So the White Sox made a deal for Nomar Mazara apparently they're attempting to compete now.

Figured someone would've grabbed Zach Brown from the Brewers by now. Those starters with some rough edges who have a nice pitch or two and can be tossed into a bullpen role for a season always seem to fly off the board. |

So the Padres left a couple guys unprotected that are decently thought of and none got picked.

That ain't AAA. A 24 year old in his 5th professional season kicking the ass out of 19 year olds but still striking out less than a batter per inning should make you take pause. That's not to say that the scouting report wouldn't support taking a flier on him - it very well may. But I wouldn't put an ounce of stock in the numbers of an overaged pitcher beating the hell out of dudes who just got in or are on their way out of professional ball. |

And I NEVER said it was a “Franchise Killer”, I said that I didn’t like it and was not a fan. But thanks for allowing me to live rent free in your head for years, even though it’s a shitty space. Oh yeah: How many games did the Royals lose in 2018? The first time you correctly predict something will be the first. |

His trades were epic. He gave away a bunch of junk for top flight veterans. Even (especially?) the Myers trade where he didn’t do much and Odorizzi was above avg, got Montgomery back for free later down the road.
The Cueto deal in hindsight is hilarious. He shined up a cubic zirconia and told the pawn shop it was a diamond |
