Mark Saxon @markasaxon I really like the @jaysonst idea of leading the MLB draft with the first team to miss the playoffs and so on until you get to the worst team, which is almost always tanking. I dunno. That's a hell of a reward for a hypothetical team (no one I know, for sure) that did too litt...

Re: Philadelphia Phillies 2021 Offseason

It’s as if Kingery has disappeared off the face of the earth. .His story is perhaps the most amazing fall from Grace in my over 65 years of following this team...

Re: Philadelphia Phillies 2021 Offseason

Sounds like there's an AL East bidding war (Jays, BoSox, Yanks) over Japanese OF Seiya Suzuki. Provides a nice excuse for Phillies coming up short. Meanwhile, if the season started today our OF is something like Vierling-Moniak-Harper. So we've got that going for us. I really thought they might go ...

Re: MLB 2021 Offseason

Low-key but potentially great move by the Red Sox picking up Alex Binelas in that JBJ trade with with the Brewers. Basically, they bought Binelas by eating JBR's ugly contract. .... Binelas a corner outfielder thumper who is the #65 prospect in MLB.

If they're trying to contend AND stay under what the 2021 "cap" was, then Knebel for 1/10 is not a good use of coin.
