  1. They weren’t what was needed, they both balled out for 5 weeks. I’m going to take the under on that happening again Ernie I feel pretty confident in and he can impact a playoff game because of his knack for squaring balls up. Gimenez is looking more and more like Andrelton Simmons
  2. Nope I don’t want to see those guys playing either. A bat first 2B with Ernie moving to best fifth infielder in the league would be ideal
  3. Furthermore, both of your starting SS and 2B are going to be hampered by splits no matter who is on the bump Ernie crushes lefties, below average vs righties Gimenez obviously will struggle against lefties, hope that he can be average ish vs righties Hopefully the Dbacks are ass and end up moving Marte. That is the cleanest fit for this roster
  4. The biggest problem for me is the middle infield depth chart is full of guys who could have the bat knocked right out of their hands Gimenez Ernie Jimenez Kasevich Over 162 using these guys to gather WAR is fine and their defensive abilities have a bigger impact over an entire season. But in a 5 or 7 game series those skills aren’t as meaningful. At least they don’t strike out but I want a player who can be a difference maker not a floor raiser at some point
  5. Whit must’ve had a big fantasy football matchup lol
  6. Bo has always given off the vibe that he is an individual first and foremost, dating back to his draft in 16 when he told teams he would not change his swing The guy who is quiet and does his own thing, the type of guy who doesn’t really latch on to one of the groups in the clubby. None of this is inherently bad and more acceptable the higher end player you are Him leaving doesn’t sting the way it would if Vlad left or even when EE left. Those guys are Blue Jays through and through.
  7. Would be hilarious
  8. Belli won’t be a Met
  9. Jim we were once the Belli Boys when nobody wanted him Since then he’s had seasons of 4.4, 2.1 and 4.9 WAR on a 3/80 contract Now we’re looking at 3/120 or 5/160 with a 2.5 WAR projection Now the Belli Boys exercising caution. Lesson in there
  10. Awww is little red upset that somebody said something mean to him
  11. The fit is still weird and it’s a one dimensional guy but hopefully he pops 40 bombs
  12. Holy I woke up the Santander Fan Club last night by saying I don’t want Cody Bellinger
  13. I want no part of Bellinger. You are assuming all the risk for a guy who will probably never have another season as good as last year Cant make a dumb move because you missed out on Bo and Tucker. I think most would agree Santander felt like a dumb move last year, sort of a desperation one. This would feel the same except Bellinger could really burn you
  14. People’s opinions A lot of people are making good points and explaining how they feel and there is a lot of differing view points. Some think Barger and co are a top 5 offense still, others are skeptical I prefer a board that has people active and posting, as opposed to 12 guys just gargling $/WAR calculations from steamer projections
  15. I don’t think they’re bringing in another bat to crowd an already crowded situation the two exceptions were Kyle Tucker and Bo
  16. I actually assumed 10/350 would get him and that with some deferred cash it might be like 32M a year With all the talk about how his market had dried up, nobody wanted to pay him, contract might start with a 2 (lol) blah blah blah it sure shows that nobody in media actually has a clue
  17. There’s no question fans are going to be siding with the owners this time around. They are understandably tired of watching every marquee free agent wind up in LA who are clearly treating the luxury tax as an expense and not a deterrent I’ve wondered how players actually feel about this and saw Passan said this tonight No s*** some of them feel like that. Anthony Rendon is an anomaly - most guys want to win. Like really want to win. I can’t imagine being guys in San Diego or Philly and seeing Queen Tuck wind up in LA. A lot of eye rolls I’m sure
  18. Ya but that’s not predictive so I’m not worried about that. So many variables
  19. would be nice if Okamoto comes over and balls out Add a big corner outfield bat in July Just need one more guy who can mash at some point
  20. Pretty sure he had like 3 tanks in the first couple weeks too lol
  21. Right which is ironic because the sentiment in baseball media is that if you don’t like 60M AAV for 4 win Kyle Tucker you’re simping for the billionaire owners
