    Yes to the Red Sox, but what about the Padres?
  2. notin
    Who is?
  3. notin
    Ablist!!
  4. notin
    Not really. Myers’ had a $13.8 AAV but a $22 actual salary those last 3 years…

    They aren’t #1 in payroll even now?
  6. notin
    Absolutely. Paxton has a huge issue that makes him problematic. If he could start 25-30 games and pitch 150-160IP, he’d be a great move. But signing Paxton means you them have to sign someone to fill in for Paxton when he’s out. Who there? Maybe Keller?

    C is a passing grade. What’s the current mark?
  8. notin
    Pass if I’m the Cubs. Already have a crowded OF, including a CF prospect who has game-changing defense. And simply need team ace Justin Steele more than I need those Red Sox…

    From what I recall, SD wanted to send back Wil Myers, whose contract was just as bad as Price’s…

    Paxton doesn’t do it for me. He’s like Sale, but without the talent…

    But what about the gang at Flaherty’s? You know, the ones who yell at the TV that you need to use Jacques Jones to get Shohei Ohtani out, and not that right-handed Chris Martin? And then there’s the crowd at O’Toole’s. Buncha mean mofo’s. They’ll slit your throat for merely saying “”OPS”. And we can’t forget about the boys at Clancy’s. But dgalehouse is their ambassador…

    I’m not up in arms about it either. I never expected Ohtani or Yamamoto. Disappointed in missing Gray. Not huge on Wacha. Don’t understand the infatuation with Lugo. ERod, ok. I would have liked that reunion. But with Imanaga, Stroman and Giolito on the board, I’m not horrid by what’s left. Plus the possibility of making trades still exists. The interest in Hernandez could be a precursor for dealing an OF, for example…

    And now the Dodgers want Teoscar. You’d think with how many players that team keeps adding, that they weren’t very good last year…
  14. notin
    Because they put above average shortstops everywhere else…
  15. notin
    Not a sham. Just a Kia Sedona that we’re taking full throttle. Also this particular Sedona has no gas in the tank…
  16. notin
    Agreed. And he has a history of undervaluing himself…

    I don’t often include Bauer, but he is an option. However, as an extremely expensive (he does come across as greedy) option with more negative baggage than Jack the Ripper, he isn’t very likely. I also like Brandon Drury for 2b. Of course, the Angels have been close to full throttle than the Sox lately. I would sign Fujinami, whether you like him or not. I know the BP is crowded, but there is always room for someone who throws 100mph. If nothing else, it frees up a reliever to trade. (Jansen? Martin?)
  18. notin
    I deleted my reference. Of course your original is still out there…
  19. notin
    On any given day, it’s the Sox current payroll. Minus 10%…
  20. notin
    So DD pioneered that third option - reeling in Andrew Cashner to put the Sox over the top…
  21. notin
    Or maybe they did and Bloom had no details, possibly because there were no talks?
  22. notin
    I’d prefer Stroman and Imanaga, too. And I’m one of the few pro-Giolito posters. But all three is simply not reality. And two of them is a likely pipe dream, unless we are all completely misreading this front office. So are the Sox one SP away? And is that one SP Stroman/Giolito/Imanaga? And I’m sure if I saw your top 13 list, I’d be writing off a few names on that…
  23. notin
    Hey feel free to do better without going over the Sox budget…
  24. notin
    True. And I actually chose it without checking his IP. He does throw fairly hard, and that will get him a job. No idea where. And why do you think Winckowski didn’t throw hard? He brought gas from that pen plenty of times. (Of course comparing the velocity of a SP to a reliever often benefits the reliever.)
  25. notin
    I’m not reporting rumors. Just pitchers I find statistically interesting. These deep dives are the reality right now. Assuming we even go that far…
