The Q
Hoop’s Villain, Reality’s Hero
I think Strasburg will sign a short term deal with the Nats.
he just opted out of 4 years. He’s getting at least 5 imo.

Trading one former highly regarded prospect who fell off for another, but Grisham struggled in the minors before having a big 2019 while Urias usually did great in the minors and struggled at the majors. The team needs another lefty bat which he brings but there needs to be a move or two with the OFers because they had too many of them already. Urias has more upside but it's not a guarantee that he(or Grisham) will reach his full potential. From the pitchers perspective they add a more experienced but still somewhat young RHP who at times looks great and at times looks bad for a younger LHP who....well same thing. The Padres shouldn't need Lauer with the amount of capable arms they have at the major and minor league levels. I thought they'd get more for Urias, like maybe use him in a trade for a TOR pitcher. Will he turn into a consistent batting title contender and make multiple all star games? It's possible, and with the Padres history wouldn't surprise me at all. We won't really know who benefited most from this trade for a few years. I hope this doesn't hurt their chances of signing FTJ to a longer contract, it seemed like he was good friends with Urias.really don't get it from the padres perspective

MLB needs to get their shit together. You don't have openers in Chicago and Cleveland during March. Torture is illegal in most countries.
Yeah, season starts a month to early. Should start around the last weekend of April. You'd have most of the cold weather out of the way at that point.
Villar to the Marlins for a minor league pitcher. He was arguably the best player on the Orioles, for whatever that is worth. Pretty good pickup for Miami.
Moustakas gets 4 years, $64 million from the Reds. Good on him
Thanks for the last 2 years, Mous
They could make a serious run at 4th place in the NL East......
Per Ken Rosenthal, Zack Wheeler already has at least one offer north of $100M.
Boggles the mind to think what Cole and Strasburg are looking at.
There’s going to be some expensive Cole in some teams stocking this Xmas.....
No such thing as a bad one year deal, but I hope we still get MadBumCole Hamels is an Atlanta Brave.
1 year/$18M
Cole Hamels is an Atlanta Brave.

Zack Wheeler to the Phillies, 5 years, somewhere north of $100M
