Hopefully this is the night that Bregman makes everyone eat crow and makes Espada look like a genius.

Who knows what kind of opportunities might pop up for him this weekend

I don't mind it for now. Bottom of that lineup has potential to be fire.

Who wants to play Guess Bregmans contract next off season…

3/60 with player option. The Abreu special.

(At best)

For now yes. If this does wind up being a lost season though then the only "advantage" to that is getting young guys playing time without worrying about it costing you a playoff spot. When you have Loperfido and Leon, both 25 and happen to be OF, it's tough to do that. I think an analytically driven organization will value Jake more than you might believe. That said, I suspect the org would rather trade Chas. Too much smoke around him and Dusty last year for me to believe he's beloved by the org.

I was just randomly looking at user profiles and noticed that this was your 10,000th post on TexAgs. Congrats on the longevity and loss of productivity over the years.

He will need an OPS above 800 to get anywhere close to that

Does it come with the same kind of buyers remorse?

I don't see how that's even possible given Bregman does have a glove and isn't slow.

At the rate he's going he might get 3/52. First year 18MM with a player option for a second at 17 MM and an option for a third year at 17 MM. After year 1 and 2 the club gets a 2 MM buyout.

Basically what Chapman got.

Jake needs LESS playing time

Well that was suboptimal.

Competition for the coveted 7 hole is going to be fierce.

Garvee hitting .143. He was one of the masses to have a career year at the plate for the arlingtonians last year.

Whoa. They are reporting that the Navasota River will flood over Hwy 6 in Navasota tomorrow. That's insane.

Anybody else notice Kirby very obviously rubbing his fingers/the ball on the base of his glove before every pitch?

At this rate, he's going to end up going the Correa route: 1-3 year with options prove-it deal. No one is going to want to sink big cost without seeing some sort of potential.

Setting his splitter grip

Every pitch? It's either the base of his glove or something on his wrist.

Yes. He starts with that grip every pitch and changes inside his glove if he is throwing something else. He uses the base of his glove to push the ball between his fingers.
