Seems to make sense for both teams. Yankees get a much-needed everyday RF who will love the short porch, Red Sox open up a spot to add an actual impact OF to join the mix with Duran, Yoshida, Rafaela, and Abreu
-
I'd be excited as f*** to have him, regardless of the terms. He's the most exciting and maybe the best player in almost 100 years, and him playing for the Jays would be amazing. I don't care whether it's 45M or 50M. -
But they probably don't actually know to what extent his comments do or don't bother Ohtani. Ohtani might not even know. All I'm saying is that decisions are messy, and a seemingly innocuous comment, or just the way the way someone looks or dresses can tilt a decision one way or another. If Ohtani asked that things be kept quiet, I don't think its outrageous to suggest that Roberts' candid response might have left a bad taste in his mouth. That could matter if he's torn on what offer to accept. Or it might be a complete nonfactor.
-
Either him or Soto would have to come with an extension. No way the team dumps the prospect capital it would take for both only have both leave in the offseason.
-
People don't always understand why they make the decisions they make. If he's on the fence about where to go, a personal annoyance or perceived act of disrespect could absolutely nudge him one way or the other.
-
Multiple high profile reporters have been whining about this
-
I wonder if we'd be after Musgrove. Especially if Manoah is going the other way. 4/80 left on his deal. He's local to SD though, and probably wouldn't be thrilled with a trade.
-
Kim would definitely be desireable. But the cost for him and Soto would be enormous.
-
I wonder what other players we want. Not a whole lot else there that isn't attached to a massive salary. Grisham as a 4th OF?
-
Good.
-
lmao
-
Devenski to the Rays and Yates to Texas
-
Is this the slowest winter meetings ever? It sure feels like it.
-
No, he had a 7.5M player option he declined. Padres declined a 2/32 option on Wacha.
-
Can't afford him
-
Agreed. The Angels being there is absurd.
-
Him not coming here would suck. But I wouldn't mind LAD as a destination. Him and Trout toiling away with the Angels into their 30s is just too sad to actually happen
-
Him staying with the Angels would ruin the offseason
-
Volpe projects as a 3-win player next year, for league min. I don't think that would be a reasonable ask for 1-year of Soto at 30M or whatever.
-
That's an easy yes for Toronto.
-
Like I said, there's plenty of time. If they don't want Tiedemann as the 5th starter, and they want White and Francis in AAA, sign whoever of Clevinger/Paxton/Montas/German/Lorenzen/Syndergaard/Wood etc... the nerds think could be serviceable.
-
He's also expendable in the context of the Jays having Gausman/Berrios/Bassit/Kikuchi locked in, White, Francis, Tiedeman and Macko as depth, and an entire offseason to bolster that group.
-
Look at that man. This is his final form. The peak alpha nerd energy that is going to casually land Toronto the biggest free agent signing in sports history.
-
The algorithm knows you’ll need healthy options post heart attack
-
You could make the argument that this would be the biggest free agent signing in North American sports history. Not only is he the greatest player in almost 100 years, but he'd completely transform the baseball landscape in an entire country.
