What exactly does cash consideration mean?
They used to say a player was sold to another team. Now they say he was traded for cash considerations. It just means the Pirates received money.
Why don't they say how much money?
I think it's just a policy not to say how much.

Lamb isn't on the 40-man roster but if he was recalled, Tellez would be moved and that opens a spot. There's no good reason why that hasn't h...

Re: Game thread 5/15

That's the difference between a team that's trying to win and a team that's trying to maximize profits. Topnotch slugging 1Bmen are very expensive and that eliminates them from consideration. So there's a model that Cherington looks for in first basemen. And it has to be a model that is not in high...

The Brewers had no problem letting him move on. That's the difference between a team that's trying to win and a team th...

Another Brewer HR!. 9-1.

Re: Game thread 5/15

This is the 3rd poor start in a row for Perez. And 5 of his last 6 have not been very good. I think it's concerning because last year he started out pitching well for Texas but was moved to the bullpen in August after struggling consistently in July.
