  1. I believe the offer is real. I believe another team may beat this offer.
  2. No name guys can make grand declarations and then just disappear if it goes wrong. If it works out, they are seen as INSIDERS even though they just scrapped their news from losers like Mario Pepen or whoever.
  3. All the twitter guys don't tend to have their own sources, but are taking it from other places. This story came from a spanish podcast I believe that was translated and then some smol bean twitter dudes ran with it.
  4. Bell, we know you're still using Netscape Navigator.
  5. There's no rule that says you aren't allowed to negotiate with two FA's at once.
  6. Woo had a great WHIP and doesn't walk anyone. Crochet is a high K guy. I'd be happy to have either as my number two behind Burnes or Fried.
  7. I'd put Winckowski in any and all trades. Don't care about that guy at all.
  8. It's going to be at least 10 years. What's another 5 at that point?
  9. Woo seems like a very good pitcher who was marginally helped out by pitching in SEA. Crochet has some question marks, but has a CY ceiling right out of the box. Hard to say who I would make the trade for, but Crochet would have to be extended for sure. I think Crochet is a little overhyped. I'm not a Crochet hater, I just think people are going a little overboard on him. I don't think he's the game changer CHW Chris Sale was prior to the trade.
  10. Frank Robinson: 22.5 bWAR age 22-25 Ken Griffey Jr: 24.8 age 22-25 Eddie Matthews: 28 bWAR Andruw Jones: 26.7 bWAR
  11. Crucified?!?!? We definitely needed mods back then!
  12. Fine with me. I don't want him on the Sox either.
  13. His first 3 postseason starts were ok. Game 6 sucked, but it happens. My opinions on Manaea aren't a reflection on how he pitched against the Dodgers in the postseason. He just has a history of being very productive one season and kind of sucking for a year or two. He's not a guy I want to pay 20M for.
  14. The Dodgers owners put their money where their mouths are and all the other owners just sit there and look dumbfounded. Yeah, just do that dummies.
  15. They extended them for their fair market value if the players perform well. There was no cost savings. At worst, they have a larger CBT hit than they need to for a UTIL guy and a 4/5 starter. 😖
  16. We don't know what the offer was and I can't fault him for turning it down to begin with. I think he struggled to get back on the field this year and that's what I'm most concerned about. I just want guys that can actually be counted on to play. I don't care about off field stuff so much.
  17. Yes, whenever I don't like a player it's clearly personal. Just like all your bad baseball opinions are based on you having something personal against each player you don't like. 🙃
  18. There's a lot to like, but his defense never improved and he can't stay on the field.
  19. Now is when they should be spending. We'll see if they actually do it. I think the extensions they agreed to last year were dumb and were solely meant to appease fans.
  20. The first ARod contract was a great deal. He was an all-time talent and hit the crap out of the ball from 01-09. It's a shame they moved him off of SS for Jeter. ARod ended his career with 117 bWAR! He's second only to Honus Wagner in SS bWAR. He had a career 140 OPS+, won 3 MVPs and was top 5 in MVP voting 6 times! That's just video game numbers.
  21. I think the Sox offer is probably 4th out of the 5 offers. I think they made an offer just to show the fanbase that they "are back." I don't entirely believe the spending will actually increase all that much. Maybe they sign one TOTR starter like Fried or Burnes and call it a day.
