Well Crapola. Now I guess it's too late to trade Kelenic for a bag of beans..........

Wonder if there is ANYBODY here who will delight in this news?
We could trade him for a used beat up garbage can from the Astros
Does that garbage can come with instructions?
Lol

I can see a great SNL skit coming

So ironic that will all the technology now in baseball they went with a communication device that could double as Oscar the Grouch's place of residence.

that probably saved them having to forfeit a couple more draft picks

Pete Rose says the Astros really cheated

. Rose told NJ.com, “I bet on my own team to win. That’s what I did in a nutshell. I was wrong, but I didn’t taint the game. I didn’t try to steal any games. I never voted against my team. I bet on my team every night because that’s the confidence that I had in my players. And I was wrong,” Rose said.

Then again, maybe he bet ON HIS TEAM to not cover the spread... hmmm...

I’m warming up to the idea of locking him up long term. The ability for speed at a position like first base is unusual and could really make for some exciting baseball coming in our future, We have had far too many slow slugs at first.....Its unmarinerlike

No spreads in baseball betting, only money lines.

60 grade for a 1B is unheard of. Good stuff. btw are you up for a trip to Fenway to see the M's the first week of July. Looking like I will be living there.
Fastest Runner: White (60)
White is unusually athletic for a first baseman and possesses plus speed. He runs well enough that some clubs who scouted him in college toyed with the idea of trying him in center field.
