    He lowballed Alonso because he knew he had the Contreras deal available.
  2. JoeBrady
    I think he is a perfect fit.
  3. JoeBrady
    You have no idea what Breslow's plan is. I mean, if you think you talked to him about it, I'd be interested in hearing the conversation. But you have no idea what Breslow was thinking on the 100 players he might have been considering.
  4. JoeBrady
    We had no good 2B options. It made sense to me.
  5. JoeBrady
    I think that's pretty close. A team like Miami might not have that much interest in keeping Alcantara due to his salary.
  6. JoeBrady
    Of course. As I always say, no one will trade for us unless they get someone back that they hope will have some success.
  7. JoeBrady
    From both a present perspective, as well as 20/20 hindsight, Breslow's off-season was flawless. These are his off-season additions: Contreras Durbin Monasterio IKF Seigler Gray Suarez Bennett Guerrero It is a real possibility that this is the best off-season the RS have ever had, and one the best off-seasons any GM in history has ever had.
  8. JoeBrady
    Contreras, whom we have.
  9. JoeBrady
    So in your mind, we were either going to sign Schwarber or Gaspar for $750k and decided on Gaspar?
  10. JoeBrady
    You're not even trying now. Are you saying that Contreras' .930 OPS would be even higher had he had better protection?
  11. JoeBrady
    The miserable start that Bregman had wouldn't have helped us at all. Adding Bregman + Alonso instead of Durbin, Contreras and Ranger would've made us worse, worse off.
  12. JoeBrady
    I've probably posted the results over overlaying the 2025 results of Story, Duran and Narvaez over the 2026 results a dozen times. It shows us having a very good offense. I thought this was accepted science by this time.
  13. JoeBrady
    The HRs went up from June by 10% (prorated). The OBP went up 15%.
  14. JoeBrady
    This was one of the best off-seasons I have ever seen. Everyone has injuries, but one could argue that, if we had the Crochet and Anthony from last year, we'd have the best record in the league.
  15. JoeBrady
    I think what Fred is saying is that, if the only missing piece was another top-notch hitter, then, had Anthony and Mead not gotten injured, we'd have had a top-notch team. Good of him to finally admit it.
  16. JoeBrady
    Yup, you won't hear of it until it's done. That's why I shake my head at the fans when they claim their GM couldn't close the deal on a three-way trade where they were getting Ohtani, Yordan and Judge.
  17. JoeBrady
    For me, it was 60 years of programming that almost all infielders being RH hitters.
  18. JoeBrady
    So long as we have Arias, we have no fit for another l/t infielder. Otto is legit, but I wouldn't trade good prospects for him.
  19. JoeBrady
    I don't pay that much attention to folks that didn't consider Gray a #2. Gray is a legit #2. Sandy is a legit #3+, with a #2 ceiling, imho.
  20. JoeBrady
    Given that no pitcher coming back from an injury is a sure-thing, it would pretty nice to see a strong game from Sandy. If he could take every start between now and the end of the season, I'd feel a lot more comfortable about our rotation, now and hopefully the post-season.
  21. JoeBrady
    You will befuddle our fans by talking math.
  22. JoeBrady
    I don't understand the logic. We got unlucky, but isn't this still trading one IL slot for another IL slot? Does the Cardinal's version of SS think that the Cards got nothing because Early is on the IL?
  23. JoeBrady
    Sandy won't change, but I'm not sure he has to. He looks like a pretty good pitcher to me.
  24. JoeBrady
    You can change how you pitch, but probably cannot due much to change your physical attributes. With Tyron, it was a matter of throwing strikes. That said, I can easily see Alcantara morphing into a 2027 version of Gray.
  25. JoeBrady
    When a team in the middle of a pennant race wants to trade you one of their best, controllable SPs, you hang up. But Alvarez is intriguing. But I have no idea why the Mets would trade him. He'd be worth some non-Arias prospects, but likely unattainable.
