    And that one was Shake Benzturkey. Had 40 AB in 1982.

    Perhaps, but it at least gives us some statistical sense of the temperature of the Pool.

    The more I read about this deal, though, the more sense it makes for both sides. From Grantland: "And then there�s A-Rod, who signed his first 10-year deal heading into his age-25 season. If A-Rod had signed for 13 years, his contract, like Stanton�s, would have run through his age-37 season. And it would have worked out well: PED suspension aside, Rodriguez was still worth a roster spot in 2013." It's a six year, $107M deal at first, and then there's either an opt-out or a seven-year, $218 "option" after that. Obviously, if he gets hurt or something, the Fish are screwed, but when you put it in those terms, it's not entirely awful, and they do have a ton of financial flexibility on the front end.

    Surprised about Thornton too.

    Neat! I had no idea Terry Leach went all Feliciano back then -- I guess I just assumed he was in Tidewater in between 1982 and 1985.

    Kelly Stinnett.

    That's excellent!

    Yeah, that was too easy.

    It's actually a pretty funny piece, with the fake social media bits and all.

    I read some analysis that talks about the likelihood of signing Heyward that made this make a lot more sense for Atlanta. I hadn't realized he only had one year left before free agency; with a few more years of control over Miller, and a lot of money tied up in Freeman/Simmons/Upton, it's not as lopsided as I originally thought.

    I'm honestly surprised that no writer threw Jeets a 10th place vote in sad, sad tribute.
  21. seawolf17
    That's one of my favorite pieces of baseball arcana.
  22. seawolf17
    Okay, I'm in. Can we put a list in the top post of this thread as to who's who over there?

Dude played a lot of infield in the minors but has been gravitating toward the outfield. Once traded for Rafael Furcal.

Well, considering he'll be 66 years old next season, I wouldn't put too much stock in him making the team.

    If we're going to go big on an established shortstop, it makes infinitely more sense (less money to take on + less prospects to trade + goodwill) to talk with Toronto about Reyes.
