bp's capsule on didi gregorius:

So good on defense that he could teach a class on it, Gregorius failed to crack league average on offense once again. While his glovework is unquestioned, his inability to contribute on offense is why he opened the season No. 2 on Arizona’s shortstop depth chart. You have to respect how gifted he is around the bag, and his ability to do the jump throw like he’s shooting baskets. Those traits will keep him in the game for a long time, but unless or until he can be within shouting distance of “tolerable” on offense, he should be a backup. Not a “my way or the highway” type player, Gregorius should continue to progress under the tutelage of New York’s coaching staff. He will work well as a defense-minded bench player who is a bit handicapped in the batter’s box.

Here's what every team spent on international amateurs in 2014. Yankees spent more than the bottom 10 teams combined: http://www.baseballamerica.com/international/2014-international-spending-team

mookieproof, Tuesday, 31 March 2015 17:03 (ten years ago)

I take that spending international amateurs isn't a good bet, then.

Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 31 March 2015 19:07 (ten years ago)

seems like a very good bet, actually. for half a-rod's salary, they signed a staggering 10 out of the top 30 (and four of the top 10!) international players available for the 2014-2015 signing period.

they are wildly outspending everyone else on the margins -- young international free agents and quad-a players -- and while it can't help them overcome years of expensive old ppl at the mlb level, it seems like a pretty savvy long-term plan.

Full statement from CC Sabathia:

“Today I am checking myself into an alcohol rehabilitation center to receive the professional care and assistance needed to treat my disease.

“I love baseball and I love my teammates like brothers, and I am also fully aware that I am leaving at a time when we should all be coming together for one last push toward the World Series. It hurts me deeply to do this now, but I owe it to myself and to my family to get myself right. I want to take control of my disease, and I want to be a better man, father and player.

“I want to thank the New York Yankees organization for their encouragement and understanding. Their support gives me great strength and has allowed me to move forward with this decision with a clear mind.

“As difficult as this decision is to share publicly, I don’t want to run and hide. But for now please respect my family’s need for privacy as we work through this challenge together.

“Being an adult means being accountable. Being a baseball player means that others look up to you. I want my kids — and others who may have become fans of mine over the years — to know that I am not too big of a man to ask for help. I want to hold my head up high, have a full heart and be the type of person again that I can be proud of. And that’s exactly what I am going to do.

“I am looking forward to being out on the field with my team next season playing the game that brings me so much happiness.”
