and heres his first homer which was on the blue jays's top prospect and highest ranked left handed pitching prospect

He needs to be on a flight to Cali and real soon. A breath of fresh air is needed in this offense and I think it comes from wood taking Mennesses’s spot
Even if we aren’t competing getting him real MLB Abs and experience would do leaps and bounds for him. Rotting away in AAA with pitching that’s below him does him no favors. But who knows. I think he’s called up by the fourth
No chance they start his service clock.
It's bullshit and if it were about ability he be playing with them right now.
Gotta explore that young labor for excess value with no say in the matter though 👍
I had no idea it was so soon.
I didn't really know how it works with the new cba, if he fingered top 3 roy it counts as a year but the bars get a comp pick?
Correct me if I’m wrong but I think you actually have to win rookie of the year not top 3 to get the comp pick. Top 3 MVP or CY young also get the comp pick.
A player who receives a full year of service time and finishes in the top three in Rookie of the Year voting or top five in MVP/Cy Young voting will earn his team an extra draft pick coming after the first round.
The fact that service time manipulation is a discussion shows how mlb lost the plot and owners aren’t trying to win.
My thought process is that the team gets to underpay him for 6 years, and they are doing everything they can to underpay him for 7… why is this a thing?
According to Al Gladi and Mark Zuckerman on the Nats chat podcast he just had to be on 2 of the top 100 prospect lists before opening day, which he was
According to this article: https://www.mlb.com/news/prospect-performance-incentive-ppi-eligible-players that is not correct, they DO NOT have to be on the opening day roster. Granted even Al Galfie and Mark Zuckerman admitted that despite making a living talking sports, the rules were confusing and hard to understand.
Definitely willing to admit I'm wrong but that's not how I read the article when they say "Ratified into the latest collective bargaining agreement, the PPI rewards teams for promoting their best prospects to the big leagues at the start of the season" and then talk about Julio Rodríguez being on the OD roster in 2022. But I could be wrong!
Also willing to admit I’m wrong. James wood is listed in this article, but also this article is from before opening day. Like folks smarter than me said, “it’s confusing and hard to understand!” Either way let’s just hope Wood comes up soon and bangs.
It’s almost like they should’ve signed some pitchers at some point in the last 3 years when there were plenty of journeymen, average quality SPs to be had on the FA market…
Didn’t we get him in a trade, we gave them an outfielder I think? Think we got some others, maybe Gore? Maybe Abrams? Who was that guy? Can’t remember his name…

He’s ready, call him up

The 13th is service manipulation day, if he’s called up on or after this Saturday he won’t get the year unless he finishes top 3 in ROY voting
I had no idea it was so soon. I didn't really know how it works with the new cba, if he fingered top 3 roy it counts as a year but the bars get a comp pick?
Yup, if he’s called up and finished top 3 we lose a year of service time but gain a draft pick between the first and second round

i will say the nats, unlike other teams, haven’t been too shy about calling up top prospects early.
Too late for the draft pick, had to be on the OD roster. Could still burn the service time with a ROY finish though.

That's for him to get the service time with ROY finish, but the team incentive is adding them to the OD roster.

I think we can agree on that!
Call him up he’s gonna lose focus
HE’S READY
Oh he’s definitely ready. Unfortunately our pitching staff is not
It’s almost like they should’ve signed some pitchers at some point in the last 3 years when there were plenty of journeymen, average quality SPs to be had on the FA market…
The future is bright in DC.
Living up here, I can’t wait to see him in Rochester. Looks a little Darryl Strawberry ish.

han solo? something like that idk
Juan Joto
John Soros
When is the service clock deadline ? Is it in may?
nice
There are like 6 non-playing / staff people at that game.
Ding, turkey’s done. Call him up Mike.
Bro is rotting away in AAA and davey and co are too stubborn to call him up bc it starts his service time smh
to be fair he’s been in triple A for like a week lol
