I agree right hand not knowing what left hand is doing and generaly dysfunction more likely than evil genius 4d chess deception.
However, breslow does talk to us like we're idiots.
Heres the team

Marte

Done.
Drohan was not protected in a previous season (to manys surprise) and was taken and returned like song. But drohan had a very good year in aaa last year and is 26 so could easily get drafted due to age and aaa season (showing ml readiness)
He entered my personal radar because i have a lot of friends who went to florida st and are fans.
Im only board if they continue to call it the 40 man when its a max of 42. Kind of like how the big 12 and big 10 conferences keep adding schools and are up to like 20 each now, but yet wont change the name of the conference.
Depends what you mean by "BIG" but I did note that you said "get" and not "sign"
If we are including trading, which I feel like you are allowing me to because you said "get" and if "BIG" can be one OPS north of .850 and another one north of .800 (projected) that plus a #2 (if we can include a high end #3) - I would say 40%
If you mean 2 elite bats and a top 20 pitcher, 15%
Top 5 payroll, top 3 offense (or be trying to improve it), a lot of it is more effort than results for me. Certainly not rolling over Verdugo year after year becuase "but I wubbbbb him", certainly not refusing to sign elite hitters when you have 0 because you cant accept that you made a bad investment on yoshida.
Certainly not trying to fill every hole with bounceback candidates.
Since we cut back on payroll (and its not just payroll its also effort):
third / 5(2019)
last / 5 (2020)
second / 5 (2021)
last / 5 (2022)
last / 5 (2023
Third / 5 (2024)
Third / 5 (2025)
This is since theyve started being fine with just having mediocre players like Verdugo and Yoshida and why woudl we need Schwarber, weve got Yoshida and Casas! Thats what youve been doing, third and last place finishes are what you are getting. THe era of complacency!
Fix it and sign Schwarber or get boo'd forever.
But we'll have like 7 pitchers in the minors on our 40 man lol. WE can rotate through them, haha
I know its not happening, theres a reason why there isnt one 5 man bench in baseball. They should consider it in playoffs though when teams pinch run more and theres more days off to help pitcher recovery.
When I play through a season in the show, you def feel it when you go one less pitcher. Pitchers are always tired. Im not actually questioning it.
I agree. Breslow cant handle criticism. And Devers shouldnt have called him out like that and Devers was being a defiant jerk himself, but the pattern is there with Breslow as well. Im not surprised they couldnt coexist.
Johan Santana, Roberto Clemente, Josh Hamilton, Dan Uggla, Shane Victorino, our starting Catcher, Whitlock (I believe)
I wanna flip the conversation if I may. Not who we protecting. Thats boring (no offense). WHo we getting?
