    When a DH with a 97 OPS+ is your best hitter that says more about the team than the player.

    Why the Brewers? They have been in the playoffs four years in a row and will probably make it five this year. And they didn't have to go through a prolonged period of hopeless teams to get there.

    The only thing good about WalMart is low prices, so if they are unable to keep prices low, they could be in real trouble.

    I think that is the first time in four decades Jason Beck has ever speculated on anything.

    I saw an interesting suggestion today about eliminating the regular draft and instead making it a free for all with each team getting a budget based on their records last year. I believe that would be a way to give weaker teams a chance to get better while still rewarding organizations with good talent evaluation. I know this will never happen, but I think I like it.

    The Tigers need to find some players that can hit above C level: Cabrera, Candelaria, Castro, Castro, Clemens, Cameron

    This is how I feel. He is a weak GM compared to others, but he is not totally incompetent. If they have a chance to get something decent for their relievers then do it. Avila trading Skubal would be problematic. They can't go on like this forever though. It's time to move on to another GM.

    What are your plans for a sock puppet account? You going to troll Sportz?

    I think we can speculate about pretty much anything here without hurting anybody except for relatives of minor leaguers.

    I remember seeing Madison's stats in TSN and thinking he was going to be pretty good!

    Red Sox

    If he hits in AAA, I think he'll be back. He's not off to a great start.
  15. Tiger337
    I think Baddoo should have stayed in AAA longer and probably would have if it weren't for Meadows health problems.

    They won't get any more than a lottery pick for them, but if let's say Lange was packaged with Soto, they might get something decent.
  17. Tiger337
    Schoop has an option, but it doesn't seem likely that he would choose to leave after this season unless he finishes strong. I'd probably keep him another year for the reasons you say.
  18. Tiger337
    Which is why I'd try to trade them! Their relievers have been good this year, but I suspect them to regress next year. That's what relievers do. A team in the Tigers positon should market all relievers.
  19. Tiger337
    Vest, Lange and Jimenez are worth keeping, but they are also worth trading.

    Even Greene has not been such a positive lately. .233/.290/.384 in July.

    This is not worse than some of the stuff I see on marketwatch!

    They are paying people in California to "fight inflation" too. I am generally in favor of helping people when they need it, but giving money to help fight inflation will just make inflation worse.

    This old, but there is some interesting info on reaching base via error here: https://www.baseballprospectus.com/news/article/1167/aim-for-the-head-more-reaching-on-errors/ The leaders have a strong tendancy to be RHB presumably because they hit the ball to the left side more. Ground ball hitters also tend to reach base on error more often.
  24. Tiger337
    Should we pay attention to you? Like when you say you're not going to invest in something, we invest!
  25. Tiger337
    I just looked that up and it is more of a skill than I realized at lerast for the top guys. Is reaching on base via error also a skill? Studies have not been conclusive, but hitting a lot of gound balls and being fast most likely increases your probability.
