"Am I the best at this point in time? No. But am I more than or better than some of the offers I've been given? Absolutely." ''To this point it[market value] hasn't been matched. It's been less than what it should be. And this is out of principle, what's going on right now. I can't speak for other players. It's a principle for me. I'm not asking for the world.'' -Dallas Keuchel, Article from May 7, 2019

“And that’s a base hit through the vacated part of the shift!”

Good luck to him. I hope him and McCann find success in ATL. Just not more than the Astros.

Yeah, but even if Keuchel completely flops for them they only ruined one partial year's worth of salary. And in the NL, where he gets 2-3 automatic outs, he could put up some pretty good numbers and improve his stock for next offseason. He'll still have to adjust his view of what he thinks he is worth though.

IMO, he wil be a .500 pitcher, and chop chop land is not going to like it.

For the record, I have nothing against Keuchel. I just think it's funny that he deemed his market value at X, when the actual market deemed it at Y.

Money could have been used more wisely. I was once a big Keuchel fan but grew tired of him getting us down by 3-4 runs after one inning.

They didn't spend a ton of money and, on paper, improved their rotation with a guy one year removed from being an all-star.

I wish Keuchel the best, but I don't know how well a finesse pitcher is going to work in today's game. He benefited greatly from a wide zone and was done as soon as they made a cumulative decision to tighten the zone. Of course, they had to do so because he owned the Yankees and MLB suffers financially whenever the Yankees aren't the top dogs.
