    1.) Houck 2.) crochet 3.) buelher 4.) bello 5.) Crawford or giolito (when he is healthy.) I think bres-slow has improved the rotation and the depth! Is this a playoff rotation?
  2. Larry Cook
    I really like this signing! If he is healthy! I commend bres-slow on the signing. No club or player option! A true prove it deal.
  3. Larry Cook
    Bres-slow should be fired if he put an offer on the table for pivetta!!!!
  4. Larry Cook
    Is he their version of holt??? Isn’t this the third time he has gone to them???
  5. Larry Cook
    Have we fired the idiot who thought sims and Garcia would be quality trade deadline acquisitions?????
  6. Larry Cook
    Last year our LHP depth chart was pathetic!!! their choice of help in the bullpen is very scary, but at least they are building up the depth
  7. Larry Cook
    If ownership was serious about competing, we should have beaten the Yankees out for fried!!!!!

    Assuming yoshida starts the year on the DL! then devers with the bad shoulders could start the year as the DH! so our infield defense to start the year is casas at 1st. Hamilton/Gonzalez at 2nd, story at SS, and Bergman (if we sign him) at 3rd! Only 1st base is a dumpster fire defensively! about 30 games into the season, story breaks down faster and more thoroughly than a 1978 ford pinto and goes on season ending DL, and devers announces he is healthy to play the field! Our new infield defense is casas at 1st base, Bergman (if he signs) at 2nd base, Hamilton/gonzalez/rafeala at SS and devers at 3rd base!!! Only 2nd base could potentially not be a total dumpster fire defensively!!!!!!? This is why Campbell and Mayer need to be ready quickly in 2025!

    But the last two years have shown that we need depth in the bullpen over the course of the 162 game season
  10. Larry Cook
    Kind of strange that we would weaken our bullpen depth, which is not very deep, to add a pitcher that likely will not contribute until 2026?
  11. Larry Cook
    Good signing for Houston.
  12. Larry Cook
    Shockingly, pivetta is still available!!!
  13. Larry Cook
    Is bres-slow secretly playing Seattle and Pittsburgh against each other to try and pry the best young starting pitcher he can away from them??? I think a lot of people here are too quick to discount the young trade talent that we have to offer in trades.
  14. Larry Cook
    And why are we interested in Castillo??? He does not fit our profile at all
  15. Larry Cook
    I like the Sandoval signing! It sounds like we overpaid because somebody else was bidding against us!! look at the bright side, bres-slow finally won a bidding war!!!!!!!
  16. Larry Cook
    Isn’t there a deferral part of arenado’s contract that whoever gets stuck with him at the expiration of the contract has to pay????
  17. Larry Cook
    Have you ever worked on the street??? The thrill of the kill is what these guys live for!!!!?

    Yoshida and a bag of cash for Montgomery. 1.) Montgomery gets a year to prove it. 2.) we get a year to sharpen up dobbins!!!!! 3.) Arizona gets nothing, but the owner is free of Montgomery
  19. Larry Cook
    Whatever it takes, he would do it.
  20. Larry Cook
    Baltimore with O’Neil and sugano! Kind of different for them
  21. Larry Cook
    Cohen is a Mets zealot! We are not outbidding him
  22. Larry Cook
    The deep end of the pool has huge players in it! You are not going to outspend them! We did an amazing job of helping run up the price tag this year! No shame on being outspent by cohen!!!! at Cristie’s auction house a few years ago, cohen outspent everybody for a copy of “the scream” by munck! The guys he beat for that painting were probably pissed, but I doubt they belly ached about it forever! we tried hard this year, but the deeper pockets will always win!
  23. Larry Cook
    As of December 15th our lineup is better than 2024 because: 1.) crochet is better than pivetta! 2.) story and casas should be healthy. 3.) Valdez is gone. 4.) the Yankee catcher or gaspar should be better than McGuire or Jansen As of December 15th our lineup is worse than 2024 because: 1.) the bullpen is a mess. Did I miss anything significant?
  24. Larry Cook
    Outbidding the Mets, Yankees and dodgers is near impossible! In addition to that, desperate Dave decimated the baseball analytics department I do not blame ownership for experimenting with different methods of team building!!!
  25. Larry Cook
    I agree! Projecting the 13 pitchers is impossible even after training camp starts!!! to me the theme the last two years has been. Poor starting starting burns out the bullpen by July every year!! The goal for 2025 pitching should be 1.) improve the top of the rotation. 2.) build a deeper bullpen or more arms that can go multiple innings!!!
