    I should point out I’d still pull Giolito from the start today and instead start Payton Tolle. Not trying to lose, but setting up the rotation for the postseason is a consideration as well…

    No. Houston offered him one last year…

    But don’t you think MLB CBOs are also familiar with Bregman and feel the same? And that his agent - While not allowed to actually talk to those CBOs - is aware of this? That’s why I think he stays. I’m not sure many teams are in on him as a 5 year solution…

    It was Roman Anthony…

    Hamilton does become slightly less appealing because there are no ghost runners in the postseason aka fewer pinch running opportunities. There are pros and cons with him over Sogard. I could see it go either way.

    If you play a game, you play to win.

    Who? Ken Harrelson?

    Casas or Yoshida at DH. Yoshida does have options, which makes for potential depth. (Reality check - Casas will be at 1b with Lowe non-tendered. Makes me sad.) Per BTV, Duran straight up for Marte works. For Abreu, I had to add K Campbell and Paez. I go Duran here as I am not so quick to give up on Campbell. Other BTV-acceptable trade I like (but other teams might not) include Jared Hicks to Atlanta for C Sean Murphy (actually not acceptable but favors Atlanta) and OF Jhostnyxon Garcia to Cleveland for RHRP Emmanuel Clase. Build that bullpen!

    Especially since he lives in a fantasy world where the GMs only job is to improve the team at the deadline…

    Ryan has been horrible since the trade deadline. 20 starts, 51 IP, 5.05 ERA. Sometimes the best trades are the ones you don’t make..

    No postseason since 2014, which is a long time for a team thats had 4 MVP’s since then. But that’s not on Trout, who himself has 3 MVPs and 4 MVP runner-ups. How many players have 7 top two finishes in MVP voting?

    If the INF next year is 1b: Lowe 2b: Ketel Marte 3b: Mayer SS: Story UIF: Romy I’m ok with it..

    And the Nate’s - Eaton and Lowe!!
  15. notin
    Oh please. Trout has at least 3 career walk off home runs, for starters. Hard to say this kind of stuff about a player you never followed or watched…

    Bronx!! Never, never, never avoid a Sox-Yankees series (unless it’s for a bye)…

    I can speak for them. “Last from Alex was that wanted him in the OF, and wanted him fully healthy before he started working there.” That was my Alex Speier impression. Judge me on voice only and not content…

    I think a weaker year, a year older, and final number strongly influenced by injury in the second half. It’s not a great combo. It’s beneficial to Boston if he opts out. Theyre on the short list of teams that need a 3b and can meet his asking price, and they can get him back at a lower AAV. I just don’t think he is going to do them that favor…

    3.5 bWAR and a .730 OPS for the last 4 months. I know it’s influenced by injury, but I also believe that’s not exactly a selling point…

    Many metrics suggest Bichette should play Bregman’s position. Who were the third baseman on last years market that he competed with? And outside of Boston and Detroit, what is this years market for a 3b? Houston likely isnt since they traded Kyle Tucker for two third basemen last offseason. And Detroit’s best offer was rejected. Are they going to raise it with Bregman being a year older and slumping for 4 months? His agent will tell him one more year. I think he opts in…

    You’re in Virginia, where November is an extension of September. I’m in Chicago, where November is foreplay for January. And we have two teams here that play in the Workd Series once or twice each century. A November game at Wrigley might be cancelled due to Polar Vortex…

    Asking? Plenty of us. What we lacked were answers

    He couldn’t get the deal he wanted last year. Now Hes a year older coming off a weaker season. And this free agent class might not be so weak. Kyle Tucker, Kyle Schwarber and Bo Bichette make 3 pretty big headliners just on the offensive side. Throw in Dylan Cease and Framber Valdez and there are some good names available.
