Random 2015 Minor League Stuff

Carlos Correa is gonna be fun to watch.

And assuming the rockies are out of it by the deadline, do the rocks trade Tulo and bring up Story?

[33anda3rd]

Why not keep Tulo and move Story to second? Or keep Tulo and more Story to RF? Or move Tulo to RF and play Story at short?

Tulo is so good that if you took just his away split, outside of Coors, and put that over 650 PA, you'd still have the best SS in baseball. I know people love to string along the narrative of Tulo being available in a trade because it's easy (his team sucks) and it's dreamy (we could have Tulo!) but his salary is going $20/20/20/20/14/15(option) over the next several years and he's a 5-win player, which is $35MM/year in today's market. They're not gonna trade Tulo, who is awesome and awesome at a low price.

They might trade CarGo if they can find a sucker willing to take a guy who has only made 300-some PA since the close of 2013 and has hit well under league average in that span when he's been able to play.

Because tulo nets them good players, like pitching, which is what they need.

Tulo is awesome, but he's only awesome for roughly 120 games a year.

When is the last time a face-of-the-franchise player still playing excellent baseball in the middle of a long extension was traded?

[go birds]

would rockies fans even know he's gone though?

i figure they'd just assume he went back on the DL

Okay, that one made me laugh.

Jeff Moore scouts Reyes start, writes very good report.

[lukethedrifter]

care to summarize?

[Jocephus]

yeah you elitist bastard!

(this is a drunk razz)

Syndergaard is coming up. Mets are going to be tough. He shoved it again last night.

Yeah I'll summarize.

Great velocity, his delivery is good til the later part then it's high effort, that's what is contributing to his command issues. Better command on the curve with less late action effort than on the heater with high effort. All in all major #rig.
