    Martinez was coming off 5 fWAR and 8.5 fWAR back to back seasons. Castillo is NOT at that level. That trade is an ovepay
  2. mvp 78
    I agree that Bloom won't sign two "established" relievers. I'm not sure he signs even one.
  3. mvp 78
    I didn't recommend Escobar for the Sox. I was just saying that his projected deal was a good value.
  4. mvp 78
    But why?
  5. mvp 78
    They wouldn't get much back for Renfoe. When he's hot, he can carry a lineup.
  6. mvp 78
    If they signed Iggy instead of Escobar, I wouldn't mind it. I think that Escobar is a good value though.
  7. mvp 78
    Yes, I don't like Story because of his away splits. Arenado also had massive splits, which now is a reverse split for STL 722 Home and 885 Away. It's always safer to stay away from Coors guys.

    ERod at 5/70 Iglesias 4/56 Graveman 3/27 Escobar 2/20

    1. He's only been in the org for 4 years. 2. He missed 2020 as did the vast majority of players. 3. He's been a full time player since he's been in the org. 4. He's appeared in over 100 games. He basically has the same usage as Kimbrel did after being drafted.

    I'm the super-ego of TalkSox.

    They toyed around with Valdez's playing time enough this year. May as well let him loose.
  12. mvp 78
    I agree that his value should be high because of his pay, but it still seems a little inflated.
  13. mvp 78
    They won the WS without that choker.
  14. mvp 78
    Feltman has barely pitched?
  15. mvp 78
    That's because I'm good at posting.
  16. mvp 78
    I could see them protecting Downs/Bello/Winckowski/Santos/Crawford/Feltman/Cottam.
  17. mvp 78
    I like Verdugo, but I don't think his BTV amount is accurate. Seems kinda high.
  18. mvp 78
    Verdugo and the Renfroe pitcher.
  19. mvp 78
    Yes, sir.
  20. mvp 78
    Yeah, I don't see Schwarber coming back.
  21. mvp 78
    I don't get the argument about NOT offering the QO. More often than not, players will outright reject the QO. Even Stephen freakin' Drew rejected the QO. My guess is that ERod rejects it too. It allows the Sox to sign a QO guy without losing anything or get a free comp pick. It just makes too much sense to offer anyone halfway decent a QO. And ERod was a top 20 SP per fWAR last season.

    Rodriguez Fangraphs: 4/20M, $80M Crowd median: 4/18M, $72M Crowd average: 4/18.2M, $78M Schwarber Fangraphs: 4/15M, $60M Crowd median: 4/15M, $60M Crowd average: 4/14.9M, $59.6M
  23. mvp 78
    In strict Webster's terms, it seems that cash out would be to take the QO (convert noncash assets to cash) but cash in would be to reject the QO (settle accounts and withdraw from an involvement). They are kind of used interchangeably though.
  24. mvp 78
    Hard to say. In FA, he can get a guaranteed 4 year deal, but for less AAV.
  25. mvp 78
    Much? IDK. He was a better bet than Kiké IMO. 2017 4.8 fWAR 2018 3.1 fWAR 2020 1.7 fWAR (would have been 3+ in a full season) 2021 3.1 fWAR Kiké only had one season above 3 (2018) before hitting the market. Taylor's value is completely in his bat since he had 5 straight years with 100+ WRC+. Kiké's value is in his glove and that doesn't get the cash registers ringing.
