  1. But if Tulowitzki is available for minimu wage, it does make trading Nunez and his contract more difficult. If it does come down to needing to shed $5mill, then Dombrowski will have done a poor job anticipating the market against his budget when he exercised Nunez’ option...
  2. It would probably be easier to find a taker for Nunez if he wasn't coming off an injury-plagued season. I think I'd rather have Nunez anyway. This isn't 2014 anymore where Tulowitzki was a dominant offensive force in the game. From 2015 thru 2018, Tulowitzki has an OPS+ of 97 and Nunez has a OPS+ of 98, so this seems like a lateral move at best. Not to mention, Troy's desire to play 2B is not known, but I can believe he would prioritize an opportunity to play SS over it, even on a bad team...
  3. The Scherzer contract drew a lot of criticism, but it's worked out so far. We'll see about Corbin and Sanchez. Ultimaltely the worst this deal does is hamstring them for 2 seasons...
  4. They might struggle to get a decent prospect for Voit, whose 27 and never did anything prior to his hit month in NY
  5. The difference here is Tulowitzki can’t sign a minor league deal like Phillips did. He’s still in the middle of a Major League contract with Toronto. All he can do is decide what team is going to pay him league minimum while he collects the balance from Toronto...
  6. Actually Netflix did give Adam Sandler a contract for his next 8 movies (actually he’s made at least 3 already including an atrocity called “The Ridiculous Six”).
  7. But why would they cut Holt? He still has an option left and can be sent to Pawtucket until needed. The Sox aren’t signing Tulowitzki anyway, not as long as shortstop-bereft Pittsburgh and Detroit are in the picture....
  8. Or Pedroia goes to the DL...
  9. If that's what Anibal Sanchez is getting, the "discount closer" DD is waiting out the market for is Matt Barnes. Unless he goes all in on Jim Johnson or Brad Brach...
  10. Marcus Stroman agrees with her. Marcus Stroman may know something we don't about Manny Machado's free agency | MLB.com WWW.MLB.COM The Official Site of Major League Baseball
  11. Methinks that means Machado in pinstripes...
  12. What about Crawford?
  13. And elbow macaroni...
  14. The presence of a minimum wage Tulowitzki who can perform well reduces the likelihood of a crazy offer on Xander...
  15. According to Tim Brown and Jeff Passan from Yahoo, the Red Sox were one of the teams with a representative in attendance for Tulowitzki’s fielding and hitting audition. More surprising, according to Brown, Tulowitzki was impressive. No idea beyond maybe due diligence why the Sox chose to attend...
  16. I do imagine the Yankees are a bit reluctant to use theirshort term middle infielder to balance out their lineup. They’ll probably go for best available within their budget. And if they sign Harper instead of Machado, Beckham might be that guy...
  17. Also good, but less surprisingly so...
  18. Quit reading The Alferd Packer Cookbook!
  19. Chocolate-covered bacon in itself is surprisingly good...
  20. That feels hypocritical because Animal Crackers are excellent with whipped cream and hot fudge...
  21. It’s been explained before. The WAPM (Wildly Accurate Projection Machine) is a product of Notin Industries, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Notin TransGlobal MegaCorp (NTMC)...
  22. I find some irony in ripping Tim Beckham for not being a good fielder (despite his league average or better metrics) and then thinking Marwin Gonzalez is a good solution...
  23. That’s also how mvp eats pulled pork
  24. And that’s why I don’t trust Steamer. The WAPM has my chances at being claimed at exactly 0.0...
