If Bailey turns back the clock on his second tour of duty, this will be a huge deal for the dodgers. Added bonus for the reds is they are in the hook for one year on the puig and Kemp deals, I think.
-
I still think buchholz could be a great reliever for us.
-
Yo can never have enough depth. Plus this signing does not prohibit us from bringing back kimbrel!
-
Wasn’t rameriez hot for a couple of months in Seattle this past season, as a starter?
-
Any time you can add depth, it is a good thing. Looking for the next brassier!
-
so in summary. We give the highest salary of any team in the league and The highest paid minor leaguer in history! At least we are consistent!
-
Did Ben sign Hanley and Pablo or was larry the driving force behind the signings? My money is on Larry!
-
So would we rather have the ring and 43rd pick in th draft or the 33rd pick in the draft and an extra 477k of pool money. Let’s face it, we plowed all our chips into the middle of the table and we won. Big time! Now we leave the house a little tip as we head to the crazy horse 2 for some well deserved fun and games until it’s time to sit back down at the table and do it all over again! This was an incredibly exciting season and such a joy to witness first hand. A couple years ago we were at the nadir, now we are at the pinnacle, why sweat the small stuff!

Pitchers who try to throw through discomfort or tightness in their shoulder, usually see their walk rate spike. We should know by the end of April, if he has the early warning signs.
-
After watching Hernandez throw in the Arizona league, I am convinced he could be a valuable piece of our bullpen. Great arm action. Two close to plus pitches.
-
Kimbrel is asking for 6 years? Who would do that?
-
There is no doubt in my mind that sale’s shoulder issue will resurface in 2019. He looked unbelievable in his return versus Baltimore and then goes back in the dl. Something in that shoulder might be torn. But I hope I am wrong and sale has a great walk year.
-
Wasn’t the bullpen the Achilles heel of dombrowski’s Detroit teams?
-
Anytime we can add depth, it is a good move!
-
Can benintendi get on base enough, to make this switch work? Too early to tell, but it would be nice to see benintendi have a break out year.
-
Thornburg should have this offseason to work out instead of rehab. Theoretically, he should pitch much better in year two because of this. The question is, can he get close to the pitcher he was in Milwaukee this year?
-
Don’t pitchers go to arlington to die? That place just seems to eats up mediocre pitching!
-
Has there been any update in nunez’s Knee? Did he have surgery?
-
Yes, I agree, Cora seems to really like guys who are good in the club house and can contribute on the field. If we can stomach the roller coaster ride Kelly will endure during the regular season, this could be an important resigning.
-
Doesn’t desperate Dave prefer power relievers to soft tossers? I actually happen to agree with Dave on power relievers.
-
That would be really interesting. Is there a lefty telling ever that we would take with pick 30 in the ete 5 draft? Or maybe a utility infielder?
-
Really hard to think about us signing Ottavino after watching him pitch two years ago. He was serving up more meatballs than the Olive Garden. It was uglier than a strienbrenner family reunion! Our future closer and 8th inning guys are currently in our system. His names are Houck and Feltman. Throw in Hernandez and lakins and we got the makings of a killer pen!
-
Looks like we tried to sneak him through waivers but got busted!
-
I think the biggest problem with buchholz is durability, he just is not big and strong enough to pitch 200 innings. As he tires, his mechanics fail and the bottom falls out. As a reliever, pitching 70 to 80 innings a year, he could be killer, because his stuff can be above average.
-
The more depth the better. I don’t think we are done being tortured by sale’s shoulder. I think 32 games started is extremely aggressive for sale for 2019.
