    Finally the mariners can point to something else beyond their own rank incompetence as to the reason they never do anything in the west.

    I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.

    Someone should tell the Rangers that they've been stealing the wrong signs.

    Nolan Ryan abruptly resigns from the Astros front office a few weeks before this story breaks. What team did Ryan last work for? That's right, the Rangers. Both of these teams are in Texas, which is located in America. You know what else is located in America? That's right, the Milwaukee Brewers!

    The evidence is indisputable.

    There's video demonstrating the Astros doing their trash can thing against the 67-95 White Sox in a meaningless regular season game with no playoff implications.

    The M's are destined to not even appear in a WS until the rest of the league has won within the last 30 years.

    this is an easily solvable one

    and though I think there are certain technology overreaches in baseball, I don't think the solution for sign stealing is too terribly controversial

    wireless haptic transceiver between the fielders, encrypted signal. catcher keeps it inside his glove, tap tap tap, everyone fielding feels it. no way to see it with cameras.

    Can't be in the glove, too much impact, it'd be broken a lot. I don't have a good solution for location on the catcher though.

    i was thinking in the lip of the catchers glove, palm side

    so if the gloves is on the left hand, they reach in with their right hand to tap it

    if it can break there, then their wrist is broken too

    Apparently in the 2017 WS when it was too loud for the trash can, the Astros were using a live feed and relaying signs to the bullpen catcher by wireless earpiece who signalled fastball or offspeed by putting his hands over his head on the fence or not.

    Jose Abreu accepts 1 year qualifying offer from the White Sox.

    Word is Odorizzi is strongly considering it because he thinks his market will be better next year. I'm not sure I agree, but I'm not sure I disagree either.

    What's the 1B/DH market look like for 2020?

    I think it was a mistake. He pitched his best in the first half of last year then came back down to earth

    I understand betting on yourself but I don't think he will look as good after next season.

    I understand betting on yourself but I don't think he will look as good after next season.

    Bauer, Ray, Paxton, Tanaka, Arrieta, Stroman, Quintana are the FA pitchers next year.

    It's less top heavy than this year where Odorizzi would a budget choice for teams that can't go for Cole or Strasburg, but that's a lot of pitchers similar to Odorizzi flooding the market. On the other hand though, Odorizzi won't have a draft pick attached to him next year which could help his value if he can play well.

    It was a tough spot and I could see it going either way.

    Bellinger and Trout win MVP.

    Yelich should have had it but the injury messed up his chances.

    They should just award it to Trout at the beginning of every season.

    Nope. Just have to meet the service time requirements.
