I agree. Snell - 2 CY Soto - 0 MVP
-
It's not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, but it just seems like a poor use of the 40 man roster.
-
His defensive stats are wild. A few years ago he had good defensive season. I don't know if it's park related or what.
-
In Trout's partial 2023 season, he would have been 2nd on the Sox in fWAR and led in wRC+.
-
If Duran is only as good as Walter, why wouldn't we trade Trout for him?
-
I would have kept Drohan too? IDK. They have much more info on him than we do.
-
Per BTV: Soto for Houck Abreu
-
They already have enough LHB OFers. Pass on Soto.

@JeffPassan News at ESPN: MLB owners unanimously voted to allow the Oakland A's to move to Las Vegas, paving the way for the second relocation of a baseball team in the last half century. @TalkinBaseball_ A's won't have a permanent home from 2025 to 2027 because their lease to play in the Oakland Coliseum is up after 2024 and the Vegas move is expected to happen in 2028, per @BNightengale A's plan to play in their Triple A park in Nevada, Oracle Park in San Francisco and more
-
Now that the CBO is a former pitcher, we'll see how much he values defense behind the plate.
-
And Duran is maybe being treated as a platoon guy? Trout playing 90 games vs Duran playing 120? Trout would still have a higher fWAR.
-
Hell to the naw naw naw... No chance.
-
O'Neill is only 5.5 on BTV (Romero and Hickey).
-
I don't get this reference. The only references I know are "the older the buck, the stiffer the horn" and "you old bastards got alot of nerve. You think my 1992 season should have won me the CY Young. You're out of your league pal." Honestly, if I had to redo my user name it would be a reference to Dick Radatz.
-
If Trout is healthy, he's a 5 fWAR guy. I don't see Duran getting there, that's why I think Trout is the upside guy in this equation. Duran is cheaper, but I just have a lot of questions about him still. And he did also have a season ending injury last year!
-
Hard to say. If they lose out on Ohtani, they won't have any franchise players left. They'll need to fill the ballpark somehow and it won't be with Anthony Rendon.
-
Trout started getting injured once he turned 29. O'Neill started getting injured once he turned 27. And so it goes.
-
O'Neill '22-'23: 0 DRS 1 OAA 98 wRC+ less games played than Trout
-
And we are counting on Trevor Story to do what?
-
The 2024 OF should be: Trout - LF Rafaela - CF Mookie - RF
-
I don't think they will do it, but it's fun to talk about on here.
-
I don't entirely believe Duran can repeat that production and I think Crawford is a dime a dozen pitcher. I came up with the salary I'd be willing to fork out and players I'd be willing to let go. Seems like Duran isn't a good fit in LF. Crawford is just ok. Swapping Trout for Duran is a big upside play for sure. I'm not sure the Angels would even accept that trade anyway. We see it as an overpay, they would see it as an underpay.
-
A's have about 5 guys on their 40 man that could be droppable for a guy like Drohan IMO.
-
Trout + 140M (Sox paying Trout to be a 2 fWAR guy for through 2030) for Duran Crawford
-
He punched a cop in the desert which got him into visa trouble. Sounds like a dirt dog to me.
