  1. This current SS superclass is crazy It won't be as rich when/if Bo hits free agency. Will teams really value him the way they have Lindor/Turner/Correa/Bogaerts/etc? Offensively I can see it but he's not as good a defender as any of them.
  2. Yeah Every time the Jays faced him instead of Snell/Baz/McLanahan/Glasnow/etc I was always hopeful we'd hit him hard and yet it never seemed to really happen Vladdy 4 for 28 against him Teoscar 13 for 34 with an OPS over 1400 Bo, Springer, Chapman all really bad against him
  3. The Royals announced they’ve signed left-hander Ryan Yarbrough to a one-year contract. It’s reportedly a $3MM guarantee with $1MM in available incentives.
  4. Prediction: Mets trade Carrasco this off season By the All Star break Mets are in desperate need of a starting pitcher
  5. MLB Network: 4 teams are involved in trade discussions for Carlos Carrasco
  6. Well the real answer of course is whichever one gets us Ohtani sarcasm
  7. I'm fine with the Kiermaier signing knowing that they tried hard for Nimmo and lost out to the Met$$$ and that he probably just wanted to stay there anyway. The overpay required to get him away would probably have been absolutely outrageous.
  8. My 2 cents in the debate: Kiermaier should play excellent defense and has an 80% chance of being a slightly below average or average hitter this year. No chance he's better than that, and 20% chance he has a crappy offensive season. Bellinger will play excellent defense and has an 80% chance of sucking balls hitting, maybe a 10% chance of being "good" and a 10% chance of magically returning to a beast at the plate /opinion based on a combination of stats and gut feeling
  9. Maybe on average and in the B class of FA SPs But some big $$ team (Padres, Dodgers, Yankees) will probably still pay big $ for Rodon specifically
  10. Yeah. Stripling and the team knew he wouldn't get a big big $ offer. And I like the Bassit deal better It was likely right to not qualify him all things considered.
  11. Terminator saw the opportunity to use the word "thrice" and took it. Like a BOSS.
  12. Should the Jays have qualified him? Would have offset the draft pick loss for signing Bassit But would have hurt his market which was obviously a bit weak. Clearly no one sees him as a full time rotation piece.
  13. Agreed Red Sox are a complete mess with no direction and once again might be the worst team in the division as the rosters currently stand. Orioles seem ready to strike but just aren't quite "going for it" yet.
  14. Me too I would have happily kept him for that price Paying Kikuchi to suck and Ryu to not pitch hurts
  15. Shi Davidi was on MLB Network this morning. With significant paraphrasing on my part... His impression based on early off season intetests vs the last few weeks required a pivot He thinks they prob had about 30M to spend comfortably. Plan A seemed to be signing Nimmo for CF and a cheaper SP in Heaney. Those seemed to be their primary targets early in the off season. It seemed like when they couldn't get traction with Nimmo that they changed plan slighty and went to plan B which was getting a less expensive OF and budgeting more for a SP. Hence KK and Bassit. (FWIW I'm quite fine with the Plan He thinks they are trying to work out a deal trading a catcher for a younger left handed hitter but has no idea who that might be, just knows that's what the FO wants. He thinks it's possible they might have tried to keep Stripling if the price was right but seeming less likely as time goes on that he'll stay.
  16. Yankees making their formal offer for Rodon ... Or something
  17. Was going to post something similar about batting KK only had only two true terrible batting seasons. Most recently he has been in the 90-104 wRC+ range. If he can keep up average/slightly below average hitting that's OK. JBJ is a HUGE liability in the lineup. KK is not. He's not great but he's acceptable if he keeps up the defense.
  18. Most of their MLB roster is on huge $$ contracts
  19. Yeah Legit ace pitchers are 36-43M now Insane
  20. Agreed We needed a sure thing SP to slot 3 or 4
  21. I would trade for a lefty bat before acquiring a back end starter if those are the options
  22. Done And I hope it comes true
  23. Stolen from a Teeet: Most Defensive Runs Saved Since 2015 1. Kevin Kiermaier 133 Andrelton Simmons 133 3. Mookie Betts 127 4. Nolan Arenado 125 Next closest: 80
  24. No one on the AL East has spent much at all on free agents compared to other divisions Other than Judge just to keep him
  25. I haven't liked hardly any of the free agent deals this offseason from team/dollars perspectives. Don't mind the player in the right role but don't like this deal at all.
