    Um, that plus very very solid career numbers? Reg season 713.2 IP 3.27 ERA 1.09 WHIP Postseason 94.2 IP 3.04 ERA 1.15 WHIP Let's be clear, the dude can pitch. We're not talking about a Garrett Richards type here.

    Yeah, he's not going to get any younger or faster, and now he'll be post-surgery. In reality he's likely to get worse.
  3. Bellhorn04
    Good trade for the Yanks, I'd say.
  4. Bellhorn04
    I just think it's a dumb-looking word. And it has Reese McGuire connotations. Whereas laterality is actually kind of musical...
  5. Bellhorn04
    His WAR is also negatively impacted by his baserunning.
  6. Bellhorn04
    And his fWARs are lower. That's what I'm saying. Thinking he's going to get better, especially after surgery, is wishcasting.

    Personally I think Buehler would be worth a shot, "but only of course if it's not an exorbitant price tag", adds Cap'n Obvious. Upside is upside, man. And he has some. A lot of people said Dombrowski gave that $68 million extension to Eovaldi based on one nice playoff run. But I think time has validated that Eovaldi is a near-elite talent and great character guy with obvious injury concerns, who is going to end up with a pretty nice major league resume. .

    The adjustments and injuries are understandable, but those are only part of his package of issues. Now the fact that we have 2 other left-handed DH types who are better hitters makes Yoshida virtually useless. If they trade Casas that might change the outlook a little. As always, I'm just jabbering away here, I don't know anything everyone else doesn't know too. 😁

    He has a ceiling of 1.5 WAR. The numbers bear that out. I'm not ripping him just for the sake of it. He's a below average player and a roster clog. Sucks but that's the way it is.
  10. Bellhorn04
    In 2023 he got tired/had adjustment issues. In 2024 he had injury issues/couldn't hit lefties. Just an egregiously misguided signing.
  11. Bellhorn04
    OK, I've made a final decision on something. I'm going with laterality.
  12. Bellhorn04
    Well, the good news is they can just outright release him any time...
  13. Bellhorn04
    He hit well in July and August. The rest of the year he stunk. He won't be missed.
  14. Bellhorn04
    And if they don't trade Casas we're going to be stuck with bad defense at 1B and 3B for another season. Holding onto Yoshida any longer feels like postponing the inevitable.
  15. Bellhorn04
    Right, and that's why Breslow should be commended for doing something bold here. I think he gets it.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Plus if Pitt intends to continue as a viable baseball franchise, they shouldn't be trading Skenes at all, needless to say.
  17. Bellhorn04
    Extend him right away or wait until he proves himself a little more? It's a classic baseball economic dilemma.
  18. Bellhorn04
    And Skenes would empty the cupboard. Let's back to some free agent pitcher talk here!
  19. Bellhorn04
    We have 3 left-handed DH types in Devers, Casas and Yoshida. It's not ideal. This was one of the dumbest signings ever.
  20. Bellhorn04
    desperate larry! Sorry, Larry, but sometimes you reap what you sow, man. 😉
  21. Bellhorn04
    Not sure we ever found out who San Diego was bidding against there. We know it wasn't the Red Sox.
  22. Bellhorn04
    D is probably the closest. I would guess they went into it with a predetermined limit which appears to have been around $700.
  23. Bellhorn04
    As I said earlier, in September Crochet pitched 17.1 innings, Kd 29 and walked 2. That's some dealin', folks.
  24. Bellhorn04
    He's a special case though. The way I read it, the biggest possible money difference between any two teams trying to sign him is $2.4 million.
  25. Bellhorn04
    It's not going to be a lot of money in any case. The consensus is he'll sign where he wants to play.
