Skeptical of the various explanations for Dexter Fowler’s trade – he seemed confused in a recent spring training interview as to why there was a question about his commitment. In any case, I hope he excels in Houston and plays like a true leadoff CF defense wizard.

Feel like Colorado may have really messed up here.
But the speaking in cliches like Weiss is doing rarely helps either

Kiszla’s piece just made me cringe.

There’s a long line of players who have had hand/wrist injuries that have taken quite a while to heal sufficiently. Teixeira, Carl Crawford, Jordan Schafer come to mind immediately.

If fowler has a nice season, he could easily be extended long term by the Astros. They have the cash to do so

Rockies better hope their current set of players have a high WAG (that’s Wins Above Grit) level, as that pitching staff looks brutal.

Ah the ol “grit” argument. I remember this last year when the D-Backs traded J. Upton because he wasn’t “gritty” enough for Gibson, and got the “gritty” player Prado back in return. Of course they went on 81 games, which isn’t surprising when you trade people simply because they aren’t “gritty” enough instead of the actual value they bring to your club.

While I 100% agree. Prado was basically as good as upton last year though.
Defiancy 2
To be fair, outside of CarGo and Tulo, their whole team looks brutal.

Well, Rosario and Arenado are solid pieces as well, but yeah some issues there.

Such a shame the Mets don’t have any hitting. They might have the deepest rotation in baseball even without Harvey and a pen full of flame throwers; they are set up to be great, but just refuse to pay for the rest of the team.
It’s like an experiment… what if you took the pitching from the 1969 Mets and combined it with the attitude and hitting of the 1982 Mets? .500 or bust baby!
