Maybe I should've made this 2019. I'll leave that up to the mods.

 

[Teagz]

[Phil The Thrill]

hurts more than the world series

Fuck them. Why can't they find their own guy

So we've lost AA, zaidi, Kapler.

Our hitting coach left (our assistant hitting coach left last year for Boston btw)
Our third base coach who was in charge of shifts left to manage Texas

Our roving minor league instructor left to Philly and he probably would've been promoted with our 3B leaving anyways

Who's next. JFC

God forbid a guy get a better job for more money somewhere else right. What a scumbag

 

[snipezo]

I mean the Dodgers are still in good hands with Friedman as your pres.

Dodgers did the right thing

I love farhan

Just really wish it wasnt a division rival lol

 

[Mexi]

They really gave JD Martinez the silver slugger as both a OF and a DH lmfao

249 AB's as an outfielder
400 AB's as a DH

Dumb as fuck, im sorry

Poor Khris Davis lol

 

[Phil The Thrill]

Yeah thats stupid af. Even if he was the best at both, have a little variety.

Davis shoulda got one without a doubt.

I know you don't watch football, but the NFL did the same thing a few years ago when a guy (Khalil Mack) made the all-pro team at Linebacker and Defensive End.

Post 2018 farm system rankings: https://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/post-2018-farm-system-rankings/
 
 
The Tigers have a top 10 farm system. I never thought I'd see the day.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

So the Orioles' farm still sucks? I can't tell how to read that, but I'm assuming so

Yeah that's what it looks like. Y'all are just starting the rebuild though so it should get better.
 
 
It's funny to see the Red Sox so low after they had been consistently rolling over the farm system for years. They've been completely Dombrowski'd.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

The Orioles have very few pieces left to trade worth anything at this point haha. They need to strike gold with their new GM hiring.
 
Hopefully it's somebody in the Dodgers organization to piss off Mexi

Lolll yeah we havent had anyone exciting enter the farm in a bit. Maybe Groome, who knows.

Seattle mortgaged their future to try to win last season.  They are trying to rebuild now with trades for major leaguers -- Zunnino is the first out the door.
