Britton would be my top choice, Familia worries me.
-
One advantage they have is still a very strong farm, but there pockets will not be as deep as the Sox, No way do they resign both Cole and Verlander next offseason.
-
Lots of different ways we can go in the bullpen, some decent names out there.
-
Agree they can even out, but the goal was a title .
-
The only negative deal has been for Thornburg. Carson Smith deal hasn’t worked out but who cares it was for Wade Miley. All his other deals have basically been a net positive.
-
Thank you haven’t looked today.
-
have not seen the report he would not go beyond 2 years.
-
They didn’t get fleeced there mistake was giving up prospects for players they could have come close to replicating on the free agent market.
-
I wouldn’t say trust them but they can give us hope that our farm is on its way back.
-
Or they could have just spent the money on a very good free agent closer and second base market and saved there prospects. Horrible trade for them.
-
Believe me I understand all that, I think you are being way over dramatic. They have a window and 19 is a great year to maximize there chances. Are they going to win every year no , they may have a down year in 2021, but John Henry won’t rebuild he will retool I’m fine with that.
-
I believe we are both assuming, and if Boston and Houston are the 2 hottest teams after him that says something, both have been great at evaluating talent.
-
I respectfully disagree with you.
-
I would add Diaz, Jimenez, Decker, Howlett, and Duran to that list. We might be looking at this farm system a lot different next year.
-
The Mets have always been very interesting, and with there new GM/agent I don’t think it will change. Might have another Arizona situation with Dave Stewart and Tony Larussa.
-
not signing him might also be minimizing 2020 and beyond. Will be hard to get someone with his potential at the years and rate he is going to get.
-
Eovaldi was very good in the regular season also, has great stuff, and probably could be had on a very reasonable contract.
-
Eovaldi will be cheaper with what I believe to be a greater upside. Can use him in numerous roles. Don’t get me wrong I want Porcello back also, but want to maximize our chances for 2019.
-
True but I’m going to guess we lose one no matter what Evoldai can be a cheaper more affordable version of Porcello. Will give them a very strong starting 5 this year and buy them another year to replace Porcello for 2020.
-
Easy to take a flier on Thornburg in hopes he regains his form. Not a guaranteed contract so can always cut him loose in the spring.
-
I haven’t posted in awhile. What a great year we had. My number one priority this off-season is Evoldai, he makes the rotation elite and helps if we lose Sale or Porcello after 19. I’m not that concerned with the bullpen, maybe a Robertson or Ottavino and a lesser name. Like our depth in the minors to contribute.
-
I'm guessing cost will be low, supply is much higher then demand for third basemen in this years market.
-
Frazier is walking a lot this year, and is good at third. If the cost is not high I would definitely trade for him.
-
I'm not sure how much you would have to give up, he's a rental who's hitting 217. How many contenders are looking for a third basemen. I was thinking along the lines of an Ockimey or Dalbec, plus one of our many fungible minor league relievers.
-
I'm fine with a Frazier trade but should include no top prospects. Definitely not Devers, Chavis, Groome or Mata.
