The Mets kind of already have a 1B. Not to mention they would be excoriated in the NY press if they traded DeGrom to a division rival (unless they were getting Acuna and Albies in return).

Yes, you can only trade players on the 60 man roster this season, and anyone acquired has to be added to your 60 man roster. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2020/06/explaining-the-2020-mlb-roster-rules.html

Not too sure how quickly he’ll be back on the bench or at the Gwinnett camp to help the other pitchers. You’d have to think he’ll go home to Canada for a while for rehab after surgery (plus he’ll have to quarantine after being in a hospital). Then there’s the issues of international travel from...

Folty time?

Yeah, it’s just a question of if he was on the DL, or technically retired since he was completely out of baseball for so long. Not sure if he was still part of the Rockies organization during that time.

Yeah I saw that. That team is just a dumpster fire. I still can’t believe they have the ex agent of a bunch of their players (degrom, Thor, cespedes) as their GM, yet players still hate playing there. He got paid about $600k for the 9 games he played in this season so far. Pretty nice payday...

According to Spotrac we have 1 more year of arb eligibility with him, but not sure how true that is with his injury history and all.

Listening to Rollins calling the game on TBS. He joked that maybe the “donkey chain” around Acuna’s neck was providing some drag slowing him down on that catch.

Could probably be Rusin.

Martin’s so tall when the camera pans in for a closeup you can clearly see a substance on the inside bill of his cap. Shorter pitchers don’t have the same issues because the camera doesn’t look up at them.

They’ll be the first to experience the new 7 inning doubleheader games.

Could have also had Alonso in the 2nd round. Oh well, that’s how drafts work out. Plus, we could have only had Lewis instead of Anderson. It’s not like we drafted 3 players before Lewis was off the board. We picked 3rd and Lewis went 11th.

This is the downfall of MLB this season. Not picking a couple of hub cities around the country to have all the players stay at and play. Instead they’ve got entire teams and staff traveling (sometimes on domestic airlines) but regardless out of busy airports, staying in multiple hotels, eating...

Multiple players on Cardinals have tested positive. So they’ll most likely have a week off now. Which will also mean the Twins will need to be quarantined as well as they just played them. So it seems we’re going to have 4-6 teams off every week now.

That’s a good “slide” to break a leg.

In Dansby’s defense, I don’t think he was sure what the call was...did he swing, was it a foul ball, etc.

DUVALL!

7 inning doubleheader’s for 2020 is now official.

Unfortunately the umpire crews are staying in regions. So we’re most likely going to have this crew for all of our home games, as well as when [if] we play the Marlins.

The Athletic reported that players had until 8/1 to decide whether they were going to come back or not, no special exemption.
