I was joking. That's how bad I think our IF can be next year with Devers at 3B, Bogey at SS, Holt at 2B and HRam at 1B.
-
I'm not saying I love the guy, but for about $6M/1, we could probably get Duda and hope HRam can play 1B. Spend the rest of the money on pitching and a 4th OF'er and wait until next year.

I hate deal like this, but once again, what other choices do we have? We can't trade the last of our prospects without risking even our staunchest plateau dwellers turning into cliff dwellers. We could try to replicate 2013, but signing players to 3 years or less, but we don't have that many open positions in our line-up, especially when Pedey returns. We need one top clean-up with power, and the FA market is limited. JD Martinez Moustakas Santana Take a flyer on... Duda Morrison Hosmer Trades? Stanton (take the full salary to lessen the return needed?) Abreu ______?
-
If Bruce is wortth $90M/5, then JD is worth $270M/5.
-
Jay Bruce reportedly seeking up to $90M/5! I almost had a half-chewed peanut come out my nose as I burst out laughing.
-
I think he will be a DD whisperer.
-
I wouldn't go that far, but I do think adding Devers to the left side defense for the full season plus having Holt & Co. at 2B, our pitchers may try to get batters to pop up. I think we went something like 22-8 in games Marrero played 8+ innings at 3B. I think we did well when Lin played there as well.
-
Make a reasonable offer to JD and go get Stanton, if Bor-A$$ says no/
-
I, for one, saw Bogey was below average before I looked at the numbers, and BTW, I've watched just about every single play of ever game for two decades. He's below average. I have no doubts whatsoever.
-
We don't need an offenseive OF'er anymore than a defesnive one. We need a 4th OF'er who can play FT, if needed.
-
There is, but we sold the farm for a window. I know what you mean: $88M/4 and $95M/5 are killing us now, and yet we look to $150M/6. It's almost as much as HRam and Pablo combined! I'm fine with going lower but not with Hosmer. Carlos Santana Jarrod Dyson CC Sabathia
-
I do not want to pay JD $200M, even if it was for 10 years, but if we miss out on JD or Stanton, I just know, in my heart of hearts, we'll end up with Hosmer. Please, NO!
-
Make 'em take Castillo and that would settle the money issue, although it would not help on the luxury tax. Taking HRam would be better, but Miami will not want him.
-
Certainly worrisome.
-
Yup.
-
He may get $150/6, but I'm guessing $140/6 or $160/7.
-
So, at best he's 22nd out of 30 on D. If that's "average" then up is down and black is white.
-
Doesn't mean he'll get it.
-
His best defensive season, by far, was 2015. Any talk of improvement afterwards is clownish babbling. His only minor improvement was from 2016 to 2017. I tried to help you save face, by mentioning that, but you made it worse by doubling down on nonsense. Typical.
-
The reason "the kid" was not brought up earlier, despite all the clamoring, was because of his poor defense. It's not a small sample size. "The kid" has been playing in professional ball for 4 years and close to 500 games. Sure, he can improve, but right now, he's close to the worst defensive 3Bman in MLB.
-
Scott Bora$$ is seeking $200M for JD Martinez. (Maybe 7-8 years?)
-
MLBTR reports... The Red Sox have announced that Dana LeVangie will become the team’s new pitching coach. Also joining the staff is Ramon Vazquez.
-
Shocking. Did anyone know he even had cancer?
