Wouldn’t be permanent, just next season while he recovers.  Harper as DH is better than no Harper at all.

My sources have confirmed that he doesn't really want to get to 300 wins if that's true.

Shohei DH’d after TJ.  I doubt Harper misses much time.  

Ohtani had his surgery on October 1, 2019 and didn’t take an official AB until July 24. Harper is getting his surgery almost 2 months later in the calendar so a similar timeline indicates a missed season.

Or get paid.

Or have a sewage-free clubhouse

I'm sure Oakland is going to give him a 3 year deal that's almost 3 times their annual payroll.

I look forward to them becoming a Rangers affiliate in the next few years.  And then an Astros. And then a Rangers. And then an Astros and so on and so forth.  Nolan Ryan has made a lot of money playing the 2 franchises against each other.

Hard to imagine that as long as Crane owns the Astros

(and/or the Astros own teams in Sugarland and Corpus)

I know.  I would be very pissed if the Astros ever left Corpus.  I love that field.

Not any more, with Frisco and Corpus hanging around.

 I had no idea that San Antonio has had  some iteration of Missions’ baseball since 1888. And it’s fitting that their current affiliation is the Padres. 

It's about fucking time. I can't imagine there has been anybody worse at PBP for as long as this chode. Now if Hudler follows him out to pasture I can possibly overlook the Royals giving Ryan O'Hearn a contract for next year.

 

I assume both clubs are going to have to fire their gm's.  Scratch that.  The Yankees punishment will be having to give Cashman a 10 year extension.

Yankees & Mets being investigated for collusion.

https://www.si.com/mlb/2022/11/17/aaron-judge-free-agency-mets-yankees-tampering

Side note: If you Google "Yankees Mets collusion" it will try to give you results for Yankees Mets collision which brings up some hilarious articles from May and June looking forward to the inevitable October matchup in the WS.

Yep that will definitely be a thorough investigation. Manfred already said he's sure what the conclusion will be. Publicly.

Oh, I am fully aware of all of that, but MLB would do well to take this seriously.  MLBPA seems to be, and a grievance for CBA violation will likely be filed.

The incredible thing is that the owners were the ones who demanded the no-collusion rule in the CBA (from back in the Koufax-Drysdale days) but they're the only people who have had trouble following the rule.

Kyle Lewis traded to AZ

I didn't realize that Lewis is already 27.  

Of course they're trading him for a 27-yo corner outfielder who can't hit, which makes zero sense.  And the DBacks still have a shit-ton of outfielders.

I've always wondered about it from the player side when it seems like all of mlb are represented by about 4 agents.

Well, the owners are represented by 1 agent.

Yankees-Mets thing is weird. I thought it was well known that for years the two teams had a gentleman’s agreement not to go after each other’s players. Why is it a big deal now?

Yankees have made a new offer for Judge. Looks like Hal might be willing to spend big this offseason 

Quote

Even with some form of record payday likely looming for Judge — MLBTR predicted an eight-year, $332MM contract on last week’s Top 50 rankings — Steinbrenner went on to note that he’s made clear to Judge that there’s ample payroll space to not only re-sign the recently crowned AL MVP but also make further additions to supplement the roster (via Lennon).

Even without Judge, the Yankees are projected for a bottom-line payroll north of $206MM, per Roster Resource, and a luxury-tax bill that’s already at nearly $223MM. Judge alone would push the Yankees into the second tier of luxury penalization, and any subsequent moves of note would then likely push the team into the third or possibly even newly created fourth tier of luxury penalties. Of course, those figures assume that the Yankees will tender contracts to and subsequently keep all 14 of their arbitration-eligible players, which seems unlikely. At least some of that group figures to be non-tendered before tonight’s 8pm ET deadline or tendered but subsequently trad

Whoa!

with that kind of red ass, they might be able to push the Astros to 5 games next year. 

Gio urshela traded to Angels....mmmmkay

They should get the whole gang back together and re-sign Odor and Gallo too

Signing Rangers castoffs seems like a surefire way to win a title.

Judge, Correa and Verlander to the dodgers. Win 115 games in the regular season. Playoff outcome still questionable.

Meh. The one Buxton is wearing is nice, but not a fan of the new M cap - looks like the Stanton-era Marlins cap. This is a case of fixing what wasn’t broken.

If and when the new harbor bridge is ever finished (a really big if right now) then Whataburger Field will lose some of its charm in my opinion without the bridge in the background and its lights.
