Well, to be fair, nobody has any scouting on this Wainwright kid. Give the league a little bit to adjust, then we’ll probably see him come back to earth.

Bobby Witt Jr showed all 5 tools at an elite level and had the game winning hit so I'd rate his debut a C minus probably.

Also Greinke was throwing 87 mph gas all day with some success.

This all happened because the Padres decided to let a guy may his MLB debut in the 9th inning of a 2 run game where he proceeded to walk 3 guys in a row.

What was this about?

Also the Dads losing in the bottom of the ninth to a guy named Seth Beer is very baseball.

This after Yu Darvish had them no-hit til the 6th and was inexplicably pulled on 90 pitches.

I think because of the shortened spring, most pitchers are only getting like 80 pitches for a bit until they can be fully stretched out.

It seems like they are trying to do the right thing here with a shorter term higher AAV deal but they are in a complete no win situation with Judge. If they give in and sign him it's overwhelmingly likely to be a bad contract and if they let him walk they are going to get crucified. Basically every team is signing their younger stars way earlier than the Yankees are.

https://twitter.com/Yankees/status/1512412893626650627

I give this lineup a 7 out of 10. Stanton needs to play OF but at least they didn't bench DJLM. Rizzo shouldn't bat above DJ or Stanton either. The order is weird but it's hard for me to get worked up about that.

They paid him 540,000 in 2017 so they definitely owe him even if there is some “dead” money at the end

That’s the way it works . That’s the way the owners wanted it
