    The 3rd option is that they don't even have a lineup yet. Probably a moot point now that they traded for Robert. Another move I don't get.
  2. JoeBrady
    I prefer to keep Abreu, but starting Anthony in RF is still a very good fit.
  3. JoeBrady
    I like both guys, just not for the RS. Arri caught my eye with his K-BB% in 2024, but has been injured since, plus the FB%. Meyers is a nice choice for a team with sluggers in the corner slots, but is duplicative of Ceddanne's skills.
  4. JoeBrady
    I hate the Pats, but kudos. Just like with the Bears, the FO did a lot more than just draft a good QB. Both assembled a really good team around their QBs.
  5. JoeBrady
    Not in rebuild mode, but they don't have any obvious fit for Paredes. He definitely isn't playing 3B. They have Altuve at 2nd, with Matthews backing him up. They have Walker at 1st. Paredes is probably better than both, but I cannot imagine Houston benching either. And Paredes is too talented to sit on the bench.
  6. JoeBrady
    There are no elegant formulas for this, but adding Paredes for minor leaguers will make it more of an apples-to-apples comparison on added cost v added WAR.
  7. JoeBrady
    The assumption being that we could've gotten both Bregman and Alonso. Just imho, we received a similar WAR/$$$ (less WAR and less $$$) but are getting players aged 30-34 & 34-35 as opposed to players aged 32-36 & 31-35. I think our commitments will age better.
  8. JoeBrady
    Cots has them at $265M. I think the difference is the treatment of 40-man minor leaguers. Cots is assigning them a value of $2,669,200. Spotrac has assigned a value of $820,000 to 20 different players. That doesn't right.

    That's why I always defended DD's extension for Sale. Guys at that level are unicorns. You might only see 2-3 of them in all of BB in any given year.
  10. JoeBrady
    Jumping off the Stroud train?
  11. JoeBrady
    Do these things matter? Putting aside the #2 v HR hitter, we acquired a 3.3 Suarez instead of a 2.85 Alonso, plus we added Contreras. That almost has to be better.

    I volunteered to do some work for internal auditing, since they were behind. I bring my report in, look on the wall, and see a picture with a young lady and Papi. I asked if he was a RS fan, this being NYC. He said that was his daughter. She went to a college in Boston and got an internship with the RS. She got to go to all the parties AND got a WS ring. She had to call her dad up for $300 because it was a taxable gift. That might value the ring (at cost) at maybe $1,200-1,500. For an intern. I offered to reimburse him the $300 in exchange for the ring, but he wasn't going for it.
  13. JoeBrady
    That's my guess. The NYY can roll with their current outfield; the Mets cannot. Given similar resources, I can't see Hal out-bidding Cohen. I'll be tuning into FAN a lot if that happens.
  14. JoeBrady
    I'd add to that the fact that injuries likely won't change Duran's market. Between now and opening day, there is a pretty good chance that at least one GM just doesn't like their rotation, or there is an injury, a rookie/2nd year guy just loses the plate. I feel pretty strongly that someone will call up for Bello.
  15. JoeBrady
    I would do that. I don't think Houston would, but I don't think it is far off either.
  16. JoeBrady
    This is what's wrong with America. Notin gave you a perfectly good alternative, trying to bring back classical language, and you refuse. Youth is wasted on the young.
  17. JoeBrady
    Hicks was the salary we ate to move Devers. IRT Masa, imho, he's worth more to us than another team, depending on whether or not we trade Duran. If we don't trade Duran, then eat $12M per and move him. If we do move Duran, I am perfectly comfortable platooning Masa and Romy.
  18. JoeBrady
    I couldn't agree more. He was barely a catcher when he was a catcher. Outside of in-game injuries, there is no chance I'd want to risk losing him to an injury just so he could start a game here or there.
  19. JoeBrady
    I see no chance of him playing over Hamilton.
  20. JoeBrady
    Uh, could I blame my wife?
  21. JoeBrady
    Definitely a good one. I think we had more descriptive adjectives once upon a time.
  22. JoeBrady
    I never heard of it. Until I Wiki'd it and realized I had seen it. I think DoD is still more logical than the Mets.
  23. JoeBrady
    Who is the Con Man?
  24. JoeBrady
    The first two are fine. Now that we've worked on your words, I want you to start referring to JH himself by different names.
  25. JoeBrady
    I've been saying that since it was just us and the NYY. Trying to outbid the NYY would almost certainly result in a bad contract. Now it's LA and the NYMs. The rest of the league is going to bid like us.
