Edgy MD

I feel like I know the tall one who switches between the long, red evening gown and the white trousers and sleeveless blouse. Has she been around the office?

Are the models all notable personages or are they mostly working stiffs doing their thing for scale?

I enjoy the the box- and landscape-aligned versions of the cover. Amazing that Grimace was busy but Ingrid Bergman is always free.

While there have been two Rodolfos in MLB history, there have been zero Patricios and zero Trinidads, so this has to be looked at as a lost opportunity. As a return to spring training is as good a time as any to consider it a new year, we are going to stop including free agents who have been job-hunting since the end of 2024 and over the winter, making these two the only free agents crowding up our roster thread. We will continue to update if we land any news of free agents from 2024 (or before!) finding a new employer.

The Mets may or may not want to go shopping to replace Frankie Montas, but either way, it is kind of interesting to see José Quintana unemployed after his pretty impeccable last half dozen or so starts to 2024, plus two more terrific performances in the post-season before the universe finally caught up with him in his last start on a week's rest vs. the Dodgers. Clearly more confounding is José Iglesias still being out there after hitting (is this correct?) .337 over 85 games last year. While the Mets clearly were shy about overpaying for what would likely be a fallback year, and have plenty of infielders to look at, surely just getting a part of that performance is attractive to somebody, but I guess his agent went through the winter asking for multiple years, and instead is looking at quite possibly not getting a big-league deal at all. Again. Other 2024 contributors still by the phone include Jake Diekman, Phil Maton, Adam Ottavino, Brooks Raley, and J.D. Martinez — the last of whom got himself a memories thread without actually moving on, and was last seen angling for his next act on the pickleball court. There have got to be a couple of Marlins contracts out there for these guys. Rays? Athletics?

Benjamin Grimm wrote: Well, that didn't take long. I suspect he wouldn't have been that much better than Tylor Megill, who'll likely replace him in the rotation. Or, since they had been lined up to open the season with a six-man rotation, they may well opt not to replace him in the rotation — at least initially — but to instead add a reliever.

Oh, we definitely had it. Like Doug Flynn before him, Rey's consistently low averages somewhat masked the reality that average wasn't really his problem. Rob Neyer among others wrote at length about how much just a few more walks and/or doubles would do for his stock. But he wasn't just a .245 hitter, but a .245 hitter whose game was about 80% singles.

In the final episodes of Cobra Kai, the relaunch of The Sekai Taikai is underway with coverage from none other than Kevin Burkhardt.

Not to defend the deployment of Ordóñez, but let us not believe that WAR has defense figured out yet. Some versions of WAR likely have it better than others, but since their formulae are proprietary to the agencies, it is hard to say which. And many defensive metrics that had once been at the forefront or mainstream of measuring defensive contributions have since been scrap-heaped as less than useless. I do believe that StatCast and other motion-capture data have brought us very far in the last few years in measuring the impact of defensive performances, but until somebody cares to find a way to transfer older game footage into three-dimensional models to apply that technology to older performances, we will struggle to compare historical performances to contemporary ones. Again, that isn't to endorse or dispute any conclusion about the deployment of Ordóñez or any other defense-first player, but I think the question is still open.

Let us go back to the Benny Agbayani punawai.

Let us go back to the Jay Payton well.

It's like a new dawn, isn't it?

My impression of Álvarez' swing is that he swings so hard that he burns himself out. He can't be stopped for a month, but then his arms grow tired and his bat speed and control goes down and he's invisible for two months more.

Before Álex Escobar, there was Alex Ochoa.

I don't know if he'd still be eligible, but Imma guess Hutch Buskey.

Paul Wilson, natch.

You tipped your hand just enough with the two-trade clue. I still might have forgotten him but for that age-discrepancy thing. Passing yourself off as two years younger, borrowing your cousin's birth certificate ... I can see that. Five years older? Sooner or later, somebody is going to see you in the daylight.

Leslie Brea! Leslie Brea! Five years older than his parents say!

That is great.
