    Casas has a left rib fracture. He will be out "a while." (4/23 update)

    I know Kavadas is not on the 40-man but he seems to be the perfect replacement. He’s a lefty with power who’s been playing first base. He’s been decent so far in AAA and has had enough reps. In 60 games in AAA he has an OPS of .882.

    4/17 vs Guardians

    I know the season’s over but Houck is a really good pitcher when he’s on like this. Let’s see third time through the order now.

    Bieber getting TJ. What an epidemic.

    Yoshida, O’Neill and Casas are up. We will score more runs.

    It’s unsustainable. It just sucks. At least he got paid.

    Eury Pérez

    Does he get service time? Man, if he doesn't that would hurt.

    2024 Rotation and Bullpen

    I was bullish on Houck and Whitlock. Glad that they've started the season very well, it reflects the work Bailey's done.

    2023-2024 General NBA Season Thread

    The last 15 games has been crazy. He flipped a switch. He's better in every facet: driving, dishing, finishing, shooting. It's one of the most ridiculous things I've seen.

    The Frailty of the Modern Pitcher

    A crazy idea would be to penalise teams if their pitchers get TJ. If the PA is concerned about this trend then negotiate a bonus for players who get TJ, maybe accelerate service time as well. If you get TJ you’re only under control for 5 years. It might incentivise teams to push back against...

    2024 Rotation and Bullpen

    Murphy getting his elbow checked out. That doesn’t sound good.

    The Frailty of the Modern Pitcher

    This is obviously bad for baseball and it needs to be fixed soon. I don’t see any trials being done in the minors.

    The Frailty of the Modern Pitcher

    The ball would have to be deadened to prevent Judge from hitting 70HRs. But yeah, I think that’s the next logical reform to get pitchers to stop throwing at max effort.

    The Frailty of the Modern Pitcher

    The launch angle revolution was in response to the 2012-2015 years where base hits and doubles didn't produce enough runs as pitchers continued to increase their fastball velocity. The source of the problem is the ever increasing fastball velocities, I know Theo said they might move the mound...
