If there was a clubhouse issue with Devers, it would have been more likely that you would have heard rumors after he was gone about internal nonsense from players rather than "we're moving on." Players turning the page is just a credit to Cora and says nothing about Devers IMO.
I really don't like Edward Cabrera. His name gets mentioned all the time. He's 27 and always has felt relieverish to me. I don't love his bb rate (2nd highest since '23).
2 years of Alcantara for Clarke? He'll maybe give you 6 fWAR over the 2 years and the contract is worth 5 fWAR. BTV has him at 15M? Seems a little higher than I'd expect. IDK.
Um, whenever I've seen a Marlins game this season, it hasn't been pretty. I'd personally pass on Alcantara, but if Breslow believes he can turn it around and thinks Clarke is worth the risk to send to MIA, I'd trust him.
Yophery isn't going to net anything substantial unless packaged with something good. That one was a swing and a miss by Bres if they were offered other assets.
There's no confusion on my part except for the mental gymnastics you are doing on the last paragraph.
It's interesting that you say things like "fabricated data" because it shows a complete lack of understanding of what the advanced stats are, the process to how they are created and why many smart baseball fans like them.
The only real fact is that you are struggling to get along with people here. Work on your approach and maybe things will get better for you.
It depends on what the Marlins are looking for. If the Sox weren't trying to get the to playoffs, I'd give a struggling Alcantara the 5th spot in the rotation. Right now, he's about the same as Buehler and it's just rearranging deckchairs if you move Buehler to the pen.
They said on last night's podcast that Witherspoon would probably rank 6th (in the Arias/Garcia/Perales tier) with the Phillips and Eyanson around 12-15. Godbout would be closer to 30.
Fitts '25
4 G, 17 IP, 2.70 ERA, 1.15 WHIP
1 G that should have been rehabbd in POR/WOO
3 G, 12.2 IP, 3.55 ERA, 1.19 WHIP
Seems like he's bee pretty good except for one start even though he's dealt with an injury?
Hasn't lived up to expectations? What?
Expectations for Fitts was a 4-5 starter at his peak. Coming into the season, he was fighting for the 5th spot. Seems to be that's what he is.
