Trading with the Mets makes a lot of sense as Stearns knows our system/prospects very well and I'm sure he has certain ones he prefers

Good news from Wrigley...Yankees beat the Cubs 2-0 so an opportunity to add a game to the division lead tonight

bump

Potential trades... Brewers trade Pena/Drohan/Payne would you rather get Skubal as a rental or Miller for three plus years?? I'm not crazy about giving up Pena for a rental, but Skubal isn't an ordinary rental IMO. Miller is clearly the best relief pitcher in the game right now and you could always flip him to recoup prospect capital in 2-3 years.

I'll go 16-10

Pratt in the lineup, as expected, at SS, batting 8th

17-10

I'll go with a good solid month..16-11

This thread feels like a massive overreaction to me. They gave up two pieces of minimal value IMO, Collins, likely coming off a career year, and Mears, who is "just a guy" they cycle in and out annually, for a guy who could be a well above average bullpen arm. I know early returns aren't great, but I think it's very unlikely he's going any where soon.

I think that schedule argument is a little misleading (small sample size alert). I don't think anyone expects Boston or Toronto to stay under .500, and in terms of the upcoming schedule the Cardinals (x2) and Twins are likely to regress and be under .500.

In terms of scheduling MLB is very conscious of the the majority one time a year interleague series being early in the season in case of games needing to be rescheduled. It gives the league a lot more flexibility to make schedules work over a multiple month timeframe

Would love for the Badgers to get Jackson Shelstad, but that is probably very unlikely as he is already being linked to Gonzaga

Record: 90-72, make playoffs as WC MVP: Turang Cy; Uribe ROY: Gasser Surprise Player: Ortiz improves to slightly above league average Disappointing: Mitchell still can't stay healthy Due to Uribe's success, Trevor Megill is traded at the trade deadline

I think they get off to a solid start...17-13

Maybe the Brewers are in on Issac Paredes
