    Hey I was going off someone else’s data
  2. Stangstag
    Hard to disagree with this
  3. Stangstag
    Yup. If you believe those projections to be accurate, you have to hold onto Kirk. Expecting a 20 point jump in wRC+ seems extremely bullish and I doubt many teams would value him THAT highly.
  4. Stangstag
    Also to be fair, it looks like Garcia’s projections are a bit light?? Kirk’s are pretty crazy optimistic
  5. Stangstag
    I would probably finally pay for that fangraphs subscription if they had some kind of trade value/assessment tool
  6. Stangstag
    I don’t really get it either, but I thought this was the site everyone uses to approximate trade values.
  7. Stangstag
    Your homerism is showing. https://www.baseballtradevalues.com/trade-simulator/ Has their values as close to equal, with Garcia’s value actually being higher than Kirk.
  8. Stangstag
    Trade value site actually has Luis Garcia as more valuable than Kirk. Its close
  9. Stangstag
    Well actually the Astros have been worried about Defense only at the catcher position, they probably wouldn’t give up anything for a guy like Kirk or Moreno. Its easy to sign a glove-first noodle bat catcher in free agency on the cheap
  10. Stangstag
    Kirk for Luis Garcia??
  11. Stangstag
    Hell no
  12. Stangstag
    I agree, but to be fair upgrading SS would mean upgrading 2B also, since Bo would be moving there. But maybe Whit can cover that next year. Clear upgrades to made to the pitching staff and in the OF imo.
  13. Stangstag
    Likely lol
  14. Stangstag
    Bout to cry myself to sleep. You were right all along
  15. Stangstag
    Expecting some kind of injury in spring training.
  16. Stangstag
    Maybe. But the front office seemed hesitant to use Kirk as the primary catcher even when Jansen was injured last season. He never caught more than 3-4 times per week
  17. Stangstag
    Yeah the weight/body thing for Kirk probably isn’t a problem until he’s already a free agent. He’s slow as f*** but it is what it is. My question is can he play C more often and DH less. Because I believe we’ll need that DH spot to keep guys like Springer/Teo/Lourdes/Vlad/etc in the lineup like we did in 2022
  18. Stangstag
    Still not getting it.
  19. Stangstag
    And for the record, i’m not married to the idea of trading Kirk. A Jansen or Moreno trade could make sense too. Hell I would be all for trading ANYONE on the team if the return is good and if Ross can construct a better roster as a result. The team as-is relies too heavily on RH power bats, a lot of high K guys. The rotation is top heavy. Bullpen is mediocre. Lots of ways to improve the pitching staff and diversify the lineup.
  20. Stangstag
    You said yourself, Moreno projects for 4.3 WAR over 130 games. He doesn’t reach that if Kirk and Jansen are both still on the team. Ideal scenario is to trade Kirk to free up the C/DH spot. For a SP would probably make sense. Teo/Springer/Lourdes/LHH acquisition to rotate the DH spot. Its really not difficult to understand.
  21. Stangstag
    Actually?? Yikes
  22. Stangstag
    Your brain is so small you fail to comprehend that since Jansen has worse projections (AND less control) he will bring back far less in a potential trade.
  23. Stangstag
    Can Kirk play LF maybe??
  24. Stangstag
    Loll
  25. Stangstag
    This is a ridiculous take IMO. Jays were winning 8-1. Gausman was dealing with the finger issue. You need him for future games. He looked shaky that inning. Nearing 100 pitches. Plenty of reasons to go to the pen. The mistake was using Mayza there. But also if he gave up a flyout at the warning track instead of a homer barely clearing the fence, then nobody cares.
