Rise and Phight: 3/10/2022

More depressing news yesterday, but it seems a bit funny that there isn’t much doom and gloom like there was the last time games were canceled. There seems to be much more of a feeling that this thing will get done; it’s just a matter of when now.

On to the links.

Phillies news:

• Alec Bohm has been a hot topic around here for a while, but here’s another outside perspective on his inability to hit for power.
• More MiLB signings! Huzzah!

MLB news:

• In other baseball news, the Rockies fired their head of the analytics department. This is noteworthy because they hired him six months ago.
• Hmm, another ability for MLB to collect revenue? I thought they were so poor and couldn’t afford things...
• The thorniest issue in the negotiations at this point seems to be the international draft. David Ortiz has voiced his opinion on why MLB needs to get it right.
