  1. Of course 2020 was a cluster F. No Sale, no E-Rod, no Cora, and a pandemic-shortened season. It was a perfect year to not try very hard. We got a sweet draft pick out of it. One bad 60 game season is not a cliff, no matter how many times you say it. Rebuilding is pretty much an ongoing, necessary process now anyway. Teams don't stay the same for long.
  2. It's as if they're already counting some big moves by the Yankees.
  3. 2019 - among pre-season favorites to win it all 2020 - brutal 60 games 2021 - 6th game of ALCS That's what you're calling the "C" word and the "rebuild".
  4. Dodgers Ain't Afraid of No Tax They're re-signing Kershaw, and making a "strong push" for Freddie Freeman...
  5. Park and league adjusted stats take changes into account, because they compare to how other players did under the same conditions.
  6. How much would YOU be willing to fork out?
  7. The interesting thing will be to see if it results in significantly less K's and more balls in play.
  8. But if you sign a guy 5 minutes after the deal is announced you make it look a little obvious...
  9. Bogaerts and Devers each played about 400 minor league games before playing in the majors. Nomar only played about 200.
  10. I was thinking of that too.
  11. This Bogaerts guy has been pretty durable.
  12. Probably a ton of phone calls being made though.
  13. And it's enough for me, because I think he's a smart guy. As always, it'll be interesting to see how it plays out.
  14. Seager is a fine player, but $325 mill is absurd, especially when you factor in the health concerns.
  15. It's $20M minus the value provided by JBJ. And it's Bloom's opinion of the prospects that counts. He's supposed to be able to outperform the market when it comes to valuing prospects.
  16. So stop scratching the deceased equine's head.
  17. Well, Bloom can't use the "luxury tax issues" and "we're gonna suck this year anyway" as reasons to trade Bogey, so that makes it different from Betts.
  18. Here's an Fangraphs article on the righty shift. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/the-righty-shift-has-petered-out/
  19. I would presume so.
  20. I'll let notin handle this matter.
  21. Why do you hate the concept of buying prospects so much? Seems like you don't like building the farm so much if it might hurt the 2022-2023 teams a little. Head-scratcher. (Just being a s**t disturber, moon.)
  22. Others have explained that shifting against a righty is more hazardous because you don't want the first baseman that far off the bag. Which seems like a pretty good point...
  23. I think everybody feels the same way about all that.
  24. Correction: Cot's presently has us at 207.7 million, 22.3 million under the threshold. You have to look at the CBT numbers on the right.
