    I heard an interview with Jeff Passan and he was kind of going through the timeline of when a deal would need to be made in order for a normal baseball calendar season. His line of thinking was a deal by the beginning of February allows for enough time to have a free agent blitz followed by a reasonably normal spring training leading into Opening Day.

    Moon boots, ugh. I can hear the footsteps now.

    I read this with the sound of "the day the music died" in my mind's eye. Bye, bye, Ms American pie.

    Hayes fell hard on that hand. He stayed in after that, but I mean, come on, why play him with one bad paw when Corey Joseph is there? Seriously though, they may need to bite the bullet and sit Hayes in order to heal the hand.

    February 30, 2011. Look it up.

    Oh, you're right, that's what's happening. It just seems odd to me that MLB would have its offseason calendar set up that way. But its MLB, so I guess it shouldn't be odd to me.

    I was listening to MLB radio on Sirius and they were talking about Dombrowski rebuilding the Phillies’ bullpen for next season. Good times, eh?

    I think I won a poster of the day award at MTS once. Alas, that site is gone and so is my banner.

    Maybe it’s just me, I don’t know. But it seems odd to me that free agents are signing with different teams and QOs are still out there. Awards aren’t completed for this past season and guys signing with different teams. How fun would the Robbie Ray Cy Young press conference be a day after he signed with the Tigers?

    Smooth Johnny Kane.

    Personally, I’m still waiting for either.

    Fair enough. Change it to bad approach or bad eye.

    I think if you look at the year-by-year SO%s, you'll find Story & Baez headed in different directions. Both are above league average, but Story has certainly improved since his rookie season.

    I find Baez' persona better than Correa. Baez at least addressed and apologized for his thumbs down deal in New York. Correa took the heel route with the response to the trash cans. I was kind of against Story from the beginning, but I've come around and think that he might actually be the best option when everything (performance, durability, potential price tag) gets considered.

    That's kind of the only scenario that I would see it (or maybe "hope" is the better phrase) happening. I just don't like his skill set in comparison to the other SS options. I think once his power goes, his bat is awful, and his value then relies solely on his defense. His defense is very good, but for how long?

    Just wait for the plague of locusts.

    It depends upon the contract and what other moves the Tigers make.

    In spite of those two weeks, he had a .993 OPS for the month (4 weeks and a couple of days). In spite of his slow start in AAA, he had a .881 OPS against competition that was around 5 years older than him. And that was his first official season of pro ball.

    Winner. I wonder if the revenues lost from broadcasting on the streaming deals that they didn't renew might be missed,

    Time for Caesar TV.

    September begs to differ.

    Sounds like a bad spring break.

    But Rodriguez also has the opt out. Would players be willing to sign now if they have (1) shorter deals or (2) opt outs? In either event, they could capitalize on a new CBA if it suits them to do so. However, there is risk that they don't perform for whatever reason.

    Still had issues earlier on another PC. Cleared the history and cache back a week. Looks like I could access MTF on my phone under the same network connection, so I don't know. We'll see what happens tomorrow.
