Oakland's top prospect is a catcher and their current starter, Sean Murphy, is having a pretty good year. (.238/.314/.423 with 12 HR and 41 RBI) From Keith Law's top 60: Shea Langeliers, C, Oakland A's Previous ranking: No. 80, now at 50 Langeliers is a power-over-hit guy who can really catch and throw, enough that he could probably play regularly for Oakland right now if it ends up trading Sean Murphy at some point – and he's quite similar to Murphy in skills and expected production. The best of the players coming back from Atlanta in the Matt Olson trade, Langeliers should be a 20-homer catcher who walks enough to make up for modest batting averages and adds value across the board with his defense. Just sayin'. Later

Down 0-1. We're doomed. Later -
From Jeff Passsan: Three-team trade! Full deal, according to sources. Houston gets: 1B/OF Trey Manicini and RHP Jayden Murray Baltimore gets: RHP Seth Johnson and Chayce McDermott Tampa Bay gets: CF Jose Siri And as for the Montas deal, the MFYs still have their two highly rated shortstop prospects (Volpe and Peraza) to use in other deal(s).

San Diego - even if it is just to keep him from signing with LA. Later

What is an excellent eve? Shows up as "excellent eye" on my monitor. Later

Keith Law just released his Top 60 prospects (Alvarez and Baty are on it) list and so was THIS: 47.Kevin Parada, C, New York Mets Previous ranking: 2022 No. 11 draft pick Parada was, in my opinion, the best overall player in Division I this spring, a catcher who hit .361/.453/.709 while playing for Georgia Tech and facing ACC pitching. But he ended up sliding all the way to the Mets at the 11th pick. He's a bat-first guy, with an excellent eye and a history of hard contact, while his defense behind the plate is fringy at best, from his receiving to his throwing. I don't think his glove will matter if he hits like he's capable of hitting. He's not going to have to move to another position and he should hit for average with solid OBPs and 20-plus homers. Later

Good news. But I read that their third round pick - RHP Brandon Sproat is the only one of their top 7 picks who hasn't signed. That's sad, because everybody deserves to have a little Brandon Sproat in their life. Later

Looks like Buck is loading it up with lefty hitters, so the other team must be starting a righty pitcher. Who is it? Later

Not as long as he's still obsessing about the Mets. From the new ESPN documentary about him (hurl): That Fall Classic obviously captivated the city and saw the rivalry blossom among fans, but Jeter said the Yanks didn't see it that way. Why? Because it was “just the Mets.” “For us, there wasn't a hatred of the Mets,” Jeter said. “How we looked at it, they were just the Mets.” Later in the documentary, when it arrived at the Yankees taking a commanding 3-1 lead in the series before finishing it off in game five, Jeter made the comment again, seemingly taking a break in between the more formal part of the interviews but while the cameras were still rolling. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/mlb/derek-jeter-trolls-mets-during-the-captain-it-was-just-the-mets/ar-AA106odUhttps://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/mlb/derek-jeter-trolls-mets-during-the-captain-it-was-just-the-mets/ar-AA106odU Later

The point was not that the Yanx are a ping-hitting team, it's that last night's game in particular must have been frustrating to watch as a string of weak grounders produced a grand total of One out leading to KCR losing the lead even before Judge's coup de grace. You need to get over your Jeter obsession. Sorry. I obsess. It is what I do. A day without a Derek Jeter insult is like a day without sunshine. He's just one on my list. Later

The ground ball single, the hit that made Derek Jeter famous. The current MFYs are just carrying on a tradition. Later

And MFY fans will calling WFAN bemoaning the fact that they didn't get the pitcher they were entitled to. Snicker. Later

Francisco's BA is barely North of the Interstate, but his second home run last night was a walkoff. Later

The 2022 Active Roster (and eventual transactions)
MFS62 replied to G-Fafif's topic in New York Mets Talk
To make room for Naquin on the 40-man roster, the Mets designated right-handed pitcher R.J. Alvarez for assignment. Later -
If that is all the O's want, that deal is a no-brainer. I'd be sad to see my one-time adoptee Szapucki go, but he needs a fresh start. Later

I found Bill! [FIMG=500]https://mbtn.net/images/broom.jpg[/FIMG] Thank you. I like it that nobody used the word, or referred to a "sweep" until after the game. Ashie just used "brooms" in the thread title and I appreciated that. As you may have figured out by now I'm very superstitious*, and consider using the word sweep before the series is over to be a jinx. When the sports reporters on tv or radio say something like "The Mets are going for the sweep tonight" I cringe in anticipation of a loss. Later * = I don't like to make pre-season predictions, either -

For average, but he still has 11 HR and his body of work is far superior. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/p/perezsa02.shtmlhttps://www.baseball-reference.com/players/p/perezsa02.shtml He's currently on rehab assignment after a stint on the IL at AAA (Jake K'd him twice today) so maybe his injury explains his production this year. He's on a long term contract at big bucks, so maybe KC may be inclined to deal him. Still 32 yrs old, so it might be worth it to kick the tires on a deal. Later

I wonder if Reimer has good hands. * Later * = Old Allstate commercial reference.

If we want to go big, not Soto big but bigger than Wilson Contreras, I wonder what it would take to pry catcher Salvador Pérez rom KC? Later
