In Baseball news, Steven Wright got busted for PED's. A Knuckleball pitcher getting popped is as good as a punter in the NFL getting nailed. |

We could try teaching..... actual hitting again instead of launch angles, cattle steriods and pulling the ball. It's not illegal to be Craig Council or Ichiro. Or is it now? |

Why learn about launch angles and pulling the ball to try to turn into the next Jose Bautista, Max Muncy, Josh Donaldson, or JD Martinez when you can learn how REAL hitters hit and be the next Craig Counsell? |

If a guy can’t figure out how to hit to half of the field, he has no one to blame but himself. |

In the current market, I have to imagine it would be higher than anything we've seen so far. In the past four seasons: ---Machado has had an average WAR of 5.8 (good for $300m over 10 years) ---Harper has had an average WAR of 4.4 (good for $330m over 13 years) In his last four seasons in Seattle, Griffey had an average WAR of 7.6. However, he was 29 when he was traded over (was it a sign-and-trade? I can't remember), whereas Harper and Machado are both 26. Still, I think Griffey today would be looking at 8-10 years, $35m per year, easy. Of course, they there's Trout. He's averaged a 9.2 WAR over the past four years and is 27. If the Angels were looking to offer him a market-value extension, it'd have to be more than $350m for 10, I think. Closer to $400m. There are rumors out there that the Angels might offer him a $350m extension, and I say he'd be crazy to take it. Boy did I under-value him: |

Awesome for Mike Trout, really disappointing for those of us on the East Coast who hope to see him play ever. 430 million! |
