  1. I pity the team that gives him THAT
  2. Hasn't Jones complained about being called things in every park he's played in (including his own)?
  3. Bichette will obviously depend on how his swing handles the higher levels. If he gets exploited a bit, I think Dozier could be a decent ceiling comp (maybe with closer to 30 home runs though). If he doesn't get exploited, I think Cano could be a good ceiling. I really don't see him stealing a lot of bases in the majors. I think a good ceiling for Alford might be McCutchen. Vlad is maybe a little harder. Pujols or Miggy may not actually be unreasonable ceilings, although I think it's tough to suggest that for any player. Maybe Manny Ramirez, if Vlad was to play in the OF for a bit.
  4. Interesting, I wonder why?
  5. So would I, but I think Panik is more realistic. Same level of control, same approximate value. Panik is a little safer and better fit for us offensively, and Pillar would help them more in that big field. Move Travis to LF and try to keep him healthier if he isn't always having to land on his knee, etc.
  6. Pillar for Panik would be interesting.
  7. In one you warm the arm slower, one you have to make a throw at 100% while cold. For a pitcher who throws a lot, it takes some time to loosen up the arm. It's less of a problem for a normal outfielder.
  8. He'd be interesting, but I don't think they'd want to move him.
  9. Yeah, he tried to shoot it before he caught it. Great play by VanVleet to get the offensive foul call though!
  10. I don't think that's true. We made a very good offer to Edwin to keep him, we took on full contracts to get guys like Liriano, and let's not discuss Morales. The team is simply in a transition period, so long term deals probably don't make a lot of sense atm. Shorter term deals often involve value type signings.
  11. There must be some money being eaten ... like a LOT of money being eaten.
  12. I think I read somewhere that Otani's favorite player is Darvish. If true, maybe we can get him if we also sign Darvish
  13. The part about the Cubs creating the fictional DVD is really interesting. Major props for creativity.
  14. I still strongly believe Tellez will be claimed if we expose him, and I'm really hoping we don't.
  15. C - Carlos Ruiz, Hundley INF - Stephen Drew OF - Ethier, Jay SP - Anderson, Chacin, Wei-Yin Chen, Garcia, Hellickson, Hutch (maybe), Liriano, Lynn, Tyson Ross
  16. I think the words "oh hell no" come to mind.
  17. I'd love to get JD, but not at THAT price. At least not for a guy who already struggles on defense.
  18. We all know what will happen. They'll sign three higher end guys quickly and get a bunch of fan excitement and tickets sold, then back out of the contracts when the physicals come in.
  19. Yeah, accept it, then next year they can't be offered it again.
  20. Add to that his near no-hitter in his second career start. I was just starting university when that happened, and was watching it in the common room. It felt really magical (and heartbreaking when he lost it). That playoff matchup between him and Carpenter was also really something.
  21. They should rename the revamped Dunedin complex after him when it's completed. It's fitting, given he went down there to remake himself.
  22. Boy, offering it to Wade Davis seems really risky with him coming off a shaky year.
  23. Damn, he's probably my favorite Jay of all time.
  24. IMO there's no chance Tellez doesn't get taken. His problems last year were due to family issues if I remember right. He's basically MLB ready, and someone will want to see what that bat can do.
