You get stability and power from your lower body. If you have a hip impingement (wouldn't surprise me if it was a torn hip labrum), it's going to affect your ability to swing the bat with any authority because you have to plant , drive, and rotate your hips.

Kroenke might write DeWitt a check to get Scherzer so all the attention goes back to the Cardinals.

From what I've read, (correct me if I'm wrong hamas), Hamels has 4 years guaranteed @ $23million per, and an option for a 5th year for $24 million, which to me seems like a good bargain in today's market.

It's 4/90 + the fifth year, which is $24MM, and he might hit, so it's either 5/114, 5/108, or 4/96.

So the most would be $114 million. In today's market that's not some numbers that cause you to flee in horror.

Is everyone happy out in LA with the trade and helping clear out the logjam in your outfield?

I think alot of Fans dont understand why Friedman made the moves he did, but people that are actually knowledgable know. FIrst off, we sucked bad with RISP. This should help. WE have players that put the ball in play and not swing for the fences all the time. Rollins is just a stop Gap until Guerrero and Seager are ready to take over. I dont know where they are going to put them dudes exactly, but Seager is SS/3rd and Guerrero is 2B/SS. THey want to promote from withing the Minor leagues and people gotta go in order for this to happen! Cant keep the Kids in the minor forever, they have to come up.. IM still worried about the Bullpen a tad. We might get to see the 18 year old pitcher, he should be 19 after the ASB, last year he pitched 17/18 years old and his era was like 1.10 or something stupid. He's just dominating. If he continues to do that, ya gotta bring him up like they Did Kershaw, he came up right after he turned 20. |

Just saw this one
Ken Rosenthal predicts James Shield will sign with the Cardinals on MLB Network just now. That would be interesting.

Yeah, screw that. Either get a top 5 pitcher or just gamble that our current pitchers health will hold up all season. We have a one pitcher cushion that can go down. I'd rather roll with that than spend $100-$125 million on Shields.
I like the Hamels deal. He's at the peak of his game. You don't have to worry about resigning. Pull the trigger. We have 2 years. GIT-R-DONE! We start to rebuild/reload in 2017. I've read many reports on Kaminsky and Reyes that they are top of the rotation starters. They should be in the big show by 2017.

Lance Lynn signs for 3 years/$22 Million. Arb years buy out. I thought when a club buys out the arb years they usually get another year or two?
Bourjas and Cruz sign one year deals too. Why can't we find a better backup than Cruz?
