Would you guys prefer an off-season countdown of Astros draft picks or greatest regular season games? The games won't be in any particular order, but will be fun.

May I make a suggestion?

What about a recap of a notable/fun game that coincides to the amount of days left until Opening Day?

For example...If we're 75 days out a recap of a interesting game 75 of a random season. The next day would be a game 74 and so on and so on.

Great idea, although I will wait until it's 100 days until Opening Day because it will certainly take some research.

MLB is tinkering with the pitch clock. When a runner is on they are cutting the clock from 20 sec down to 18.

110% this is all about increasing stolen bases.

And the clock starts when they get the ball and not when they are actually on the mound. We should definitely trade Framber now

He's already curled up in a ball in the corner, completely catatonic. But don't worry. A quick change of shoes and glove and he will be right as rain.

Don't let facts get in the way of a good narrative.

Runners on Base

Player -- ERA -- FIP -- xFIP -- Pitcher Base Advances Prevented
Bielak - 6.02 - 4.84 - 4.71 - (-2)
France - 6.11 - 3.56 - 4.54 - 0
Verlander - 6.58 - 4.22 - 4.76 - 2
Framber - 7.13 - 4.24 - 4.05 - (-2)
Javier - 8.87 - 5.10 - 5.42 - (-7)
Urquidy - 10.08 - 4.30 - 5.54 - (-6)
Brown - 10.14 - 4.52 - 3.38 - (-7)


Javier, Urquidy, and Brown are more likely to be impacted.

I hope it's LA

I'm all for loading up all the talent possible on one team in the NL.

I hope it's LA and they do some $500MM/12 contract with $450MM deferred.

I want everyone in MLB hating them.

Hopefully that prices them out of our Cuban pitcher.

Are these real?

A pitcher warming up for 1 inning must face a batter?

That's absolutely fkn rahtahded

It means if they take the field and warm up in the mound. They must face a batter. You can't wait u til the inning starts to switch him.

Nvm, I read that as warming up in the BP
Ag_07

Oh ok!

Yeah I thought that meant if a reliever gets up in the BP for an inning he has to face someone.

Giving a pitcher the largest contract in history without ever throwing a pitch in the MLB certainly won't blow up in their face
