caulfield12 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Proof positive someone is working in MLB industry today, haha. Was starting to think it was quiet in deference to Hendu, Bobby Dews and Strauss deaths all in one 24 hour period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilJester99 Posted December 28, 2015 Author Share Posted December 28, 2015 Jack Curry @JackCurryYES 2m2 minutes ago Hearing Yankees will give up 4 minor league players for Chapman.

LittleHurt05 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Risky move by the Yankees given the possible suspension upcoming. I bet that limited the quality of talent they had to give up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there are like 13 teams that could potentially make the playoffs. There are good teams but not really anyone that's a favorite. NL has 8 teams battling for 5 spots and 7 terrible teams.

In the NL, half the teams aren't even trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Sacamano Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 (edited) The NL has some really good teams and some really terrible teams. I'd say that the AL is more even and competitive amongst all the teams. The bad AL teams from last season (White Sox, Tigers, Red Sox) are even trying to make a run at the post-season next year.

If a deal were to happen, I wouldn't want DRob to be involved. A bullpen ending with Jones, Robertson, and Miller would be insanely fun to watch on a daily basis.

OmarComing25 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Dec 28, 2015 -> 03:33 PM) Is it though? I think there are like 13 teams that could potentially make the playoffs. There are good teams but not really anyone that's a favorite. NL has 8 teams battling for 5 spots and 7 terrible teams. I'd say all 15 AL teams could make the playoffs, even the A's had a positive run differential most of the season and they underperformed their Pythagorean record by 9 games. They always seem to contend when people don't expect them to as well. The top NL teams might be a bit better than the top AL teams, but I'd say every AL team is better than the Reds, Brewers, Marlins, Phillies, Braves, Rockies and Padres. That's half of the NL right there. There's no easy wins in the AL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
