    Pillar's bat is definitely the reason he'd be dealt. He has a very solid glove and doesn't kill you when he's in the lineup. Perfect plug and play guy for a team going to the playoffs.
  2. mvp 78
    Pillar has much more recent experience in both RF and LF in the past two years. I'd argue that while JBJ's arm is stronger, that his defense over his career is not that much different than Pillar's. Though it's hard to know how much of an effect Betts in RF had on his overall defensive value. Offensively, Pillar is far superior to JBJ this year.
  3. mvp 78
    Pillar is a better trading chip than Brasier.
  4. mvp 78
    The only good thing about the Dodgers was the stadium, the crisp uni's and Vin Scully. Fernando Valenzuela was dope. He's the only Dodgers player I've liked.
  5. mvp 78
    Does Pillar have more value due to positional versatility? Hard to see a team wanting to bring JBJ on as a backup.
  6. mvp 78
    There's always room to move some bullpen guys (Barnes and Brasier). I don't think JD or JBJ are going anywhere. Maybe they spin Pillar off for cheap as a 4th OF to someone? I don't see them moving Peraza. I guess they are looking at dealing Vaz, but I think he'll be here tomorrow. Maybe Perez gets moved, but I doubt it. Eovaldi stays for sure.

    Hosmer is not a good 1B from what I remember. That Hosmer contract is garbage too. Yuck.

    Trading a catcher like Vaz seems more like an offseason move IMO. Only having a month for Vaz to learn a pitching staff before the playoffs is not ideal.

    So if the NL DH goes away next year (50/50 chance?), Mitch will be a FA again.
  10. mvp 78
    I have never heard of that here.

    They usually have good prospects. The major league team is just run like a s*** show.
  12. mvp 78
    Looks like they only have one decent catching prospect (Alvarez). Hard to see the Mets moving him for Vazquez though. Maybe the Sox are just going to send them pitching? Looks like the majority of the Mets prospects are position players, so I'm not sure they'd be dealing pitching prospects for Vaz either.

    The Mets’ deadline wish list includes a catcher and pitching (both starting and relieving) help, MLB Network’s Jon Heyman tweets. Perhaps in a related item, The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal writes that the Red Sox have been “doing background on Mets minor leaguers,” which could hint at a potential trade. Rosenthal figures Christian Vazquez would be a natural fit to address the Mets’ catching needs, and we’ve already heard that the Sox have discussed Vazquez with the Rays in recent days. Speculatively, such Red Sox hurlers as Martin Perez, Matt Barnes, or Ryan Brasier could potentially be on the Mets’ radar, though the Sox just lost potential trade chip Nathan Eovaldi to the injured list. Can't say I know much about the Mets prospects.

    I guess Remy said during the pregame (which I don't have access to watch) that he thought Dalbec's first hit would be a HR.
  15. mvp 78
    Competition for eyeballs also include the Angels in OC and Dodgers in LA. There are 3 MLB franchises within 125 miles of each other. Dodgers have a long storied history and are far more popular. Angels and Padres take a back seat in SoCal. The vibe there also isn't one of rabid fandom. If you asked a Padres fan about their suffering, they probably wouldn't understand what you're getting at. Sports fandom here is just different than it is over there.

    Mitch was signed for only $3M at the end of January. He’s never been a hot commodity. Better to move him at the height of his value.
  17. mvp 78
    I knew someone would fall out of the Monster Seats eventually.
  18. mvp 78
    Ladies and gentlemen, here are your past two WS champions! Eck: Yuck!
  19. mvp 78
    Since this dumb post: HR, BB, 3B Pulled.
  20. mvp 78
    Is he even ready?
  21. mvp 78
    Godley has been fine.

    Dalbec hitting a bomb today.
  24. mvp 78
    Dalbec getting called up: f*** yeah!
  25. mvp 78
    Dodgers haven’t won a WS since Thunder was born.
