Dan Gould Posted November 5 Report Share Posted November 5 Very glad Wilyer Abreu got a Gold Glove (and as a rookie, no less). His defense was terrific and his hitting more than acceptable, with room for improvement. If he gets packaged for some immediate improvement like a pitcher or RH power hitter, I'll be annoyed, most likely. https://www.mlb.com/redsox/news/wilyer-abreu-wins-2024-gold-glove-award-red-sox Abreu recorded seven Outs Above Average, tied for first in MLB with Brewers outfielders Jackson Chourio and Sal Frelick. Abreu led the Majors in Defensive Runs Saved by a right fielder with 17, and his nine assists tied Hunter Renfroe and Juan Soto for most at the position.

Dan Gould Posted November 8 Report Share Posted November 8 So when I read that Cole opted out of his deal and then the Yankees 'brought him back' I assumed they had rolled over and added a $36 million dollar salary on an extra contract year, per the deal they signed him to five years ago. Now it turns out the Yankees said "fine, you've opted out" and Cole said "but I don't wanna be a free agent" and everything goes on as if he never opted out??? What a crock of shit. You opt out, the contract is null and void. No "I crossed my fingers" bullshit. If he wants to return to the Yankees, new contract, from scratch. This is total bullshit.

It's like one of the old family sitcoms where the kid runs away from home and the parents say, okay, take care, and the kid is back in time for bed that night.

ghost of miles Posted Friday at 07:43 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 07:43 PM (edited) Yawn indeed—he was a landslide unanimous winner, first Yankee to do that since Mickey Mantle after his triple-crown 1956 season. Bobby Witt Jr (who’ll win one himself, sooner rather than later) was a unanimous pick for second place. Ohtani was a unanimous pick as well on the NL side and becomes the twelfth player in MLB to win three times, and only the second to win in each league (preceded by Frank Robinson).

JSngry Posted Saturday at 12:03 AM Author Report Share Posted Saturday at 12:03 AM Yes, yawn. Was anybody expecting ANYBODY else in either league? Too bad they both disappeared for the Series. It must be hard for a non-fan of either/both of these teams to realize how impossible it's been to avoid them both, thanks to MLB'S relentless saturation hype pretty much straight throw from the preseason on. It's like jazz news that's all about Miles and Coltrane 24/7. Obviously they're important and obviously there's a market, but the last time I even thought about listening to Kind Of Blue was...at least a decade ago. I know how it goes. So nothing personal, but yes, yawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
