  1. Teams like Cincy & Pitt have way more pitching than hitting. It's like asking why Boston would trade one of their best players if we are trying to compete. It's all about fit.
  2. I agree. But just because they want more, doesn't mean I'll pay more, for just one year.
  3. $31.7M. We live in a world that recognizes deferrals.
  4. There is no chance Wong plays 1B next year.
  5. BR has Narvaez with a .686 OPSa and Wong with a .693. You could do a weighted-average to get more precise, but I think Wong will handily out-perform his salary.
  6. I find that hard to believe. Care to supply some support?
  7. We played .500 with Devers and .589 since the trade.
  8. All we can do is hope for them to spend top the limit, and hopefully beyond. How they spend the salary is not part of the informal fan/ownership agreement.
  9. If he wasn't getting that last year, he won't get it this year, being one year older.
  10. Alcantara is not injured. He made 31 GS last and finished very well.
  11. I like the fits, and the prices are okay. But I don't consider Gray to be the #2 I want. But if we added a legit #2, then we'd have a rock-solid rotation. Some won't like the Arenado component, since he doesn't hit 35 HRs, but I think he is due just enough positive regression to make him palatable.
  12. You have no idea if Grayson can even pitch. That's a medical decision. Past that, if a team that needs pitching a lot more than they need an OF, then trades one of their pitchers, my assumption is Grayson's arm is a big issue.
  13. But if you are telling people that they are being unreasonable for wanting him to spend more than 55m, than you are carrying his water for him. IMO, JH should spend at least to the TO, or at some rough percentage of revenue. But if I am projecting additions in the off-season, I'll do so using the current budget. It doesn't make sense to project spending that is unlikely to happen. Otherwise, put me down for Bregman, Bichette, Alonso, then add Tucker so that I can trade both Abreu and Duran for Greene.
  14. She's straight, hence the accusation of gay-baiting. I never heard of the term before today, and I didn't write the articles.
  15. Sure, but I am looking for practical answers. We currently have $47M to spend before the CBT. Or $54M if we spend to the 2025 levels. For discussion purposes, I like to stay in that range.
  16. There is something to be said about using your profits to grow the company. I wish they would all take that pledge to give away 85% (?) of their wealth when they pass away. But if you donate $1B of your $2B, then your company only grows at half the pace. If I gave you a choice of investing in a cure for cancer, or donating to feed the poor, what is the correct answer? Or is there even a correct answer?
  17. I think Billie says things she thinks the crowd wants to hear. It's why she's been accused of gay-baiting.
  18. To me, it's like suggesting that we trade for Skenes or Ohtani. A brief mention is fun, but there is an ongoing conversation about something really unlikely. It's a bit like discussing possible trades of Crochet.
  19. Not at all. I love the way it sounds.
  20. But I can hate JH for reasons that Billey Eilish so elegantly put (which I do) and I can hate him for buying the pittsburgh f'ing penguins (which i do x2) I know who she is, but only because of some of her rather unusual interviews. And I am not a hockey fan. So that stuff doesn't bother me.
  21. Two boppers is fine, so long as we get at least a #2 SP.
  22. It would be for only one year. I think he's maxed out at the minor league level, but still has more development to come. One year in the BP/#6, followed by 5 years as an SP.
