Deferring payments has no actual impact on anything in terms of MLB salaries or player earnings. The teams still have to put the money in...
Realistically, top teams like the Dodgers can't get under the cap that quickly either without having to make poor decisions. So if they were to go...
I would be curious what % of $$ the players currently have been averaging out the last several years. That seems to me the key to all of this....
While these are great, just to give you a sense of what Judge has done... What Yordan has done the last 2 months is still slightly below the...
Did Cleveland make a promo highlight film of the minor league pitcher's strikeouts and an animated movie of a 1st round comp pick's potential...
Yes, because GMs react to one week sample sizes and promo film reels. They couldn't possibly have access to additional data that you or I have.
Doing something once doesn't make you good at it. Every player in MLB has shown the ability to lift a baseball and drive in a run with a sac fly....
You've spent the last 3-4 weeks saying the Astros absolutely need to be sellers and start a rebuild. Now they win 4 games and suddenly you want...

All of those things were true last year except he was 28 and hadn't failed in MLB and wasn't able to get a bigger deal. Having one of the...
Imai is not going to opt out of $40MM deal unless he has a better contract lined up, and that's unlikely if his role is as a middle reliever....
But you can't look at the walk rate in isolation. He also doesn't give up many hits - so if you're walking people but not giving up hits, maybe...
The Orioles and Tigers are examples of why spending several years losing isn't necessarily a great idea. You take away all the joy and interest...
No they can't. I mean, it's a nice theory, but no one has any idea if Hunter throwing 90 pitches instead of 100 would have changed anything. He...
Because GMs react to 1 month sample sizes and think 35 year olds suddenly become 1.000 OPS hitters out of nowhere?
FWIW, Crane is 72 year old billionaire with access to the best healthcare money can buy and with no known history of health issues. He probably...
