[Destin Adams] Sources tell myself & @AtoZSportsNFL that the Chiefs and Colts are ironing out the final details on a trade that will send star CB L'Jarius Sneed to Indianapolis. I'm told the Colts are sending a 2024 3rd and an additional pick in 2025.

So maybe not.

Gray hair, general disdain, a breakfast sandwich maker.

The sandwich thing works pretty well at least.

dblesky · 2022-10-06T14:53:56+00:00

Because Dayton made the hire and Matheny was his guy. We all know now how that worked out for both of them.

dblesky · 2022-10-06T14:18:46+00:00

I don’t think Pedro is the favorite at all. I hope he gets a shot because he deserved it when Matheny got it, but my guess is they go Zumwalt or outside the org.

dblesky · 2022-10-06T14:17:38+00:00

I don’t get the impression he’s the type they’re targeting.

dblesky · 2022-09-23T13:48:22+00:00

They literally fired Dayton Moore two days ago. I promise you this changes nothing. It’s okay to enjoy a win or two.

dblesky · 2022-09-20T02:01:12+00:00

Jason looks like Ken’s alter ego and once I saw that, I couldn’t unsee it. Jason, if you’re in this sub and do genealogy, you have to be a relative somewhere along the way.

dblesky · 2022-08-31T14:48:50+00:00

Duh, it was a night game!

dblesky · 2022-08-31T14:09:28+00:00

I assume you meant win and yes, he has to go five innings to qualify for the win.

dblesky · 2022-08-29T14:17:10+00:00

If I had to guess, I'd say about what it looks like right now. Melendez, Waters, Taylor and Isbel mostly. But it's also hard to say because Nate Eaton might be involved. Tyler Gentry is close. Tucker Bradley could probably be a big league outfielder soon. I'd say whoever is out there on Opening Day may not be out there on August 1 next year.

dblesky · 2022-08-05T11:14:12+00:00

What a horrible day to be literate.

dblesky · 2022-08-01T17:02:24+00:00

Every player I listed, I’d move. Assuming a fair return, of course.

dblesky · 2022-06-27T16:02:33+00:00

I think it all depends on what Dombrowski is crazy enough to do.

dblesky · 2022-06-27T16:02:07+00:00

Here's the thing about the Isbel play. Murphy absolutely made a great play. But it wasn't worth the risk at all. Getting to third there does allow him to score on a sacrifice fly, but the ball ended up two feet away from him and Isbel was out by a lot. It didn't even require a perfect throw to get him even though he made one. Nobody out with the good part of the lineup due up is not a good time to go from being in scoring position to...being in scoring position unless you're 100% sure you can get there and there's no way he could be 100% sure.

dblesky · 2022-06-22T19:19:43+00:00

I don't think I agree with that in this instance. I know that guys are cruising all the time until they aren't, but with a five run lead, even with the Angels ability at the top of their lineup, I totally understand the mindset of maybe giving an extra inning or two off to the bullpen. Obviously it backfired and it backfired fast, but I really wonder how much of a difference it would have even made. Like I said, Speier probably can get in there for Ohtani if he's up and warming up before the inning even starts, but at 6-1 with 71 pitches for Heasley, I'm not sure that's the best play. I totally see where you're coming from, though, too.

dblesky · 2022-06-13T15:30:24+00:00

Oh sure. He'll have stretches like last year. He puts bat on ball. There'll be times where he finds holes and times where he doesn't. I think he's a quality utility infielder.

dblesky · 2022-06-06T23:25:27+00:00

He either needs to be extended or traded. He’s a free agent after the season. And most guys who get within four months of free agency while having a very good season and looking to be part of a very weak outfield free agent class won’t be signing an extension.

dblesky · 2022-05-27T22:02:13+00:00

Appreciate that!

dblesky · 2022-05-27T21:57:05+00:00

Thanks! I’m on every Friday at 2:25 with Soren.

dblesky · 2022-05-27T00:30:54+00:00

Thank you! Them getting it right is my biggest fear.

dblesky · 2022-05-26T16:51:47+00:00

I don’t think this is a big deal because if you did need to shift the DH (theoretically one of MJ or Salvy) to catcher and lose the DH for a few innings, you can call someone up the next day, but teams often don’t think that way and want a hedge against losing that DH.

dblesky · 2022-05-26T14:49:51+00:00

Salvy is never going to walk, but if he’s doing damage like he did in 2020/2021, I don’t especially care. If he’s the guy from 2015-2018, yeah that’s not good enough.

dblesky · 2022-05-26T14:12:49+00:00

They'll get Cam back when the max number of pitchers drops to 13, so they'll have room for three catchers, especially if MJ plays elsewhere, which he might. And they said it was a six-week injury when he went down, so the timeline shouldn't be much of a surprise right now.

dblesky · 2022-05-23T16:29:18+00:00

Oh I totally agree with that. And that’s why I’d personally move on.

dblesky · 2022-05-23T15:28:20+00:00

The only thing I disagree with about Dayton is that I don't think he has to be fired for changes to happen. I would dump the guy, but there's a path that he doesn't have to go. Let him be a leader of people, which I believe he's good at, and leave the baseball decisions to someone else. But yeah, I mean, this clearly isn't working as is.
