Broad Street

One of the great things about living in Japan is, even though I'm overseas, I still get to enjoy live baseball. Every spring Japanese Major League teams come to Okinawa for their version of Spring Training. This weekend I'm going to go check it out this weekend, see if I can't catch a few games. Anyone want me to scout someone for them? haha

Nationals released 30. So many minor leaguers lost their jobs today, for what? So owners could save a couple grand? I still can’t believe anyone would be mad at the players in these negotiations. 

Not the Royals. They’re paying all their minor leaguers. I don’t think the Angels have said whether or not they’re going to continue to pay them yet. After seeing the backlash the A’s and Nationals got, I can’t imagine them not. 

I don’t think Kimbrell will make it. 

I would be absolutely ecstatic if Asa Lacy fell to us at #10. That kid has some great stuff. But I doubt he even makes it to 5. 

10/300 seems like a massive overpay for a pitcher, regardless of skill. We drop $300m on a pitcher, how much do we have left to make more additions? It may make more sense to sign 2 plan B pitchers and/or swing a trade. 

I wouldn’t want to go anywhere near Hamels. Nothing about him has screamed that he would be a good addition, other than name recognition. I would love MadBum but I worry a bit about the miles on that arm, but he is younger than Strasburg.

I know it’s been brought up before, but I can’t believe MadBum is younger than Strasburg. Feels like he’s been around forever. 

Strasburg opts out... let the Cole/Strasburg  wet dreams begin... 

I’m pretty sure he’s pissed he didn’t get to come in and pitch after Greinke

People are going to flip the first time he sticks a reliever in LF so he can use him again one batter later.

I don't know why I'm upset because they obviously know way more than me, but I'm still upset.
