    Unless they don’t want to. And all these Sandlin, Mullens, Hicks packages are not going to sway Atlanta towards selling. “Yeah! Mediocre fungible pitching prospects and a longer, more expensive contract for a worse pitcher!! How could we say no?”

    Bubic is likely, but the one year means Duran/Abreu is a lot. Maybe if the include C prospect Blake Mitchell and RHRP Lucas Erceg…

    Well, more likely signing someone like Williams might cut into the extent of the “#2” starter everyone wants. But that’s fair because he will also cut into the IP…

    If that’s your offer, your plans on where to pitch him doesn’t matter…

    It can largely only be done if you take back a (larger?) ugly deal from someone else (which is how we got Hicks) or throw in most/all of the remaining money. At that point, why? So we can sign someone preferable to a deal that turns ugly on 3 years and watch the cycle begin anew?

    You think the Sox should trade John Henry?!? Why have anyone tried that before?!
  7. notin
    Per their fans, they reset last year and will spend this year. That does sound familiar…

    It won’t be prioritized like that. Sign players when they’re willling to sign. Both Alonso and Bregman didnt Sign until late February last year. If they take that long tjis year, should Boston hold off on bullpen help and other needs until then?

    Is Atlanta even selling?
  10. notin
    In today’s bullpen-centric game, it’s a good idea to make game at most 5-6 innings long for opposing hitters…

    No one mentioned he won back-to-back MVPs in The Show. That changes everything! I had him ok mu MLB 9 Innings team, but halfway through the season his character got arrested for DUI so I had to drop him…

    I don’t mention Ozuna because he’s a DH/OF type. If he was a DH/1b, that’s different…

    I hope not. I don’t even like platooning Mayer. But a top 100 RHH prospect in a platoon? You’re better off getting some Ref/Romy LHP-hitting specialist and dealing the prospect for a need. Garcia is too good to waste on the bench or in Worcester right now. Deal him for a pitcher or an infielder….

    I’m not on board with Sale coming back, but he is one year removed from a Cy Young award and is coming off a 4 bWAR season…
  15. notin
    Do the Mets really want Alonso? They only gave him one year last year...
  16. notin
    Most people have forgotten, but Poor Richard's Almanac was the forerunner of Fangraphs...
  17. notin
    Jordan Lawlor is another option...

    I totally believe Cora wants Mayer to be platooned. It's like when Ben Franklin said "There are 3 certainties in life - death, taxes, and Alex Cora using platoons wherever possible."

    Per BTV, one year of Chris Sale costs you Jhostnyxon Garcia or Brandon Clarke. Per BTV, one year of Skubal costs you Connelly Early plus Payton Tolle (or Franklin Arias) plus Mikey Romero. Of course that price could go up depending on how much other teams are willing to go…

    Bringing back Matz and Refsnyder are two smaller ancillary moves that should happen and could both happen quickly while the bigger names sift through offers and pit teams against each other…
  21. notin
    I can understand not wanting to rely on Sale for his age 37 season. But on what planet is a pitcher with over 10 bWAR in the last 2 season NOT a #2 pitcher?
  22. notin
    Talk everywhere else is the Astros have no interest in dealing Paredes https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/11/astros-gm-no-interest-in-trading-isaac-paredes.html
  23. notin
    Because ther need offense and the guy can hit and Schwarber doesn’t play the infield?
  24. notin
    11 out of 10, according to my non-existent sources

    But I’ve already gotten Breslow and Dombrowski together to agree on a deal of Harrison for 3b Alec Bohm. I don’t know why I did that. Just bored I guess. Anyway, that means Harrison is spoken for…
