Did you see the Twins' 8-5 triple play?
-
8-5 force out at 3B is impressive/embarrassing. Any position player ever cracked 100 MPH in the 'Statcast Era'?...

Move over O'Neil- Ju-Rod gunned down Gurriel Jr. at 3rd with 99.6 last night.
-
Man, weird how Cole has really become that kind of "don't sweat it start to start, just trust the final numbers will be fine" guy
-
Hoskins is in fact the droid/1B I'm looking for, regardless of Rime's understandable attempt to Jedi mind trick me...

If you can convince ottoneu that he actually plays 2B and OF, I'm in!
-
I have a compromise: let's just negotiate here on the message board so it's totally transparent. I can start the bidding by saying that the Phillies just discovered some lost paperwork for a passport and Rhys Hoskins is actually 24. Did you hear that?
-
Saint: No, you don't. You're fine with your team as it is.
-
Roar: Hey, I, uh, could have some interest in, uh, one of those players...

Rime: Now's the time to trade for Contreras (the Cubs version) and Hoskins!
-
And there it went... 9-point lead just evaporated over the past 4 days.
-
Probably just noise, but I've just oddly discovered that Ohtani has hit for more power this year at DH than when pitching (.514 SLG, 17 HR vs. .417 SLG, 1 HR), but gets on base better when pitching (.306 AVG / .405 OBP vs. .255/.337). Weird.
-
New Ohtani Rule for 2023 in the link at top of the page. Naturally I'm a fan.
-
Oh yeah we made sure to pass ol' Nicasio around with 3 trades before his quite effective 61 innings in '17.
-
...who, by the by, was involved in the other Mike Trout trade in our league way back in the bygone days of 2017...

King Felix up for bid... someone knows something I don't? :D
-
I considered dropping La Stella out of the counter & asking for $2 more instead of $1, but didn't want to push it...

Also, Rime, for the record, I just want to point out that it was St. N who counter-offered for an extra $1 loan and justified it by saying it would be available from the earlier deal with you — demonstrating not just that he’s paying attention but that his math skills are strong. Took me a second to figure out that a 2 for 3 would leave him with $0 but 1 roster spot.
-
I hereby invite Inkosi to get in on this action!

Trout & Soto & Acuña & Judge, is that a good outfield?
-
Remains to be seen if Inkosi gets in on this action
-
I can’t believe you took one of the four dollars I generously threw in (or left out? It was your loan) to our deal and turned it around to make the deal with the Saint work.
-
Playing one side against the other, really admirable work
-
Way to play both sides, Roar...oh, that's right, I'm one of the sides...Holy Cannoli, I traded for Mike "Kilgore" Trout!

It's not every day that you trade Mike Trout and Jacob deGrom in the span of minutes.
-
love these blockbusters!!! boom!
-
SNGS may yet catch the Commish sometime this season but in the meantime I'll enjoy his auction tiebreak angst...

Curse you and your tiebreaker win, Nebula! Not that I would have traded an 8-point standings lead for Raisel. 1 or 1.5 points maybe.
-
And only Austin Meadows could strain both his Achilles. While on the covid IL. Well, maybe Kyle Lewis..
-
Just in time for him to heat up. His bat is needed.
-
Yes. Thank you Trader Jerry for getting Santana of the KC roster.
-
that's a good day baddoo!
-
But, hey, Baddoo, it's Pasquantino Day! A harbinger of a brighter day for your team...and perhaps a new name.

Yeah sometimes it's more like nightmare on baseball street
-
Jack Suwinski is having a better year in this league that Bo Bichette... ohh, *fantasy baseball*
-
Just saw that Cruz 96.7 throw. Yikes!
-
Indeed, Commish. Shaping up to very likely be a long summer with the potential for a heck of a pennant race.

It's a close race at the top!!
-
Ha! that made me laugh @horns …imagine where we *could* have been… haha
-
cutch, well mine is worse than yours so now i feel like shit. thanks.
-
my on base percentage sucks incase anyone was unaware!
-
I knew Isaac was going to hit eventually. Congrats on being the recipient.
-
De las ventaaaaaanas… a los Paredes!
-
Nah, soak it all in! OC has been traded 6 times in this league (5 involving me!) but ended up here for the call-up. He's been used to acquire Yusei Kikuchi, Mitch Keller, Isan Diaz, Miguel Andujar, Christian Yelich, Dellin Betances, Max Scherzer, Charlie Blackmon, and Joey Wendle over the years.
-
…ok I am done. 🏴☠️

… he also had the three high spring speeds on the Bucs this year!
-
But that's not to say Cruz didn't also get the job done with his bat. He went 2 for 4 with a double, four RBI and a 113 mph exit velocity on the double. Sheesh!
-
Cruz is one of the most physically imposing middle infield prospects I can ever remember since I started watching baseball. He has better-than-realized speed and the ball jumps off his bat. But in his debut, it was his fielding -- specifically his throwing arm -- that drew oohs and aahs from the crowd. Cruz ripped a 96.7 mph throw from the infield to first base -- a toss that has only been topped by one player in the Statcast era.
