I avoid the beach so mine doesn't make sense either and without being disgusting not a butt dude either

Finally had some time for some quick thoughts on today's trade

Grind
Beach
Butt

It makes no sense for me

What's interesting about Avila is he was a starter most of last year if you want a tin foil conspiracy point of needing more starting depth. Didn't miss enough bats but had a fantastic fip on a bad team

Bradford, once again getting a big story ahead of the sanctioned and affiliated media (b/c he's doing the hard work).

In this one, it sounds as if MLB wants to be the brand, rather than 30 different brands. MLB wants to be McDonalds. All the franchises are the same. Same food. Same expected 1/

Here is the wRC+ of every 1B from Aug first on. For a 6 hour window Cleveland 3 of the top 19 on their roster

@marcbernardin.bsky.social I am looking forward to your top ten list, very curious if you played dispatch this year I feel like it would have resonated with you due to the story telling aspects involved and the way they are presented

Likely something more like Messick, Stephen, and then a third infielder of some kind

I got to be honest I liked Sung-Mun Song more than Munetaka Murakami think that's a smart get by the Padres. They have a history of taking these gambles at lower years and costs. Worked out for Kim not so much with Matsui.

I kind of dig the trade for everyone. Lowe is a guy who raises the floor when healthy. Burrows I think should be at least a reliever. Melton I have been a big believer in and Tampa has hunted for CF for awhile.

Curious if anyone will figure out or catch me on a different podcast non sports related today

At the same time I could also just see the Rays as moving the rental injury plagued expiring Lowe and then getting a deal that was too good to say no to for Baz. They might not be doing more

If the Rays are tearing it all down Cleveland needs to call today about Yandy and make him a full time DH

No not enough

I went through 41 rounds here are the Guardians top 10 drafted High Schools by bWAR

1 Sabathia 62.3
2 Eckersley 62.1
3 Larry Anderson 13.9
4 Chris Archer 13.5
5 Triston McKenzie 4.9
6 Jaret Wright 4.4
7 Rudy Seanez 3.3
8 Pep Harris 2.9
9t Alan Embree 2.4
9t Aaron Laffey 2.4

I think Cleveland need Rocchio

He was great this year and Ortiz being suspended

Good point as
@jeffmlbdraft.bsky.social
just texted me.

That Jonathan Lucroy deal was:

Greg Allen
Francisco Mejia
Yu Chang
Shawn Armstrong

Armstrong has been the most successful of them since that deal...

My quick take on the great Shawn Armstrong addition

My quick thoughts on Justin Bruihl and the Guardians Cutting lose Noel

youtube.com/shorts/nzTms...

Just sucks because Clase brought him in

So I am finding myself looking at 2 particular profiles on savant to find above average hitters. It's nothing smarter people than me don't know, but will share on the podcast this month as kind of an intro to how people can check with or use savant

If Ortiz had not been corrupted, I would feel better but right now it all rests on Hartle

HOT TAKE: Cleveland might have blundered the Andres Gimenez deal...
By not keeping Spencer Horowitz. Will talk about this a bit on Fridays show

My take on the latest Guardians edition ignore the weird pause. It's cold in my car

youtube.com/shorts/VyR63...

Mountcastle isn't good over his career close to league average with no on base skills Mayo is interesting but will likely cost a lot for a guy who hasn't see his skills translate

Strongest throws on average at 2B and SS both belong to Gabriel Arias last year. His top average beat Rocchio by nearly 10 mph last year. If I could snap my fingers and make any hitter league average for there career with the Guardians it would be him.
