Someone is gonna pay Eovaldi a ton of money to be a mediocre pitcher over the next 2-5 years.

And the winner is … Boston! 4/68. I guess we're going to find out which Eovaldi is the real one. If the 2018 version is who he's become, Boston's got a solid rotation for next year. If, if, if …

I mean he doesn't even need to be who he was for us during the 2nd half of the year, although I'd love that. Right now he slots in as our 4th starter, and he's about as good a 4th starter as you could realistically hope for. Also getting him for half the price of Corbin (albeit across 2 less years) is just fine by me. I just hope he doesn't need to go under the knife again. 2 TJs already...

There is no Year ____ version of Eovaldi. There's "Was it Jekyll or Hyde who got out of bed this morning?"

He earned that spot on my all-time Irrational Hatred Yankee team.

Don't you mean World Series Champion Nathan Eovaldi?

4/68 is worth taking a shot on him. Love it.

He has "good stuff".

It's called a championship ring. Thppt.

(Heyman says the Yankees were only willing to do a three-year deal, so there was some interest in driving you and Ratty bonkers.)

Some dude that all of my Jewish friends think is Jewish but I don't think he is just got traded to the cards.

This is terrible:

Free agent infielder Luis Valbuena and former major league infielder Jose Castillo died Thursday in a car crash in Venezuela, where they were playing for a winter league team.

Yeah I know there was some level of interest and even ARod was lobbying for the Yankees to sign him. By all accounts he's a great teammate. I hope he does well against every team but the Yankees.

And did I mention he has good stuff?
