    Ubaldo Jimenez Signs a 4-Year/$50M Deal With the Orioles

    I agree. If Scott Feldman is getting $10 mil per over 4 years, I'm happy with the O's paying $12.5 per over 4 years to Ubaldo. Not overly excited about the signing but we did need somebody and I feel Ubaldo was the best arm left on the market.

    Tampa Bay Rays and their recent draft woes......What are they doing?

    A lot of it has to do with money; they simply do not have millions and millions to pony up for their picks. Although they did drop the ball big time with Beckham. Speaking of the 2008 draft, how someone like Craig Kimbrel was left until the 3rd round boggles my mind.

    With what I like to call "Prospect Season" almost over, who have you loaded up on?

    I was wondering if anyone would be smart enough to load up on him. Kudos to you. Wish I had the money to do it.

    Yasiel Puig MLB Network's top RF in the game today

    I believe they put Allen Craig in the list b/c he, like Braun is projected to play RF and I believe his amazing clutch hitting last year with RISP put him in the middle of the pact. Not that I agree with his placement, but at least is makes sense to some people unlike Puig at 1.

    200 HITS

    If I was putting money on anyone to get hit 200 hits, the only two I would put money on are Trout or Machado (if he's back by Opening Day). And Trout may have too much power to do it, so he'll be pitched around. There are dozens of others that could do it of course, I just wouldn't put money on...

    Russell Wilson 2014 bowman rangers card

    I'm surprised we haven't seen Brady in an Expos uni. Come to think of it, I'm surprised Topps hasn't released a set with football players who were drafted in the MLB in their respective unis.

    Yasiel Puig MLB Network's top RF in the game today

    I don't really think too much about the "shredders" list usually but this is just an absolute joke. Here is the list: Yasiel Puig – Los Angeles Dodgers Ryan Braun – Milwaukee Brewers Jose Bautista – Toronto Blue Jays Giancarlo Stanton – Miami Marlins Allen Craig – St. Louis Cardinals Carlos...

    Which statistic is more valuable in baseball, batting average or on-base percentage

    It's a more difficult question than OBP hard-ons come to believe. I voted for OBP and overall, I believe it to be true. But I believe the deciding factor here is speed and contact ability. It's why Ichiro will be in the HOF. He could have a swinging bunt in-between the pitcher and the catcher...

    200 HITS

    don't take it personally ;) - but pure homerism. that's like me saying that Chris Davis has an off year next year if no one in the MLB hit 50 HR :)

    If you could go back in time to any game, what game would it be?

    Also if you ask this question in 25 years, people will say game 6 of the 2011 World Series.

    If you could go back in time to any game, what game would it be?

    Extremely biased opinion here and I know that some already were AT this game, but Sept 6, 1995 for me. Cal Ripken's 2131st game. I was at 2129. He hit the first home run of three consecutive games. It was magical. I can't even fathom what 2131 was like. All In Cards?

    Clayton Kershaw 7 yr 215 MM extension

    Agreed. He could win the next 7 Cy Youngs and not be undervalued. Here's how I look at it. Scott Feldman - freaking Scott Feldman - is being paid $10 million a year for 3 years by the Astros. In that comparison to Kershaw, yes, it makes sense to pay Kershaw $30 million a year b/c Kershaw is THAT...

    Clayton Kershaw 7 yr 215 MM extension

    Now come on, I know you like to defend ARod, but you can't leave him out too.

    Clayton Kershaw 7 yr 215 MM extension

    Don't worry the Dodgers are quickly becoming the NL West Yankees...over $200 payroll and not getting to the World Series, sometimes not even the playoffs.

    A-Rod Suspended 162 Games

    It could be viewed as hearsay, but tomorrow on 60 Minutes, Bosch will be on and he claims that he personally injected ARod with HGH many times b/c ARod is scared of needles.
