Steve Cohen has ended his pursuit of the New York Mets after the Wilpon family reportedly tried to change the terms at the last minute. Mets fans now stuck with these fools indefinitely.

I think it's a pretty solid hire. I know people will worry the analytics side will suffer, but they need a people person right now. Those players are going to catch tons of shit on the road and maybe some at home, too. Dusty is as solid a choice as any to steer them out of this mess.

If I have to sign up for a whole new website to hear this, you better be funny.

I look forward to this rare opportunity to be in compliance with something. I'm a bad apple, I tell ya!

Settle a bet for me. The Kwang-hyun Kim listed in the database as a FA is also the Kwang-hyun Kim who was signed by St Louis.

We are facing a potential work stoppage in baseball and football in the next two years as the NFL labor agreement ends after the 2020 season. However, there is hope that the NFL will agree to a new labor deal before March as the two sides are closer than ever to an agreement. Baseball certainly see...

I'll simply answer questions about Greg and/or Tom, all things Twins (love the Donaldson signing...at least for 2020), boot hockey, frozen pizzas, and why Mike Zimmer is a terrible coach

Zimmer deserves everything he gets for being a jerk to Kyle Sloter.

KDS 30 minutes after we fill I presume?

Currently in round 19 of a draft that began last Thursday.

This is Fast DC #5, Whoremaster. :lol: I understand that it's easy to get confused because every draft I'm in ends up being a fast draft, but this is officially the fourth one of its kind this year. So are you in or are you just on here to troll The Fast DC Whoremaster? Titmouse Paper Tiger Return ...

The fallout continues. Now three MLB teams are looking for managers and Beltran's people are firing back. Will we see guys like Altuve and Bregman begin to experience ADP drop?

Kind of looks like, "No, no! I've got a piece on."

This is Fast DC #5, Whoremaster.

I'm in a draft right now that is drastically underreporting pick times. We managed a total of 26 picks yesterday, but the longest draft time listed for anyone is 16 minutes and change. That math doesn't work. Some guy who took three hours and 50 minutes on his last pick is somehow averaging eight mi...

I agree with you, Dan. I brought up the Dual Ohtani solution as a compromise if it's easier for scoring purposes. Anything would be preferable to this unnecessarily hamstrung version of a very exciting player.

I realize nothing can be changed about the way we're handling Shohei Ohtani this year since drafts have already happened, but I think the current option of designating him as a pitcher or a hitter each week is less than optimal for this unique talent. Certainly, if he were projected for 600 at bats ...

I knew it wouldn't be easy to find MLB players with numbers in the 90's, but it's fun to do the research. Takahito Nomura was a 5-7, 175-pound, 33-year-old rookie for the 2002 Brewers who appeared in 21 games, threw 13 2/3 innings, walked 18 batters and delivered an 8.56 ERA. He never pitched in th...

It was like Fernandomania all over again when Onelki arrived.

You have to pay a premium for streaky and overrated these days.

A 2-Hour or 1-Hour MEQ would probably appeal to a lot of folks.

As long as free agency drags out now, this would be a welcome change.

An amazing player and such a gentleman.

Congratulations, KC!

Let's do this thing.

Nice to see you're still trailing me around like a puppy a year later. Also nice that you still believe hot-dogging is worse than trying to wreck a guy's career. Reveals a lot about your character.
