  1. The Rox, Nats and Angels would take him in a heartbeat. When you are guaranteed to finish last, and have no BP, you bet on the 100 velo guys 100% of the time.
  2. Pure guess here is that Tolle starts the year in the BP. I like BB as well, but this might be a structure type move.
  3. I don't remember, but KC would've made more sense in April 24 than he would in April 25. He has not yet shown that he can play a position or hit the ball. He absolutely crushed AA and AAA in 2024. If I see 6-8 weeks of that in 2026, I'd consider bringing him back. But he should be traded.
  4. Duran is much better in CF than in LF. It's like trying to compare a SS to a 3B. There are different athletic skillsets that work better at each position. Ceddanne is very unlikely to move. He is arguably the best CF I've even seen, and I go back to Paul Blair.
  5. I think Campbell has -0- chance of being on the 26 to start the season. I'd be real happy if he started to hit AAA pitching again. He had a 19/6 K/W with 1 HR in September. JG would be a huge gamble to start the season in LF. He had a 193 K/600 rate in AAA.
  6. Too much. Duran's 3 * 4.7 = 14.1. Skubal is 1 * 6.5 is fair. If Skubal agreed to extend, we'd be back to the Pedro/Schilling days, and I'd throw in extra.
  7. Wink or Moran? (Trade?) Lowe (non tender?) Looks like Wink and Lowe are both gone. Wink should be claimed by someone like the Nats, the Angels, or WS. No one will claim Lowe.
  8. I'd like to see him make the RS after his commitment held him back and after DD screwed him over by claiming him. But I wouldn't add him to the 40. I seriously doubt anyone would put in a claim.
  9. I would add Tolle to the BP to break in. And I don't think Kelly is good enough to be our #2.
  10. That's what Whitlock is for. Every closer has some risk. If they go down, you go to #2.
  11. Trading either Campbell or Garcia is more like trading prospects than trading an outfielder. Neither will be on our opening 26.
  12. If you can't count on Chapman, how could you possibly count on Williams?
  13. IMO, Minny hangs up the phone and changes the number.
  14. could potentially upgrade his position with an offensive-minded center fielder like Cody Bellinger If we traded Ceddanne, we would put Anthony in CF. The entire idea behind trading an outfielder is so that we have only three outfielders, not four. Adding Bellinger would put as back to four. Never happening.
  15. When I first started out, glasses of Michelob were $0.25, a mug of Michelob was $0.50, and a pitcher of Schaeffer was $2, but you'd have to sit at a table.
  16. He'll get paid like a closer. I think he gets way too much inside his own head, but he still plenty of talent. In his last 19 outings, he had a 0.36 FIP, and included one game with 4 ERs (and 3 of those runs came in a Doval meltdown). In the other 18 appearances, he allowed one ER.
  17. But another good $15M BP addition, instead of applying that $15M towards someone like Alonso?
  18. LOL! It was auto-correct, or at least that's the excuse I am going with.
  19. Rafaela is about as good in CF as anyone I've ever seen. If three guys go down with an injury, maybe move him to the IF until you get it fixed. Other than that, he plays all 162 in CF.
  20. Most lefties have split issues. Unless they are really bad, teams generally put up with the issue, and give them days off against the tougher lefties.
  21. No, they're not interested. They have a very good closer, and an outstanding setup in Whitaker. They finished 2nd in MLB in BP ERA, and they have a plethora of #6/7/8 type SPs, some of whom will be relegated to the BP. This is one of the sillier rumors yet. And I happen to think Williams will be a good signing for someone. Just not us.
  22. I rarely project any single player to be in the top-4. But who are going to acquire that is an upgrade to Duran? And trading an outfielder for an equal player at a different position, isn't upgrading from Duran.
  23. Bubic probably not. I'm looking for more control. Ragans yes, but he'll be hugely expensive and "rotator cuff strain" is troublesome.
