  1. I'm probably just having bad flashbacks to last off-season...
  2. Not encouraging in what way - as in we snoozed on a pretty good deal?
  3. Hard not to be nervous when there are only a handful of real difference-makers.
  4. Forget about Bauer.
  5. I'm going by their messaging. It couldn't have been much clearer. Especially from the new unofficial spokesperson, Alex Cora.
  6. And we had a lot of games last year that were lost in the first few innings... Our bullpen is not that bad, and will be better if Houck gets moved from rotation to pen.
  7. Tom Werner knows fans aren't envisioning a Kia Soul.
  8. On what planet does Flaherty look like an upgrade right now?
  9. Yes, hands off Clevinger too.
  10. IIRC, the Matt Dermody Experience didn't play very well this year. Bauer would be like an early Christmas present to Shaughnessy and the gang.
  11. He had me at Flaherty.
  12. As far as "potentially disastrous moves by a new CBO", I think Bauer is right up there. Not happening, no way, no how.
  13. Quite reasonable IMHO.
  14. If Snell signs soon, presumably not with us, then we're sort of in "Waiting for Yamamoto" mode. That might not be much fun, because what are the odds we're going to outbid all the other high rollers?
  15. Stroman's talent is not in question. I won't be unhappy if we sign him.
  16. Agreed, but like I say, Wacha's AAV was 25-30% as much, that's why I got the warm and fuzzies for him.
  17. Montgomery and Gray seemed like pretty good targets, but what do I know. I'm sure our front office has it all scoped out.
  18. Whether it's fair or not, he does have the "head case" image. The short deal was good, but $25 M isn't Chump AAV.
  19. Yeah, this is the question. Are they really going to give us Bloom 2.0? If the fans and media sense that's what's going on, the backlash should be epic.
  20. He'll undoubtedly sign for more than Nola did.
  21. If that happens all that's left of the Big 5 is Yamamoto and Snell.
  22. The fascination is pretty simple - Stroman is a better pitcher than Wacha, but over the last two seasons Wacha produced similar results for a lot less money.
  23. I guess it must be said again...John Henry drew a line in the sand with Mookie. That's my feeling on what happened, anyway, and I haven't seen anything to controvert it. Even the $300 million offer is in question. Mookie said it didn't happen and invited the press to go to Bloom for the details of the negotiations.
  24. So it worked like a regular contract with no opt-out. They didn't get burned by the opt-out.
