20th isn't bad for this market TBH. There were years and years that we were 30th or 29th.
These are kind of skewed though because places like Toronto and Oakland really care about Covid and places like Atlanta, Texas, Houston don't give a shit.
As a whole though, it looks like baseball is really struggling. If it isn't the 4th most popular sport in the USA already, it will be very, very soon. [Reply]
Serious logjam at catcher there. The million dollar question is will they bring some of these guys up in September, or leave them all there and get the experience of being in a playoff race together like they did with Hosmer/Moose/etc. Omaha is in 1st place in their division. [Reply]
I feel like they've got to be planning a move of some kind. Either Viloria or Rivero traded, or Gallagher traded, or something. Melendez HAS to be slated for every day AB - but where? [Reply]
Stuff+ (which factors in velocity, movement, spin rate, and release distance from the plate, among other things) backs that up. He’s top 20 in baseball.
It’s nasty, nasty stuff. If he can add some consistency you’re looking at a real potential find.
Worst case, I think he ends up as a good late inning guy. He also has cyborg dominance potential in the back end as a medium case, and #2 starter as his best outcome. [Reply]

Do I think he could have been safe? Yeah. But he was called out on the field. Which was a good call too. Not what replay is for(or has become) which is to over turn obvious mistakes. This wasn't one.
