  1. Stories go both ways. I keep seeing CJ Abrams name on the block, but that looks like a sell high opportunity…
  2. Ummmm…”no longer with us” usually means more than a trip to the Injured List…
  3. Curtis Mead (RHH 2b/3b) - reasonable push Freddy Peralta (RHSP) - modest pickup Hunter Goodman (C/DH) - unreasonable emptying of farm
  4. If I’m Colorado, I want no part of Early and his popping elbow. But I’d be fine with Eyanson…
  5. As (I think) the first to mention Marte, bear in mind: 1. Marte is only signed for something like 4 yrs $74mill after this year, so about half the money for one less season. 2. More of Lindor’s value is tied to his defense, which is his biggest issue so far this year already.
  6. Lindor giving 15 fWAR over the next 5 years is fine, but you’re talking about ages 33-37. It’s very possible you only get 8-10 fWAR in those years, especially if injuries factor in. Money is not the issue, because Lindor would cost lesser prospects that could equalize the costs. But Lindor is getting into that age range where decline can be sudden and without warning. And then there’s the question about why are the Mets trying to move him? Cohen has a greater net worth than the bottom 10 MLB owners combined. Is their real goal strictly financial?
  7. It’s not even the money. Story’s deal is done after next year. Lindor would be around steadily aging until 2032.
  8. And we might be paying Lindor to do that for 3-5 years…

    … or until he loses, whichever comes first…
  10. Probably better off with Story. Lindor has 5 years left…

    Tracy

    Well, when you preach “pitching, defense and three-run homers,” there isn’t a lot of room for managerial decisions…
  12. I think theyre going to platoon him wuth Jahmai Jones, so as to continue that Red Sox tradition of elite left fielders - Williams to Yaz to Rice to Manny to Jarren and Jahmai. It just flows…
  13. Stalin? How old are they? I was thinking Freddie Mercury and I thought I was outdated. Is Ron Burgundy the new standard?
  14. So the Angels will listen on Neto after all. Mayer, Eyanson and Cespedes?
  15. Since the longest winning streak in team history is 15 games, 29-1 was only possible in 1946…
  16. Tracy hasn’t had any Morgan Moments. Early in that streak, Morgan pulled Mike Greenwell, who was the MVP runner-up that year (or MVP winner, non-steroid division) so sub.200 hitting Kevin Romine could pinch run for him. Romine stayed in te game and hit a 9th inning walk off home run in the 9th. Who pulls a player having an MVP-caliber season for a pinch runner before the ninth, only to insert the guy that hits the walk off? Guessing that was an MLB first…
  17. Especially considering the Sox played under .500 the rest of the way that year…
  18. I was a game short on my opening streak. I’ll take it since I didn’t look anything up…
