lower seams on the ball

I was going to say that but couldn't remember where I heard it from (probably the boards here so not a good source)

Just busting your chops. She's not that cute, legs look solid though. Aaron Judge is one ugly ass mofo though. And his baseball uniform looks terrible on him for a guy who is super jacked, lol.

He reminds me of Blake Griffin.

Bartman to receive a World Series ring from the Cubbies.

Buckner and Bartman can finally die peacefully.

Cubbies keep making moves, trying to keep up with that mack truck out here in LA.

Yankees getting Gray. Giving up Fowler Mateo and Kapriellan.

Do the Yankees have a good farm? I saw he went for their 1st, 5th, and 10th best prospects.

We value our OOTP prospects much differently than real life.

Yea, the best according to most. Top 3 for sure.

And yes, our league is all kinds of messed up in that aspect.

Cue Kevin saying its all Boston's fault!

They do, which is probably the first time in my lifetime I can say that...

Kapriellan is supposed to be a stud, but is currently rehabbing from TJ, so he's far from a sure thing and probably worth giving up for the more "sure" thing of Gray, despite his own arm trouble.
Mateo is a top SS prospect, but has faded the last year or two. With the addition of Torres from the Chapman deal last year, we don't have as much of a need for him. Still a strong guy though.
Fowler made his debut this year, but immediately went sliding into the wall and broke the shit out of his leg. He's an OF, and we're relatively deep in the OF with Judge/Frazier/Hicks all being younger.

Good haul for the A's, but depth we were able to give up.

I like the deal, as I've liked Gray for a long time. Gives our rotation a little bit of stability that's young and controllable. Gives us a chance to compete this year (though likely not for a WS).

Guys are sooooo far off in our league on prospects. The Cubs gave up a consensus top 5-10 SS prospect in Gleybar Torres AND another good OF prospect for half a year of Chapman with no intention of resigning him.
