That was not the trade, but I doubt we get his for Dugo, Rafaela and Drohan, which was the offer BTV accepted.
-
Agreed. Plus, it would be via trade not mega signing for 2024, which was my point. Trading Dugo ($10M arb) and a couple prospects for Soto plus $10M cash would not cost much for '24 for a major gain on O. It's the extension that might kill us, someday.
-
Don't tell me what I'm thinking!
-
Never touched 'em. (Not my drug of choice.)
-
I thought that was the "left hand man."
-
Me, too. And I was lucky as hell, many times.
-
1. I was responding to others talking about Soto vs Tatis. 2. Soto does not need to be extended for the 2024 budget needed for pitching, and the trade I suggested included $10M fro the Padres. 3. I'd still rather have pitching than Soto, if it is an either or choice. You spoke about "another lefty," so I pointed out Soto would be replacing one lefty (Dugo) with another. He would not be adding to our LHB numbers.
-
Agreed. It's just not a major issue, anyway- even on slow times.
-
So, all who use PEDs get caught?
-
Some brilliancy is very well-hidden.
-
We know about the 2018 team and don't need reminding. Fun Fact: Did you know 5 of the top 7 batters by PAs on that 2018 team batted righty?
-
A lefty bat like is transcends all. I'll take the career .836 v LHPs over Dugo's sub .680 OPS.
-
Apparently, the old interpreter was mixing up "swing" with "take."
-
If they only had an official title "Right Hand Man."
-
So, what they are most "dumb" at is getting caught.
-
Lackey is a great example to use. His teammates spoke very highly of him, while the media blasted him for his on the field antics that made it appear like he was dissing the D behind him, when he was actually pissed st himself.
-
It looks fairer than 9 Bellos.
-
BTV accepts: Dugo, Rafaela, Drohan for Soto & $10M
-
For Yoshida? $-10-15M. Zero, at best. For Tatis? From 225 to maybe 135-150ish. (I don't think he's worth 9 Bellos, but maybe they have Bello rated too lowly.)
-
I think he has too much to learn. I'm not saying it's impossible. Certainly, he could come out of the gates doing very well, and change my opinion, but as of now, I think he needs more time. He's only 20 and played 78 games, this year and 91, last year. I don't see him getting many games at SS at the MLB level in 2024.
-
I would not give three form that list of 6, unless 2 were named: Bleis, Yorke and Houck. I might give Mayer (the could use a 13th SS) plus Bleis, Yorke and Houck. Giving up Bello seems totally counter-productive, as the rotation is our biggest need. We'd then need to sign or trade for 4 SP'ers or more. Anthony and Teel are my favorite prospects, now. I will never say "untouchable," but mt fingers are clenched around them, tightly.
-
Yes, I said may or may not be biased. We agree. Again, you repeat there are "more opinions out there," like we don't know, and by inference, you do. This whole "go to more places" rant is offbase, too. Just my biased opinion.
-
I do think their high end player values are too high. They also need to make adjustments, more often. The Yoshida value is absurd. I'm giving them the benefit of doubt, it just needs adjustment.
-
Okay. I understand. Your list was for "by the end of the year."
-
Mayer will not come close to playing the most at SS in 2024, so I would not list him. Reyes will get more time at SS than Mayer. I'm not even sure Mayer is not traded.
