Re: A look at the off season additions so far

If Jrod was to come around an outfield of Raley, Calzone and him might not be so bad. Season really does hinge on Jrod being his old self

Re: A look at the off season additions so far

I'm guessing Garver got old. Polanco too in a way, health issues? It's true that since 2021, Polanco ranks fifth among 39 qualified second basemen in wRC+ (121), homers (63), and fourth in RBI (202). It's equally true that, after leading the Twins by a mile with 1,574 plate appearances from 2019 to ...

Re: Hawks' Schedule

The defense doesn't seem to be a concern. But the offense, you have a rookie HC who's background is defense and a rookie OC that's never worked above the college level. I don't see it as being about PC. It's just that it could be a learning curve getting the offense going. I brought it up before, hi...

Re: Kelenic trade

Interesting, Whites contract contact covers more than 2024. So it's costing them $14.5 mil against the cap in 2024.

The amount of salary they took on was $29 mil. I accounted for the mariners and pirates kicking in probably $9 mil

Re: Kelenic trade

They are paying kelenic $750,000. The $20 mil isn't part of their payroll. It's not affecting the salary cap

Re: Game 1 Mariners in the Bronx

Totally unenjoyable game for 8 innings but we're supposed to be all giddy now. Fuck that. They needed an error and a lucky blooper to puull out the "miracle" finish. It happens to every team several times each year and doesn't mean shit. FTT It means they didn't quit and got the win which is kinda ...
