Baseball Blogs Weigh In: Cruz, Rays, Red Sox

By Zachary Links | May 31, 2015 at 10:01am CDT

On this date in 1980, Gary Carter hit the second  inside-the-park home run of his career, as Leo Panetta of NationalPastime.com writes.  Carter would later belt a homer out of the ballpark as well, but that still wasn’t enough to lead the Expos to victory as they lost to the Cardinals, 8-6.  Here’s this week’s look around the baseball blogosphere..

  • Camden Depot says the Orioles were right not to re-sign Nelson Cruz.
  • Rays Colored Glasses says Travis Ishikawa should be a trade target for the Rays.
  • Grading On The Curve discusses Tim Beckham’s roller coaster.
  • Wahoo’s On First looked at Jason Kipnis’ hot streak.
  • RSN Stats took a look back through Boston history.
  • A’s Farm spoke with A’s Director of Player Personnel Billy Owens.
  • Lasorda’s Lair says it’s time to move Jimmy Rollins down in the order.
  • The Point Of Pittsburgh takes a guess at who the Bucs will take in the draft.
  • Rumbunter broke down Gerrit Cole’s domination of the Mets.
  • Reviewing The Brew discussed Jonathan Broxton’s disappointing year.
  • Baseball Hot Corner likes the way that Aaron Sanchez is mixing it up.
  • Reviewing The Brew wonders if the Giants could be a match for Aramis Ramirez.
  • From Duke 2 Joc sees trade matches between the Dodgers and Reds.
  • Astros County looked at starting pitchers of the past in Houston.
  • Outside Pitch says the Cubs are ready to create a dynasty.
  • The First Out At Third defends Mike Fiers.
  • Blue Jays Plus credited Toronto for its base running.

    The Astros County article is about how the pitchers they have traded since the end of the 2013 season have turned out and whether or not they would improve the current rotation.. It goes pretty in depth on Lyles, Cosart, Tropeano, and Foltynewicz. An interesting read but not really about pitchers from the Astros past that I was looking for like Oswalt, Norris, Wandy Rodriguez et al. I look forward to your weekly blog update every Sunday..

    I disagree with Camden Depot’s article on Nelson Cruz 100%!!! For a man his size, with his power, and his age, to call him slow and unathletic sounds more like sour grapes. To be “surprised” that his numbers are good this year is simply trying to stomach that the Orioles, who would need him, flat out wouldn’t pay the guy. And one last touch, Jack Z. of the M’s doesn’t “keep on spending for power”. Cruz is the first legitimate power guy Jack has had the opportunity to go out and get. Cano is not a power guy, more an all around baseball player. Very one sided, poor sided, article, in my opinion.
