Didn't realize Dick Fitts was so highly regarded
-
Nevermind, just saw that they owe him 41M for one year. Surprised St. Louis got anything
-
Not really expensive for the Sox
-
Interesting move. Texas doesn't have an obvious replacement at 2B.

Mike Elias is talking about the QO compensation as a consideration in the Ward/Gray-Rod. Most likely they'd just end up paying a 33-year old 2-win corner OF 23M in 2027. Elias cited Ward as a potential qualifying offer candidate heading into free agency, “so that could change that equation a little bit” in terms of “the mismatch in the amount of potential team control.”

Manoah non-tendered by Atlanta lol

That’s a fair bit more than I thought he’d get -
The thing about Gallen is that his stuff has fallen off to the point where he doesn't have a single plus pitch, and is basically throwing slop. He looked like Dan Kremer out there this season. Teams will have to believe they can get his stuff back on track, which is probably a tougher sell than gambling on health for someone like Woodruff.

Agreed - I've grown to like the slow offseason. Baseball is better than every other sport, and there's news/drama to follow literally year round. The 5-month offseason would be miserable if everything happened in a couple of days at the start of November.

Committing this early to a pitcher is a desperation gamble that poor teams like TB do to try and squeeze an extra year of control or two from elite prospects, with obvious downside risk. Toronto can afford to go year to year with Yesavage and then just pay him when he's a year or two from FA with an intact UCL.

Baltimore's mismanagement of their OF is hilarious. Two years ago we were talking about their insane depth, now they have: Ward (2.2 projected fWAR) Cowser (1.6) Beavers (1.2) O'Neil (0.8) Taveras (0.4) Kjerstad looks like a complete bust. It's one of the worst OFs in baseball, they're paying like 30M for Ward and O'Neil, and they evaporated 4 years of Gray-Rod to do it. Refusing to move guys like Cowser/Kjerstad and Mayo when they could have been used to land someone like Crochet and then watching all of those guys bust while Crochet puts up CY seasons in Boston should be a fireable offense. Mike Elias is absolutely terrible at his job.
-
Baltimore's rotation is currently projected as: Bradish Rogers Kremer Povich Wells Looking forward to those losers finishing last again.

Grayson Rodriguez traded for Taylor Ward mhttps://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2025/11/orioles-trade-grayson-rodriguez-to-angels-for-taylor-ward.html

I hid your last two posts because we're not derailing this thread with a Bauer debate. Move along to something else.
-
Who "defrocked" you? You're trolling and looking for a reaction, and its stupid and tired. Chief boyscout Ross Atkins is very obviously not going to break the league-wide blackballing for a 35-year old washed Trevor Bauer who just got his tits lit in Japan.
-
If it didn't happen when he was good, why even raise the possibility that it might happen now that he sucks?
-
Trevor Bauer will be 35 before the season starts and just had an ERA of 4.5 in Japan. It's over.
-
How could Woodruff not beat 1/22? Would have expected like 1/25 with a player option and 5M buyout, at the very least.

Let's not get carried away here
-
JimmyC is getting beat up in here, so I'm going to do the honorable thing and concede defeat in the Bellinger wars.
-
The success of the team this year can be directly attributed to the decision to punt him to NY and bring in Lauer to do his job better. Imagine the improvement in clubhouse vibes when the team didn’t have to handle the shame of one of their guys chucking 80 mph fastballs
-
Yarbrough back to the Yankees on a 1-year deal.
-
Probably like 5/100?
