  1. Soto, Judge, Cole, Stanton and Rodon account for roughly $170mill. The other 35 players on their roster account got the remaining $117mill-ish…
  2. I assume that figure includes Soto to some degree…
  3. I’m surprised the Mets can’t shake that top spot, even after dumping Scherzer and Verlander…
  4. Cubs are Rangers two other obvious candidates along with the Phillies that would have interest in those two…
  5. A fastball that could get a speeding ticket, for one…
  6. Is not about Keller being the best or even one of. Just a pitcher I clearly like more than you…
  7. Yes to the Red Sox, but what about the Padres?
  8. Not really. Myers’ had a $13.8 AAV but a $22 actual salary those last 3 years…
  9. They aren’t #1 in payroll even now?
  10. 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?
  11. C is a passing grade. What’s the current mark?
  12. 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…
  13. From what I recall, SD wanted to send back Wil Myers, whose contract was just as bad as Price’s…
  14. Paxton doesn’t do it for me. He’s like Sale, but without the talent…
  15. 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…
  16. 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…
  17. 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…
  18. Because they put above average shortstops everywhere else…
  19. Not a sham. Just a Kia Sedona that we’re taking full throttle. Also this particular Sedona has no gas in the tank…
  20. Agreed. And he has a history of undervaluing himself…
  21. 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?)
  22. I deleted my reference. Of course your original is still out there…
  23. On any given day, it’s the Sox current payroll. Minus 10%…
