MLB 2015 - Meet the new boss, same as the old boss!

Re: MLB 2015 - Meet the new boss, same as the old boss!

Exactly and that's basically what they said on fangraphs as well:

Between taking on the rest of Morse’s salary and essentially eating Olivera’s signing bonus, the Dodgers are using roughly $40 million to acquire Wood, Latos, Peraza, and Jim Johnson; the prospects they’re sending away are of minimal consequence, and Paco Rodriguez is out for the year following elbow surgery. To get back two solid major league starters, a quality reliever, and a legitimate prospect in exchange for essentially agreeing to pay Olivera’s signing bonus for the Braves and take on the money left on Morse’s deal is a remarkable bargain for Los Angeles.

Wood alone may very well produce $40 million in value above his salary over his team controlled years. Peraza is from the class of prospects that has been the centerpiece in deals for the best rentals traded so far, so even if they flip him, he’ll bring back something pretty shiny himself. And Latos and Johnson are solid depth pieces for a win-now team, and the Dodgers are getting them for something close to free.

Hahaha Mets.

7-5 Mets, 9th inning, 2 outs. 44 minute rain delay.

SD gets 3 hits in a row after delay (3-R HR) and take the lead.

Please tell me you're joking.

edit: you're not joking, and now there's another rain delay.
 
No, once it's past 4.5 innings it stands at the time it was called. Rule 7.01 (4.10) (c)

But if the visiting team takes the lead and the home team doesn't get a chance to play the bottom half of the inning, a different rule applies.

Aha, it's 4.12(a)(5) - it's a suspended game.

Dustin Ackley to the Yankees according to the internets.

Yea, i just knew it didn't go back to a prior inning. I'd guess they'll finish since it was a day game.

OK, I want some down-to-the-wire deadline drama today, got it? Get busy, GMs.

Although I feel bad asking for more drama after the Gomez-Mets debacle, because that's going to be hard to top. :)

Reports say Red Sox trying to move inmovable players. Sounds like Sandoval who is immovable in more ways than one.
 
Re: MLB 2015 - Meet the new boss, same as the old boss!

Finally a huge move!

Felix Doubront to the A's. ;)

Only a matter of time until the Astros sign for the rights to JJ Watt. He hit 7 out of the park in some BP action.

(Yes, sarcasm font was used above).
