Even the bat dog thinks the ump blew the call

Interesting the Rays & Blue Jays are selling and look like should occupy 4 & 5 in the division for a bit

Wander Franco sexual misconduct ruined himself and took a big chunk out of that franchise

Toronto farm is not deep/good and they gotta figure out Bichette & Vladimir Jr, both who seem are open to leaving asap

The Yankees are whores and will probably buy their way out of mediocrity

The Orioles are very good - they picked up Zach Eflin last night

The Red Sox are looking like they will be at worst a team that scores a lot of runs but needs a Tiant, Eck, Beckett, Lester type (staying away from Clemons & Pedro talk they are all timers)

No reason Sox aren’t 86-100+ win team going forward who run up ridiculous offensive numbers

They should be very interesting especially if Casas is a star - he will be entertaining as hell but bother the get off my lawn guys

I don’t know enough about the farm, aside from the top 5/6 guys that are often talked about here, but I have no problem using two of them to bring in quality guys with term to help this year and for the next few.

WC teams have done well in the playoffs recently. No reason it can’t happen again.

There are no world beaters in the AL, IMO.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

One of the prospects going to Florida is catcher Augustin Ramirez who is hitting .269 with 20 HR in AA and AAA this season.

Well I’ve had Garcia on my APBA team so I know him well - he’s an arm but he’s been pretty up and down

The caveat is I haven’t paid much attention to him this year so maybe he’s come up with another pitch or picked up mph - have to look at Fangraphs or some statistical metric

But I sure wouldn’t give up much based on a good 5 years of having him

Poor Reese McGuire

It’s not like he killed someone

 

[McGarnagle]

Poor Reese McGuire

It’s not like he killed someone

After he got ethered by the Rockies pitcher, it was all over in Boston

 

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

I just hope this isn’t the off season again of the Red Sox being in on everyone and not doing shit

 

[GatorMike]

 

[DKH]

Like this a lot

Felger & Bertrand won’t like but big upgrade over McGuire

He will add righty power - bet he slugs 500 here

Excellent team guy

I’m in on this

Craig you Dawg

 

[Mione134]

Upgrade over Sliky Reese.

Don't understand the *need* for it. But I'm not mad about it.

Go get a reliever, RH bat, and a starter and we good.

I'm gonna keep preaching the Flaherty to the Sox drum in hopes it happens.

Poor Reese McGuire

Great add if it's true, Jansen is a solid catcher, having a down year.
He has power / much better than McGuire.

 

[GatorMike]

He will add righty power - bet he slugs 500 here

The last two months, his OPS is less than .500.

 

[CDJ]

Started off really hot, got really cold

Probably better than McGuire regardless

 

[Donnie Shulzhoffer]

They need pitching and an out fielder.

A catcher?

 

[FrankerC]

A catcher at the deadline? So we can expect a police escort to the game?
