using your own theory STL should never had made the playoffs.

That isn't the case at all. I never had a problem with one wild card.

Yes we could have won in spite of and the fake rainout surely did not help but using your own theory STL should never had made the playoffs.

Refresh my memory, but didn't the rainout give us the opportunity to bring Holland back? That part is a little fuzzy. It was definitely a fake rainout though.

Or more demand for players and the lessor teams make some available that in the past wanted to make available such as Minor who we waited a year to trade

Ha we shall see

Demand might be higher, might be, but the supply would definitely be less and it takes two to tango.

As it turns out, that might have been one of the best mistakes we ever made, if Harris continues to develop the way he did last year.

The rainout allowed their ace to pitch game 7. He would have had to go on short rest, maybe very short rest. Would have to look up.

A lot of things went wrong though. we overused Ogando in prior series and season. Maybe I am Monday morning quarterbacking but Wash never rested guys as needed. Way too loyal to the vets

College baseball season starts today. Potential top 10 draft picks Chase DeLauter, Brooks Lee, Jace Jung, Jacob Berry, Brock Jones and Gavin Cross will begin to show everyone why they are the pick to make. This should be a great year for all of them. Maybe someone else jumps into the fray, maybe even a pitcher.

I'll definitely make it out to some Baylor games this season.

Urgency or a sense of business

Well hope it’s is productive

it's being mentioned on Reddit that a ST start date of March 5/6 would mean that the Regular Season still starts on time.

because teams sign players to minor league deals with an invite to ST and a number of non-40 minor leaguers also get invited. Jung isn't on the 40 but he attended ST last year and was sure to do so this year

the sooner a deal is struck, the sooner all that can begin. But it will be a madhouse either way.
