    OPS includes Wacha's BABIP luck. Wacha Career: 298 2019: 313 2021: 312 2022: 260 Wonder where that 36 points came from??? Wacha was hit harder than Kluber. Higher barrel rate, higher EV and an xERA of 4.56.

    What drop? 10th in attendance in 2022. 9th in attendance in 2018. What good does winning do?
  3. mvp 78
    I think the clubhouse leader is Alex Cora.
  4. mvp 78
    They were wrong then. If they had signed him, they could have traded him once Mayer was ready. It's a below market contract now.

    He outpitched Wacha last season. Wacha: 1.5 fWAR, 127 IP, 3.99 xFIP, bb/9 2.19 Kluber: 3.0 fWAR, 164 IP, 3.92 xFIP, bb/9 1.15 Once Wacha's BABIP luck regresses, he's toast again.

    I hope to have clarity regarding the OF prior to spring training... Not expecting it though.
  7. mvp 78
    His statcast has lots of blue. If he doesn't keep the walks down, his utility greatly decreases.
  8. mvp 78
    I don't think there's a clubhouse issue. I think there may have been a divide between the players leaving via FA and the front office.

    Rodon for 7 years? Yuck.
  10. mvp 78
    They can miss the playoffs and have him keep his job. It just depends on if he's meeting JH's standards. We don't know if he's just following the script right now.
  11. mvp 78
    Manaea was terrible last season.
  12. mvp 78
    Kluber is much better than those guys.
  13. mvp 78
    No.
  14. mvp 78
    It's a "business" but you still have to care about company culture and how the brand is portrayed to the public. Right now, both are not good.
  15. mvp 78
    They would have just just offer him 10/350 for him to sign now. Otherwise, he's just going to wait it out.
  16. mvp 78
    Sox wouldn't re-sign Mookie. They were blown out of the water with Xander. I don't see an indication that they'd re-sign Devers. There is no way they can go into this season with Devers as the 3b unless they have extended him. If he gets to the trade deadline, the return decreases. If he gets to FA, all they can get out of it is a comp pick (4th rounder if they are over the lux tax again, thanks Bloom). What a waste... They have to trade him.

    Well, it won't be Sam Kennedy since he's a partner in FSG.
  18. mvp 78
    Showing/Hoarding/Distributing
  19. mvp 78
    Yup.
  20. mvp 78
    Not enough AAV for 5 years. He was 200M++.
  21. mvp 78
    They are all operating in the black. That's not even up for debate. None of these teams are losing money. The Braves have public financials and reported $400M solely in baseball revenue through Q3.
  22. mvp 78
    Honestly, they aren't signing any of the guys you mentioned.
  23. mvp 78
    Again, are posters not allowed to agree with other posters???
  24. mvp 78
    Option 1: Same as 2022. Do nothing. "We're going to compete." He ends up hitting FA. Option 2: Extend prior to the season. Seems unlikely since they haven't shown the willingness under Bloom to do a monster deal. Option 3: Trade Raffy. Reminiscent of the Betts deal, but hopefully the players that come back provide better value. In order of likelihood: 1>3>2
  25. mvp 78
    Exactly. There are more players with LOOOONG contracts taking up a higher % of the payroll across the league.
