRC+ 27. White Sox, 82 wRC+ 26. Padres, 84 wRC+ 25. Marlins, 84 wRC+ 24. Astros, 87 wRC+ 23. Giants, 89 wRC+ 22. Reds, 91 wRC+ 21. Athletics, 92 wRC+ Milwaukee, Tampa Bay, and San Diego (disagree here) are almost certainly locks for the postseason, while the Phillies, White Sox, Astros, and Reds are extremely in the mix. With a looming lockout plus salary cap on the horizon, I’m not sure what the risk appetite will be, but if there’s a cap then there’s going to be a floor, and you could envision a scenario where the Rays, Reds, or Marlins add Lee just to help get them to a theoretical floor sooner… with the Giants kicking in some money to get back a decent prospect or two. https://www.mccoveychronicles.com/san-francisco-giants-analysis/107269/the-san-francisco-giants-top-10-trade-chips-2026-mlb-trade-deadline Congrats to KC/Cleveland for getting out of Bottom 10 outfields in mlb (DeLauter/A.Martinez).

The dreaded Pete Fairbanks again. Lots of veteran arms, including Dominguez/Newcomb. AZ might be in toughest position as an organization deciding what to do. Only two guys that are 29. Riley O'Brien the biggest prize right now.

https://twinsdaily.com/forums/topic/74294-should-twins-draft-vahn-lackey-examining-the-pros-and-cons-of-minnesotas-potential-pick-at-no-3/ Looks like Minnesota sees him more at 1B/3B as alternative position options...so a potential catcher and/or Murakami replacement, splitting time with Kyle Teel across 1B/DH as well. Why the Twins Might Ultimately Be Sold The strongest argument in favor of Lackey may be that his best baseball could still be ahead of him. Most top-three picks arrive with years of national attention and showcase experience. Lackey's path has been different. He entered college as an under-the-radar recruit and has improved dramatically every season since arriving at Georgia Tech. That developmental curve suggests there may still be additional upside. Organizations are constantly searching for players who have not yet reached their ceiling. Lackey's combination of athleticism, intelligence, work ethic, and year-over-year growth makes him one of the more compelling bets in the class. His profile also aligns with traits the Twins have traditionally valued. Minnesota has often targeted players with strong baseball instincts, defensive versatility, and a demonstrated ability to improve. Lackey checks all of those boxes. For the Twins, the decision may come down to a simple question: Do they believe Lackey's future is still ascending? If the answer is yes, Minnesota could be looking at a franchise cornerstone capable of impacting the game on both sides of the ball for years to come. If his development continues on its current trajectory, the Twins may not simply be drafting the best catcher in the class. They may be drafting one of the best players in baseball's next generation.

They would have e to move the Millenium Bean next to the stadium to have any impact...or open up an off shoot/pop-up exhibit of the Art Institute next to the stadium during the summer months.

Kay That's the only one that will eventually be perceived as a bargain or value deal if he continues to pitch like May. But that's still a long long way away at this point.

So why all the talk from the bottom 18 teams about not doing anything until they know exactly what the future financial conditions will look like? That's a lot of excuse making. Bit it's not like there are more than 8-10 players that everyone will be fighting for in FA. It's not even a sure thing anymore that Skubal will get $300+ million at this point.

Regardless, big market teams will be buying all the way up until the last day of November unless they really have legit reasons to believe there will be a hard cap...with significant enough penalties to deter them.

How many mutual options have been picked up by both parties when the player has a strong FA year though? 3-5%?

Bo Jackson before his hip injury...

Tell that to Benetti and Caleb Williams...joking. Well it certainly mattered to Konnor Griffin. He discouraged at least two teams from picking him, saying he would honor his college commitment in order to slide to Pitt at 9.

Carson Kerce GA Tech SS

Who is the one who keeps pushing Flora? Weren't two of Lackey's 3 hits massive bombs lol? A little like Romo. At any rate, Madrigal was from CA prep/OSU, Vaughn UC Berkeley and now UCLA by way of AZ with Cholowsky. Three PAC-10 (originally) guys. Third time's a charm?

Sure, but lots of overly positive SSS. Every starting pitcher has that massive advantage the very first time facing a team...

Schultz will be back by then?

And the Sandlin bandwagon didn't last all that long... Venable never should have let him go out there again. Or pulled after first batter.

Sandlin lost his velo this time. Way too late pulling him. GaTech coach taking over Sox here.

Ryan best record against rhbers not giving up a homer until Vargas struck

Larnach has really improved his sprint speed with a lot of training and conditioning in the off season...

And Franco "disappeared"...

Ofc it was ex Sox Tristan Gray WE's favorite player ST 2025 Sandlin not getting nearly enough horizontal movement on his cutter/sweeper/slider. Well, he was yet another former Ray. Except they couldn't figure out how to optimistic his skill set last year. They were considering Meidroth the starter at SS at that point. And they also had Sosa. But he hasn't done much since the first couple of weeks of the season.

And the second collapse is officially over. Tockey OU gw homer over batter's eye in CF. GaTech Friday starter never looked comfortable coming in as a reliever. Have to go back to post Garciaparrra/Teixeira/Varitek daysdays long years ago since Tech advanced to Super Regionals.
