Here’s a recap of the original analysis MLBTR offered over the last week:
- With the Astros having released center fielder Carlos Gomez, Steve Adams broke down eight potential fits for the former star. The Rangers, whom Steve included, have since signed Gomez.
- Jeff Todd looked at eight midseason prospect call-ups who are impacting the postseason race.
- Mark Polishuk forecast the upcoming offseason’s qualifying offer market, concluding that at least 11 players are locks to receive a QO. There are also plenty of other players who could also be in the mix, as Mark detailed.
- Jason Martinez examined the 10 American League playoff contenders’ needs in the wake of the Aug. 1 non-waiver trade deadline.
- In this week’s “Knocking Down the Door,” Jason listed four pitching prospects and two young infielders who are making cases for promotions.
- Despite being in first place, the Indians could certainly stand to upgrade at catcher. With that in mind, Steve polled readers on which path they should take at the position.
- I ranked the five best rookies in each league (AL, NL) as the end of the regular season draws closer.
- Finally, Jeff focused on the performance and potential offseason earning power of Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner, an impending free agent.
All great write ups guys, keep up the great work. And thank you.
On behalf of the staff, thanks!
I would be remiss if I did not thank you guys for the job the entire does everyday. I have just recently found this site and downloaded the app just about a month ago. You keep me entertained and well informed of my hobby that I so enjoy, the game of baseball. Plus, I do not have anyone to talk to about baseball so I really appreciate this forum.
Great to hear. Thank you!
Thanks for all the great articles!
