Maybe. But Harris did have some success with it the last 2 years.

They mentioned on the air the other night that Hyers was talking to him about it. He explained to Harris he was loading his hands from that position and it forced him to start his swing earlier. He said if he was gonna be loading his hands like that, he might as well go back to his old stance so...

Maybe. But at least Kinley has the excuse of playing in Coors. Pierce turned out pretty good after leaving there.

Bummer can be replaced by basically any FA reliever for cheaper.

Savant page is pretty intriguing:

He said it's someone who didn't come up with the Braves but had a couple of good seasons with them. I am looking at mid 90s Brave rosters.

My final guesses are Dwight Smith, Deion Sanders, and Michael Tucker.

For real though, I don't get this move. Unless he pitches his ass off the last 2 months, we won't be picking up the option. I get targeting relievers like Pierce Johnson, who you think you can fix. But Pierce Johnson was pre-arb.

I knew we'd be buyers!

I am gonna guess Brian Jordan was the high drafted guy and had a couple good seasons here. BTW, I spent way too long looking up mid 90's rosters trying to identify who this is.

Dude's a beast. Reportedly he fell in the draft because of attitude issues at Tennessee. He wasn't much a team player his senior year. He reportedly missed some workouts and team meeting. He also reportedly flaked on some of his NIL obligations (though that seems a common theme across the NCAA)...

Woohoo! JK rides again! Can't wait for that .612 AAA OPS to ball out in the majors.

The rest of his repertoire is very mediocre though. The 4 seamer has plus velocity, but mediocre movement. However it could play up well if he could actually locate it. But he can't. The Slider and Curve are below average, though the curve seems to have improved. He's still a future reliever...

That was his average last night. He was at 708 average spin rate his previous start on 7/18. And as far as I can tell, he's been in that range all season on his splitter.

You said "Somehow teams don’t make money yet owners keep the teams for funsies." Quite clearly they own sports franchises for more reasons than the few million they might make in a given year. So yes, they are often owned "for funsies." Plenty of franchises have posted losses over the years...

Yeah a bit of a mind slip this morning on the country, before I have had my coffee. But the point remains. And I am talking about the "putting his body on the line" bit. How anyone can say he isn't putting his body on the line is absurd.

His ability to stay healthy is irrelevant. He isn't out here dogging it and playing like it's just another job (like Anthony Rendon). Dude is out there busting it every game for this team. He would literally play on 1 leg if he could. Acuna is one of the few guys that you can tell by the way he...

A 3 team trade would work in the scenario and we get more prospects.

Profar would look really good for them in LF.
