    ASU NFL Prospects

    Sutton will be awful in the metrics, and will dazzle in one-on-ones. He's already done so. His leverage, speed, pursuit and technique has already had scouts furiously scribbling. He's an enigma, but one that will stick because the team that drafts him will find a place for him to make plays...

    D-Backs offer Tanaka six years and $120MM

    The D-Backs are solidly in MLB's middle class to be clear (they're not Kansas City), but the distance between them and LA, NY, Bos and Chicago is the distance between ... well, the middle class and the ultra wealthy. They will never out-bid one of those four teams if both teams have the same...

    D-Backs Done Looking at Free Agent Pitchers

    I know Gallardo had an amazing 2011. Cahill had an amazing 2010. It's not clear to me why you would want to acquire Gallardo and trade Cahill. They seem to be the same essential pitcher to me at this point, with Gallardo only being marginally better statistically.l

    By my unofficial count, if they land everyone they want, they'll be four over. Pretty sure four greyshirts don't make it to Feb. 2015.

    Would they take both? I haven't paid attention to the numbers this year to know that. I think they're already pitching greyshirts to some of their earlier recruits, so they're obviously counting on closing on some guys they didn't expect to be in on.

    Recruiting

    My understanding is ASU has the opposite opinion: They would prefer Frison over Barrett, primarily because Frison has more versatility. I don't think ASU pushed Barrett for a commitment, so they have some back-tracking to do on that, now.

    Alex Anderson to Texas. I think Kenyon Frison is their best hope left to get some interior beef. He's a good one. YMMV where you hear he's going, but ASU is generally expected to be at the top of that list.

    Mid season report. Suns to playoff. Make a deal for Pau.

    Salary-cap freedom is >>>>> than any big salary the Suns can land right now. There are no Barkleys to be had. Patience, padawan.

    D-Backs offer Tanaka six years and $120MM

    I've never wanted the D-Backs to emulate the Dodgers. I'll be curious to see how they fare in their return to Yankee-type spending. The past 20 years have been very unkind to them as they loaded up on fat and fizzled. I would MUCH prefer the D-Backs emulate whatever it is the Giants keep doing...

    Recruiting

    Had pretty much zero effect. Winning/losing bowl games doesn't matter. Being in them does. Winning gets you in the door of better recruits. Relationship gets the commitment. Losing a bowl game wasn't going to impact the latter.

    Recruiting

    I don't think ASU really wanted Delp. He wants to be a DT and originally went with ASU because ASU was the only school willing to let him start out there. I think ASU changed their minds on that and it's why Delp bailed. It was tepid relationship from the start. ASU has better OGs on there card...

    D-Backs offer Tanaka six years and $120MM

    The problem is if there is no Plan B, you don't get anything. Either front office is delusional or this is just about perception and not actually competing.

    Carl Bradford to enter NFL Draft

    Just like they changed the defense to accommodate Sutton and Bradford, they will change the defense to accommodate available talent. They'll figure a scheme out that will give the defense a chance to make some stops. There will be holes to be sure, but there will be no lack of attention.

    When he got there he was a rising star and had his moments. This year he'd been relegated to first guy off the bench ... still very good, but clearly demoted with his form here and there. He was very upset about it.
