  1. Bingo. They traded Dylan Cease and Eloy Jimenez for a couple years of Quintana who then proceeded to blow chunks. And they trade Gleyber Torres for 3 months of Aroldis Chapman (yes they won a WS I know). 200 million on Heyward was an awful move. They payed 150 million for Lester which turned out alright. 120 million to Darvish which I bet they regret. TBH the Jays are kinda heading down that same path. The Berrios trade is comparable to the Quintana trade (depending on how he pitches next year), and they gave 150 million to Springer (not sure how this contract will look by 2025). I would prefer if they didn't trade anymore high end prospects.
  2. The Rays manage to do it on a much smaller budget. They almost never trade prospects for established/bonafide major leaguers. Honestly the best thing for the franchise would probably be to trade one of Vladdy/Bo a year before free agency. Hang onto guys like Teo who broke out late and aren't highly-touted around the league. Continue trying to make some shrewd/low-risk FA signings. The WORST thing for this team IMO would be to make another Berrios-type trade and fully torpedo the farm. A single season can be derailed due to a couple key injuries, I don't like the "all-in" method unless you're trading for players with multiple years of control.
  3. There's no "window" unless you make it a "window" by trading all the upcoming prospects. Just try to field a competitive 90ish win team every year. I'd rather have a 90 win team for 10 years that sneaks into the playoffs over a 105 win juggernaut for 2-3 years. Get in the playoffs and the 90 win team is just as likely to win as the Dodgers or Rays.
  4. Damn the Astros have been pretty unlucky with these long fly balls the past couple innings - Yordan Alvarez just misses one but gets a triple still - Gurriel misses by 2 inches and gets thrown out at second - Diaz hits one foul by a couple feet
  5. This game has been boring as hell since the 4th
  6. Lol yeah what the f*** do we know
  7. He’s mainly playing catcher in the AFL i guess?
  8. He got a snapchat from Jesse Barfield that completely fixed his swing overnight
  9. Yeah I agree, not really sure why Snitker would bump Eddie down to 5th when he's been working fantastically well in the leadoff spot.
  10. Kirk with the projected 120 wRC+ is nice to see
  11. "Last week, Rogers was removed as chair of the company after details emerged about a plan he led to oust the company's CEO Joe Natale. His plan was to replace Natale with then-CFO Anthony Staffieri. Natale got word of the attempt when Staffieri reportedly butt-dialled him while discussing the plot with someone else." This can't be real lol wtf
  12. Can Acuna come back and DH in the WS?? Feels so wrong to have the Braves in the WS without Ronnie
  13. Im ready for Wil Smith’s wild ride
  14. Damn what a job by Matzek.
  15. His pants are pretty tight
  16. Daniel Murphy for the Mets and Escobar for the Royals come to mind. EDIT: also Randy Arozarena and Stanton last year
  17. That tends to happen when you insist on using every starter out of the pen on their rest days
  18. This Atlanta crowd is hype as f***
  19. Rosario is unconscious right now
  20. Ottavino bout to say postgame that the Astros were cheating lol
  21. Houston to the WS!! At least it aint BOSTON lol. Rooting for the Braves to win it all now
  22. Holy f*** that throw was insane
  23. Yes, but THIS one can speak Spanish too.
