Wouldn't just getting a 1 year SS be easier/better?
-
Maybe a more realistic FUBAR would be bWAR+fWAR/2.
-
We've gone through this. Story was not injured in SEP. He didn't even know he was hurt, until he started getting throwing in December. If they thought he should have had surgery before he felt pain, then they should have done it when they signed him or not signed him at all.
-
Not all over again.
-
That may end up being true over the next 3 years.
-
It's not going to be about AAV for 12 years. It will be more than $450M/14- more likely $465M/15 or more.
-
Why? So he can sign another contract at 36 or 37? I think he'll want a 14 year deal for $450M+.
-
No, you got it wrong. Bloom convinced JH & Co. that D & D were better than Bogey, Vaz, Nate and Wacha.
-
No, but you get rid of players with less promise, first. I'd rather keep D & D over Braier and Ort, but that might be the whole list. Dalbec has actually had 2 pretty long stretches of hitting very well, one hitting okay and 2 really bad. I'd give him another year in AAA. He has options remaining. Duran has options, too, but he needs to really impress me, in AAA, to feel he should get another look-see on the big club. They both may be gone by opening day.
-
Is this one of those "economical posts."
-
About in line with projections on MLBTR 5.5 Dugo 5.3 Pivetta 3.0 Arroyo 2.5 Brasier 2.1 McGuire
-
Low leverage and 2-3 Innings (once through the line-up)
-
On D, I think McGuire is fine.
-
No doubt at all. With so many SSs on the trade block and Iggy & Andrus out there as free agents, there will be no excuses.
-
I'll take all of these guys over Brasier, right now, in the pen over Brasier. Some are close calls, granted, and all have options, making it easier to move 'em around, if needed. Would you place Kelly & Crawford above Brasier, if it came to choosing one?
-
Are you certain Dugo is the starting RF'er?
-
I don't like this, but it's better than Duran starting anywhere. I'd actually prefer Dugo in RF and Ref in CF, if forced to choose. The question was, are we certain Dugo is our starting RF'er?
-
Yes, no more lies!
-
Indeed. I have very little hope for Duran, but he has options left and has some good offensive numbers in the minors that make it okay for me to think he can be allowed one more season to show some improvement or be let go.
-
So far, yes, and a big one! All of the biggest contracts, except Sale's contract are on Bloom, now. 29.1 x 10 Devers 25.6 x 2 Sale 18.0 x 5 Yoshida 16.0 x 2 Jansen 10.9 x 2 Turner (including option) 10.0 x 1 Kike 10.0 x 1 Kluber (+ option) 9.38 x 1 Barnes (+ option) 7.50 x 2 Martin Also, we are seeing more deals longer than 1 year than any other season under Bloom.
-
Well, we can pretty sure 2-3 of these guys start the year on the IL, so maybe Brasier is not keeping anyone too promising down: Sale Paxton Taylor We also know all the more deserving pitchers I mentioned will get ample opportunities to prove they deserve and can keep a slot, once they earn one, so in that sense, it matters little. I guess I'm just antsy about giving these younger guys as chance right out of the gate. No real biggie.
-
We know we will be adding 1-2 middle infielders by opening day.
-
This would keep Duran on the bench, too: SS: Kike 2B: Arroyo CF: Refsnyder
-
That's what a limited spending budget and a farm that produces just Houck from mid 2017 to mid 2022 will do.
-
It would not be an issue for me, if he had options and was on the 40. He's interchangeable, but on the 26 forces Mills, kelly, German, Crawford, Wink, Mata, Walter, Murphy and others to AAA, when maybe all are better. True, it's not a real big deal, but what else can we talk about?
