  1. Well sure the upside is higher with Anderson, but ... with that money on there, it's too much to pay for hoping for the bounce back. As Brownie pointed out, if the white sox ate a sizeable portion of the deal and got it down to around 5 million or so... I can see that being somewhat worth it, but at that point I think i'd rather see what Barger or Schneifer have to offer.
  2. I havent seen much change to his swing other than it's a little more controlled with better swing decisions. He still wants to murder every ball that comes his way but he's laying off the ones that give him bad results far more often.
  3. K rate isn't spiking though so that's a good indicator.
  4. Board has issues sometimes with double posts. im sure he saw it
  5. Barger heating up nicely in July .292/.387/.538/.925 in 65 AB (75 PA) 3 HR, 7 doubles. 10 walks, 14 K Davis Schneider also at another level in July .294/.507/.588/1.095 51 AB (72 PA) 21 walks, 14 K, 3 doubles 4 HR And then there's Horwitz in July ... .417/.493/.767/1.260 60 AB (71 PA) 11 walks, 9 K, 5 HR, 4 doubles, 1 triple.
  6. .882 is the OPS and he's 21. I wouldn't put any labels on him yet other than... who knows? Wasn't a top 50 international ranking, but came out of Cuba.
  7. I dont see any reason to seek out paying 14 million dollars for a dead cat bounce situation. We can get the same kind of hope from Espinal for peanuts.
  8. Anyone think Hader might be available from the Padres or is Preller still irrationally holding out hope for a wildcard?
  9. You forgot they are 2nd in LOB rate and only 2nd by 0.1 % There will always be complaints when negative things occur in clusters. Pen could be stellar for weeks at a time, but when a stretch like this happens, pen = bad. White can’t be DFA soon enough though. Bring on Green
  10. Could be on either side really. Stuff like this is why I hate the slot system
  11. July 25 (10:10pm) Bichette - 1 Point - Dylan, LTBF Vladdy - 1 Point - JaysAllMighty Belt - 2 Points - Omar, WryNGinger Chapman - 3 Points - JohnHavok Kirk - 5 Points - Merrifield - 6 Points - Jonn Kiermaier - 7 Points - Espinal - 7 Points - Luplow - 8 Points - Off the bench: 10 Points -
  12. he got 4500 over slot. Way to stick it out till the end for 4500 bucks.
  13. I think if anyone was trding for him it would be with the plan to decline that option in any case. 111 wRC+ against lefties this season, 132 career. Cheap acquisition to be sure, but not sure he would be what they'd be looking for as a true lefty killing threat.
  14. Cardinals and Hicks nearing a contract extension reports Katie Woo of the Athletic. Woo suggests there’s a good chance a deal can be finalized within the next day. That pretty much takes him off the trade market.
  15. I think youre %s on the 3-4 WAR and even 2-3 WAR SP are high. It's probably closer to 1% and 5%
  16. There's a decent argument for the jays to trade for him, but it's so far out of the realm of possibility it's not really worth discussing.
  17. There's a very tiny chance, but I'd rather just see him air it out in the pen and focus on either the curve or slider.
  18. Arte Moreno has entered the chat.
  19. Kike Hernandez traded to the Dodgers. The Sox are receiving Nick Robertson and Justin Hagenman, tweets Jeff Passan of ESPN. Boston will pay down $2.5MM of Hernandez’s salary
  20. Dan Duquette. He was also widely lambasted for that trade for not getting near enough value back. Either way, Ohtani isnt going to the Os so it's all really just pointless banter
  21. Who made that trade for the Orioles?
  22. There's talk now Ryu wont be activated until after the deadline, though could still start against the Angels. Right now things are lined up to see Gausman vs Ohtani. Yes please.
  23. Just watched all his pitches, Definitely has some great life on them. looks like Taylor was picking him up really well, but the lefties were not. Will be a real weapon against lefties
  24. If that was a possibility it would have been done already.
  25. Starting a series with Detroit tonight, then 3 games in Toronto, and then going to Atlanta before the deadline. I suspect they will be further away from a wildcard by the deadline
