    The fact that Brasier had a -0.1 fWAR (4.84 FIP) in 2021 didn't help.

    If they sign Schwarber, they would pretty much have to pay some luxury tax this year. They could then conceivably get back under in 2023, when JD and Price come off the books. But we don't even know what the tax thresholds and rates will be yet.
  3. Bellhorn04
    Cash out or cash in?
  4. Bellhorn04
    Up until last year with Stroman and Gausman, players accepting QO's were pretty rare. I don't think E-Rod will accept.
  5. Bellhorn04
    As for Houck, he looks like one of those new hybrid vehicles...
  6. Bellhorn04
    Bloom has said he envisions Whitlock as a starter, so it's going to be very interesting to see how they handle him next year.
  7. Bellhorn04
    You keep saying it would be crazy to pay E-Rod 18 million, and it's a 10 million raise, after a bad year et cetera. People have tried to explain the logic behind it. That E-Rod's peripherals were better than his ERA. That comparable starters like Stroman are expected to get 90 million deals and so on. But you just keep beating the dead horse. You asked earlier about whether we could spend the 18 mill better, and I said yes, that is the right question.
  8. Bellhorn04
    And Schwarber does have a higher career OPS+ than either of those two.
  9. Bellhorn04
    What other better bats than Schwarber are available?
  10. Bellhorn04
    2 for 2 for the yes men.
  11. Bellhorn04
    I'm thinking about next year. I trust Bloom to think about the beyond.
  12. Bellhorn04
    I think Old Red is about the only poster on Talksox who actually dislikes Schwarber.
  13. Bellhorn04
    Wins are wins. JDM is worth 3 wins.
  14. Bellhorn04
    Plus NFL football? I may have to make a run to the liquor store.
  15. Bellhorn04
    Knowing Bloom's patience, we probably won't find out until a little after 4 PM CT.
  16. Bellhorn04
    Yes, apparently those $1 million Whitlocks are easy pickings.
  17. Bellhorn04
    My only reason to keep Kutter Crawford would be his name. Unfortunately, that was my same reasoning with Sam Travis.
  18. Bellhorn04
    Today's the day we find out!
  19. Bellhorn04
    Nick, this sentence makes it sound like you have no clue how the MLB payroll system works. Not a good basis for discussion.
  20. Bellhorn04
    As far as I know, the answer to both questions is yes. We'll find out on the second one when the much-awaited 2021 lux tax announcement comes!
  21. Bellhorn04
    It seems like a lot of what you're calling decisions is just habitual behavior, instinctive responses. We don't make that many decisions in a day that require actual conscious thought and a choice between distinct options. I assume you're calling the choice of which shirt to wear one of those decisions. The fact is we do get do-overs on a lot of our decisions. I'm sure you've put one shirt on and then later decided to change into another shirt.

    Whether we like it or not, the game of baseball has become dominated by technology, from pitching management to defensive positioning to launch angle and exit velocity and plenty more. Technology just can't be held back, it seems.
  23. Bellhorn04
    It was just a silly joke with notin. But I also like notin's point about the sport of track. It would be absurd not to officiate that sport with the best technology available.
  24. Bellhorn04
    I do review my posts. And I just edited one up above. Seriously, Nick, you're grasping at straws here.
  25. Bellhorn04
    Actually, get rid of those damn watches too, they're technological and accurate as hell. Do it by eye, man.
