All I know is that's the day I'll wish I could lift more than ever. The day I'd give anything for one more workout, one more set, or one more cardio session.

Also lol @ Rizzo go peddle your garbage elsewhere. At least when bacon comes in here selling his garbage he doesnt ask for top $$. Ain't no one paying filet mignon prices for hamburger.

As a Braves fan can’t wait for Scherzer to bomb the Nats hopes this year
It’s overdue, they should have taken advantage all these years he was on point but they choked away those chances too
Just lmao Nats
Mets gonna be a pain in the ass though this year, I know they’re typically the running joke of the MLB but they’ll be battling with ATL and Philly in a 3-way
Mets
Phillies
Braves
At least on paper imo. But they gotta play the games and Braves prospects have potential to flip this if it clicks

Last year you could have had scherzer for a first round but instead you got a former stud kenley putting up a mediocre year
Chits so stupid
And yea lol @ rizzo being ranked in the 30's after a down year in his prime at 29. God a player in the 115 range is so much better than a 30 pick. Makes total sense boyo

Asking for a 7th round pick for a 1st round talent is in no way shape or form asking too much
In fact. Its me taking a considerable loss even with the first round

Yall need to stop bowing down to saalty.
Not everybody has their seasons peddled by lopsided trades
Even if scherzer regresses (as hes been predicting the past 2 years and been completely wrong) all i need to do is pick up an up and comer.
The risk is not that high for a potential elite season considering hes the #1 ranked pitcher (with no signs of regression btw,) youre just hearing clamor from someone that values picks too much
And then whom convinces someone to aid his playoff run

I'll bundle Travis Shaw and Doolittle for a decent pick. Shaw plays 3 IF positions, 32 bangers last year and steals bases occasionally

Good luck on punting saves every year
You can already see the trend dipping
Only 3 closers had more than 40 saves last year; in 2016 6 had 40+ saves. The top 10 had 37+ saves in 2016 compared to 32+ cracking the top 10 in 2018 (4 of the top 10 only had 32 saves!!!!)
It will only get worse as it becomes more dispersed
