They have Freeman, who is obviously elite, but everybody else is defensively challenged and probably playing out of position now.

live with fruit posted:You throw out Schwarber's BA like his OBP isn't still good. It's pretty decent, but it does seem like a waste of his true value (the power) to bat him leadoff. They should hit him second, really, he doesn't hit a ton of grounders, so it's not like he's just gonna be hitting into DPs every time. live with fruit posted:Snell is a slow starter and has basically missed all of Spring Training so he'd be best on a team that can get by for the first couple of months while he works it out, which probably isn't the Yankees with Cole out and Rodon still bad.

Cease is younger and I don't think it's hard to argue has a higher ceiling than Montgomery and probably Snell, I don't think it's surprising the Yankees would rather trade for him than sign one of those guys, especially given their tax hit.

If a pitcher hurts their pitching arm, I assume they're out for at least the season and will be pleasantly surprised by anything else. Doesn't matter what the actual injury is.

I mean, ElAttrache said no TJS, that's about as definitive a prognosis as you can get. Again, there isn't really such a thing as "routine" surgery and nobody's gonna do it without a doctor saying it needs to be done.

Snell went to the Giants because apparently the Yankees and Astros stopped at 30m/year. So, they both let him go elsewhere over a million bucks that could have been deferred.

Ippei is not (yet) the target of the federal investigation, he's not going to be arrested immediately upon arrival. I'm sure the feds who are investigating the illegal bookmaking ring will want to interview him now and their scope may expand to include him soon, but that hasn't happened yet. Yeah in these cases don't the actual bettors get plea deals in return for testifying against the actual bookmakers? I doubt the FBI is super-interested in prosecuting random shmoes who thought Uncut Gems was aspirational. EDIT: also if Ippei is still a Japanese citizen there's gotta be almost 0 chance they would extradite him over what is effectively a paperwork violation.
