  1. If the top guys are all paid more than Kimbrel, that is the market. Several Gms have justified paying that type of money for top relievers. And Kimbrel is the best of them at a lower cost. You really don't have a complaint.
  2. But in the end, he is a loser.
  3. You probably are right about that.
  4. It was good to see him have a nice day and get celebrated for it. He'll probably get optioned soon, and his chances for days like this are dwindling.
  5. I agree. Moncada was the Big Blue Chip with the "Can't Miss" tag.
  6. Good point. We would probably have to call her King if that was one of her gender pronouns.
  7. 4 games without a hit is a slump.
  8. Beane is a loser, and Moneyball was a lot of hype about very little.
  9. LOL!!!Only if the balls were added through surgery.
  10. Nice win for the team, and the greedy owners get to pocket the gate.
  11. Goodness, this Jumbo Diaz guy takes shits that are bigger than each of the Killer Bees.
  12. Marrero? Seriously? The balls are really flying today.
  13. I have hated them for years.
  14. But the FO should not have a false impression of the value of their assets or they are not doing their job. Devers is pretty close to MLB ready. He is a much more valuable chip then all of the others traded except for Moncada (and he netted us a super star starting pither)
  15. Bradley needs to find his s*** fast. His bat is needed. we no longer have the luxury of saying that we will carry his .200 bat because of his glove. We don't have Big Papi anchoring this lineup. We have little production at catcher, zero at 3B and a subpar offensive first baseman. You can't carry 4 dead spots in the lineup regardless of the quality of your pitching. He needs to start producing.
  16. It's not really a Pomeranz vs. Beltre issue.
  17. This lineup is a joke for a $200 million team where the best players XB, Betts and Benintendi are dirt cheap.
  18. There are big differences. Whatever Pomeranz is, he is approaching or is in his prime. Beltre is at the end of his career and comes with a 2018 price tag of $18 million. Pomerance costs about $3 million/year and we have him under control for a few years, which is a very cheap price for a starting pitcher in your MLB rotation. Devers has a late 2017 -early 2018 exected arrival date. Espinoza is expected about 2020-21.
