    They were trading other players to cut payroll, not Kirby and Gilbert.
  2. mvp 78
    They are supposedly trying to cut payroll, but that would have been to sign someone, right? I think Castillo is the payroll you keep around and trim on the edges.

    @mlbtraderumors Mets Sign Cam Robinson To Minor League Deal Damn, Cohen must be out on Yamamoto, Monty, Imanaga and Snell!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  4. mvp 78
    If Jansen fails, there are enough in house replacements for a one inning role (Whitlock, Houck).
  5. mvp 78
    If you're the Mariners, you probably don't need an injured Mayer, but would be interested in Anthony and Teel. My guess is one of the big requirements would be a trading partner that has young pitching. Alas....

    If anyone on here actually knows what their strategy really is for fielding the 26 man roster, I'd like to hear it.
  7. mvp 78
    Still need to be able to spend it on the right players and acquire talent in other means. Other teams compete with much smaller budgets.
  8. mvp 78
    We'll see!
  9. mvp 78
    The age is why I don't think Imanaga gets more than a 4/5 year deal.
  10. mvp 78
    Classic flip flopper behavior. I think that's the problem with having too many cooks in the kitchen the way the Sox FO does.
  11. mvp 78
    Devilry.
  12. mvp 78
    I haven't heard that Imanaga will wind up as a reliever.
  13. mvp 78
    Have you compared the two?
  14. mvp 78
    I think I could be sold on a Giolito bounce back if the got Yamamoto, otherwise it has to be to really top guys.
  15. mvp 78
    It'd be a consolation prize. I wouldn't be over the moon per se.
  16. mvp 78
    Maybe they have the conversation this weekend and then make the decision to do just that? No clue. They are clearly making their bed in a similar manner to previous offseasons.
  17. mvp 78
    Me too.

    Just takes some faith, trust and sprinkling of pixie dust.

    @tylermilliken_ 3 minutes and 11 seconds of Shota Imanaga carving up hitters last season. His 68% strike rate would have been tied for 5th-best in the majors with Spencer Strider in 2023. Had the best Stuff+ of any pitcher in the WBC. 24 GS (159 IP), 2.66 ERA, 10.6 K/9, 1.4 BB/9, 7.8 H/9, 1.0 HR/9. https://twitter.com/tylermilliken_/status/1732919700718256523 Nice easy delivery.

    As the booby prize, it's fine. Anything less than that is not ok.
  21. mvp 78
    Monty is 7/170 now. FanGraphs had him projected at 5/105.
  22. mvp 78
    He was lucky with the ERA in '23, he'll likely be a little unlucky in '24.
  23. mvp 78
    @redsoxstats Speier on MLBN says Shōta Imanaga “is of considerable interest to the Red Sox.” They are fascinated with his pitch metics, track record, and obviously no draft pick for him. All reasons why I’ve been penciling him into the Sox rotation since October. He makes a lot of sense.
  24. mvp 78
    Low info Heyman: @redsoxstats Heyman in MLBN says the Sox are in on Yamamoto, Montgomery, Imanaga, Giolito. He’s guessing NY or LA for Yamamoto, but says not to rule out the Red Sox. He thinks Montgomery could get $160M (yikes). Imanaga will get more than expected. He guessed Giolito signs with the Sox.
  25. mvp 78
    '23 1.05 ERA, 2.90 xFIP There's going to be some amount of regression. Most likely, his ERA will be in the low 3's.
