    It is usually cooler than Phoenix.

    Expansion is all hanging on the stadium situations in Oakland and Tampa Bay. Oakland looks like they are staying so that leaves Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay probably leaves for Nashville or Charlotte. That leaves Montreal as an expansion team and Las Vegas. Don’t count out Jacksonville as a spot for the Rays to move to also.

    Another loss for the Red Sox today. If they don’t win their next series against Cleveland it is over for them. There are just far to many teams they will have to overcome. I think the Red Sox will be in sell mode by the time they are playing the Brewers next week.

    They don't really need another bat but a dependable CF is something they Yankees do need. After King went down with his injury the #1 option is getting a few more relief pitchers.

    The Red Sox have fallen so far behind now that they could be sellers. They are currently sitting 3 games back from the final wild card spot and they are playing like garbage. They are currently 5-13 in the month of July and haven't won a series against an AL East team. The Red Sox have 0 games against teams below .500 until the deadline. They have 2 more against Toronto 4 against Cleveland and then 3 against Milwaukee to finish July. The Red Sox could be out of the wild card running before the deadline and if they are I wouldn't be surprised if they sell. With Bogaerts opting out after this season and with Martinez and others becoming free agents I could see the Red Sox selling off some of its pieces probably just Martinez and Eovaldi and maybe Bogaerts if they are blown away by an offer. The Red Sox basically have everyone that is useful on the IL right now. Some may come back in August but by then it would be far too late to make a run.

    The ever popular Whit Merrifield could also be a target though I don't think he has played much CF lately either. Merrifield had a horrible start to the year but since June he has been normal Merrifield.

    We as American's have been lucky enough to enjoy the freedom of movement. I don't want to see that go anywhere anytime soon. It is just not economical for what you are saying for the majority of the people. Even with the higher gas prices now it is far more economical to keep an ICE car over getting an EV. EV's need to extend their range by another 150-200 miles before they become economically viable for everyone. Right now EV's are just niche vehicles. If I got a EV vehicle I would have to recharge almost every night as it would be about half the range of the EV just for me to go back and forth to work one day.

    According to Bob Nightengale here are the teams in on Soto so far: I am sticking with the Yankees they have the prospects to get it done. The only thing that could hold it up is if the Nationals insist on including Patrick Corbin in a deal. I think the Yankees would want the Nationals to take Hicks and Gallo back if they are bringing on Corbin. I think the Dodgers wouldn't really care and would take on Corbin if it meant getting Soto and the same with the Giants and Mets. I am not sure the Padres or Cardinals would be willing to take on Corbin maybe the Cardinals as they need pitching though Corbin wouldn't be much of an upgrade over what they have now.

    If you are talking about Hader's value during the offseason I agree the BTV site is a really good reference. But if you are talking about trading Hader during the deadline then I think you have to multiply that by at least 1.5 times his current value. Teams tend to overpay by a lot for relievers during the deadline. So if you use the 1.5 times his value that would be around 23. So you are still talking about the same type of prospects. I think Hader's value is closer to 40 during the deadline and somewhere around 15-20 during the offseason. During the deadline you could get two premium prospects while during the offseason I think you can only get one.

    Brewers can also do a draft and follow on HS players after the 10th round. The player has to goto a JUCO and then would be given the option to sign with the team that drafted them previously or to reenter into the draft.
  11. nate82
    I think Volpe/Peraza, Dominguez and a couple of lower level players is probably close to what it would take. That would be the equivalent of Chourio, Wiemer plus the lower level prospects.

    And there is no scouting reports normally on those past 200+ normally. When it goes up to 500 it is just a list and usually just a list of who scouts visited and that is about it.
  13. nate82
    It is not impossible as the experts can only cover so many. There are only so many hours in a day and it would be impossible to cover everyone. Even after the top 100 players that the experts look at the scouting reports get very vague and only cover a few things. There are going to be players that are going to get missed where a teams scout happens to visit an area where someone they were looking at is playing another team and they see another player that they were not looking at. Teams are going to have more resources to throw at finding players than the draft experts will ever have.

    Bradley Loftin would be a tough sign but he could be a top of the rotation type of a pitcher.
  15. nate82
    Well I got 1 Brewers draft pick right.
  16. nate82
    Someone who is a high average low strikeout player is nothing? I guess you are only happy when you are miserable.
  17. nate82
    A lot of the people complaining about a weak hitting shortstop with no power are also the ones complaining about the Brewers being an all or nothing type of an offense. It is comical really.

    He is coming off of TJ surgery but yeah this is a head scratcher here.
  19. nate82
    Didn't expect Rocker to get picked this early wow!

    The Yankees are probably the favorites for Soto. They have the prospects to get it done and with Judge probably leaving for the Mets or Red Sox it would make sense for the Yankees to trade for Soto. Probably makes more sense to do this in the off season. Beyond the Yankees I am not sure there is a team out there that could get close to or even attempt to get close to what the Nationals would be asking for.

    You missed one #28 Spencer Jones (RF).
  22. nate82
    That is all on Hader. Probably should have pitched someone else.
  23. nate82
    The international draft decision looks like it is going to be a last minute decision here. MLB made a counter offer but didn't change any of the financials that the MLBPA wanted. Unknown on what exactly MLB changed in their new offer.

    You underestimate the power of idiots.

    I haven’t been excited about a comic in awhile other than Berzerker but this looks and sounds amazing! https://rippaverse.com
