    You really want to try to explain what its like to be an agent to me? Youre wrong. Source: my life.

    Don't offer to work for free and then get mad when you find out a co-worker got paid because they asked to be paid. -------------------------- I mean this isnt gonna be a great take..... Thats dumb. Women and men arent treated the same in business which is trash. If M williams and marky mark operated on the same level id agree. They dont. Hence the reckoning going on now thats long long over due. You think michelle is dumb I see very clearly she was taken advantage of. Her agents screwed her and helped their male client. Obviously a trash way to treat a person. Just because we strive for equality it doesnt mean everyone shares in said equality. I assure you as a quazi minority my life isnt the same as the majority. The differences have been exposed in the last year and they are glaring.

    Do you think players would get rid of the arbitration system to move to NFL type contracts? I don't see the players union ever moving to non-guaranteed contracts. It would probably take the owners guaranteeing a certain total compensation (much more than todays level), getting rid of the luxury tax, and putting a pretty high floor on a teams total compensation, so teams have to spend $75M even if they have a young team (or $150M over two years or something like that). The Suppans, Garzas of the world, would just make sure to have a very high signing and roster bonuses as part of the contract in the first place. No shot that ever happens for everyone. I think i explained myself more than i should have on why I had to entertain it myself. Not ideal.

    Thanks much for doing this. Good listen, really cool to have an actual MLB agent that interacts with us like this. My question would be, why do arbitration panels continue to be so antiquated in their evaluation of a player (preferring old school stats like HR, RBI, etc, when in any other way, statistical analysis and evaluation has come so much further than that? In some cases, it can cause a projected arbitration figure that well exceeds open market value, (like we saw with Chris Carter last year), which may result in a player being non-tendered that the team actually prefers to keep. No idea. Thats a good ? For the other side.

    Would reducing the number of options go far enough to accomplish that? Doubtful No clue how to long term fix permanently. Something seems off.
  8. agent39
    Yes
  9. agent39

    I remember getting into a debate with IIRC TheCrew07 when they drafted him; I thought he had upside, TheCrew07 thought he was too small, and initially I was right but lately he was. Diaz struggled pretty badly last year, and this year he was caught behind Ray, Clark, Stokes, and Harrison, but more importantly was hurt most of the year. Diaz signed w angels 6 hrs after release.

    His average fastball was 95.1 last year and has been 94.7 and 94.8 in June and July. That's lower but certainly not notably lower. I think you have to account for the change in recording velocity this year. So it is more like 1.4 MPH change. The other thing about this year that would be a slight red flag is the fact the Rangers do not use Jeffress often. He rarely has ever pitched consecutive days this year and many times gets 3 days rest in between. He might just be throwing harder than in April because they don't use him often. Just a possibility there. Other thing with his velocity is Fangraphs has him at a perceived velocity of 90.7 MPH. Not sure what he is for his career, but that seems oddly low for him. Go look at his useage through may. He led the majors on appearances and when tex realized what they were doing they did a 180 amd barely threw hom and when they did it was square peg round hole as a long guy

    phillips won't be eligible for recall yet, but keon broxton will. i'm predicting dfa-ing nieuwenhuis and carlos torres, and recalling broxton and activating jeffress. if jeffress isn't able to report to milwaukee by tuesday night, the brewers can hold off on activating him. thus, there would be an opening on the 25-man roster that could allow the brewers to recall keon broxton, and then make a roster move after tuesday's game to activate jeffress. Hell be in uniform tomorrow

    Theres a reason he keeps heading home.

    Seems like every year.

    having been outrighted to the minor leagues before, jeffress would have the right to refuse the minor league assignment. Right - but considering his stats, what other team would take him? That might be a risk the team is willing to take, banking on the fact that Jeffress knows his best route back to MLB success is with the Brewers, even if that means toiling in milb until he regains form. Several he hasn't even thrown a pitch yet for Milwaukee. please save your negativity for a week from now Actually we don't know yet f he's going to be in Milwaukee or AAA. He reports tomorrow. He has no options.
