Yeah the Pirates who supposedly wanted a king's ransom for Reynolds will give up their opening day starter with 2 more years of team control after this season to a division rival!
Rumor is Betts is going to be playing SS tomorrow. He's played 112 professional innings at SS all the way back in 2011 and 2012 in rookie ball and low-A
He can play multiple positions but he’s not very good anywhere. He had a pretty brutal throwing error on a routine grounder to 3B today. Still think he might end up at 1B eventually especially if his bat continues to progress.
Interesting pickup. Former 1st round pick all the way back in 2017. He clearly has battled a lot of injuries because he's only thrown 57 total innings since 2020.
Judge (a stat guy at Baseball Prospectus) thinks that Contreras has shown enough to be considered a legit framer now because he has exceeded the small sample size probable error.
I don't know why people didn't like that send. 2 outs and Mitchell who has been struggling at the plate on deck. It was a gutsy call and I was screaming send the whole way when it went through Crawford's legs.
It was a hanging curveball. The location wasn't bad but it was a terrible pitch. He threw another hanger to France and was bailed out by Anderson on an amazing play.
Why do you think that? Winker said that his oblique soreness was because of excessive coughing from his bronchitis not from baseball activities and that he expects to be ready to play on Tuesday.
Changeup has always been Small's best pitch. His inability to throw a quality third pitch (it was a slider) is part of the reason he is now in the pen with command issues obviously being the biggest reason.
This makes me feel way better actually reading it. Of the 8 players in Japan who had this injury the median return time was 81.5 days (seems the standard deviation was quite large though) and none of the players had a recurrent injury to that area in the 21 months post recovery. Woodruff last pitched April 7th. If he could return at 82 days that would put him back around the beginning of July.
Just because Lopez signed a garbage deal doesn’t mean Woodruff, Burnes or Adames would.
Im becoming increasingly frustrated by you constantly moaning about how much better the Padres and Twins are being run here on the Brewers page.
