Last week without any baseball
I dont get the babip argument against Moncada, I watched about 80% of his atbats and he murdered the ball. How many bloops and sqiubblers? I dont remember seeing many honestly.

MLB cheating scandal
MLB better hope their numbres dont drastically change, its just going to add to the feeling that they swept the buzzers under the rug.

Yoan Moncada switches agents
Agreed, I am guessing its a two way street but I doubt Boras' office wouldn't want a player with Moncada's abilities. He seems to get players the most money so why not?

Mlb might be changing playoff format
Thats a good example, what would be your solution to a team like the Brewers then?

Mlb might be changing playoff format
I am fine with 12, I don't think it would diminish the importance of the regular season. Home field advantage is still important and worth playing for. Thinking owners will just settle for the middle is better than what we have now where owners settle for the bottom.

Mlb might be changing playoff format
I was very opposed to this at the start but the more I thought about it the more I started to come around on it. Teams will feel more pressure to go for it rather than tank year in and year out (detroit, pitt). Its better for the fans for those middling teams.

Joc Pederson thoughts
I would be pissed if i were pederson, what a stressful time it must be for him.

Jeter is going to be a HOF shortstop for the Red Sox, the baseball gods will make it so.

So excited for the new season
46 days is way too far out. I live a couple of hours away from KC and am planning on going to 7-9 games to watch the Sox play. Last year I went to 0 games. Thats how excited I am! If anyone is going to those let me know

MLB didnt do enough. Manfred has completely failed the fans.

Betts to Dodgers
Its going to be strange business if this falls through but if it means the Twins have to give up more, or another top prospect then im all for it

PECOTA 2020
is WARP just WAR? I believe Moncada beats those numbers if he continues to have the exit velo he has. That .267 average is way too low with that in mind, especially when his slugging is .481. Will be interesting to see how his season plays out.

Betts to Dodgers
Barring a miracle WS by our Sox I am cheering for the Dodgers to win it all. That org needs to be rewarded for how good its being run.

Betts to Dodgers
Graterol could have pitched 150 innings at a 4.00 era for the twins this year alone. This trade is so strange for them
-
Betts to Dodgers
Its obvious that the Dodgers werent going to trade Joc if they couldnt get Betts. Lets not pretend that it would have been a good idea to wait until the Dodgers made a move before looking for RF help. Come on now.
-
Betts to Dodgers
Wow i think the Twinks botched this one. Thats quite a bit for a pitcher who cant throw more than 150 innings at a 4.00 ERA clip.

Opening Day 26 Man Roster Discussion
When he squares up on the ball he kills it. Hopefully Menechino can work with him on elevating the ball more.

Offseason 2019-2020 MLB Catch All Thread
I have a friend who used to play for the White Sox in the early 2010s, he said everybody hated AJ. He also added "I hate that mother fucker". Not saying he was a cancer, but AJ wasn't the best teammate.

USA Today projections
I dont think the Tigers win over 50 games this year
