  1. Eh. B-ish? Liked most of the returns actually. Kinda bummed Cease didn't get moved, but no idea what the offers looked like obviously. Can still move him in the off-season I suppose.
  2. Here is your BA scouting report. #2 in the Marlins system. 2. Jake Eder LHP Ht: 6'4" | Wt: 215 | B-T: L-L Age: 25 BA Grade/Risk: 55/Extreme July Update: After having Tommy John surgery in 2021, Eder has completed his rehab and is back at Double-A Pensacola. Track Record: In 2020, Eder was ready to make his move from the bullpen to the rotation at Vanderbilt. The pandemic prevented that move, but the Marlins were convinced enough to draft him with the fourth of their five picks of the shortened draft that year. The next spring, the Marlins pushed Eder and his fellow draftee Max Meyer to Double-A Pensacola to officially begin their professional careers. Eder rewarded their faith by being one of the biggest breakout stories in the minor leagues before having Tommy John surgery in August of 2021. Scouting Report: Before the surgery, Eder showed a dynamic two-pitch mix fronted by a one-two punch of a low-to-mid-90s fastball and slider which each project as plus. His fastball had the type of riding life at the top of the strike zone that is coveted today. Eder also showed a strong feel to lengthen and shorten the break on his slider, with the former version looking like a harder curveball. Eder’s third pitch, a low-80s changeup, had a ceiling as an average offering with further refinement. A small tweak in the way Eder removed the ball from his glove at the beginning of his delivery helped improve his command and control, which projected as plus before the operation. He is a dedicated student of the game who keeps a journal of what worked and didn’t work during each of his starts. The Future: Eder missed the entire 2022 season but should be ready in time for spring training in 2023. If his stuff comes back intact, he has the ceiling of a midrotation starter. If he shows the same form, he’ll add an element of clarity to the Marlins’ long-term rotation picture, which is currently clouded by injuries to Eder, Meyer and righthander Sixto Sanchez, who hasn’t pitched since making his MLB debut in 2020. Scouting Grades: Fastball: 60. Slider: 60. Changeup: 50. Control: 60
  3. Man. Drop Cease for an Orioles haul with some proximity to the majors and you can squint and maybe see a not horrible future? Who am I kidding though, player development is still terrible in this org.
  4. Kinda bummed? Easy guy to root for.
  5. Watch out AL Central. About to go on a heater!
  6. Looks like Sean Burke was moved to the 60 day IL yesterday.
  7. Was wondering the same thing yesterday. He was put on the 7 day IL way back on June 22nd according to the transactions page.
  8. The last sentence. Is he referencing job titles/roles within the Org? Or am I just reading into this what I want to read?
  9. Anyone else notice Rick's comment along the lines of "we can talk about roles and titles in the near future"? Am I reading too much into this? Or is this confirmation of what @Harold's Leg Liftalluded to?
