    Same here. I've liked Breslow's previous drafts, but this seemed a bit meh. But the dollars are starting to make sense. FWIW, ESPN had those three guys ranked #51, #57, and #80. If this was FB, that trade-off would be profitable.
  2. JoeBrady
    Wells, Diaz and Miranda-was probably hoping to get out of the inning without Caminero coming up as the tying run.
  3. JoeBrady
    I'd bet that there is a good market for him, but I doubt he gets traded.
  4. JoeBrady
    He probably doesn't mention him at all. Basically: "If you even mention Mayer's name, I am hanging up on you. But just for chuckles, what did you have in mind?"
  5. JoeBrady
    100%. No disrespect for Gray, but I was very happy that they didn't select him.
  6. JoeBrady
    I don't count back door selections. Miso is the best right now, but Wheeler is clearly 2nd.
  7. JoeBrady
    Wheeler is 10-1 with a 2.13 Sanchez was 8-2 with a 2.50 at the break last year, and finished 2nd in the CY.

    I remember someone saying that Lester was a #5 SP before he went to the Cubs. Does that qualify as long shelf life?
  9. JoeBrady
    I was looking at his BR page, and it is lit up with bold numbers. Leads MLB in hits, HRs, RBIs, OBP, SLG, OPS, OPS+, rOBA, Rbat+, and TB. He's certainly worth a considerable package.
  10. JoeBrady
    I have my fair share of dumb comments if you want some career guidance.
  11. JoeBrady
    I think that job is already filled.
  12. JoeBrady
    Someone should tell Seigler that he needs to run to 1st, even if it is a pop out.
  13. JoeBrady
    Priester, sure. But right now, we don't even know who won the Harrison trade.
  14. JoeBrady
    Every week, there is a new RS player to hate. I don't even bother trying to keep track anymore.
  15. JoeBrady
    You're probably right on adding an SP. I can see an innings limit. This is part of me wanting some clarity on Crochet. Crochet, Gray, and Suarez is a huge 1-2-3, and I think we can muddle thru on a 4-5.
  16. JoeBrady
    It depends on whether or not they think Story's abysmal hitting was the result of his injury. He had a .741 last year. If they think he can even supply a .700, they will stick with him, imho.
  17. JoeBrady
    The rotation is decimated? The RS are #1 in ERA and OPS+ over the past 28 days. Suarez should be back, and hopefully Early. I'm not concerned about our rotation at this point.
  18. JoeBrady
    No to both. I like Yordie real well, but those are the top four guys in our system. We'll be receiving about 15 bWAR and likely be giving up much more. I'd be closer on the Pena, but he'll give us maybe 7.5 bWAR. Early alone is probably worth maybe 11-15 bWAR. And I like Godbout. I wouldn't hate it, but I wouldn't do it.
  19. JoeBrady
    Impossible to answer for a couple of reasons. What is the health status of our injured players? Having a vintage Crochet for the playoffs would put me in an aggressive mood. And to a lesser degree with Suarez and Early. Before I start trading the farm, I want to be a near-lock for the playoffs, with a chance of being in 1st. The playoff path is much slipperier if we play most of our games on the road. I'd need to who the big player is. For those three guys, the only target I see is Yordie, and even for Yordie, that is a significant cost.
  20. JoeBrady
    I doubt that two teams with better records than us, will be selling. We should be focusing on teams that will be selling, or maybe looking for payroll relief.
  21. JoeBrady
    I just want good deals. If you over pay for good talent, and miss the playoffs, or are out in the first round, then it damages the future. Basically, I'm an agnostic. Make good deals whether it involves Arias++, or a few lottery tickets.
  22. JoeBrady
    Anyone talking about Cora taking over the Phillies might have imbibed prematurely. Mattingly is 45-24 and would be MOTY if the vote was held today. OTOH, it feels like Cora was a much better manager than Mendoza. I don't think it is a well-constructed team, but after the 2025 collapse, and the bad 2026 start, how long do stick with the manager?
  23. JoeBrady
    If I add up the two sets of numbers, it looks like 17 of 29.. Pretty sure that's > .500. But if the Yankees are as bad as you think, we have a shot of catching the.
  24. JoeBrady
    With the usual caveat that it must be an okay deal. Don't make a bad deal just to make a deal. But past that, one of Bloom's best moves was making the Pivetta trade maybe ten days before the deadline. He took some criticism for not waiting, but imho, if you have a deal you like, take it. Don't try to get cute or cheap.
  25. JoeBrady
    It feels like a bit of trolling. Before the Yankees came to Boston, they had won 11 of 16. After the sweep, they won 6 of 13, including their last 4. They been weakened but are still a good team. The WS are in 1st, and have played an amazing .646 at home. LAA and the NYM are weak, but they play .457 and .429 at home. This is a very good streak.
