Imagine if Alex Cobb and Brad Keller were your favorite team's opening day starter.

He throws flame rondo. That’s why I added him last year. One little tweak and the K’s will pile up

Paddack with another nice outing


4 IP 5 H 1 ER 0 BB 6 K


Be a shame when their best SP isn't on the Opening Day roster.

Joey Boots and Strahm will both be on the opening day roster.

sounds like Strahm will be a bullpen guy based on Green's quotes yesterday

I wouldn't be surprised if he starts there.

I would be a little surprised if he's in the bullpen all season.

Looks like the 3 batter minimum passed as well as expanding rosters to 26 starting next season.

What are the caveats here? I assume a pinch hitter means that a pitching change can be made?

quote:

-- Pitchers will be required to face a minimum of three batters in a game beginning in 2020.

-- There will be a single July 31 trade deadline, starting this season, with teams prohibited from making any type of trade after that date.

-- Mound visits will be reduced from six to five during games beginning this year, and perhaps reduced to four visits in 2020.

-- There will be an All-Star election day starting this summer where fans can determine the starting players in the All-Star Game with 24-hour voting.

-- The Home Run Derby will now pay $1 million to the winning player.

-- Commercial breaks during innings will be shortened by 20 seconds to 2 minutes.

-- Position players will be prohibited from pitching in games that don’t go into extra innings, unless a team is ahead or behind by at least eight runs.

-- Committees will be appointed by the Commissioner’s office and the union to formally discuss the game’s economic concerns. They will study ways to make the free-agent market more active. They will discuss eliminating the incentive for teams from purposely losing to gain top draft picks. They will explore efforts to prevent teams from manipulating service time that delays their top prospects from being called up to the major leagues.

-- And finally, beginning in 2020, all teams will have a 28-man roster in the final month of September, after having a 26-man roster the first five months of the season.


I'm not sure about the pinch hitter situation, but I can get on board with most of these changes specifically the true trade deadline.

This seems like an odd rule to throw in.

I'm convinced that MWG has set up some kind of bot that automatically churns the same players on and off his roster throughout the offseason.

You gotta be calculated with the adds.

The origninal add/drop of coke tucker draws attention to him from all the owners who don’t pay attention. Oh lemme look up this tucker fella. Meanwhile wisey is like frick, now someone else is gonna add this guy. So you gotta add em back before someone else does

Been there before

Yeah, I usually just don't add a dude I really like until Im sure I wont have to drop him.

If Wisey picks him up once, then I just have to wait for him to drop him, then scoop and score.
