    FWIW, while Ohtani got away with it, his interpreter was still part of it. He either stole the money, or he made the transfers on behalf of Ohtani. Both are crimes. That said, I'm pretty sure his interpreter will be taken care of.

    The RS offer, from what I heard, was $300M/10. The LAD present value offer was $306.7M/12. The RS offer, if true, was more lucrative. Covid probably impacted that, but that's impossible to calculate.

    Right now, this is all for fun. But there should be some natural association with a country before you can play for them. The whole idea is to root for players that had their roots in your country. Me playing for Ireland is fine. But I don't see how Italy inviting a bunch of Irish guys to play for Italy gives Italians a rooting interest.

    IMO, Lester was far worse. I think Betts always intended on leaving, but Lester said 'you're going to have to rip this jersey off my back'.

    I like what little I saw of Bennett.
  6. JoeBrady
    I think that the right approach. Too many people try to see how we will replace Bregman & Casas, without considering how how much we will pick up at 1st & 2nd.

    I'm not sure of the long-term timing, but if we got Romy back by July, I'd be happy.
  8. JoeBrady
    That summarizes it perfectly for me. With Casas & Romy on the IL, and KC completely unproven, we'll be lucky to have visibility by June. I see no reason to be in a hurry to make any decisions.
  9. JoeBrady
    I think that has to be taken in context. The weakest spot is relative to your PAs or IPs.
  10. JoeBrady
    I agree with that. If Yoshida is the last guy on the bench, over Eaton, the loss is marginal at worst. If you need a starting caliber player, Yoshida is much better than Eaton, imo.
  11. JoeBrady
    Let's re-visit this in June. Casas has to prove he is healthy and has to prove he can still hit. I still like him, but there is no chance he is on the roster on OD. KC starts in the minors. Again, I haven't given up on him, but has also shown nothing. If we released Eaton, he might pass through waivers. Every team has someone like that. I don't see how Yoshida blocks anyone.
  12. JoeBrady
    KC likely starts in the minors, Casas starts off on the IL, and Eaton and Ward are barely in the league. We won't lose much if these guys aren't on the team.

    Jackson
  14. JoeBrady
    That was an issue for me. I am nowhere near giving up on him, but I expected more from him after the demotion. Even in ST, he has a 6/0 K/W.
  15. JoeBrady
    I think we are in agreement. The internet doesn't always space things the way I like, so I don't put too much effort into spacing. If I deem it important, like a sequence of numbers, I will use Excel and copy it over. Now that we have resolved this important issue, now we can work on trading our Yoshida for someone else's RH Yoshida.
  16. JoeBrady
    Bennett trade.

    Michael Taylor in 2023 was the last one.

    When Gooden first showed up, the Mets were coming off a bad season. One of my friend's girlfriend worked for a dentist that had season tickets. I use to get all the afternoon games. I saw him early throw a few 98 mph FBs to Hundley, who was a professional hitter. Then he threw that lollipop curve. Hundley wasn't even close to the pitch. He was so badly beaten that I started to laugh. He was unhittable. Until the NYMs thought the right move was to let a 21 year old pitcher throw 16 CG and 276.2 IPs.

    I like to use the letters as kind of a gradation. IMO is strongest, often near-certain, but I like to show how humble I am. I also use 'p' to indicate something that is more a personal opinion, rather than a researched opinion. And I am happy you picked up on the 'v'.

    I thought it was one " for each word?
  21. JoeBrady
    I think IKF gets all the RH IF ABs, even assuming they occasionally platoon Mayer. I think Romy becomes a platoon DH/emergency IF.
  22. JoeBrady
    IMHO, it starts with: Chapman Whitlock Weissert (no particular order) Slaten Kelly, probably Sandoval (at some point) Crawford ("") Moran or a prospect I could understand acquiring another RP, but I wouldn't go out of my way.
  23. JoeBrady
    They wouldn't get either guy straight-up, let alone another prospect. They might've overplayed their hand.
  24. JoeBrady
    I think our team is complete now. If Paredes came cheap, he'd be worth looking at. But I see no way of us constructing a Duran or Abreu for Paredes+ trade.
  25. JoeBrady
    The other off-speed pitches work well off of his FB. No one is going to be like Gooden.
