Assuming the front office wants to make some in-season improvements, who might be some potential targets for improving the defense, especially at cornerback?

Thanks!

Who do you think the Pirates will select and why? Who would you pick?

In 2010, Strasburg started in AA and was promoted to the majors that same year. Not saying this is the expectation, but just curious as to where you think the best pitching project since Strasburg will start his professional career and how quickly he’ll progress. Super excited for this pick. Thanks.

Title. Generally speaking, I think managers get blamed for a lot of things outside their control. However, these were two objectively poor managerial decisions that were questioned before the catastrophic results occurred. Which decision was worse?

Feel free to include platoons if that’s what your team does on regular basis. Also, is there a difference between what you think is best vs what your team actually does?

Trying to get more familiar with teams’ lineups and strategies with the playoffs about to start.

Title.

Was also wondering if any of them had been rumored to be in an unofficial agreement with a team yet, as it can be quite common for IFA to be linked to certain clubs way before they officially sign.

Haven’t been able to find much from MLB pipeline and other sources.

Hello friar faithful! As a Nats fan I was hoping to get your thoughts on Gore, Abrams, Hassell, Wood, and Sussana and what you see as strengths, weaknesses, and future comps. Who do you think has the highest ceiling? Who least likely to bust?

Since the trade I have been looking at their reports and numbers but wanted to see what you all thought of them, especially guys like Abrams and Gore who you all got to watch day to day in the bigs.

Excited for y’all with Juan and JB, they are amazing players, as no doubt you have seen already. Thanks a bunch, and best of luck this October!

Title. Asked this question last year and some examples were guys like Shane Baz, who ultimately was called up later that year. Examples don’t have to expected to be instant super stars or even starters, but maybe to plug a hole on the roster or just provide some more depth.

If you don’t think your team will call a significant prospect up (ex: Mets and Alvarez), do you agree or disagree?

What prospects should we have an eye on these next few weeks as teams tool up for October?

Inspired by a comment by u/roaringcorgie who noted that, while throwing hard deep into outings is inherently impressive, it’s actually quite rare to see noticeable velo drops as a pitcher progresses deep into a game. Instead, it’s just command that usually falters. Why is this?

Furthermore, it seems common to see guys like Alcantara, Ohtani, Scherzer, and Verlander increase their velocity as they go deeper into games. Perhaps one of my favorite examples is Gerrit Cole’s start against the Astros last season.

I guess what I’m asking for is an explanation/description (mechanical or scientific) of how pitchers actually generate and sustain consistent velocity

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone knew of any mass times in Rome at 8:30 PM (20:30), 9 PM (21:00), or 10 PM (22:00)?

I have been able to find some options online but I know online isn’t always a reliable source. Thanks a bunch!

Also my apologies if this type of post is not allowed.

Edit:

Thank you all a bunch. Found a mass that works.
