  1. Yeah, Shapiro's contract expires after 2020. He's good as his job and would certainly have other options if he or the team wanted to end the relationship. I really hope to hear news about a multi-year extension for him soon, because the course of the team is right even if a lot of the individual decisions haven't worked out. And you might be right that Shapiro's contract status limited the options available to him when it came to Atkins. Maybe he didn't have the authority to extend Ross beyond 2020? The dynamic between the two is really interesting to me. I'd be interested in knowing how much rope Atkins actually has with Shapiro, assuming Shapiro is here beyond 2020.
  2. Alternatively, I would also move Piscotty for a SP4/5 type.
  3. Eddie Rosario is the 37th-most valuable player in yahoo this year. I would like to move him for a top SP. If he plays to projections he's going to come close to 40/100/110. He's also just 27.
  4. lol, that is indeed what happened with your Watson offer
  5. Anyone know the details of Atkins' extension? I keep seeing that it's through at least 2020, but I imagine the term actually has to be longer than that? A 1-year extension would indicate to me that Mark Shapiro isn't convinced that Atkins is the right guy for the long-term.
  6. Also maybe your offer just sucked and he ignored you?
  7. We talking weeks or like a few hours?
  8. Travis Bergen is a 25-year old reliever with a 4.24 ERA, 4.83 xFIP, a 6.7% swinging strike rate, and a wonky shoulder. DSJ is a 26-year old outfielder with a league average bat (at best) and horrible defense I love when things work out exactly as they were expected to. I can't believe the whining over those two on this forum.
  9. I respect the hustle, but players who’s MiLB eligibility expire aren’t available until the next cut has passed. I would have had to leave him on my farm through the cut for him to become a free agent.
  10. Yup. The 10 extra wins or whatever that separate 28th from 20th mean our young roster was 10 wins better. That means a lot more for the future than the difference between 3rd and 11th in the draft.
  11. It’s insane that he was immediately a 145 wRC+ at 19/20 with almost no minor league reps. He has a chance to put up special numbers in his prime.
  12. Deadpool, do you have time to investigate yourself for your post BBBB reported, or do you want me to lead the investigation?
  13. We're on week 23 of the year. If I had to guess I'd say I've probably given BBB 15 1-week bans this year.
  14. This post is pretty wild man. I have no idea what it means.
  15. I'd actually welcome him back if the team decides Rowdy Tellez isn't an MLB player.
  16. You’ve just described someone getting murdered for f***ing someone’s wife, not for being straight.
  17. Apparently he's better on the corners this year? I've watched maybe two games since April.
  18. OK, I'm going to try to sell you people on Sandy Alcantara: - he's 23 and sits 95.5 with a 4-pitch mix - he looks like an elite contact manager: 90th percentile exit velocity, and 87th percentile hard hit %. It's how he's managed sub-4 ERAs in the majors despite markedly worse peripherals - he swinging strike % in the majors is sitting at 11.6% He'll need to be promoted before our draft, and I'm not in a great position to roster him while waiting on his command to improve, but there's high end upside here to a team looking more to the future. He's kind of Aaron Sanchez, with actual evidence for contact management skills and no blister issues. I'd like to move him in a deal for a very good reliever.
  19. I guess it's possible he's more comfortable there, but his biggest issue on the corners seemed to be terrible routes, with his arm being his biggest strength. It doesn't seem like something that's going to work very well.
  20. What the hell is going on?
  21. Yeah. You basically nuke the value of prospects when you promote them anyway, to the extent that rotating through potentially interesting MLB players is probably a better use of spots.
  22. You’ve been in this league four years Connor.
