Trade news

From the talk in the NY press, Torres was about as untouchable as a prospect can get. Clint Frazier comes up as a guy they could move though. Maybe him, Kaprielian, and another #20-30 prospect?

Baz signing?

So, the word was that we had a deal in place, and that he was coming to Pittsburgh to sign it on Thursday (yesterday). Yet here we are on Friday evening. No press release. No press conference. No signing - apparently.



Anyone heard anything?

2017 Draft thread

<t>The best college position players left at 12 were White (no-power 1Bman), Warmoth (limited ceiling, probably ends up at 2B), and Kendall (contact issues). <br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> So, White is athletic enough to move to the OF, but with limited power, he's not a great corner OF prospect. That mean...

Glimmer of hope beginning to fade

<t>The disheartening things for me are not so much Kang and Marte. They're disappointing as each player made stupid, preventable mistakes. And Taillon's situation was out of anyone's control. But the things bothering me are the inconsistency of Gerritt Cole, the apparent lack of progress of Polanco,...

TOP 40 UPDATE 6/1

<t>Thanks for the updates, psu. Any thoughts on who should takeover the spots of the guys who no longer qualify for the list?<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Luplow's power surge is really encouraging. And some of the other second tier guys have had good starts too. Now, if they can keep it up while the top ...

Cole Tucker Fractured Thumb

Really tough break (no pun intended :P) for the young man. Hopefully he can get back healthy and make some more progress this season. His bat was starting to come along. But he's already lost a good bit of time thanks to the labrum tear.

June 4th vs Mets

<t>Taillon topped out at 68 pitches in his last start for Indy, so they probably want to stretch him out to at least 80 pitches before having him start for the big club.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> I'm not sure what to make of Glasnow. I never saw him pitch in the minors, but his FB seems to sit 91-95 no...
