    We may be able to pass them by going 2-1 vs both. A sweep or one and 2-1 vs the others gives us plus odds on passing one. I'm not getting ahead of myself. That won't be easy to do. We could go 1-5 vs the two. I wish they played each other before the final game but too bad they don't.

    Probably better Tolle than Early or Harrison on Friday.
  3. moonslav59
    You'd be the guy I'd ask about that one.
  4. moonslav59
    Early was not on the 40 on Sept 1st.

    Bad fielder? FA after 2025, this time. It's not like he has a mega contract. He's been a beast for several years. 49 HRs in '19 31, 31, 22 and 30 from "21-'24 45 this year

    Had they used a black clipboard, Jackie might have signed with the Sox.
  7. moonslav59
    When they call up Uberstine, I'll agree! 🤪

    I was all for landing a good SP'er at the deadline, and the need sure proved to be a high priority. I was hoping for Ryan or Keller, and Kelly would have been fine, but I understand and respect setting a price and not going over it. Tolle plus others for Ryan might have been too much, so I hesitate to bash a GM over deal details we don't know, and even if we did know, the results of he trade would be TBD.

    They traded for May with 3 seconds to the deadline.

    It's easy to dry coulda, shoulda, woulda on Gio by having the option triggered by 21`0 IP over two seasons and not 140 in 2025, but it is what it is. I'm not sure he comes back. Another one was letting Pivetta walk.
  11. moonslav59
    His alternative might have been Kelly and others, but the asking price drove him to May.
  12. moonslav59
    Better. Other 60 Day guys could be Hicks, Grissom or Criswell
  13. moonslav59
    Quite a major shift in such a short time. July 31: + Matz & May 8/11: Ali Sanchez off waiver (reacquired, later) 8/18: Nathaniel Lowe signed 8/21: Promoted Jh Garcia 8/29: Promoted Tolle 9/9: Promoted Early 9/10: to promote Harrison
  14. moonslav59
    Agreed, and IFA guys take several more years to shine or drift into the darkness.
  15. moonslav59
    Ah, yes 2023.
  16. moonslav59
    Brez also brought in Slaten, Lowe and draft picks we've seen or will see in the bigs, already: Early & Tolle Campbell Montgomery helped get us Crochet, so that was a double get by Brez.
  17. moonslav59
    Or, great draft picks there Brez!

    Not only did we go through years and years of few pitchers taken highly, we saw many HS players chosen over college players. The good part about that is that recently the HS and college players are all coming into their own near the same time. Casas HS '18 Yorke HS '20 (traded for Priester> traded for who we are talking about) Mayer HS '21 and E Rod HS '21 (traded for Narvaez) & Dobbins Jr in college Anthony & Romero HS '22 __________________ 2023 College: Teel (traded for Crochet), K Campbell & Early (all MLB in '25) 2024 College:, Tolle, Neely Montgomery (traded for Crochet), Aita and Clarke (JC) 2025: top 18 picks were college: Witherspoon, Phillips, Godbout, Etanson & more It's almost like they planned it this way! 😉

    LOL. VMart could play 1B, too, but Napoli did okay, too.
  20. moonslav59
    You are correct, but we do get somebody. That somebody, even if at slot might be just as good. Although not likely has highly regarded, once you get this far down, it's sort of a crap shoot. Also, if we did not get the draft pick, maybe we get better prospects.
  21. moonslav59
    Early or Clarke seems about the going rate, to me, but I'm not sure I'd say yes. I probably would, but this doesn't rise to a "firing offense," to me.
  22. moonslav59
    Yes, and Lowe was a plus.
  23. moonslav59
    I hope they can work some magic with Harrison, over the winter. SP'ers under control for 2026: Crochet Bello Tolle Dobbins Sandoval Crawford Fitts Harrison Early Criswell Perales, Uberstine, Drohan, Paez Clarke, Winclowski, Murphy, Mullins & Sandlin (RPers)
  24. moonslav59
    We had the dream of Sandoval joining the rotation in August and maybe Crawford, too, at the time of the trade. In hindsight, it looks bad, right now, but this is certainly a TBD trade to grade.
  25. moonslav59
    Maybe he made an offer for Kelly, too, but I do agree, we should have done better than M & M. The Rangers gave up Mitch Bratt, Kohl Drake & David Hagaman. Kelly had a 137 ERA+ before the trade. It's been 126 afterwards. We could have used that, for sure.
