  1. Wow, he's really bad. Discuss.
  2. Playoff odds are at about 26%. Season definitely isn't over, but it's also not too early to start talking about the interesting scenario of 11 guys on the 25 man about to hit free agency.
  3. I think it's pretty bad. No 1B, LF, or DH. No bench. A RF that's struggling in AAA. Average-ish rotation. Catcher might suck balls. No talent looming in AAA. Weak FA class. It's going to be hard to field a competitive team next year if none of the good free agents are retained.
  4. It's going to be an interesting 2017. With all the free agents gone, the team looks something like: C - Martin 1B - 2B - Travis 3B - Donaldson SS - Tulowitzki CF - Pillar RF - Pompey LF - DH - Bench - SP - Stroman SP - Sanchez SP - Happ SP - Estrada SP - Hutchison BP - Osuna, Biagini, Loup, Girodo That's a bad team with two albatross contracts, a lot of holes, and about $100M committed. If things go south this year, you actually have a decision looming about whether you want to trade or extend Donaldson.
  5. Just a reminder that Betances is available. Needs: blue chip prospects, high end OF, and high end SP.
  6. Hovering around 0.500 would be brutal. There are a ton of pieces hitting free agency in the offseason, and letting them all walk for nothing while also missing the playoffs would be tough to recover from. Encarnacion, Bautista, Dickey, Saunders, Cecil, Storen, Smoak, Floyd is a lot of wins to replace, especially with $85M already committed to five guys (Tulo, Martin, Donaldson, Estrada, Happ), only one of which is above average. It really is for the best that they sell if it looks like the playoffs aren't going to happen. They need assets to actually field a team in 2017. It would be nice if there was a way to rid themselves of Tulo and Martin and create clean slate in the offseason, but that's probably a pipe dream.
  7. Jose screaming after every pop/fly out is getting old.
  8. It seems like Biagini hasn't been squared up all year.
  9. That's really not an impressive core, especially considering that Donaldson is two years from free agency.
  10. Dickey is having the same season he's had here the last three years. There's nothing sexy about it, but he'll finish the year with 215 innings with an ERA in the 3.75-4.25 range, which is worth 2-3 wins. He's not part of the problem.
  11. Jesus Christ, Bautista is a statue
  12. I haven't seen tire pumping this aggressive since ECJF fell for Randy Ruiz.
  13. That sack of s*** black hole can't get optioned soon enough.
  14. Second time in a few years our best reliever breaks just as he's hitting free agency. Him and Janssen are a nice reminder that extending these guys into free agency is generally a bad idea.
  15. Tolleson is a holds guy now. Want him?
  16. Adam Eaton is slashing 302/384/454 with 16 homers and a 132 wRC+ over the last calendar year. I wonder if I should trade him for Mark Appel.
  17. I'd say he has hits and RBI wrapped up, and everything else could easily flip in one day
