"Booooooooo." -Ron, probably.

I can't decide if that would feel more comfortable or uncomfortable to pitch with. I guess you would feel less restricted the bigger it is.

I was just thinking this yesterday. Seems like most of his starts have been day games. Haven't been able to watch any yet.

Probably no rule against it honestly. The game was PPD at like 4 yesterday. Plenty of time to get someone here. Probably more for the games that start delayed for hours only to get PPD.

Confirmed for only one more season.

IF they are actually serious about not calling Collins up the rest of the year then sure, go ahead.

Yeah, but its almost seems hard to give him credit for the Sale deal. Who wouldn't be demanding Moncada and Kopech-like prospects for a player of that magnitude? Definitely give him kudos on the Eaton return and for being patient on waiting for the Q deal.

What do you want to have happen? Have teams in warm areas and teams with retractable roofs and domes host the first month of the season?

So if they did call him up that Monday, he would only be missing 9 games. And I would bet 2 of those games being played at a later date.

The first weekend home series usually draws pretty well since people want to get out of their houses and do something after sitting inside for about 4-5 months.

How many days does Robert (and I guess Madrigal) have to stay in the minors to get that extra year of control? It's 11 right? So his MLB debut could be at home against Seattle on April 6th?

Exactly what I was thinking.

Montas was not a part of the Shark deal FYI.

That's a signing bonus so yes, he would count. As it does college/high school draftees who sign a bomus. Hes still earning a league minimum salary.

Um, I think it would be pretty cool. It's fine to say that you don't care but I wouldn't speak for everyone as fact.

I went to the game 2 Sundays ago knowing they would probably lose 10-0 going in (Covey game). They lost 11-1 and I still had a fun time at the park.

Not even the best value on his own team. Moncada at league Minimum has a 2.9 WAR.

I was just confused as to why you thought he might be the most valuable player in baseball.

What?

Lol

Unless hes a great defender, probably not an MLB backup.

They really need Herrera to be good next year. Colome, Bummer, a good Herrera is at least a start. Add Betances and another arm in the offseason and then take the best 2-3 young arms out of spring training.

Leury? Colome? Also both arbitration eligible.

If they're competitive next year and Vaughn is tearing it up, I can see a late July/August callup. Depends on how the current 1B/DH situation is doing though.

Yeah with a little more notice, I would have scooped these up. But probably weren't available until yesterday so I understand.
