Oh and then "hoping" Santander is going to somehow be that contract year bull .
>>153169752>>153169803I have been saying this.
>>153169813Don't worry. You have the highest ranked prospect pool in all of MLB. I am sure that will mean contention for years to come. What could go wrong?

Source: The Giants have agreed to a two-year deal with Harrison Bader, accomplishing a major offseason goal of improving their center-field defense.First: @Ken_Rosenthal>t. Peff retweet
>>153170311I don't disagree, but his 50/50 home run baseball sold for over a million. The guy who sold it was sued by the kid he overpowered to get the ball. I think the kid lost the suit, I would like to find out.
>>153170198Also repeating isn't historic. Joe Mauer did it
A little birdie told me the Cubs and gallen are close to a deal
>>153170391lawsuit is still ongoing from what I am seeing online. "Kid" is 18. Max Matus. Florida courts if you are interested. Lawyers are probably making sure they get their fair share lol.
>>153170334Yeah even if he's a postseason choker he's so consistently durable in the regular season you can pencil him in top 2~3 in a rotation for years and get fair value on that contract barring an early decline
>>153169803>they are going to be less Bo's insane double machine batclement hit 39 doubles last year
>>153170753correction, he hit 35 doubles. still, the point is that he's a solid hitter.

What’s it like being an Angels fan and seeing other big market teams make huge signings and trades and meanwhile you get minor league signings of Nick Sandlin and Trey Mancini? Doc you recognize your team isn’t even trying or do you cope and try to rationalize Mancini and Manoah and Moncada and Grissom all bouncing back and being a competitive team?

>>153175363Yeah definitely the vibes at spring training are great I recommend it to every baseball fan. I wish I could go this year but I’m doing something else
>>153175344I'd unretire Billy Martin's because we're almost out of single digit numbers and while I don't doubt his contributions to the Yankees, Steinbrenner retired #1 as an apology for the drama back then. That's admittedly kino in its own way thoughever. I think they'll retire it soon enough, but I'd replace Martin's with CC's number. Brett's a distant second.
>>153175344They haven't retired many so I guess Edgar gets the short end of the stick and 11 can come back.

Any more big trades coming before pitchers and catchers?
now that 8th graders are throwing 90, and 100 is commonplace in the majors, will we start to see 107, 108, 109, and even 110 in the next few years?it really seems like its only a matter of time. i think we will eventually see MLB either lower the mound or increase barrel size soon to combat this
>>153181384its obvious this is where we are headed. heres a simple prediction2030: 108 mph highs, .220 league avg. 2035: 110 mph highs, .189 league avg. 2040: 114 mph highs, .155 league avg. >baseball lowers the mound finally as ratings dip below 1 million for the world series, where all games are 1-0 in extras2045: 95 mph highs, .270 league avg.
>>153181384No, knowing an eighth grader is throwing 90 without any idea of his frame/levers is meaningless info. Players go through puberty/growth spurts at different times. Remember TINTAAPP: some or all these guys will encounter arm trouble (possibly their second TJ given the proliferation of year-round, single-sport travel teams). You have to be a unicorn between frame/mechanics/health to max out mid-100s (Ryan, Chapman), much less live there
>>153181384my buddy was throwing 88 back in freshman year of high school. he then catastrophically blew his arm out to where he had to legit switch throwing arms…was fucking sad to watch.these kids chasing velo won’t go anywhere. body is not meant to throw that often, for that many years, at that intensity
>>153181384I had the strongest arm in my little league and threw 74 in 8th grade lol. This is ridiculous
>>153181397idk man seems like there’s a limit to human physiology around 106 mph considering no one has ever thrown beyond that in literally millions of MLB pitches
I feel like a 6’8 pitcher with monkey arms and freaky ligaments should be able to hit 110 at least once in the lab
>>153181384
>>153178850Nothing Ever Happens
>>153176246Marlins legend
Braves don't have a farm. They just barely make this list.
>>153181384MLB will run into trouble when cyborgs are pitching 120+ miles per hour in a few decades.

>>153181874no...NO!!!
>>153181384i think this is likely, but we'll also probably see much shorter careers and in general starters eventually become relegated to 3-4 innings instead of 6-7 like we are in this era

I recommend one of these pregame shirts that you see the players and coaches wear. I own two for (my team), one in team color and one in black and they're unironically my favorite shirts, and they're on sale right now.
>>153184090but i'm not a player or a coach...
>>153184088yes
>>153184111checkedI can confirm that you need not be either to buy and wear one, but the sizes available do max out at 4xl, anon.

Lance said they’re gonna get rid of the lower levels of the minor leagues, cut the draft to 10 rounds and redirect all those would be lower level minor league players to college ball
>>153184871and the impetus for all of this is to axe tje lower level minor leagues so ownies can save money
>>153184871and what are the international signers supposed to do
>>153184924Didn’t say. I would think some of them would go to the complex league and some of them would go to college
>pitchers and catchers report for spring training in 3 weeksIt felt like yesterday that the Dodgers won the World Series.
>>153184871Feel good comedy of a 30 year old chud journeyman pitcher going back to college with a bunch of zany libs so he can get one last shot at the big leagues; starring Chris Pratt and featuring Liv Tyler as the women’s studies professor / love interest. Who says no?
>>153185036Like Van Wilder Old School and Bull Durham all in one. I say no for Liv Tyler she’s quite a bit older now.
>>153185058Older is better in this case but she’s gotta walk the line between shrewd feminist but mature and sexy. Who’d you have in mind?
>>153185090Elle Fanning. Also she’s gonna be on the softball team and I’ll be casting myself as the coach/her boyfriend and there will be sex scenes and they will be real
>>153185117That’s fine I already fucked her tho
>>153185185you've never had sex
>>153185203Well that’s not true either
>>153185216when was the last time?
>>153185185Oh I should be clear, I’ve already fucked her before. Well before you did, like six times I did
>>153185245Friday night >>153185259You should know that I fucked her before that though also and I just forgot to tell you. Only needed four times to put her right to sleep too.
>>153185281>Friday night how long did it take the guy to cum?
HEY, DID YA HEAR ME? I SAID HOW LONG DID IT TAKE THE GUY TO CUM!!!!
>>153185310hehehe you guys see that? I said when was the last time you had sex, he said friday night, I said how long did it take for the guy to cum hehehehe
>you evah think that babip was nevah gonna happen fah you?>yeah. and it nevah did. so what?
>>153185310>>153185325The guy is me in this scenario btw and it took a respectable 10-15 minutes AND also there was a woman (female) involved who very well may have cum too. There’s just simply no way of knowing.

>>153186046Dear Mr. Arraez:I have been told that you will celebrate your birthday on February twenty-fourth, and I hope you will accept my warm congratulations. Realization that you now count your years at the four score mark reminds me, with something of a shock, that it is fifty years ago that I used to follow your batting average with the keenest of interest. I venture to say that your name and the records you established are as well known to the boys of today as they were to me, and that, I think, must prove that you are truly one of baseball’s immortal heroes.I hope you have a fine birthday celebration, and that you will enjoy to the fullest many more years of happiness and health.
Es accels have made a comeback. Might have to cop in a final vain attempt at recapturing the fleeting memories of my youth as the world turns to shit around me.
someone should strike out jizzolm and do this celebration. I really want to know how he'd react
