  1. Well it's a $28 million contract over 6 years, so there is no downside risk. The contract will have zero impact on any decision making going forward if Keith is a total bust.
  2. Because Keiths development is important to the organization long term and Ibanez is not.
  3. It's obviously just death threats on social media.
  4. Fortunately for us we know that free agency is on the table, and our owner has proven he's willing to spend big enough to acquire quality players in FA. Now whether the players end up being quality signings will depend on Harris.
  5. I saw some photos showing that he has made some changes to his stance.
  6. And in 107 games last season Rogers hit 21 HRs with a 96 OPS+.
  7. Flaherty can get a QO, so worst case scenario is we get a comp pick for him.
  8. He says as Hinch starts him his first game against a RHP.
  9. He crushed fastballs last year with 17 HRs and a BA/SLG of .270/.497 and a wOBA of .368. And the statcast data suggests he was really unlucky with an xBA/xSLG of .296/.570 and an xwOBA of .406. He sucked against breaking and off speed pitches where he had an xwOBA of .278 and .280.
  10. I already went through this whole deal with him in April. Best to just ignore his nonsense takes.
  11. Mizes misses are just not even close.
  12. This is correct. Nothing Illitch has done to this point suggest he won't spend a reasonable amount. Will he go overboard and lose a bunch of money in a desparate attempt to win like his dad? Probably not, but the concern we won't pay out big contracts to sign players or retain our talent has no basis in reality.
  13. Is there a weather delay or they delaying the game for this dumb ceremony that is on my stream?
  14. We were always gonna have to acquire some foundation players from outside of the org, whether through trade or FA. Fortunately RHH are much more abundant.
  15. Add Carpenter in there and remove Tork.
  16. He's not the 7th or 8th best prospects in the system. Fangraphs has him 23rd. He's projected to a middle relief role long term.
  17. Funny when you saw him head down sprinting 15 feet from 3rd and Baez standing watching the ball just 10 feet up the line.
  18. Yup, just a dull and monotonous voice, and he drones on too long. Painful to listen to.
  19. I have to pirate every game and always end up with the home teams announcers. I much prefer road games. Both Gibson and Monroe are amongst the worst announcers.
  20. That's not really accurate, he's below MLB average in both GB% and PU%. He just hasn't been making solid contact and hitting the ball regardless of the hit profile.
  21. Definitely more than a little annoying that the consensus #1 picks in our drafts were Mize and Torkelson while the O's consensus #1 picks were Rutschman and Holliday.
  22. Walking off the mound on a pitch that isn't even borderline is quite the move.
  23. Bring on the robo umps.
  24. I subscribe to the best hitter second theory.
  25. Jobes start is once again the free milb.tv game of the day. Game starts in 20 minutes.
