So do you want lefty bats or lefty power bats?

This would be so risky for both sides due to the possible backlash from Cubs fans over Baez success with the Sox and the prospect cost it would take to acquire him because the Sox would pay a premium due to his stardom + crosstown upcharge. In a vacuum I love this because it's a "let's fucking do this" type trade, but at the same time, I fear seeing someone like Crochet having a long, long career on the North Side.

The Sox. Selling a hurt Moncada that is still putting up elite defensive and OBP with prospects is bad. I know Jack is worried about power, but that's it. The other is older and signed through 2023. One dude is younger and signed through 2025. Plus prospects. For a difference in .3 fWAR (I know that's not the end-all be-all, but it's the easiest way to quantify it).

Sorry, it's a layup.

It says that you're the inaugural founder of the Jose Abreu fan club.

You have one of my favorites:

200% inspired Eloy. League = Not ready.

Why won't James Shields let us live in peace???

Caulfield, what the absolute fuck are you rambling on about right now?

He has risen

This post from the Twins' reddit board has become a meme on the overall baseball reddit and it feels like it needs to come here in lieu of looking at that stat. This was posted on April 5. Lmao.

Man, his face said it all watching that hit not get caught.

Yeah, but at the same time, moving Yoan is wild.

Burger was taking them reps at 2B for a reason my dude.

Thought he was getting his first homer there. Also, man, Jason and Steve are going to be insufferable with the Burger puns.

He had to welcome Grandal to heaven, then he'll be ready to go.

Or a trade for an infielder.

Hahn ain't fucking around.

I might be alone in this, but I've liked the past two years with targeting fast-rising college players followed by high ceiling prep player. Would have been nice if that was the 2018 strategy with Joe Gray or Alek Thomas instead of Steele Walker, but that's firmly in the past and has been litigated 1000 times.

Billy Hamilton is a goddamn treasure.

2 thoughts: 1) Look at Yogurt go. 2) Does every minor league team have a beach blanket? I know Charlotte has one.
