The Nat's will be looking to trade him if they have any sense. He's 23 years old. The Yankees should really empty the farm system for this guy. The only teams that can really afford him are the LA's the NY's(Mets are out though, no way the Nat's trade him in the division) BOS, and maybe SEA. Start with Volpe and Dominguez then keep adding from there. As a Nats fan I can say this is incredibly expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always trade prospects for 23 year old monsters who are already top 3 at their position in the pros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JujuFish Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 Anyone watching the Home Run Derby? I haven't watched it in years, but the Guardians have a guy in it, and also I'm curious to see if Pete Alonso can pull off the three-peat.

mjd1001 Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 Watched the Formula 1 race from France today. I am AMAZED at how many people are saying Ferrari messed up by having Sainz pit at the end. Their execuation (how they communicated it to him) was awful, but it was the right move for sure: -If he stayed out, his tires were shot. There were blisters all over and the falloff the rest of the race may have been dramatic AND possibly a crash risk. If anyone has seen a race where drivers push their tires past where they were, for another 10 laps or so, he would have likely held on to finish 5th (considering his 5 second penalty). -He pitted for fresh tires, and he finished 5th. Had there been a full course safety car and everyone in front of him pits, he starting first with the best car and pretty good tires. with it being hard to pass he might win. IF there was a safety car and no one in front of him pits, he pulls right up to the back of the top 5 with a better car and WAY better tires and he passes at least a couple of them if not all of them and finishes better than 5th, maybe 1st or 2nd. Again, they didn't communicate well with him and they seemed disorganized. But pitting him and not keeping him out was the correct call, not even close.

Again, they didn't communicate well with him and they seemed disorganized. But pitting him and not keeping him out was the correct call, not even close. Agreed. Terrible communication. They had plenty of data on the medium tires from Leclerc. I don't know the metrics but it seems like Sainz might have been on his mediums for as long as Leclerc had been on his before he lost the car. If you also add the 5 second penalty Sainz picked up for his unsafe release it only compounds the problem. He was lucky to only get 5 for that. The mix up in communication, the 5 second penalty, and then the VSC all contributed to the end result. Also curious about this whole Perez VSC communication blunder where he was supposedly informed that the VSC was ending on Turn 9 and he sped up then which explained why there was suddenly a big gap between him an Russell. Then he was informed Turn 12 but he was in the wrong spot on the track having had to slow down to maintain his 40% delta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JujuFish Posted August 21, 2022 Report Share Posted August 21, 2022 This is supposed to be a rebuilding year for Cleveland, but by virtue of being in perhaps the worst division of baseball, they have a slight division lead.

Thorny Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 It’s kinda hilarious how far the Yankees have fallen. Earlier all we heard about is how almost all teams that start w/ the record they did end up winning the World’s Series. Could still happen but they are 5th overall in baseball right now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
