Agreed, but Bllom could have made this suggestion come true.
-
We already are, aren’t we?
-
I might rather have Paxton and Merrifield on 1 year deals.
-
Nate & Kluber or Eflin & Kluber would have been forgivable.
-
So we do t deserve a franchise under your budget.
-
Even $50 a month more can make a big difference, but for most it’s way more than that.
-
Off to Mexico for 8 days! Merry Christmas to all!
-
Commiseration does not ease my frustration.
-
It’s way more than that. You can buy a huge house for the same price as a small Cali condo. Cost of living is way lower. For many people who live pay check to pay check the difference in lifestyle is massive. Having a big house with s yard is a big plus for family life. Having some spare change to spend on non essentials, too.
-
Even so, 25 IP might be a stretch.
-
I’m not pleased with any of these guys. Campbell has a decent promise. Full throttle sham.
-
That is a long shot, but these other two may not reach 25 IP.
-
I’d say Dan Duquette had more influence than Ben & Bloom.
-
Maybe Campbell, Slaten and Mata.
-
Fake anger.
-
Many who move from CA to TX cite high taxes and cost of living as the main reason they move. It ain’t the scenery or educational system bringing them here from all over the country.
-
He’s out of your preferred budget, too. right?
-
Neither MA nor ME are in the top 10 for income tax. Both are bottom 20 in sales tax. Not sure about property tax.
-
History does repeat itself.
-
That’s the rub. It sure points to Bloom being the fall guy and Brez being the next sacrificial lamb. Maybe they are waiting for Anthony, Teel and Mayer, as well as a few other to mature and grow before some sort of splurge, but there is no way they will ever come out and say that.
-
Maybe they hope Brez can do better than Story, Yoshida, Kluber, Kike II and Richards- his 5 largest FA deals, other than Jansen.
-
It might have, if it worked. Bloom made some good lower level signings and trades, but swung and missed on almost all deals at$10M or more. Brez has to go 90% to make up for the past two winters.
-
No doubt, the winter budgets have handcuffed or GMs, but spending wisely could have helped a lot. Let’s hope Brez changes that factor, anyway.
-
Weissert has 31 IP.
-
I’m not sure the committee thing is the issue, but it might be. It’s the limits on spending on each guy and as a whole that has restricted or GMs since 2019. That’s not to say we had nothing to spend or made good choices with our biggest contracts, but it looks like Brez has his hands tied, too. Full throttle shackles!
