Re: The Official MLB Offseason Thread

Acuna OK. Lucas Giolito not — torn UCL. You mean the Red Sox might be EVEN WORSE than expected??? You just hate to see it :) Nick Pivetta is a Cy Young contender (#1 K%, #2 WHIP, #2 SIERA in last four months of the season) and Bryan Bello is about to break out. if Rodon doesn't bounce back, the Yan...

Re: Farm drafts

You should probably lighten up your definition of useful a bit. I'd say Betances, Hosmer, Pollock, Park, Kikuchi, and Piscotty were useful. But who the hell is Henry Lalane, why did you take an heir to a fitness empire? Probably the best pick in the whole draft. Can't believe I missed him. He looks...

Re: Top 3

I love this thread, Brian!

Henry Davis - Is the former 1.01 pick going to explode onto the scene?

Royce Lewis - Was the short sample a fluke or is he a real superstar?

Edward Cabrera - Will he finally improve his control and become an ace?

Re: Freedom and Undertakers Swap Prospects

Los Altos confirm. I think Bobby and I are Zavala's biggest fans! I think he is going to be very good, but I can't pass up the chance Phillips figures things out. Got a message from Zavala's Dad yesterday after an article I wrote! He said Sammy has put on 20 pounds of muscle and worked at the lab t...

Re: Official Auction Commentary Thread

We had a 12.0 bid on Yandy Diaz

If we were going to get him for 10.5 or less, we would have loved Garver at 5 so we waited to see how it played out

Very very tricky to navigate that

Re: Official Auction Commentary Thread

This feels like everyone saying Brady was going to fall off.

I'll believe it when I see it but I'm definitely never betting against Brady or Trout. Ever.

Re: Official 2024 Farm Draft Commentary Thread

Yes, Jeff, #2 was Emiliano Teodo for me. Didn't even tell my Dad about him because if he's a starter, dude is too much of a project and probably a waste of a pick. If he's in the bullpen, he probably clogs up a farm spot for two years which seems like too much for a reliever. But he's my type of guy...

Re: Hope I don’t regret this

This is a really good even trade.

Wild to see Corbin Carroll moved but Greg certainly paid the cost!

Agree; Rojas and Soto were awesome values at this stage of the draft!
