Has anybody mentioned the fact that Melancon doesn't do well in big markets. Remember his disaster with Boston anyone



his performance had nothing to do with being in a big market. He's started throwing his cutter more with the Pirates and that is when he became nearly unhittable

Indians better hope Zimmer and Bobby Bradley are the real deal. For a team that lacks good young(and veteran) positional players, they sure are trading a lot of them.

Tribe vs Cubs WS would be incredible...but it'll probably be something like Giants vs Blue Jays and the ratings will absolutely tank.

Cubs were a mystery team in on Lucroy per Heyman.

There are some similarities between Trout and Frazier in terms of power and explosiveness, but Trout is considerably bigger and Frazier still hasn't proven definitively that he can hit breaking stuff.

Naquin's play in Cleveland this season really was what gave them the flexibility to make this move. Having Miller inked thru 2018 helps as well.

The Cardinals announced that they have acquired left-handed reliever Zach Duke from the White Sox in exchange for minor league outfielder Charlie Tilson.

Nah, just didn't see it on the previous page.


Time for the Yankees to deal Beltran to the Astros or Rangers.

Can someone with more baseball contract knowledge tell me how/why a player gets specific teams listed in a no-trade clause?
