GreenSox Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 Oakland a bit premature in calling up Wendelken (to say the least). Josh Phegley was Oakland's best pitcher today. Even got a K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently during the middle of a start! SP free agent class after this year was already really thin, now it's really horrible. The best SP available will be... Volquez? Cashner? Iwakuma? Hill? Yuck.

knightni Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Silly Question. Regarding a walk-off HR... If the run doesn't count until the batter touches all of the bases - including home plate - how can teammates leave the dugout and celebrate without being considered to be in the field of play? Guys are all over the base line, etc. The game isn't officially over, correct? Would Harper have been considered to be returning to the field illegally after being tossed? If the other players can be out there too, then he's not technically on the actual field if he's outside of the baseline? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2Jimmy0 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 I think 7 years and $175 is a great deal for the Nationals. Strasburg is very good and that's what those guys cost. He could have gotten more on the open market. Should have a front 3 of Scherzer, Strasburg, and Giolito for years to come. I'd love to pry Tanner Roark away from them.
