    Sounds like AA was under specific directives not to really even try. Too bad, but I guess Atlanta is happy with the title, will up the prices on everything this year due to the hype and go back to be being a middling club that might luck into the expanded playoffs because their division is a joke. But, at least they got Rosario back. /sarcasm

    Bird would be the lefty on the bench rather than McGuire, who would have been previously punted into the sun, where he belongs.
  3. John_Havok
    As much as I'd love to get him, I think it's past the point of possible unless there's a lot going right and wrong at the same time nearing the deadline.
  4. John_Havok
    I'm aware, just saying that his numbers in AAA last year were nothing to be super hyped about like the other poster seemed to be.
  5. John_Havok
    Epic shot fired.
  6. John_Havok
    It would be for sure. you never have to worry about mistakes or injuries since you can just buy your way out if you need to. Not that the Dodgers make a lot of mistakes honestly.

    You missed the " for a 28 year old in AAA part " .... a 28 year old in AAA should be destroying AAA, not being merely above average.

    Look at his 2020 splits. he was pretty much equal in all fields. In 2019 he was pull-dominant until it was a high leverage situation, then... spray hitter, and hit like dogshit. I'm betting his quote was moreso indicating he plans on continuing his pull-heavy approach in all situations from 2021.

    He's probably the "throw s*** at the wall and see if it sticks" option for LHB off the bench.
  10. John_Havok
    Maybe someone told him what he looked like with a mustache.
  11. John_Havok
    Don't get your hopes too high unless he has acquired a bionically repaired ankle.

    I actually think they Jays should take it one step further. If Cleveland is so hung up on getting Manoah, say... fine. You can have Manoah, Moreno, Biggio and Kirk ++ .... we get Bieber and J Ram. Go all in like a boss - and still have Groshans and Orelvis in the fold.
  13. John_Havok
    Very true. Just saying that his good year vs a Biggio good year is pretty significant for a team that's trying to get over the 95-ish wins threshold. By no means is trading for him needed, but to think that an offer of Pearson, Kirk and Biggio would even come close to getting a deal done is pretty silly. (not your words, i know). Plus, when talking about this trade vs the Olson trade and trying to compare... gotta remember that different teams value different players and prospects differently, not to mention that Olson is a 1b, vs a plus defending 3b (or 2b i guess) with roughly equal offensive output. That's a pretty big difference.
  14. John_Havok
    I dont care for the fact that the rental car he decided on was a Toyota sedan.
  15. John_Havok
    The difference between J-Ram and a comeback version of Biggio is pretty significant. Ramires is a 6-8 WAR player. A Biggio comeback year would have him between 2 and 3.
  16. John_Havok
    You forgot Hatch, Thornton and Kay. All will be in the mix for sure though I don't know what their option status is

    TODAY: Bauer’s administrative leave has been extended another month, through April 16 (Jorge Castillo of The Los Angeles Times was among those to report the news.) The timing ensures that Bauer will miss at least the first week of the regular season.
  18. John_Havok
    McGuire is still here.
  19. John_Havok
    He probably needs less than 2 weeks to get his timing. That's really all hitters need.
  20. John_Havok
    Tampa isnt dumb with their money though, they probably felt like adding 25 million for Freeman, while having Franco around at a reasonable rate would be the next step to the title. They're already a playoff team, and adding the final pieces to get those playoff Ws doesn't come cheap.
  21. John_Havok
    Yeah, that might be what the report was alluding too when they said he had an offer that would have given him more money, but turned it down to go to SoCal.
  22. John_Havok
    I give the edge to Colorado, because they have money and they're still incredibly dumb with what they do with it. That's no tto say Cinci hasn't made some dumb money moves, but their ability to be dumb is restricted by lack of money. If Cincinatti had Colorado money, it would be a tie.
  23. John_Havok
    The Rays apparently had a decent offer in to Freeman also, 6/150 accoridng to the talking heads on MLB network.
  24. John_Havok
    That's kinda the perfect way to describe that team. it would not have shocked me in the least to have heard of Donaldson having hit someone with a folding chair.
  25. John_Havok
    I don't think anyone here is ripping them for being *******s. most of us here could give a flying f*** as long as they can play baseball well. I think it's just moreso giving credit to Gibbons for managing the massive egos in that room and what it must have taken on a daily basis to ensure they all co-existed without killing each other
