Who thinks this? It's hard to predict, but I'd take the Pads of this group to be the next to play int he postseason.

How does Kirby Yates have more trade value than Herrera or Stammen when he's got 29 good innings vs. 154.1 bad innings in his career

He was filthy last year, too, and the way a guy is pitching right now is particularly relevant for relievers in this day and age. Most importantly, 2 more years of control.

how can the Rockies right the ship? bullpen is HORRIBLE, starting pitching not much better
Jeffrey Todd

Hope for improvement. Not much else they can do right now.

Would the M's really want to try out Cano at a new position that far into a season if they are still in WC contention?  Seems risky.

A second baseman should be able to play first base pretty easily. Nats used Murphy there already.

How often do you think real GMs look at “top 100 prospect” lists? 0% of the time, right? It feels like they are for the fans only
Jeffrey Todd

Zero percent.

But real baseball peoples' assessments do influence the composition of those lists, b/c the prospect folks are talking to them as much or more than they are making their own, in-person assessments.

Gennett couldn't start for a contender.  Man, you really hate the Reds don't you?  Do you look at stats or just throw all Reds under the bus?

Is that really what I said, though? He doesn't hit lefties historically and is still riding an inflated BABIP. I just don't see him as a guy that contenders will target with intentions of playing every day.

I don't hate the Reds, I'm just giving honest assessments. I will acknowledge it if the Reds manage to turn Gennett into a quality, established young starter.
