  1. Maybe the blue jays would like to trade some of their pitchers for some quality prospects??
  2. I think the guys from the athletic are more concerned with shock value and getting subscriptions than actually doing good investigative journalism they put two and two together and get 7
  3. If we got any of the following: the 2025 draft is going to be incredible : OF - jace laviolette of Texas a&m OF - cam cannevella of Clemson pitcher - Jamie Arnold of FSU
  4. Perales, blaze and Elmer
  5. MLB just did their end of season top 100 and we got 3 of the top 10! And 4 of the top 25! but I spent some time reading the profile they wrote on Mayer. Basically they said he has instincts and a good first step, but is slow and some scouts think he would be better off at 3rd base!! I know Mayer is not ready for the major leagues yet, but at some point in 2025, if he stays healthy, Mayer will be ready.
  6. The athletic recommends prying the cardinals closer away for the prospects that hang’em Chaim helped acquire
  7. Rather than sign a veteran Japanese pitcher with declining velocity, we need to call our friends in Pittsburgh. They have 2 pitching prospects and we should investigate prying one of them away from Pittsburgh. (Braxton Ashcraft and bubba chandler) Adding either of them is only going to cost us a few prospects and/or expendable major leaguers and bring a better quality pitcher into the organization than we currently have in the system
  8. Is it possible to be more terrible at 1B than what we got now?????
  9. Are we 1 percenters ?????
  10. Bres-slow mentioned the poor infield defense in his conference. Devers should be a huge topic for internal discussions
  11. blown saves points to a lack of quality depth in the bullpen. All 26 may not be created equally, but your baseball team is as weak as your weakest player. Hence, no playoffs in three years
  12. Where is fulmer listed
  13. Abreau cassas and yoshida, three lefty hitters that need to be former Red Sox players this off season. Seattle makes perfect sense for a trade partner. maybe San Fran does too
  14. We ended the year second in blown saves in 2024! There are a couple of free agents that can help us because relying on Hendricks is very scary now
  15. Yoshida’s shoulder surgery makes trading him a lot more difficult for bres-slow. maybe he can spend most of 2025 on the 60 day DL.
  16. Chance for someone to fall to us
  17. Yoshida would look excellent in a west coast team uniform next year! Bres-slow will make it happen
  18. Meidroth is an on base machine and table setter. The ideal number 2 hitter behind Duran. defensively, he is an improvement over devers at 3B. I am not saying he is a panacea to our hitting lineup, I am saying he improves our team in 2025 by less errors in the field. Less strikeouts and higher on base percentage. And I think he chips in 15 stolen bases a year.
  19. Are you saying a farm system that is very heavily left handed hitting and utterly bereft of any pitching is a good thing???
  20. it would be huge if Bailey can help Guerrero find the strike zone. Kids stuff is above average for sure
  21. We are top 5 in 2024 in errors. Are infield leaks more than the titanic ever did we are top 5 in strikeouts. A large number of strike outs leave town with O’Neil, and a large number of strike outs are tied to youngsters seeing pitches for the first time. we struggle to hit left handed pitching top 3 deficiencies to fix among position players 1.) cut down on errors. Need new personnel on the infield for this to happen. Defensive dumpster fires across the infield. 2.) get a bit more right handed bats in the lineup, (thank you hang’em Chaim) Campbell and meidroth come to mind. These two guys also fix number 1. Move the left handed excess to other teams where it makes sense for both teams. Start with yoshida to any west coast team, 3.) cut down on strikeouts. See Meidroth.
  22. Campbell is the right handed bat to replace big wind O’Neil!
  23. How many guys on this list graduate in 2025?
  24. He should be our starting 2bd baseman next year. His swing is funky but he makes it work.
  25. If ownership set the 2025 budget at 195 million, we still have a decent amount of room to sign and trade for a quality starters. I know bres-slow said he planned on being aggressive this offseason, but does mean pitching??? hang’em Chaim has absolutely stocked our team with left handed hitters, hard to see bres-slow augmenting there. so that leaves pitching and right handed hitters for bres-slow to be aggressive with this offseason
