    Was that the issue prior to 2021?
  2. mvp 78
    IDK. Someone out there probably has an itchy trigger finger.

    If Devers was moved to DH, he'd take less wear and tear on his body. He could just focus on hitting. I believe his offense would get better. I believe he'd be healthier. I don't think he'd be a 5 fWAR guy, but think he'd still be a 4 fWAR guy or close to it. Having a guy like that anchor the lineup pays dividends as we saw from 03-16. I pay him.
  4. mvp 78
    Ohtani's offensive fWAR being solely a DH is not a comp? Devers' wRC+ laps JD's easily aside from 2018.
  5. mvp 78
    This is victim blaming.
  6. mvp 78
    The Brewers are a mess. They should just trade Yelich and move on.
  7. mvp 78
    I wouldn't do Neris for Verdugo. That's a pass from me. Urquidy for Verdugo? Sure.
  8. mvp 78
    No? Ortiz in 03 and 04 had 145 and 147 wRC+. Devers can do that. Ohtani had a 142 wRC+ at DH this season and got 3.8 fWAR from it. Devers can do that.
  9. mvp 78
    If he transitions to DH and puts up wRC+ in the 140s, he'll have 4 fWAR seasons consistently. That's $32M in value per Fangraphs. 10X30, get it done.
  10. mvp 78
    Per Fangraphs, 1 fWAR is worth 8M. A 5 fWAR season would be equate to 40M on the open market in value.
  11. mvp 78
    According to Fangraphs Value, Raffy is worth it. Will he be worth it 8 years from now?
  12. mvp 78
    Raffy is better than Story simply because of how good his bat is. I think he has a generational bat.
  13. mvp 78
    Career: Ramirez 41.2 fWAR Arenado 45.7 fWAR (1000 extra PA's from 2013-15) Since 2016: Ramirez 39.5 fWAR Arenado 36.8 fWAR

    If there was, you'd be in the penalty box. Blocked.

    https://www.si.com/mlb/2022/08/18/astros-six-man-rotation-the-opener Apparently, the Angels have used a 6 man rotation since 2018?
  16. mvp 78
    With Whitlock in the rotation, it makes sense. Houck starts off as the closer, but moves back to set up guy.
  17. mvp 78
    Cake time.
  18. mvp 78
    That's 50M before he gets his gas bill this winter... The ask will probably go up. I'm not sure how they know what Raffy would actually take.
  19. mvp 78
    He was fired because of the Vaz trade.
  20. mvp 78
    I heard he had Anatidaephobia: the fear that somewhere, somehow, a duck is watching you.
  21. mvp 78
    Just wait until XXXXX is gone.
  22. mvp 78
    If not, what do you think the plan is at SS? No FA? Kiké? Story? Cheap FA? Andrus/Iglesias?
  23. mvp 78
    Is there a scoring system here?
  24. mvp 78
    It would be the Sox' biggest contract of all time. It's a risk for sure. Cora likes him. He's an MVP candidate when at the top of his game. Bogey's power was way down and his fielding as you've reminded us so very often is "below average" at best. The only benefit is that he's best pals with Raffy and is a great clubhouse fit.
  25. mvp 78
    I want to believe.
