Napoli's current line against the Angels:

.718/.844/.997, 134 HR, 2 K's

And the two Ks were called 3rd strikes by an Eric Gregg clone.

It looks like the Twins signed Jason Castro 3 year $24M.

Glad we dodged that bullet.

Of course, me saying that guaranteed him his best season ever.

The fact the Astros traded for Brian McCann instead of signing Castro should say something.

It turns out that Trout is a avid bowler. Has his owns ball that he keeps at the bowling alley. 

High score is 220

Are you insinuating that Trout is better than perfect?

Perfect and then half again. Like the Amish

Yes. In fact, Trout is an old Algonquin word that means "perfect, and then some."

[totdprods]

Dipoto just pulled off quite a Dipoto trade. Taijuan Walker and Ketel Marte for Segura plus prospects. 

Like him or not, that's one ballsy trade.

[mulwin444]

CALZONE will be fapping along with every hit Jean has against the Angels...with his eyes closed

[totdprods]

Maybe Jerry will give us Segura for Skaggs now

[bloodbrother]

Like that deal a lot for Arizona. So are the M's going to fill Walker's rotation spot with a FA pickup in this weak market?

[HALOS23]

M's got better. Segura was a 5.7 WAR player last year. Put his bat up in a lineup with Seager, Cano, & Cruz. That's pretty good. 

Walker may realize his promise but if he couldn't in a pitcher's park in Seattle... Not sure he will in Az

[Troll Daddy]

I like Segura but can he duplicate those numbers in 2017?

 

[Stradling]

I don't know.  Does WAR take into account park effect?  

[marcosantinia12]

I really like the deal for AZ as well. Segura really broke out last year but I would expect some slight regression. Walker is a cheap, quality young pitcher with frontline upside. Of course going from Seattle to AZ doesn't help his cause but he has the stuff and I think that he's young enough where you can expect him to improve regardless of the stadium. As far as Segura, it is a loss in the lineup but Marte strikes me as Segura-light (though no power) and could himself benefit from leaving Safeco. 

 

Despite all the dirt the dbacks get, and deservingly so, Greinke, Miller, Corbin, Walker, and DeLaRosa/Ray/Bradley is a pretty damn good rotation if everyone can come close to approach in their expected performances. That's a big "if" of course.

[Broad Street]

Keep in mind that Segura didn't really have a "breakout" season last year, his was a couple years ago with the Brewers. I'd expect a little regression, but I like this deal for both teams.

Thank god. We can cross this bum off the list
