I get that Hoffman has some advocates due to his high spin rates on his fastball and curve (though the curve has dropped the past two years), but his control is abysmal.I'm just here for the baseball.

Originally posted by chancellor View PostStephenson at least showed some upside in 2019, though he was a tater machine this year. But an 11+K/9 rate and BB/9 around 3 should play pretty decently for a long RP.

Way out 'there'

Mets sign Trevor May. Terms not yet disclosed.
I love May. He hosts a fun YouTube channel, so I like to root for him as a person. He also has the stuff to close, so he should have a lock on holds.
FB velocity and K rate keep rising the last 3 years. Great bullpen piece.Larry David was once being heckled, long before any success. Heckler says "I'm taking my dog over to fuck your mother, weekly." Larry responds "I hate to tell you this, but your dog isn't liking it."

some surprises there - Dahl, Bradley, Santana, ...
A couple other names I noted - Travis Shaw & Jose Urena
Also, Dodgers get Corey Knebel for PTBNL or cash ... pretty sure he'll now return to the 2017 version ...It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.

Lance Lynn to the White Sox for decent prospect RHP Dane Dunning + LHP Avery Weems
edit: didn't realize that Dunning had several ML starts this year down the stretchIt certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.
