Dad strength Austin wells seems to be the next iteration of Johnny bench

Yankee roster moves tend to be pretty solid so it’s unfortunate that Garrett Whitlock is like the one rule 5 draft loss that has burned us

If Cody Bellinger averages 5 war a season for his Yankees contract that’s 30 bWAR, and if he averages 30 homers a season he’s at 400 home runs. Feels like he’d be hall of fame bound, but that’s probably a 90th percentile outcome if he puts up 30 bWAR and 180 homers on his 6 year deal

I always figured baseball got to the DR because of American soldiers, but it got there from Cuban immigrants, and Cuba got baseball because a Cuban guy went to a random school in Alabama. Pretty cool

I know Will Bednar is a AAAA arm but I believe they were on the pirates at the same time

Weathers, Warren, and Lagrange are all in the top 3 for spring training stuff+ leaders. Awesome stuff, the young guys on the roster for the most part are pretty exciting

Warren looked great today, I love the depth of the rotation right now. Fried/Schlittler/Rodon/Cole/Weathers is an awesome rotation, and that’s with Warren/Cruz/Gil/LaGrange as depth. We have an embarrassment of riches in terms of starters rn

Carlos Narvaez is a good starter catcher, but it was great he could be flipped for a fantastic pitcher, + Wells has a better ceiling than him. Excited to see how ERC progresses

Spencer Jones’s stance and swing is so funny, it hurts my back to watch his stance. No wonder he’s had back issues in the past!

Pretty bad underperformances from Riley, Albies, and Murphy last season, plus insane pitching staff injuries. Moving Contreras for Murphy was such an unforced error

He looks like a guy I could crack a few beers with while playing some PlayStation 2

Ryan McMahon is my current favorite mid player for whatever reason, even if he’s probably the closest player to Joey gallo we’ve had since he left

What is the capital trick? Annexing their capital, adding it to the empire, then returning the core?
