Lewis Brinson to the Astros Hanser Alberto to the Dodgers Jesse Chavez to the Cubs I have no problems passing on these players…
-
Yeah it’s not the money line..
-
The Yankees missed out on IKF, which I think was a mistake. Urshela might be the best shortstop you have, but that doesn’t mean he can handle the role for a full year. But the Yankees also missed out the entire free agent market except Correa and Story. The trade market has Elvis Andrus, overpriced but adequate. Maybe Didi Grigorius. Others available include Nick Ahmed, Kevin Newman, and maybe Nicky Lopez…

The Strahm Train is part of that same railroad company…
-
I went to high school with a guy named Cliff Yeare…
-
Expecting the Yankees to win? Sorry. Too easy…
-
Well, Davis is the one who is still here…
-
Well now it’s time to get on board the Strahm Train!!
-
Davis was worthless. But Hansel Robles had his moments…
-
Really? Unexciting journeyman, but he has been in MLB for a while now…
-
How about Matt Strahm? https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2022/03/red-sox-to-sign-matt-strahm.html

He’s on the phone with Seiya Suzuki. It’s just going slowly because Bloom doesn’t speak Japanese and Suzuki doesn’t speak English and Henry didn’t hire an interpreter. So the entire negotiation has to be done in Swahili, since neither of them speak it at all and therefore it levels the playing field…
-
Still dealing with a bout of Lockoutitis?
-
Sure the Sox could use these guys, but which one is irreplaceable?
-
And with a reputation and track record for cheating!
-
I called Bloom and he said no. But not emphatically. At least that’s what I assumed he meant with all that of his “how did you get this number?” whining. Geez…
-
The Sox didn’t dump at the deadline in 2019. They added Andrew Cashner…
-
I’m going to start an online petition to reinstate the shift…
-
I don’t think the Canadian authorities give a rat’s ass about whether or not the Jays get a competitive advantage…
-
Well you can bet in every interview he has from now on, at some point he will say “I’m the guy who recommended Garret Whitlock to Boston” Even if it’s not a relevant answer. “Can I get you some water, Bob?” “I’m the guy who recommended Garret Whitlock to Boston..”
-
Last year Bradley had his lowest career BABIP despite posting his second highest LD% in his career. That’s not easy to do. Statistically speaking, I can see the bounce back potential…
-
No one has seen Bradley swing a bat lately. There was a lockout…
-
JBJ will start in either CF or RF and bat ninth. At a minimum against RHP. It’s that simple…
-
And hiring/keeping the right people. Ultimately these moves are always the GMs call. It’s like when some didn’t think Theo should get any credit for signing Ortiz, because Manny(?) recommended. Like scouts, players (and forum posters!) also pass on tons of advice on potential moves. But it’s the GM who decides to actually make the move and it’s the GM who gets the blame if it doesn’t work out. Not the scouts. And certainly not the players. Forum posters ironically sometimes do, but only within the confines of their forum…
-
If the Sox do sign Suzuki (which is far from a guarantee), it does very likely move Kike to 2b, at least vs RHP. If you have any faith at all in Bloom knowing what he’s doing, then it should be abundantly clear that he didn’t trade a starting outfielder who hit in the heart of the order for a bench player and two middling prospects all while taking on money. Bradley will be a starter…
