In 2008, @RonShandler asked me to contribute an annual article to The Baseball Forecaster. He likes his writers to be ahead of the curve, and I think we delivered in 2013. Thanks for the shout-out, Ron!

@Ch4Rleys @JoeOrrico99 You really couldn't bench Imanaga. He's been so good all year. But yeah, that was awful.

Wild that some NFBC managers doubted Sasaki’s ‘new’ pitch
Pro tip: when the facts change, your opinion should too. Try leveling up before 2027 🤣

Roki Sasaki's best start as a big leaguer looked like: 7 IP, 4 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 8 K, 91/69. By far the best command of his new four-pitch mix, and the most effective use of his slider. Good progress on mixing the two forkball/splitter options too. Big step forward for Sasaki today.

Jameson Taillon after the game Murakami’s went deep twice on him. ‘“ It’s crazy to think 29 teams passed on him.Taillon said” was it some kind of group think ? He can hit, put the ball in the seats. He has a ton of juice.he controls the strike zone. He does so many things well.”

Sunday FAAB day is upon us again.
My take on this week's top market risers, streamers, SP matchups, and bullpens — up for @BaseballHQ subs: baseballhq.com/articles/skill…

The Red Sox are going to get a mint for Chapman at the deadline. He’s been incredible for two straight seasons now and will be one of the hottest names on the market.

God bless @joeorrico99 for putting me on Kyle Harrison about 5 weeks ago. He's the savior of my staff.
Corbin@corbin_young21
Milwaukee Brewers' starting pitcher Kyle Harrison threw five scoreless innings against the Padres, allowing five hits, zero walks, and seven strikeouts. Harrison had a 17.2% swinging-strike rate and a 34% ball rate on Thursday. 👉The Padres stacked right-handed hitters (88%) against Harrison. He consistently threw four-seamers, slurves, and changeups against righties on Thursday. Harrison had the four-seamer cooking by generating a 21% swinging-strike rate. The four-seamer added 1 mph of velocity on Thursday, with very little fluctuation in the movement profile, as a heater he throws in the upper parts of the zone. 🪫Harrison located his slurve and changeup low in the zone to pair well with his four-seamers up in the zone. Interestingly, Harrison's changeup (+4) and slurve (+2) added 2 or more inches of downward movement, meaning they could be pitches to elicit whiffs. He has three pitches with a double-digit swinging-strike rate in 2026, including his four-seam (16.5%), curveball (11.5%), and changeup (10.7%). Harrison has shown high-end command (112 Location+) and above-average stuff, with an overall 112 Stuff+.

@TheBigHurtHQ Has to be out for the season, wouldn't you guess?

@BaseballStringr Brutal year for pitchers. I’ve lost Skubal, Fried, Boyd & Abel(who I picked up off waivers). Also had Suarez & Ryan leave there starts two weeks ago & missed time.
English
I drafted Max Fried, Tyler Glasgow, Ryan Pepiot, Shota Imanaga and Cody Ponce, and picked up Robby Snelling as a free agent. Imanaga is the only one left standing, and it's just May 14th.

@notgaetti @baseball_ref @Stathead @WillClark22 @SFGiants @RodCarew_29 @OfficialMLBRFC Is Stan Musiel the greatest player of all time?

You've probably heard of WAR, but you might not be familiar with the 4 separate components that go into calculating it, which cover batting, baserunning, double play avoidance, and fielding, respectively.
Only FOUR players in MLB history top Will Clark in *all four* of those categories. It sounds crazy, but it's true: every player that ever lived besides Stan Musial, Mel Ott, Rod Carew, and Arky Vaughan –– four easy HOF'ers, by the way –– trails Clark in at least one of Rbat, Rbaser, Rdp, or Rfield.
(For example, Mays & Aaron both had negative value in the double play avoidance category; Ruth & Gehrig both had negative baserunning value; Bonds was elite at everything, but his 6 Rdp are still fewer than Clark's 16.)
Here's a fun game to play: look up your favorite "oh come on, surely he was better than Will Clark!" guy and discover that you were actually wrong to some extent.

For your catching FAAB. Today’s trade makes that even easier.

@RobSilver I had him for 2 weeks but dropped him whem Rooker came off the DL. Kicking myself now.

Brent Rooker got hurt April 9th.
Since April 10th, Carlos Cortes has the best batting average in baseball (.370), is 12th in wRC+ (181) with less than a 10% K%.
I’m sorta buying it?

@HyeseongKimMuse Rojas will be a ML manager one day.

MIGUEL ROJAS: “We have Hyeseong Kim playing shortstop almost every day for us. I feel like he has the potential to play short. If I can make him better before I go, and before I start the next chapter of my career, that’s going to be one goal of mine.” 🥺💙
