    It doesn't matter who the manager is, if they make a choice, like they do dozens of times a game, and a couple don't work, they suck.

    Defense is one area you can win or lose games over. Sure, other areas are more important, but that does not render defense meaningless or something that should be ignored.
  3. moonslav59
    The past is the past, yet you brought up that long ago homer by Devers.
  4. moonslav59
    You really go hard into the recency effect.
  5. moonslav59
    That is what it might take to get a guy like Peralta. 3 years left and he's 27. Maybe try to lock him up for 3-4 more. He might take an extension, if you kick up his pay in the next 3 years. He only makes: 24:$5.5M 25:$8M club option ($1.5M buyout) 26:$8M club option (no buyout) That is a very team friendly contract that allows us to spend heavily on a FA pitcher like Yamamoto and have money left over for other needs or even a 3rd SP. I'd seriously consider a deal like this, despite thinking very highly of Mayer and Rafaela. We need a top pitcher..

    Greenville Drive wins A+ championship! Kristian Campbell was the hero, again. He went 3-4 with an HR and 3RBI in the 7-3 win. Castro went 2-4 w BB. Rosario homered. Rogers started and went 3IP 1 ER. Penrod went 5 IP 2 ER (1BB and 7Ks) The staff combined for 14Ks and just 3BB and 6 hits allowed. Congrats! WOO lost 4-3 as Joely blew the save and Garza got the loss. Scott homered (.822 OPS) Rosier went 2-5 (up to .895, now.) EValdez walked twice (.864)
  7. moonslav59
    Yes, he's not done a thing in between. Geeesh!
  8. moonslav59
    3 runs on 4 hits. Am I watching the right game?
  9. moonslav59
    We could offer Houck and or Whitlock, plus others.
  10. moonslav59
    Book it: Burnes or Woodruff will be traded, this winter- maybe not for prospects, but maybe so. Both could well be traded, as well.
  11. moonslav59
    True dat!
  12. moonslav59
    The rotation beats it out, in my book.
  13. moonslav59
    Not getting Iggy seemed weird. I wonder, if he left on bad terms, for some reason, after that rental season in 2021.
  14. moonslav59
    The other side of the hear and now is to play the kids and get a look at the future.
  15. moonslav59
    Yes, many of us were for signing Andrus, right up to his signing. It seems weird Simmons was not given a shot, but maybe GMs know more than us. In season moves are harder.
  16. moonslav59
    Indeed. The problem with Devers' D is his arm not glove or range. I think he'd be better than "fine" at 1B, in a very short time.
  17. moonslav59
    Yes, that was my point. We got pretty lucky with Reyes. Iggy was added by someone, around that time, but it is extremely rare when a solid player is traded in May or June, yet the same people keep saying, we should have/could have traded for one. (Then, who do we give up?) I do respect the idea of "trying," but for all we know, Bloom tried his ass off, but nobody wanted to trade their SS.
  18. moonslav59
    I wasn't really saying the deal had to hinge on an extension or two, but would you like the deal, if we did get one or two to extend? To me, I don't give up Mayer, unless I get 3+ years of an ace or 4+ of a near ace.
  19. moonslav59
    Indeed, and we still had JBJ and a decent fielding 1Bman.
  20. moonslav59
    BTV accepted this trade for two SP'ers with just 1 more year of team control: Burnes & Woodruff for Mayer, Drohan & Perales If both agreed to reasonable extension, do you pull the trigger? It also accepted this deal: Duran, Yorke and Drohan for just Burnes.
  21. moonslav59
    We also lose Turner ($10.8M), along with Kluber(10), Paxton (4), Duvall (7)and Mondesi (3). It won't be easy replacing Turner and Duvall's offense, and the rb raises and Devers' raise will eat into this money "saved." It's going to take more money spent than just what we "saved" by losing these guys. I'm not making any prediction on where our winter spending budget might be.

  23. moonslav59
    Looks like it's all about the here and now, tonight.
  24. moonslav59
    True, but right now, we have some of the worst corner IF'ers in MLB on D. It's not just the metrics that show it. Eye test, too.
  25. moonslav59
    I'd trade Yoshi, too. If we did, JT would be high on my list, too. Maybe he and Duvall.
