    It amazes me that people still have any reaction to spring stats.

    It also amazes the guys who are trying to make the roster but have such shitty stats....they don't.
    And the guys who were starters ST stats relegate them to bench players based on they way they look.
    They must have it all for a reason, or else they could just do PT for 5 weeks.

    Oh yeah 750 OPS Kike. I like Kike but Tulo is a former MVP and it was a VERY team friendly contract.

    You talking to me? I'm kidding I get it. I just brought it up because I was surprised and on the cheap it would have been very low risk. Time will tell.

    ANY player has that risk but at what the Yankees are paying him right now and his pedigree it couldn't have hurt IMO.

    Degrom/Mets, 5yr/$137M extension, was set to be a FA after the 2020 season
    Another future rotation option for the Phils down

    Setting ourselves up nicely to sign Scott Kazmir on a one year prove it deal when he miraculously rediscovers his velocity at 43

    I read this as his velocity = 43.

    I like that you say "Another future rotation option for the Phils down" on all these posts. It's a reminder that these players aren't options for the Dodgers either way.

    Yup, the latter is a given at this point. If Thor keeps racking up injuries he'll make the short list of big name guys that can be Dodgers in a few years. We can look forward to that

    Now that the Phils are officially all in, I'm interested in how they build their rotation around Nola. Still have Stras and Madbum next offseason, Cole a level or two below those two. Paxton the year after, but the Yankees are probably going to take care of him. Phils have to do something

    The Dodgers are paying over $40 M in dead money this season, the most in the MLB. Biggest culprit, Homer Bailey.

    Hector Olivera and Yasiel Sierra aren’t that much better.

    Are we sure the FO is looking for bargains?

    Immediately posted that as soon as I read.it. Guess I should have not sipped over the posts following TB's.
    If two people post the same thing, is it still a double post? Or bi- postal ?

    They think that they have the pieces to win this year. Boy they better make some noise, or this is going to look really stupid long term by them. They are going to win a bit more than folks expected them to, but man their rotation is incredibly thin.

    I still can't believe we traded Puig and Wood and Farmar for nothing that could help us in 2019 then turned around and did nothing with the savings.
