Daniel Hudson still going strong for Dodgers...where have you gone Edwin Jackson?

Brent Honeywell resuscitating his career with the Rodgers now too

I always thought the move to make for the Sox was to go out and get Daniel Hudson instead of helping the Cubbies shed Kimbrel's salary that fateful season.

Yankees: LHP Tim Hill
Released in June by a White Sox team that was on its way to setting a Major League record for losses in a single season, Hill has emerged as a terrific find. A 34-year-old sidearmer who generates plenty of ground balls, Hill shrugged off his 5.87 ERA with Chicago and pitched to a 2.05 ERA in 35 appearances for the Yanks. He was especially tough on lefties, holding them to a .187 batting average (14-for-75) after being crushed to a .413 clip (19-for-46) with the White Sox. -- Bryan Hoch mlb.com

Luckily not considering Dylan's post-season disappointments...nor Skubal's, although that was such as anomaly.

Still think Sale needs another 2-3 solid seasons to guarantee his place in Cooperstown.

So you're telling me Drew Thorpe was good enough to be 4th in the NL Cy Young voting???

His career WaR right now is in the mid 50s, which is pretty low for a HoF starter. I wouldn’t call this open and shut if his career ended now.

The guys in this range are wild, lots of guys who got into the Hall pretty easily, then like, Javy Vazquez.

Billy Pierce and Mark Buehrle are #79 and #80 all time. Sale is #73.

Now the marlins too, I think we have to consider him a master escape artist given the facts

“It's exciting,” Sheets said. “That was obviously the goal I had when I got here, and to get notified by the front office and everything, it feels good. It's the hard work that was put in. Just excited about the opportunity to be here, to have the contract selected.”

Sheets is coming off a rough two-year stretch with the Chicago White Sox, in which he struck out 172 times and recorded batting averages of .203 and .230 in 2023 and '24, respectively.

He has tweaked his mechanics a bit since arriving at Padres camp, and it seems like it’s been working, as his six home runs this spring entered Thursday tied for the Cactus League lead. His 1.123 OPS is also fifth-best in the Majors.

Brutal.  Bad enough we had to watch them on the Sox last year, but Oldy Moldy is now another year older?  38 now?  Wow, poor Padres fans…

The crazy thing is that there's no way the Padres would trade Campusano for Korey Lee straight up.

But they must not be happy enough with his game management skills as a catcher.

Soroka starting for the Nationals.

Sheets is hitting rockets all over the field
