    So, Marwin before Arroyo? Bummer. Brasier is close?
  2. moonslav59
    With the 27th man rule, it makes more sense. Workman is on his 10th life, now.
  3. moonslav59
    THe need for TJS will likely come way after his control years run out.
  4. moonslav59
    Well, it's hard to know what prices will be, this winter, and counting inflation...

    Who wants Richards and or Perez (as long as we pay a sizable chunk of their deal? Mets have 5 pitchers on the 60 day IL and 1 on the 10 day. Phillies have Eflin on the IL and their bottom 3 starters are: Velazquez 5.54/1.431, M Moore 6.46/1.652, C Anderson 6.98/1.550. Braves have 4 guys on the IL and some sketchy starters. Dodgers need starters, but they won't go that low. The A's just added Jesus Luzardo 6.87/1.632. The Mariners might see an upgrade, since they have 2 guys over 5.48.

    Why does Workman have 9 lives? I know he has no options, but sending Houck down is highly questionable.
  7. moonslav59
    Houck seems better suited for relief and long relief. I don't disagree, but Pivetta has earned another start or two.
  8. moonslav59
    Breaking news?
  9. moonslav59
    Have you seen some of these contender's 4 and 5 starters? Yes, Perez and Richards haved sucked recently, but theirs have sucked all year and longer, and most GMs don't look at just your recent 6-8 starts to definitively value anybody. Then, there are GMs and organizations who think they see a tweak they can make to a pitcher to improve them. I'm talking about paying maybe all but a bit more than minimum wage to the other team. You do know we signed Richards for $10M after not showing he was healthy for like 6 years. Now he's healthy. We signed Perez to $6M after some pretty awful numbers in 2020. It's not like GMs don't ever add marginally better players. I'm not looking for anything in return. We could even do an Ottavinoe type trade or two to lessen the amount of money we'd pay: Richards and Rosario for $2M or less in salary relief. Perez, Wilson and Potts for $1.5M or less in salary relief.

    At his age, I'm not sure being a 4 win player 2 years ago matters all that much. I do think he might do better than his 20-21 numbers, but there is probably a better chance he continues decline. Now, we'd have him for 2 months, so no decline should be that quick. He turns 32 in 10 days.
  11. moonslav59
    If we pay most of their contracts, and teams will take them both.
  12. moonslav59
    Verlander and Greinke might just get 1-2 years not 3.
  13. moonslav59
    True but it won't be $32M x 3, either.
  14. moonslav59
    IMO, we should be much better, next year, especially if we go over the tax line by a lot.
  15. moonslav59
    Sell: Trade Richards and Perez to save money, not for any return they might get. Pay some of their contracts. Buy: Trade for a better SPer than the 2 we trade away and maybe a RPer and or 1Bman. Try to avoid getting 2-3 rentals. Call it a day.
  16. moonslav59
    Exactly. Scherzer replaces Richards. Sale replaces Perez.
  17. moonslav59
    I’m hoping the Yanks go all out, seriously! I’m watching them more than what the Sox do.
  18. moonslav59
    We may see Perez sent to the pen later. Eovaldi Sale ERod Trade Pivetta Houck Perez Richards
  19. moonslav59
    His career BB/9 is 2.4. It’s 2.1, this year, but I know control means a different thing to you.
  20. moonslav59
    I’d prefer An older pitcher for 2-3 years than redoing a Price type deal. We could just wait until winter and sign Greinke, Verlander or Scherzer.
  21. moonslav59
    They will spend, spend, spend, again.
  22. moonslav59
    Ditto, here.
  23. moonslav59
    Berrios has 1.3 years of control. (I thought it was longer.) He has a 3.76 ERA over the last 5 years. (116 ERA+) 9.1 K/9 2.7 BB/9 3.48, this year/ 1.044 WHIP (.641 OPS Against)
  24. moonslav59
    Except Mrs. MVP.
  25. moonslav59
    I'd give Casas or Downs + Groome.
