    MLB Gamethread: April 3rd-April 9th

    Man, that 2-5 in the Jays lineup is so good. Any one of those guys could be an All Star any given year. And if Colabello proves last year wasn't a flash in the pan, this lineup should be unreal. It's too bad Michael Saunders never lived up to his potential. Still time to be a late bloomer and...

    A.J. Pollock To Undergo Surgery For Fractured Right Elbow

    My Road the the Show character is stuck behind Pollock in AAA. Call him up, meat! ;)

    Padres Scouting Panda

    Sandoval is only 29. If he took care of himself, he could just be entering his prime.

    Top studs and duds: The best and worst No. 1 picks in MLB draft history

    Griffey single-handedly turned Seattle into a baseball town. Amazing talent, right attitude, actually had fun playing the game. He's the top on my list.

    Prospect to watch for your team this season?

    I've got a real sleeper in the Mets' Dominic Smith. Maybe it's because I hate Duda, but Smith was the top pick in 2013 at 18 years old, and has progressed every year since. He slugged Hi-A ball last year, and got some good at bats in at Spring Training. He's still only 21 years old, and I'd keep...

    Travis Shaw beats Panda

    YES! This is the only thing I don't like about these moves. Castillo and Panda just took a huge value hit, and it almost turns into a salary dump situation. I'm ok with it if it helps them win ballgames though. Do the Sox have a better chance at winning without these two in the lineup? Or are...

    Travis Shaw beats Panda

    And it's not like Shaw is a spring chicken. He's 25 years old and has given every indication that he's ready. Something's gotta break with Panda – hopefully a trade. We'll see...

    Rusney

    Yesterday, Sox Manager John Farrell announced that Brock Holt will platoon in left field with Chris Young. With Mookie Betts and Jackie Bradley, Jr. also expected to get playing time, where do you think that leaves Castillo? Is he too expensive to leave on the bench or send to Pawtucket? Is...

    Padres Scouting Panda

    FWIW, Shields' contract isn't much nicer... http://www.spotrac.com/mlb/san-diego-padres/james-shields/ That said, I'd take Shields' production over Panda's. Just hope last year was an aberration. 3.91 ERA in the league's most forgiving park isn't anything to write home about.

    1st Overall Pick

    While Mariota doesn't need as much time as most QB, I'm going with Tunsil. You invested in a QB last year, now protect him. Plus, we all saw what DeMarco did with a great o-line in Dallas vs what he did in Philly. Success starts on the o and d lines.

    Best QB in 2016 Draft Class?

    Went with Goff, but agree I'm not sold on any of them. Really a toss up... I will say, I think Hackenberg is better than we saw him be at PSU. With real talent around him and a good coach, I like him. Good size, good arm... great pedigree.
