I'm okay with that. How 'bout adding the phillies, dodgers, angels to the list? They, too, have had big problems in their cities. But, especially NY.
I'll allow it.

I haven't check this thread in probably a month so I didn't go back to see if there was any discussion about this. A thought about Altuve and his chase for 3000 hits. With this injury issues the last couple of years and now this season being in jeopardy, there is a very real chance that his quest for 3000 has dried up. This will end up costing him about a years worth of games and you just don't recover from that in your late 30's. Hate to see that happen to him but at this point its a very real possibility.
Correct. As of yesterday, he is 30.TREX01 said:

That has to be optimal outcome for Astros. It's hard to fathom anyone getting a premium talent after round 5 on $20k and the ones they do get are likely due to other reasons (ie a guy signing with Rangers from DFW). We have 4 "bullets", which is the same as the Yankees. While they pick higher and will have more $ in the pool, it's less draconian than it might have originally been (especially considering the shortened college season / scouting will make hits harder to identify even with a high pick).YNWA_AG said:
The boon will be for JUCO where they can re-enter the draft sooner.redline248 said:
It's going to have a crazy trickle down effect on college recruiting. Those guys aren't gonna play in the minors for only a 20k bonus
that's what the bean counters want. why subsidize minor league teams to develop players when they can have colleges do it for freeredline248 said:
