    Well, in a perfect world you might keep a couple of them as back-end-of-pen fodder.
  2. Bellhorn04
    Sweet.
  3. Bellhorn04
    Yes, I'm just saying that a free agent contract with a player opt-out is even worse than one without an opt-out.
  4. Bellhorn04
    He opted out of his contract with the Dodgers before signing with the Red Sox. But he lived up to his contract with us for the most part.
  5. Bellhorn04
    But then it'll be even harder to manage your payroll. There's no perfect solution.
  6. Bellhorn04
    The Yanks had a chance to let Sabathia go after 3 good years, but they blew it and re-upped him. But it's hard to let a guy go who's been your ace. If an opt-out works in favor of the team, it's strictly by luck.
  7. Bellhorn04
    In theory, the opt-out could work in the team's favor. In reality, has it ever done so?
  8. Bellhorn04
    I doubt he was the only pitcher in the HOF who doctored the baseball, though.
  9. Bellhorn04
    True. And Xander's deal was a very reasonable one. It would have a great one if not for the darn opt-out. Hate those things.

    It's the way the arb system is now. JBJ got a raise for 2020 even though his 2019 season was worse than his 2018 season. You only get good young players cheap for 4 seasons at the most now. The fact that E-Rod didn't play shouldn't have any bearing, though. Not his fault he got the plague.
  11. Bellhorn04
    Extend the man!
  12. Bellhorn04
    For some strange reason this discussion is giving me a craving for breaded chicken strips.
  13. Bellhorn04
    I'll assume that he it was deliberate and offer my own speculations: 1) The temptation is too difficult to resist; and 2) He may have been under the belief that it was something not detectable, or it was masked or whatever.

    Even more recent-Bryce Harper. Baseball Trade Values has his contract underwater by 92.9 million.
  15. Bellhorn04
    He was on target for a 60-70 fWAR career before the injury, which would have given him a good shot.
  16. Bellhorn04
    The injury ruined his chances. Thanks Manny.
  17. Bellhorn04
    It was rumored that the reason the Yanks were willing to let him go was because of PED concerns. His whole career might be phony.
  18. Bellhorn04
    I think I would.
  19. Bellhorn04
    Yes, he's always known how to Enhance his Performance.
  20. Bellhorn04
    Nice trade by the loser Mets.
  21. Bellhorn04
    Having Fun with the Fungibles.
  22. Bellhorn04
    Devers's streakiness is a better brand of streakiness.
  23. Bellhorn04
    My whole problem is that the projection seems to be based on a nice stretch of 38 games. His larger sample 2019 season was at replacement level value. And that 38 game sample was skewed by a 12 game hot start. In his last 26 games he OPS'd .748. Fool's gold if ever I've seen it.
  24. Bellhorn04
    I don't get how Moore can have such a high projected WAR based on one good little chunk of games.
  25. Bellhorn04
    (Sarcasm alert) Yeah, just like Cora didn't get the 2019 pitching staff ready. But seriously, Roenicke had everything going against him. It was a virtual tank job by the team. Out of the 3 you named, the only one I can see that Roenicke might have done better with was Devers.
