    that's wild

    that's what happens I guess when a guy goes from a 2 WAR player to a 6 WAR player, seemingly overnight Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has a personality disorder 2019 - replacement level 2020 - replacement level 2021 - superstar 2022 - slightly above average 2023 - below average 2024 march - replacement level 1B 2024 May onwards - superstar

    Hyun-Jim Ryu - $80M Kevin Gausman - $110M George Springer - $150M It is time for a $190M contract! Willy Adames, come on down

    Yeah Kirk is good and deserves to be a starting C at this point Maybe this is the winter he loses 30 lbs lol
  5. Laika
    Ah yes The glorious Price Enforcement Pennant
  6. Laika
    The Blue Jays are getting used again! lol

    All very plausible other than "confirmed by Soto" that one needs to be more ambiguous. maybe he changes his profile picture on instagram to a blue square amidst all the hype (then signs w the Cubs)

    I refuse to read to read the news this offseason

    Judge 1-7 with 2 walks Soto 3-8 with 1 walk but no RBI or R Cole, one bad start love it go Royals!

    Really no role for him whatsoever in a 5 game series If they make the next round maybe he slides in instead of... Duke Ellis? who is Duke Ellis? I hate the off days in the playoffs. Yankees go: 10/5 - game 1 10/6 - OFF 10/7 - game 2 10/8 - OFF 10/9 - game 3 10/10 - game 4 10/11 - OFF 10/12 - game 5 why the f*** do they get three off days in a five game series lmao is this even baseball?
  11. Laika
    yeah that's weird he was good for Seattle!
  12. Laika
    Daniel Norris lived in a van! It should have been obvious!
  13. Laika
    That Profar catch was hilarious Jazz was 100% out at 2nd base in game 1 btw, Yankees should not be up 1-0 that was total garbage

    way too much typing happening about a mediocre result on a free agent signing Springer still does enough things well and at the end of the year I think the projection systems still liked him as a 2.3 WAR player going forward So it's not like these final two seasons even have a "bad" outlook all things considered it's just contextual disappointment that he didn't perform/produce in 2024 and 2023 as hoped. It might end up as one of those weird FA deals where the player is just okay the whole time, rather than really good on the front end and useless in the final years.

    This is pretty funny. IIRC the Braves took on almost exactly $25M in payroll commitments in order to acquire Kelenic. Horrible deal lol Maybe they win a playoff game if they never take that stinker

    Right side is stacked. Those are some sweet series. Left side is pretty crusty. Nobody wants a KC/DET ALCS lmao.
  17. Laika
    AJP has already done it once or twice It's like his best skill

    It's possible but not likely. $55M or so to spend. Pay for one star bat. Pay less for another okay bat that performs like a good bat. (i.e. make a great signing) Pay for some backend RP help. Piece together the rest of the pen with analytics hurrrr durrrr Hope the SP stay healthy again lol Hope Bo bounces back and is that 2nd or 3rd star in the lineup Hope a couple of the glut of 2H/LF/DH types at the back of the roster develop well and are everyday players

    This is why a Vlad deal only makes sense if the AAV is at least close to his current final arbitration projection. Vlad for $30M or a bit more, fine. The upside is there in any given year so it makes sense to pay for the MVP potential. Vlad for more like $40M, insanity. The going rate for a good hitter on a pillow contract is around $20M, and that's if they are younger and interesting like Hoskins/Bellinger, the older guys are more like $12M or $14M, so like you said in any given year you could just get two of them. Or say, Joc Pederson + Lourdes Gurriel + Jack Flaherty (veteran on a 1 year deal, position player on a shorter term deal, and your favourite prove it SP or RP).

    Caleb Joseph had some good insight on this after the game on Sportsnet I think Alonso was just sitting changeup the whole PA and ended up getting a cookie of one in a 3-1 count
  22. Laika
    what was going on with Winker there it looked like he messed up his head or neck, but there was no collision then it just looked like he threw his back out from how he was walking around smashes his helmet lmao
  23. Laika
    Yeah didn't he get cancer and retire?
  24. Laika
    Not in BORED but my BBDL team, it's inevitable. Pretty stacked from a long term perspective just need to tighten up the roster to win now.
