Don't worry, Rizzo hasn't be able to sit down for over a month since Rick Hahn destroyed it. Rizzo is now day to day, he should be able to fix the bullpen soon.....
maybe with Robertson. He will lube up first this time.
I want to try out the young guy, Koda Glover first. If that doesn't work, I'll buy the silicone based lube myself, the lady at the sex shop recommended that over the water based stuff for anal. word.....the waterbased stuff doesn't last.
I'm sure Rizzo knows that now.

It's still perplexing they gave up all of their trade chips to get Adam Eaton. That trade would have been vetoed in a fantasy league They thought they had Chris Sale. When that fell through they panicked. Eating is good, but that was a hell of an overpay.

If David Stern were the commish of baseball, he would have vetoed that shit. if they got Eaton and Robertson for that same package, I think people would have said "Nice trade for both sides"

Forsythe hit 20 HRs last year .....decent pop for a 2B.(wont hit that many in LA though) He's not on TB anymore? I really pay almost zero attention to the NL west, totally missed that one. Is Utley elsewhere? still there I think........but not a starter anymore.

Im not expecting them to get much for him. Should get a ton for Quintana, maybe a little something for Frazier....little less than that for Robertson...
I'm surprised some AL team isn't looking at Melky....professional hitter.....

He was a shitty CF....they moved him to RF and he was very good. Washington is going to play him in CF. Shitty/stupid baserunner.

Dirt even said as much to me before the season started last year. He better be right on that. Eaton definitely filled a hole.

He's a huge upgrade over what they had in center before Turner got going. And Werth won't be around for too much longer, so he can slide into that spot at some point.

exactly, it still would have been a great haul for both of them

Lopez is probably the prize of that trade......anything Giolito gives the whitesox is a bonus

Eaton is a good player, and I'm not totally sold on Giolito either, but he still held pretty nice value for now

Harper probably has the better arm, but isn't CF more taxing on the player? I need Harper's bat going more than anything. No way Murphy is as good as he was last season.

Im not sure the Giants fixed their bullpen problems with Melancon..
He definitely would have helped the Nats bullpen!! Nothing will help the nats. They are as much of a lock to choke in the playoffs as the caps are.

NL looks pretty straight forward
Cubs Nats SF/LA - loser is 1 WC
Pit/Stl for the other. I think Pit.

deGrom was hurt most of last year, too. They have great young arms, but can't keep them healthy.

How many wins for the Yankees this year? No honest idea, I'll say mid to high 80's is where I'd cap it, but could see them floating right around .500 too. Just no idea how the starting pitching will be. Lots of young bats, so there will be slumps I'm sure. Arrow is pointing up, but this isn't the year
