  1. 2 playoff appearances in his 7 years. He's been fine? I think he only got the extension because the Sox FO was reaching out.
  2. So Anthony/Bleis/Mayer for Tatis?
  3. Should he be? He had a 335 MLB OPS in the regular season with a 32% k rate.
  4. Then what do YOU think is a reasonable value?
  5. It may not take the entire package I posted, but someone would have to show me something more "realistic" before I put down the BTV one. I only posted the BTV as a reference point for the massive haul it would take to get a 24 year old superstar on a below market contract for 11 years.
  6. The CBO position is really overseeing the entire operation, not just selecting the players. Having the communications skills that Cora has would be great for that role. Does he currently "manage" his coaching staff and players well (not baseball performance wise)? I don't know. I think selecting players would really fall heavily on the GM and assistant GMs. Negotiations probably depend on the situation.
  7. Not offered a move upstairs, offered a chance to be a part of the interviews. They weren't going to just hand him a role. If they said "hey, want the fake executive VP of baseball operations we gave to Brian?" He would have taken it. They wanted to know if he wanted a shot at the GM/CBO role, just a chance to interview for the position. To his credit, he said he wasn't ready. I think they like his communication skills and he could be good at the position at some point, but I have no idea what he is or is not ready for. He's FINE as a manager. He could be better as a CBO (at some point) or he could be much worse. We just don't know. He just doesn't know!
  8. I would agree about that 100%. Tatis has a very reasonable AAV for the next 11 years and once moved off of SS, he became an elite defensive RFer. Soto is a bad defender and only has one year remaining. In order to re-sign him long term, it's going to take a massive contract, one much larger than Tatis'. Soto is a great player, but Padres are trying to cut costs after a season where they went overboard and underperformed.
  9. What do you think is a reasonable trade for Tatis?
  10. In order to make a trade on BTV work: Mayer Bleis Anthony Yorke Houck Bello
  11. I've heard rumblings about Rafaela being a super UTIL for CF/2B/SS.
  12. They asked if he would like to be included as part of the interviews and he declined. What is so difficult about this?
  13. Maybe because the new GM/CBO is already in house?
  14. Cora mentioned that he wasn't happy with the performance of his coaching staff. We'll see what other moves are made if any.
  15. Depends on which starting pitcher is available. I think any and all prospects are available in the right trade.
  16. The org was finally held over a barrel.
  17. And posters on here were running down his mom for it.
  18. I believe HOU was interested in Verdugo this year. Altuve is a FA after next season. Teams should do a straight swap.
  19. They are going to Frankenstein monster a 2B in 2024.
  20. I agree.
  21. What's the quote where Mookie says he turned 10/300?
  22. The Red Sox aren't mum on anything when it comes to trying to cover their ass with PR.
  23. I like when Baez swings at sliders beyond the LH batter's box. Good player!
  24. JH's definition of "legitimate" were still far below what he got paid by the Dodgers while under contract and not on the open market.
