    Ue-2016: A Rapidly Decaying Isotope?

    Koji! Great pitcher yes, old pitcher yes. Was he worth a second year, Yes. The problem is not Koji. The problem is the Smith injury. Smith injury was huge. Is Koji in decline? Im sure he is. Again, what are the options when your Cap strapped with more than one CCrawford Contract. Farrell has...

    Pitching Targets

    All the trades sound good. In the end you have to develop a few of your own minor league pitchers. If I'm Dombrowski you have to look at the minor league scouting directors and their body of work the last few years to see where the problem is in that regards.

    Pitching Targets

    MHarvey is a hall of fame talent. Why, why would the Mets consider a trade, because of a few bad starts? The great Pedro had a few as well. No chance. Dombrowski should have let the injury prone and inconsistent CBuc walk and gone after a legit #2 much like SF did with Cueto, Shark and they...

    Crap performance and depth (starting pitching)

    At what point do you hold Willis accountable ? At what point do you hold Dombrowski accountable for this mess or does he get a pass since he inherited the mess. Jeff Jones get a call?

    The MLB Draft

    Many of the scouting publications hype these players up to make themselves (the publication) stand out amongst the rest. That's perfectly fine. Again, college ball is the equivalent of rookie ball or less. Think about this kid on the mound in the 7th or 8th of close game vs Bautista, Donaldson...

    Early season bullpen thread

    Because you don't draft for need. You take the best player you think will make to the show regardless of the position. College baseball is equivalent to rookie league ball. The numbers are so inflated it does not translate into MLB production. Young arm in Pawtucket KMartin 26IP 34K 3BB and...

    The MLB Draft

    Scouts say its pitching rich atop the draft? Does that translate into a pitcher being picked at 12? I don't know. Sheffield of Vandy I've seen pitch twice. Generates quite a few swings and misses. That is what I look for and 3 plus pitches. Not saying he is the best available but a player that...

    The MLB Draft

    You don't draft for need in baseball. You draft who you deem the best player might be regardless of position.

    FIRE JOHN FARRELL (v.2)

    After all of those pitching Stats, shouldn't the Pitching Coach be shown the door? The thread is mute. No playoffs and Farrell is gone.
