Alright boys. Three outs to go, and you can kiss the off-season goodbye!

So, you don’t think Baldwin is impressive?

You’re just a hater.

Sixth time you are claimed off waivers in an off-season, you get a commemorative totebag with Rob Manfred’s face on it.

Despite all evidence to the contrary the homer in me is still hopelessly optimistic about the season. I think we just need to survive the first half until hopefully the reinforcements arrive. If we are within 5 games of the divsion at the all star break I think we are in a good position assuming half the current non injured players arent injured by that point...... Anyways heres my bold predictions for the season.



1. Dubon has such a good year that it makes it impossible for us to re-sign him.

2. Bryce Elder finally earns some respeckt around here,

3. MH3 has a monster first half...... then reverts to Melvin form in the second half. So basically his normal season just reversed.

4. Iglesias shits the bed again as closer and gets replaced by Suarez.

5. David McCabe is our come out of nowhere prospect this year filling in at DH for us.

6. Feuntes is dominate out of the pen but stuggles as a starter. Too valuable to the team in the pen to send down. Spends most of the season as a dominate setup guy to Suarez.

Unless McCabe can actually start showing some serious in-game power at AAA this year, he isn't sniffing the majors. A 26 year old who can only play 3B or 1b (not well) and has a career minor league SLG of .404, is not MLB material.

My hot take is that Albies has a big bounce back season, stays healthy, and posts an OPS north of .750.

Does a team get anything for winning the Grapefruit League? A trophy? Just curious.

If the NBA can give out banners for their in season tournament then why not.

I think we should get a comp pick in the draft. Make it mean something

That sounds an awful lot like what people were saying prior to last season.
