  1. Fine Hicks, Masa, Arias, Garcia, Clarke, Romero, Sandlin, Paez, Monegro, Mullins for Ohtani (replaces Hicks and Masa)
  2. He can DH a little bit too though. Figured it'd offset his limitations as a pitcher. 🫠
  3. You do it if you believe Rushing is the future starting catcher because of his MiLB offensive output.
  4. IDK. He's got quite the injury transaction listing. He was a 4 fWAR guy at 150 IP and that's where he peaked. That's Duran every year. Seems like a lot to give up for a guy who misses a ton of time. I'd rather find pitchers that have a better track record. That used car might look really good in the listing, but the oil stains on the driving should make you think twice.
  5. 29 DRS at 3B? His previous high was 5. wRC+ was under 120. That WAR was massively inflated TBH. He was never an outstanding defensive player and then became the third best defender in MLB?
  6. Yeah, Lodolo for Abreu seems to make a little bit more sense for both teams TBH.
  7. I'm sure they were REALLY struggling after one year of COVID. They were barely a going concern before COVID and then BAM! Wow, unbelievable that they were able to get through that. 🤏🎻
  8. I think they can work out a deal. Not sure it has to be a one for one or even include Duran TBH.
  9. I think signing extensions is a lot different than luring prospective FA's. What are the prominent offensive FAs that SEA has brought in since moving ballparks 25 years ago? Ichiro (does he really count?) Adrian Beltre Nelson Cruz Cano Richie Sexson Anyone else?
  10. Is this because of the owner, or because hitters don't want to go to SEA?
  11. The middle ground to me is go over the CBT for 2 years and reset the 3rd.
  12. Seems like LAD has been sustainable to me.
  13. The fans push this team to 3rd in MLB in revenue each year with their own investment. Why continue to hold the payroll line artificially low just because?
  14. TOR and LAD both spent boatloads on their team this season. Seems to have worked out. The Rays model is below .500 the past two seasons and just found a new owner which will cause a bunch of FO guys to leave this offseason. Sinking ship.
  15. He has the range to play it, but not the arm.
  16. Willi Castro's SS defense doesn't seem all that hot lately. He was my first thought.
  17. Hamilton is 2b only and really hard to keep him AND Romy as UTIL guys if neither can play SS. The upper minors are rough and Arias is a few years away. IKF signing as backup UTIL? Possible trade for a backup instead? Go the Arauz route via Rule 5?
  18. I agree that Bregman for 5 years is too long. With Arenado, the hope is that the Pull AIR % leads to a mild resurgence. The only problem with the "he's ok as a bottom order bat" is that the Sox already have Rafaela and potentially Wong. Having those 3 at the end of a lineup would be a real quick inning. Do you think the Sox would actually move Story off SS? They should, but it seems unlikely to me that they will move the veteran over TBH. Story's defense took a big turn for the worse this year and could play up at 2b.
  19. I still expect him in the pen due to his overall lack of experience and 40 man timeline.
  20. Feel free to express whatever trade ideas you like. Just expect @notin to come at you with BTV backup and @moonslav59 with an alternate proposal that includes a potpourri of prospects. Our nonsense is a little more chill than over there. Welcome!
  21. "Didn't re-sign Bregman. Decided that he was causing too much commotion behind the scenes on the ipads. Was playing Minecraft and watching Youtube shorts while in the dugout. Actually, he doesn't even like Boston. Thinks pink clam chowder is the best. Bad guy, really." - Sammy first day of ST
  22. There's always going to be those psychos that complain when things are good and then shout from the rooftops how everything is amazing when Carl Crawford is signed.
