Kind of what I'm thinking... I'm taking this with a grain of salt, and I'm keeping an eye on more credible / mainstream rankings sources to validate anything that Bleacher Report comes out with.

I feel like this is a signing that should have happened 12 months ago, from a clubhouse standpoint.

Is there such a thing as a pre-emptive spoiler? Like, we're building up false confidence for teams like KC, only to set them up for heartbreak later when they have to face actual MLB teams. I feel like that's a form of revenge.

After seeing reports of him progressing faster / estimated to return earlier than expected, this checks out.

Yes… but if ever in Detroit, go to Buddy’s.

Wasn’t there good salary relief from Bummer?

If he shows he can close the 10 or so games he gets asked to close, and if he is ANYWHERE near as dominant as he was against Cleveland, he would command a decent return. he’s got elite “stuff.” Being a closer lets you live more off of that pure stuff than a starter.

Have fun! Nothing beats father-son (or any other parent-child) fun at the ballpark

I think they can make it. Guys like Fedde (if he performs) will be gone. Ditto for Kopech and Wilson. Good players that you keep on rebuilding teams are young and under team control. The only player who could fit that description is Crochet, and he’ll be shut down. This team is going to be right up there with the 1962 Mets and the 2003 Tigers.

I imagine with Moncada and Robert in the lineup it’s considerably better… but still.

They’re not mediocre. They’re absolutely horrendous.

I mean, maybe Maldonado is really good at handling pitchers…? Meh - either way, Lee DHing is a complete fucking head-scratcher.

I wonder what is the most number of NRI’s to start in a single regular season game….

Shaw will be back.

So when's the next Colas Call-up going to be? My guess is before 5/15.

I dunno. Sometimes you just gotta believe.

If he’s going to succeed, it’s not at this organization.

With this headline, my first thought was, "yes, Pedro. That is how batting lineups work."

I mean, when's he arb eligible, again? Could be an extra year of league minimum, at least. Jerry would appreciate that, so that makes it more likely.

Gotta try to salvage this season somehow.

I am 100% convinced it's personal in some way, shape, or form.

I mean, they're unlikely to get to 150 games COMBINED!

Tommy Pham.

Is this where we start to throw random corner infielder / DH names at the 2B position for some reason?
