and who might that be? wanting things and coming up with a realistic plan that is likely to occur are two different things. why spend people when you can just spend money?

so where are you going to get the team power from? just crap it out of thin air for $4m AAV?

Personally, I think the $$$ is better spent on Cespedes, Prado and Castro than the other players (which those 3 probably cost similarly in AAV to say Desmond, Ramos and a different 3b candidate) Cespedes gives us star power and that will draw fans, Prado was a prior fan fave and Castro...

black people in the USA are the most racist ,scapegoating people on the planet. they kill each other in droves, but blame whitey. If you question them, you are branded a terrible racist and the SJW left comes and tries to ruin your life. They refuse to integrate into society, preferring their...

oh ffs people, I AM TRYING TO BE OPTIMISTIC HERE!!!

Hoow do you pronounce Povse? Is it like "LOAVES?" or "Lo-veesee? or what?

Yeah, Chapman's slider was always filthy, his issue was control. His first full season he posted a 7.38 BB/9 , but once he got it down in the 4's, he was lights out.

Pirates called up Josh Bell, a guy I think compares with Braxton Davidson a good bit. Bell also took awhile to tap into his power potential, but when he did! powwwww!

we might have several, it's hard to tell until they reach the upper levels and/or MLB. Lot of guys that looked like superstars became nothing, and vice versa. Just gotta wait and see.

Yeah, but the Cubs are very good at getting on base. Both teams share the same SLG, and the Cubs only have 9 more homers than the Indians. The Tribe are slightly better on the basepaths but the Cubs are way ahead on defense. Both teams are very evenly matched on pitching. I tend to think...

That's the thing right? There are other teams with better top prospects than us, but not many, if any, with the depth we have. So, how you rank our farm depends on your personal criteria. If you prefer upside, Dodgers and Red Sox look better, if you prefer depth, we are easily the #1...

someone needs to teach him the splitter, it's a lot easier to control than the slider and with his velocity, he'd be unhittable with a 92 mph splitter that falls off the table.

that .300+ ISO though...... that's elite power.

not so sure about Gallo, true he K's a lot, but he also walks a lot, he might turn out to be Adam Dunn with better defense, and that's pretty damn serviceable.

this says blood clots, but it mentions TOS as a possiblity. I know Josh Outman had surgery for it. http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/braves-mike-foltynewicz-has-successful-surgery-season-likely-over/

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thoracic_outlet_syndrome I have no idea. I thought Folty had a blood clot.

feel bad for the guy.... @AnthonyDiComo Matt Harvey has been diagnosed with "symptoms consistent with thoracic outlet syndrome" and is considering season-ending surgery. #Mets

it's a bad year for depth and pitching but there are some good bats to be had. Cespedes,Desmond, Trumbo, Ramos, Castro,Weiters, Prado, Tucker, Reddick....etc It's not like there's Colby Rasmus and a pack mule

I think that it would put us close to 80+ wins and that's contention for the wc late in the year. If you think the team has to jump from 60 wins to 90 for it to be successful then I think you have unrealistic expectations. We add some offense, we hope our arms develop and that Swanson and...
