    From 10/11:

    A true dirt dog.

    On 9/23, Old Red stated "need a reliable closer and go from there." I responded with: This is the first mention of Montero. The very next post is notin saying: "No Fulmer?" There is a complaint that the ideas we have posted are boring and aren't moving the needle. I post a crazy idea that signs a bunch of FA then follow it up with an actual FA plan that leaves space for an extension for Raffy. Fellow posters laud me as a mathematical genius. This post includes Montero as the closer to be signed. Over the next few weeks, I mention Montero as an option to be the "clear closer." notin continues to mention "Fulmer and Montero." I think notin and I both want Montero signed, but maybe for slightly different reasons. Your belief that he somehow posted about Montero as closer "weeks" before is made up, as usual. C'mon man.

    Only the GOOD ones, buddy.
  7. mvp 78
    Maybe. I also don't see SS as a logjam. Those guys are talented enough that you can move off position depending on need.
  8. mvp 78
    Crawford is a much better SS though. Moving him over for Xander doesn't make baseball sense to me. I think the contract is a little high, but not outrageous. I was comfortable with 6 years at 27.5M AAV, that's just an extra year with .5M more per year.

    If your brain remembers that kind of nonsense, you have bigger problems than I do.

    10 DRS Disaster? I didn't think that's what DRS stood for?
  11. mvp 78
    I'm not saying you did say they would be protected. However, in the past we have come up with lists of about 8 guys that "absolutely" had to be protected like Jimenez. Bloom just has a metric that knows how far away guys can be that he can avoid putting them on the 40.
  12. mvp 78
    I only didn't make it 7-8 guys because Bloom has left a few surprises off the 40 man prior to the draft. Every year we talk about adding a ton of guys and then some guy we thought would be protected is left off the 40 man but then isn't drafted.
  13. mvp 78
    I would assume trade. I think he has some meager value even at a yet unknown ARB salary.

    Are the Mets the Yankees now and the Yankees are the Mets?
  15. mvp 78
    Whitlock was VERY good in close and late situations in 2021. If they just put him there and made him the closer, nobody would bat an eye. I don't know if that will work. My phone already autocorrects Lady Gaga to Gary Gygax.
  16. mvp 78
    And awfully short for some reason. The Tom Cruise of TalkSox?
  17. mvp 78
    1. mvp thought it was funny that notin talked about himself in the third person in a post so mvp did it for another day or two on that same post. It's over. It's done. 2. I never slkip, skip or slip. 3. If it's in the same offseason, I wouldn't consider it stealing, just convergent thinking maybe. 4. Udathunkdat!
  18. mvp 78
    It's because you're the same poster. You've stolen moon's log in which is why his posts have gone downhill lately.
  19. mvp 78
    It's ok. Everyone eventually comes to realization at some point that I truly have the gift of foresight. They just exhibit it in different ways. moon: frustration bellhorn: deflection notin: jealousy (steals my ideas after the fact) sweetchinmusic: logs off and then forgets his password for 11 months
  20. mvp 78
    Whitlock to the rotation. Houck is the relief ace.
  21. mvp 78
    moon, how do you explain this post then?
  22. mvp 78
    If they don't have a good run in 2023, it's going to get UGLY... and it should. They need to dig up George this Hallow's Eve and have him torment his dumb kids until they quit this nonsense or sell.
  23. mvp 78
    There was no reason to do that though. They were going to be competitive! That's what I was told! Now they probably think I'm just buzzarding again. Silly old me...
  24. mvp 78
    IMO, they should just sign Montero and make him the defacto closer for the duration of whatever contract they give him.
  25. mvp 78
    What would YOU know about TalkSox history, pal?
