October 24, 20187 yr Phweeew! For a brief moment I thought you were talking about Alcides. I unclenched when I saw the Ari part.
October 25, 20187 yr New skipper for the Twinkies is some dude named Rocco Baldelli. Apparently he's the Rays field coordinator, whatever that means. According to the Strib, first manager hire from outside the organization since 1985.

October 26, 20187 yr Wait. Are people really pretending that stealing signs is a big deal? LOLOLOLOLOL It's baseball. Every single team in the league is stealing signs. Even the lowly Rangers.
October 26, 20187 yr This one is funny. Quote Left field National League: Corey Dickerson, Pirates; Adam Duvall, Braves; Christian Yelich, Brewers Dickerson was so bad in Col, Tampa moved him to DH. Duvall lost his job, didn’t make Atl’s postseason roster. Yelich started more games in RF.

October 26, 20187 yr I’m just glad Hosmer got left off. Is Josh Bell still coming here? https://www.fangraphs.com/leaders.aspx?pos=1b&stats=fld&lg=nl&qual=850&type=1&season=2018&month=0&season1=2018&ind=0&team=0&rost=0&age=0&filter=&players=0&sort=13,d

October 30, 20187 yr Qualifying offer question: if player rejects QO, are there any restrictions imposed on him re-signing with the team that extended the QO?

November 1, 20187 yr dodgers are crazy if they decide to pay kershaw going forward. anybody here think kershawnis even 70-80% of his cy young self going forward?
November 2, 20187 yr Well he’s a sub 3 era guy and there aren’t that many of them around. That being said he’s not the CK of 4 years ago. Still valuable. Not worth 30M a year.
November 2, 20187 yr Which is why he shouldn't opt outMaybe. But if he’s on a decline and continues to have issues staying healthy, his prospects as a free agent in two years might not be so great so his overall earnings could benefit from grabbing more guaranteed money now. He should be able to get something like 7/$200m right now. So it’s a question of whether he and his agent think he could get at least 5/$130m two years from now.
