    It wasn't me. I just overheard it as I walked by.

    Jays talking to Framber.

    Rafaela is RH'd but not really a "bat." KC's trade value is not high enough.
  4. moonslav59
    Too funny. Where was Mayer on "their previous lists?" You can't go previous with your guys and not ours! LOL Now that's some bi-ASS
  5. moonslav59
    Ooops. Witherspoon has more value, too- just not as much.
  6. moonslav59
    They closed school on Friday for school on the following Monday just over the fear of ice. We got nothin.
  7. moonslav59
    See, it worked.
  8. moonslav59
    This winter, we saw Semien for Nimmo, but they are kinda rare.

    How about these... Abreu, Crawford & Wong for Paredes & Y Diaz or Abreu, Bello & Wong for Paredes, Diaz and King or Crawford, Sandoval, DHam for Hoerner & Amaya or Bello for Hoerner & Amaya
  10. moonslav59
    Agreed.

    And that's not factoring in the fact that Dodger pitchers get hurt even more than Astros pitchers. Projected 2026 fWAR and 2025 fWAR BOS 5.8 Crochet 5.8 3.7 Gray 3.6 3.4 Suarez 4.0 1.9 Bello 1.9 12.9 Top 3 (13.4) _________________ LAD 3.6 Yamo 5.0 2.9 Snell 1.9 2.6 Glasnow 1.6 2.3 Sheehan (2.1)/2.3 Ohtani (1.9) 9.1 Top 3 (9.0) __________________ PHI (even w/o Suarez) 4.8 Sanchez 6.4 3.5 Luzardo 5.3 3.1 Nola 0.9 2.9 Wheeler 4.0 11.4 Top 3 (15.7) _________________ DET 6.3 Skubal 6.6 2.5 Flaherty 2.5 2.2 Mize 2.4 2.0 Olsen 1.4 11.0 Top 3 (11.5)

    You must not agree with BTV: 7.8 Williamson<<< Mayer 50.9 12.7 Cijntje <<< Bello 27.1 I can't take this post seriously.

    Yes, you gotta give to get. Tolle is ML ready or close enough. The Cubs are in win now mode, so maybe Witherspoon is too far away and too speculative for their liking, but for a 1 and done player, I do think Witherspoon is fair. I'm not sure what they think of Crawford, but he's MLB ready. BTV calls it a minor overpay by the Sox: Crawford for Hoerner. Bello has much higher value on BTV (27 to 18,) so how about this: Bello (27) for Hoerner (18) + a catcher- Carson Kelly (8.5 but another one year guy) or Miguel Amaya (8.4 but 4 years.) (The Cubs have Ballesteros, who can catch, too, but he might be their DH if Suzuki isn't, or he could play 1B, but they have Busch there.) I hate giving up that much for a 1 year player, but Hoerner is the real deal, and maybe we extend him. Getting a 4 year catcher might help soften the blow, if Hoener bolts.

    Wilyer is at that perfect age (soon to be 27) and experience level (2+ years in MLB) to bust out. That's about the time when platooned players get a chance to show they can play FT, and it appears like Cora wants to give that a try. The results are unknown, but the guy has power. He has been hitting close to 28 HRs per 650, out of the gate, so I think 30+ is not unreasonable to think he might reach in 2026. He's got to GG's already, and while I'm not fan of that award, it does show he's a good defender, and we all know how difficult Fenway's RF is. He has a good arm, too. The .325 OBP is not great, but these days, it's not bad, either. He K's too much, but he's not the worst on the team, and a .791 OPS in his first 1,000 PAs in MLB is pretty damn good. He's got upside and he's pre-arb. I think we gotta keep him, and maybe that's why we haven't seen a Paredes trade, yet. Four years from age 27 to 30.

    It's just street corner talk- pay it no mind.
  16. moonslav59
    Buyer-buyer trades are more difficult and nearly impossible at deadline, but not winters. Not all winter trades are MLB players for prospects. ML'er for ML'ers are not plentiful, and some are more salary dumps than good player for good player, but they do happen. I've never said the odds are this deal gets done. I do think HOU will trade Paredes, and they are a win now team, so that does set up the situation I am suggesting. They won't trade him for prospects.
  17. moonslav59
    I'm giving them a win now return. I guess they can put Altuve in LF again.
  18. moonslav59
    The main reason I think a trade can work is that I am nearly certain IP will be traded somewhere. I'm less certain we will trade an OF'er, so that is one reason why I kinda shake my head when people act like the Sox should come down on their offer, because they are "desperate" or "more in need" of this trade. We can DH Duran over Masa. HOU is not DH'ing Paredes over Yordan.
  19. moonslav59
    News out of STL: Bloom is seeking an OF'er! Too bad we let Franchy go- maybe we could have gotten Wynn for him!
  20. moonslav59
    They want you to think they are not in the know.
  21. moonslav59
    There is talk about changing the name from "Pandora's Box" to Fred's Box.
  22. moonslav59
    I think we can add him and not go over line 3. JH should be okay with that. There’s also a 2027 club option on the deal worth $13.35MM That's a good deal and team-friendly.
  23. moonslav59
    There have been a lot of OF'ers traded in 2 years. Maybe it's just Brez being tight or overvaluing our OF'ers. Maybe other GM are undervaluing them. Maybe they know the correct value, and we do not.
  24. moonslav59
    They tried Altuve in LF, last year and they gave up. They are NOT trading Altuve or Walker. They are not trading Pena or Correa. Paredes can play 3B or 2B, and even 1B, but I think we'd put him at 3B. Just my guess. They could put Mayer at 3B and paredes at 2B- fine with me.
  25. moonslav59
    That is normally the case, but a team like HOU wants Yordan at DH FT and has 5 infielders. They want to win, now and need an OF'er real bad- about as badly as we need a 3Bman.
