  1. I think we played worse after the all star break because our starters were not going deep enough into games and between injuries and a lack of depth, we burned up our bullpen arms. plus offensively, our youngsters crashed into the wall good days are ahead of we get 2 quality starters and 2 quality relievers.
  2. No no no!! We have add a lot more to the trade, but I think it is doable if we find the right pieces
  3. I think bres-slow builds bullpen depth by young unproven guys with high upside
  4. We can pay the rest to send him to San Francisco I really think birdsong might look good in a Red Sox uniform
  5. I am going to believe bres-slow when he says he is going to as aggressive as the budget allows. I expect him to add 1 established starting pitcher and a couple high upside unproven bullpen guys
  6. In today’s game, depth is more important than ever. Our pitching staff was not nearly deep enough in 2024 and our pitchers ran out of gas in the second half. the fitts, weissert, Guerrero, and so many others should be depth pieces! it is bres-slow’s job to improve the bullpen so these guys are depth pieces
  7. trade partner #3 Pittsburgh pirates the pirates offense if terrible. They have three great young pitchers on their roster and 2 more in the minors. we already did a trade with Pittsburgh for a high upside pitcher I think we can move abreau and cassas and get one of the 3 young pitchers (not named skenes) off Pittsburgh’s roster!
  8. Yoshida and a bag of cash to Arizona for Jordan Montgomery! Arizona owner wants Montgomery gone and we want yoshida moved
  9. I did not know 1978 ford pintos came with air bags???
  10. Maybe bres-slow can work a miracle deal! The giants or Mariners are the best options
  11. Is there any real correlation here??? I mean whoever caught Houck early in the year caught him when he was fresh got a huge advantage over those who caught him in the second half when he had a dead arm
  12. Because he looks good on base in a giants uniform
  13. Bres-slow is going to select someone from the rule 5 draft and give them a chance to win a spot in the bullpen.
  14. I suspect bres-slow will be looking for younger cheaper arms with more upside
  15. The crazy thing is that winkleman has amazing stuff in the system!!! But no command and control whatsoever!!!!
  16. Monegro is hard to figure! I watch him and I see a guy with stuff that should have him throwing batting practice, but then he gets in the game and somehow he just gets batters out!!!! I have no idea how he does it!!!
  17. Oddly enough, the best defensive shortstop in the system is not a draft pick, but instead it is arias
  18. We are losing 4 relievers in free agency so we need to add as much depth as possible to the bullpen
  19. Step 1 - we have to trade yoshida. Step 2 - we sign fried. Step 3 - we use whatever combination of players and prospects (excluding Anthony Campbell and teel) necessary to help Seattle improve their offense so we can pry Bryce Miller out of their control. Step 4 - open competition at all four infield positions among all infield players not included in trades with the goal of fielding the best hitting and fielding team possible.
  20. Fitts is in my small list perales is coming off ucl replacement I am not as high on Sandlin as everybody else. He throws a lot of meat balls tolle - I saw at tcu but who knows how that translates to pro ball
  21. Big 4 hitters - Anthony, Mayer, Campbell, teel Medium 4 hitters - Montgomery, Garcia, arais, cespedes Small 4 pitchers - Valera, monegro, fitts, dobbins we are so lopsided in the minor leagues
  22. Devers is a dumpster fire defensively at 3B. But does bres-slow want a full time DH???
  23. 1.) I agree completely. 2.) Mayer may be better suited at 3b according to some scouts. 3.) I agree. 4.) I agree, best man wins. 5.) cassas is a dumpster fire defensively. 6.) I would think that with the contract rafeala signed and the defense he provides, he is not the worst 9 hole hitter we have ever had. 7.) I agree teel is not ready. 8.) I think we need 2 quality starters and 2 quality relievers. Our lack of depth was exposed again in 2024.
