    Man, Victor Martinez. Haven't read his name in a while.

    I definitely didn’t intend to make the big leagues and break records for two months and then stop You just have to have it... And I have it. I’ve got a lot more that I want to accomplish. There’s no need for [my dad] or anybody else to get me motivated. These are old quotes. It's not a big deal or even a criticism.

    Nice graphic!

    The P it for Poutfield

    Kikuchi had some good numbers in relief but he still got hit around and had major baserunner problems in those 18.1 innings. He'd probably be a reliever that performs like this guy, year over year: https://www.fangraphs.com/players/jose-alvarado/17780/stats?position=P I dunno. I want to see him start again. But I'd have a shorter leash on him this year.

    You can basically assume how these trade conversations have been going with Arizona. Would you trade Varsho or Carroll? No. We aren't willing to do that. Do you like Alek Thomas? He's okay. Prospect models like him but his MLB debut was concerning for many reasons. Do you mean to propose Thomas for Jansen? No. We'd need Kirk or Moreno to move Thomas. Yikes.

    I think Tendies and Farto would not sign here because of the depth chart Brantley might because he's a smart veteran and he knows that one extra bat is hardly a surplus at all. But I still think it's trade or bust. Bust might include signing a shitbag like Naquin.

    Best SP in the PRWL And his K rate was okay in AAA. Makes me think he has a chance.

    Chad Atkins gets KK to take less money to play in Toronto I guess the days of Toronto having to tack extra years and money onto every FA contract are over?
  10. Laika
    omg

    Toronto has all the cards here. Ross needs to be patient and let someone get desperate. The other trade targets and the free agents are close to gone.
  12. Laika
    Riley Greene Moreno for Greene is honestly pretty close
  13. Laika
    Bowden Francis has some offseason helium. I would say that he's squarely the #7 right now and he might be okay.
  14. Laika
    Even the Berrios contract looks better. I mean it still sucks but an $18.7 AAV is close to peanuts now.
  15. Laika
    Jim asking the important questions
  16. Laika
    Yeah I guess Although, the 2026 class has no good 1B or SS I can see other than these two guys. It's crazy how young Vlad will be.
  17. Laika
    He'll be super young If he looks like a shortstop at that point then he should at a minimum get the Bogaerts deal, depending on the economy and all that s***. It changes a lot if he does not look like a viable SS then.
  18. Laika
    lol yes of course that's so scary to think about
  19. Laika
    I'd probably curve Correa like this 5 WAR (age 28) 5 WAR 4.5 WAR 4 WAR 3.5 WAR 3 WAR 2 WAR 1 WAR 0 WAR (age 36) 0 WAR 0 WAR 0 WAR 0 WAR (age 40; end of contract) Of course he's a superstar so he can always pop off a 7 WAR season in here, or stay good for longer.

    This recent CBA is the first time it changed at all. The league wide performance bonuses for pre-arb players are at least something. If a kid has two elite years then literally dies at least his family will have $4M from his MLB time instead of $1M.
  21. Laika
    I mean it's TRUE! Teams have all this extra money for old players because they profit so much on pre-arb and arb players. Underpay most of your team so you can overpay a handful of veterans. Weird system tbh.
  22. Laika
    Correa is a "hilariously bad" contract it just makes sense for SFG to put one on the books right now IMO. They are a big market team and they have no whale contracts and they are trying to win right now.
  23. Laika
    Yes they are still the 7th or 8th best NL team but at least they have a puncher's chance now.
  24. Laika
    Anyway, good for the Giants. Happy they did what was necessary.
  25. Laika
    Yeah they continue to pay the contract I'm actually kind of surprised the commissioner allowed a 13 year deal like this. But I guess Harper set the precedent. And there appears to be a rule of thumb that teams are allowed to stretch these out until a player is ~40. Like Boogers and Trea are two years older than Correa, and Judge is one year older than them.
