Kluber seems done to me. Had some appearances early last year sitting 89

No he didn't. Lowest average FB in any start was his last one at 90.5 and his average FB last year was 91.6. Yeah it's down, but not so far that he can't still be productive. It's possible he's done, but think taking a chance on him for only $17 million is a pretty good bet - especially when if he bounces back you get another reasonably priced year.

Astros should have grabbed him and banged the drum so loud Chief Wahoo went deaf.

Seems like the race for the #1 pick in 2021 comes down to Detroit, Baltimore, decent gap... maybe Seattle? Maybe KC?

I cannot wait for this season to start. Tigers quest to bag the #1 pick 3 out of 4 years is live and well. Makes it that much sicker that the one year we don’t pick #1, we still got the best player in the draft #RileyGreene

AA did well with the Marlins, but what has he done since then? Legit asking.

GREEAR with the undertitle "enthusiast" is quite appropriate.

Go Tigers! #TANKATHON

He had a good year with Atlanta in 04. But you're right, after leaving the Marlins, he was mostly very mediocre. Finally hung em up after a 5.44 ERA with the Phillies in 07

Is it possible that these higher signings than last year is collusion by the owners, so they have an argument that everything is fine during the new CBA discussions next year?

The Cardinals have started a LHP less than 20 times since 2017. That seems crazy.

Yet the NL West has faced the most lefties the past two seasons by far.

Yankees are the real cheaters.

Quote:

New York converted Ellsbury's seven-year, $153 million contract to non-guaranteed, contending he violated the deal by getting unauthorized medical treatment

Quote:

New York's projected payroll is at the $248 million threshold where the highest luxury tax rate starts, and Ellsbury accounts for roughly $21.9 million of the tax payroll. The Yankees will pay 30% on the amount above $208 million through $228 million, 42% on the next $20 million and 75% on the amount above $248 million. If the Yankees exceed $248 million, their top pick in the 2021 amateur draft would be moved back 10 places.
