Small sample but France had the second best UZR 150 of any 3B last season. Not saying this makes him great but hard to believe he could be second if he was bad. With a full season of Perry Hill's tutelage I think he will be at least average. https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=3b&stats=fld&l...

Yeah I know what the "logic" is and I disagree with the "logic". Unfortunately no one in the Mariner organization's logic is "What's the best way to win some damn ballgames" Instead we promote position players like White too soon and treat pitchers like their arm will fall off if they throw more th...

Looks like a blockbuster trade involving Russell may actually happen . Nothing new, but this breaks down the possible trade and we get Garapolo and Bosa. Yippee! Does this make us better? Probably not. https://www.si.com/nfl/jets/news/new-york-jets-acquire-seattle-seahawks-russell-wilson-four-team-...

I just read through that whole Twitter thread. I too fell like I'm getting punked. Imagine a fan of ANY other team reading that, just embarrassing. Those same people whi thought Gordon was a good player probably say things like "home base" and "points". You don't have to bring Dave Sims into this :D

Sounds like the players are against expanded playoffs because it will depress salaries (Why pay for stars if you can play scrubs and maybe still sneak into the post season?) Owners, on the other hand, want as many televised post-season games as possible. Not sure how to fix it (short of a salary flo...

Yes, it is Scott Rolen. His fans on Twitter can't figure out why he and his 70 WAR isn't in the HOF yet. I remind them that it is the Hall of FAME not the Hall of great stats. Does anyone consider Scott Rolen a famous baseball player? This guy with his 55 WAR likely gets in on the first ballot. You...

Ran across this story a while back, and it seems to fit the topic: https://www.hagerty.com/media/video/bla ... et-racing/

I was working and listening to the game on the radio. From what the announcers described, the Packers were inexplicably trying to stall out the end of the first half instead of trying to score, which obviously backfired. Is this accurate? Was it a case of "trying not to screw up" instead of "trying...

Once people stop criticizing the call on fourth down, maybe they will look at the throw Rodgers made on third down when he probably could have run it in, instead of forcing a fourth and long that was damn near intercepted. And yes, passing on Kelcee sucks, but he would have done nothing here becaus...

Not sure what to make of Taijuan Walker's mention of Portland in a tweet on Wednesday: https://twitter.com/tai_walker The Beavers have not been in Portland since the San Diego Padres moved the Triple A club following the 2010 season. Nick Madrigal, the super infield prospect with the White Sox, wor...
