  1. Everything I've posted over the last two pages is that there might be other options that make more sense than Ray, especially given the comp pick. I don't think anyone would be pleased if he's allowed to walk on a reasonable deal and not replaced with another SP1 or 2.
  2. If the team loses Ray it's because either a) he doesn't want to stay, or they aren't comfortable with his contract demands and see better options on the FA market. They're not going to lose Ray because of Berrios. He just gives them the flexibility to not be desperate to retain him at all cost. Like, is the Berrios trade acceptable if they sign Ray, but unacceptable if they let him walk, get a comp pick, and sign Scherzer or Gausman?
  3. I think that's an odd way to frame things. Berrios was acquired to help with the playoff push this year, and to fill a rotation spot next year. His presence means that the team has one spot to fill in the offseason instead of two. They have a ton of flexibility now in terms of how they choose to fill the spot, and they also have a comp pick on the table to consider if they decide they prefer one of the other frontline arms over Ray. I also think Ray and Berrios are pretty interchangeable arms going forward. If I had to give 5/90 or something to one of them I'd probably choose Berrios.
  4. There's no reason for the team to get tunnel vision with Ray. They already have almost a full rotation locked in, so they have the luxury of being very selective about what 1/2 type they bring in to round it out. Ryu Berrios Manoah Stripling/Pearson/low end FAs Syndergaard, Verlander, Scherzer, Rodon, Gausman, and Greinke could all potentially make more sense, for different reasons, depending on how the offseason plays out. Semien feels like the more irreplaceable piece.
  5. Anyone want Brett Phillips for a pick? 10 homers and 13 steals in 211 PA with a 317/422.
  6. Chapman f***ing sucks
  7. I'm always astonished at how much Chapman sweats. The brim of his hat is dripping.
  8. How does authentication work if you decide to keep the ball? Would team employees work with you?
  9. I remember playing you in week 1 thinking you were going to be a powerhouse, which you would have been with a bit of injury luck. With all due respect, I hope I take you out this week so you’re gone when Trout gets back.
  10. Sucks for Jim, P2F, Org, and EZe that Dinger or Abom is going to poach a playoff spot.
  11. Yeah, one of the best in the game. Sucks watching him fall apart.
  12. Archer left injured two innings into his return today.
  13. Jim, I don't mean to bash a player I recently traded to you. It just really feels good to be on the right side of the Bellinger effect for once.
  14. Just this week he'd be be down 9-5 instead of 11-3 if he had a replacement-level OF in Bellinger's spot. The damage that an everyday hitter slashing 170/260/330 does to your offense is basically impossible to overcome.
  15. If that goofy-looking sack of s*** had put up even a 110 wRC+ my season might have looked a lot different. He’s an absolute black hole. Very happy to be done with him.
  16. You’re still alive in the playoffs. And could still flip a few cats.
  17. I was watching the game as it happened and felt terrible for you. Hopefully he’s back for the playoffs.
  18. I didn't think you were talking about mine. Top-3 are paid in your league?
  19. Still around to make some trades. Let's go.
  20. How you doing in the league?
  21. It sure is nice to play against Cody Bellinger.
  22. It looks much better than it did a week ago. You can win with that staff.
  23. Very pleased to finally acquire Lowe.
