Johnny King was a huge draft win for the Blue Jays.
More on King’s breakout 2025 season in today’s article.
Come for the story, stay for the MLB Star he comps too. www.baseballamerica.com/stories/why-...
I answered multiple chat questions in my recent Reds chat that were explaining why the Reds should move ELDC off SS. There seem to be a subset of Reds fans who focus on getting annoyed with the team's best players. (See Joey Votto for another example)

Almost every time an MLB trade happens, I can see the logic for both sides.
In this O's-Angels trade, I can't find the logical underpinning unless Baltimore is really worried about Rodriguez's recovery from elbow issues.

Not counting the lost 2020 covid season, Rodriguez has thrown

He's topped 85 innings in 4 of his 6 pro seasons.
The illogical part is even if he pitched 85 innings a year for the next 4 years at what he was in 2024 then that would be more valuable than one year of Ward.
