    Seems like every big name free agent signing this winter is a HUGE win for the team signing said free agent.

    8 years, awesome.

    That's a lot of coin for an average to sub-average player.

    Next year's FA class is going to be bananas and make us realize how poor this class was in terms of talent.

    There are plenty of pitchers making more than $18M AAV

    That contract is ass for Hosmer, great for the Padres.

    But the market dictates value.

    I'd love to be 28 years old with a World Series ring living out in San Diego for the next 8 (possibly 5) years.

    Edit: fuck that guy though.

    NBC Sports - HardballTalk: Major League Baseball limits mound visits, puts off pitch clock until 2019

    http://mlb.nbcsports.com/2018/02/19/...ck-until-2019/

    Quote:
    The mound visit rule is NOT limited to coach or manager mound visits. It also includes position players, including catchers, visiting the mound to confer about signals and the like. It will not count the normal conversations which take place between plays, such as when a pitcher says something to a fielder as they throw the ball around the horn. It likewise does not include things like a first baseman coming to the mound to clean his spikes off with the pitcher’s gear on the back of the mound. Mound visits to check on injuries will not count either.

    While six visits may seem like a lot, it really isn’t once you realize that a pitching coach may go out two or three times in a close game and that a catcher, especially in close games, may come out to talk about signs and things seemingly countless times. Heck, they could re-name this the Jorge Posada or Gary Sanchez rule.

    Cora has a good point. Catchers should still be able to go out and change up signs if they need to. We all know every player in MLB is trying to steal signs

    So instead of a catcher doing it, now it’ll be the first baseman under the guise of cleaning his spikes off.

    Orlando Cepeda was rushed to the hospital Monday night after a fall.

    https://www.sfgate.com/giants/articl...f-12628738.php

    The late local news on Tuesday night reported that Orlando was still unconscious and not able to breathe on his own. Orlando is 80 years old.
