I don't think it's a pipe dream. We've got the money. You don't think Benintendi plus Groome and something else would get it done? It'd be an overpay on our part, that's the problem.
-
If Ben did in fact have a '5 year plan', they sure as heck spent a lot on Pablo/Hanley/Porcello/Castillo, all on deals that were potentially at least 5 years long.
-
It's not exactly a red herring if we assume that signing both JDM and Hosmer would put us in cap hell again.
-
The day that really sunk Ben was the day they signed Pablo and Hanley. And if Ben was truly opposed to those signings he should have said so. It might have cost him his job, but it would have shown everyone who he really was. Instead he was silent. Ben also appeared to support the way the Lester negotiations were handled. That didn't make him look good either.
-
Wouldn't that mean he'll be pretty easy to trade to the Dodgers?
-
Good post Dojji.
-
It looks like Martinez and Hosmer will be roughly the same price.
-
As a Sox fan I hate to compliment Yankee players but I like Tanaka, he seems like a cool guy. And it was very impressive the way he bounced back this year.
-
Our monkey beat the other 28 monkeys to the punch, so he gets bananas for that.
-
The fact is that none of the other 28 GM's who could have potentially made a trade for Sale did so.
-
Ben actually did trade a player for Farrell...
-
Yep, it's every bit as funny as basement benny.
-
Oh well, Arizona did well this year and I don't think there were any stories about Larussa interfering with Lovullo. That's my Pollyanna take on the matter.
-
Why not re-sign Sabathia?
-
The Cardinals have a prospect named J. D. Murders.
-
Correct me if I'm wrong Kimmi, but I believe the 2017 team had a higher WAR from DD acquisitions than it did from Ben acquisitions. Unless you're giving Ben credit for players like Mookie because he retained them. But in that case DD would also get credit.
-
At the very least I think DD deserves some credit for the Cora hiring. Cora was the guy some people here had at the top of their list, and DD moved in to get him swiftly and decisively.
-
Randy Johnson had one of the great lines I've ever heard. For some reason it was on the subject what you would do if someone breaks into your house. He said 'I've got a box of baseballs in the basement, and I'd be coming up throwing.' I can't help picturing this.
-
Houston does deserve it, there's no question about that. I really Cleveland was the best team going into the playoffs, but crazy s*** happens...who would have thought Kluber would pitch so badly?
-
A reference to Ms. Upton I'm quite sure.
-
It was a very fortunate salary dump, no question. I'm sure DD wishes the same.
-
Tolerate is an interesting word. In one of the more extreme definitions, if something didn't kill you, you tolerated it.
-
I think it was Howard Cosell who first called him that.
-
Yep, that was him.
-
Good for Reddick, absolutely.
