    Dalbec can't hit the heat. Greinke doesn't have heat. I thought it would have been a good chance to put him in there.
  2. mvp 78
    Schwarber 1B, Hernández CF, Devers 3B, Bogaerts SS, Verdugo LF, Martinez DH, Renfroe RF, Vázquez C, Arroyo 2B
  3. mvp 78
    Little did they know that all they had to do was call up Shaw and then wait for Moncada or Devers to develop.
  4. mvp 78
    Sounds better if you do this: NYM get: Bogaerts/Seabold BOS get: Alonso/McNeill/Megill
  5. mvp 78
    I guess? He'll be 28 with about 300 innings in his career at 4 fWAR. Houk had a higher fWAR this year than Valdez and he's younger with MORE years of control and a smaller BTV value.
  6. mvp 78
    No. Yorke might not be very likely to do it, but I don't think Jimenez even makes the Show.
  7. mvp 78
    That 50 on Valdez just seems high to me. He'll be 28 next year and he's still not a sure thing.
  8. mvp 78
    PEDRO Baez? Framber doesn't move the needle for me. Yuck.
  9. mvp 78
    Jarren Duran will not get to 30 fWAR in his career. He'll never have a season like Ellsbury did in 2013.
  10. mvp 78
    None of them, that's why it's a best case scenario. Casas probably has the best chance to reach the projected ceiling. Of the 10, Jimenez has the worst chance.
  11. mvp 78
    I think it was a move pushed by Werner's stupid Cosby Show brain to help sell Panda hats and get "stars" for his newest tv show.
  12. mvp 78
    Yes, I didn't just want to go through and do a what if. Abreu was a need. There were no 1b's ready in the pipeline and Napoli was going to be out sooner than later. Max was the clear cut best FA SP in those years and didn't come with some of the Price questions. Zobrist would have been a great, cheap plug and play guy. Deals like Panda and Hanley just rarely work out. Panda wasn't a consistent producer and his weight forced him out of SF. Hanley was just not consistently healthy and he turned into a pumpkin at age 30. He was set to be a mega star at age 25, but it didn't turn out that way.
  13. mvp 78
    I don't think Baez is going to cost nearly as much as Semien. Theoretically, I think they could sign Baez and Schwarber and still have enough for Xander and Devers going forward. You would just be unable to get FA acquisitions at any other offensive position.
  14. mvp 78
    It should have been Abreu in 2013, Max in 2014, Zobrist in 2015. Those 3 moves would have prevented some disasters later on.
  15. mvp 78
    It was a very bad offseason to want to spend. The only contracts that were worth it in the long run were Max, Lester and Nelson Cruz.
  16. mvp 78
    The more money you tack on, the less you get in return.
  17. mvp 78
    There were more, but it's debatable if any of them were better than Max. Price Greinke Cueto Zimmermann Samarzija Leake Kazmir Happ Lackey The real bargain was Rich Hill at 1/6. Sox should have just said "we'll give you a rotation spot."
  18. mvp 78
    He just wants the pain killers to hit over Halloween weekend. Makes sense to me.
  19. mvp 78
    Yankees seem to like injury prone guys, so I guess it makes sense. If I was GM, I'd go for Correa.
  20. mvp 78
    Yes, he'd lose "a few" million, but unless the arbitration dollars go through the roof, it'd be close enough.
  21. mvp 78
    Let me try: 1. Casas - Votto 2. Mayer - Cal Ripken Jr 3. Yorke - Jeff Kent 4. Duran - Ellsbury 5. Downs - Didi 6. Bello - Luis Castillo 7. Jimenez - Starling Marte 8. Seabold - Porcello 9. Blaze - Justin Turner 10. Groome - Sidney Ponson
  22. mvp 78
    Maybe. He would be up for arbitration in years 4, 5 and 6. He'd make 8/15/20 in those years? He could make a few million more if he goes through arbitration, but this would be a guaranteed amount of money that would set him up for life even if he has a career ending injury.
  23. mvp 78
    His ceiling was Justin Morneau. He just never got there. Those comps weren't trying to forecast what the player would be, but what the player COULD be if everything broke right.
  24. mvp 78
    6/17.5M... I think Wander wouldn't go for that.
  25. mvp 78
    Think they've offered anything to Wander yet?
