  1. Castillo and garver for abreau, Meredith Garcia and yoshida solves a lot of problems for both teams!!!
  2. That is a quality team! The bullpen got some serious juice
  3. I imagine our baseball analytics department has profiles on all pitchers (pro and minor leagues) it will be interesting to see who bres-slow targets this offseason for the bullpen. his first signing was a bit of a head scratcher
  4. Apparently it is down to us and the Mets for Soto! The spankees have apparently dropped out
  5. The dangers of drafting high school pitchers in the first round!
  6. Improving our defense should be a consideration for 2025 roster building. we got some serious dumpster fires on the roster as it stands now.
  7. Of the 21, all but scott, Hendricks, Holmes, slaten and Whitlock are fringe type pitchers that teams try to upgrade
  8. The pirates have a lot of outstanding young arms. I have seen Ashcraft pitch and he has some decent stuff
  9. Abreau, Cespedes or Romero and yoshida for Arenado and Helsley plus cash is a sweet deal for both teams!
  10. There used to be an unwritten rule that when a pitcher exceeds his total innings pitched by X% in year one, there was regression in year 2! we could have regression from some starters
  11. well I guess we need to look for other young controllable starting pitchers that are on the market. kind of a short list
  12. I only saw crochet pitch twice this year. But the pure stuff is undeniable! Better than any starter we put in the mound in 2024!! The command and control looked really good. bres-slow has to make the call on durability!!! in today’s game, you have to give to get
  13. I agree! I did only see him pitch once. The stuff was decent and with improved command and control, he could be someone to pay attention to! that is the problem with going to see live baseball. You work out your schedule to get to the stadium on a certain date, but you never know who is going to be pitching or even worse, you get a bullpen game!!!!
  14. I think we need a number 1 and a number 2 for the rotation and two quality relievers. One lefty and one righty
  15. Rather than sign Holmes could we not try to trade for helsey???
  16. And how has signing top notch free agent pitchers worked out for us in the previous three years??? Bottom line, if you believe crochet is a number 2 starter, you will have to give to get.
  17. Core to me are players with multiple years of team control. our rotation core is Houk Bello, Crawford, criswell, Fitts and preister! The one thing that core says is no top end pitcher! It is missing a number 1 and a number 2 starter!!!!
  18. I am not a fan of crochet, but you have to give to get in this climate
  19. Rotation 1.) fried. 2.) Houk. 3.) bello. 4.) Giolito 5.) Crawford 6.) Criswell is this a playoff worthy rotation ?
  20. Abreau, cassas, Sandlin and cespedes for crochet
  21. I think slaten was an excellent addition in 2024! Let’s hope we get a left handed version of him this offseason.
