    lol it’s all good I just felt personally attacked when you said to trade Kirk, wasn’t that big of a deal. Miami is a unique place.

    I knew bullying this guy off the forum was the right move. It rubbed some people the wrong way at the time but this thin skinned crybaby has been back for 5 minutes and he starts insulting the mods, our best poster (talking about Spanky not Laika) and then calls all of us dorks. But fear not, the Sheriff of BJMB isn’t going to let him get away with it! No one ever does

    Did you ever pause at any point during this whole KK vs. Bellinger debate and think that maybe, just maybe, the LA Dodgers might know what they are doing? When they couldn't trade him for a ham sandwich? When they non-tendered him? When they let him walk? When they tried to get KK? The richest and most well run team in baseball provided us real time evaluations on a player during this whole process, and you guys STILL think he would have been the right call.

    For crying out loud, TL's been back for 5 minutes and he's already whining and stirring up drama
  5. Terminator
    Lol KK has Matt Harvey blocked?
  6. Terminator
    Try to imagine Bellinger saying something even remotely close to that.
  7. Terminator
    ^voted for Bellinger

    I gotta say this was a great post you guys

    C- Elite 1B- Elite 2B- Average 3B- Above Average SS- Very good LF- Above average CF- below average with Kiermaier but more moves likely put Springer here a decent amount RF- Very good DH- Very good So to answer the question pretty much everywhere.

    If Conforto is worried about a 28 year old career minor leaguer then we don't want him anyway.
  11. Terminator
    Yeah that makes sense to me. Tendies would be signing a longer term deal so just maximizing his contract would be wise. If we offer the most money, he'd probably take it- playing time concerns be damned. Conforto needs a showcase year so I do think he's going to consider playing time. Even if he's projected to play 80-90% of the time he could find a team that would play him 100% of the time he's available. Might be able to say the same for Gallo who would have a longer leash for a bad team. As for Brantley, since he's old he is probably fine with resting once in a while too. Who knows how much longer he'll be signing these MLB contracts anyway. Why worry about tomorrow if someone today is offering you a couple more mil? So he probably takes the most money as well.
  12. Terminator
    I'd say we have 4 legitimate OF options. But even if it's 3, there are some teams out there who only have 2. Some contenders even. If you are Michael Conforto and you need to rebuild value with a big year in the worst way and see this depth chart: LF: Gurriel CF: Kiermaier RF: Springer DH: Jano/Kirk Other options: Whit, Biggio it would give you no pause whatsoever? Particularly when there are other contenders out there who have more clear cut needs in the OF? I agree with everyone that it makes sense from the team's perspective and I think the AB's would be there in the end. But Conforto probably deserves to be in a platoon if he signs here and everyone is healthy. And that's just Conforto. Brantley who is more of a DH would be in a cloudier situation. I don't think it will preclude the Jays from making any moves but it could make things a little tougher on them.
  13. Terminator
    Could playing time be a factor in signing an OF bat? As it stands, whoever we sign will be competing with Gurriel and KK for playing time in the OF and then will be competing with Jano/Kirk for AB's at DH. Merrifield is also a factor in the OF. I think when it all shakes out in the end there will be plenty of ABs to go around but could this give some FA outfielders some pause before signing here?
  14. Terminator
    Fangraphs predicted 2 years 20 mil and Atkins got him for less than half of that.
  15. Terminator
  16. Terminator
    Yeah he'd probably get 4 years close to that AAV anyway. We're just on the hook for 6.
  17. Terminator
    Yeah that works for me. Seems like the prospect for prospect trade that rarely happens though.
  18. Terminator
    Also from the Nicholson-Smith article: "One source with first-hand knowledge of the catching market described the Cubs, Diamondbacks, Tigers, Giants and Padres as interested teams at that position. It stands to reason the Astros would also be in that group after seeing Vazquez leave for the Twins." We've talked about most of the other teams. Do the Tigers have anything we'd want? Kerry Carpenter maybe?
  19. Terminator
    I liked him as depth after getting him from the Brewers but he's been crap since the trade. Where's the helium coming from? He pitched in the Dominican League this winter right?
  20. Terminator
    He should sign for a 1 year deal. Fangraphs said 12 mil, the crowdsource said 8. On a 1 year deal I don't think it'd matter too much so long as it doesn't preclude them from getting an OF. Could probably do a team option with a buyout to stretch the dollars a bit if needed.
  21. Terminator
    The Giants completely s*** the bed by not retaining him. What a steal.
  22. Terminator
    Yeah I think getting someone to be the #5 would be smart. Even a shitballer like Cueto. I'm not even sure he's that much better than Kikuchi or White but it adds to the depth as much as anything. Our fringe prospects in AAA all shat the bed last year, completely wiping out our SP depth in the process. Zulu and Tiddyman don't have enough experience to comfortably rely on them either. So by signing a cheap #5 like Cueto it pushes Kikuchi to #6 and White to #7.

  24. Terminator
    Yep, 9-3 with a 3.53 ERA in 89.1 innings against the Jays.
  25. Terminator
    Yeah they've got Descalfani, Junis who may have had a talent change with his new slider and they are the go to spot for mid tier SP so they could easily sign a guy like Wacha. Their offense needs some work and their defense definitely does so a guy like Jansen could help on both fronts. But yeah, it's not likely to happen even though it makes sense. BUT- We all need to keep in mind I'm the guy who has been pushing KK over Bellinger all offseason and that ended up happening. I know there are rumors going around that Atkins reads the board for my posts and that's why we've never paywalled my posts. I don't know if it's true or not but it is quite the coincidence that we passed on Bellinger and went for KK instead.
