    I'm not drinking the kool-aid but I'm a bit more optimistic than this. Vlad, Bo, Biggio, Jansen make up a fantastic core. Add in other cheap/ somewhat interesting pieces like Gurriel, Grichuk and even Fisher and Teoscar and the lineup looks like it should be in good shape for the next 3-4 years. The pitching looks like s*** but we have a buttload of #5 types. If a couple of them stick, or even better turn into mid rotation guys, we are looking much better there. Pearson could be the #1 or 2 type we need. We probably need to make a big signing there though. The bullpen looks like s*** to me but it's easier to turn that around.

    Yeah it's why even though SWR looks like a stud at this point he's still high risk to me. Teenage pitchers carry a certain general risk and high attrition rates.

    The Hall of Fame will be easy to make

    On one hand, $5.5 mil for a backup is expensive but the guy is a fringe starter worth 1.5 to 2 WAR so he's worth it. Especially when he can play defense pretty well and none of Vlad, Bo or Biggio seem too. The playing time and contender excuses sound like a way to cover for penny pinching to me. Galvis should have 0 say in where he plays. He knew he was signing a 1+1 deal with a rebuilding team with top notch IF prospects when he signed here.
  5. Terminator
    Lol you think the Jays are going to sign someone better than a guy coming off a 2 WAR year to be the backup MIF? I highly doubt that.
  6. Terminator
    You might be right but that's not a good sign for next year. I wouldn't even tender Drury. Dude is trash. Urena is even worse.
  7. Terminator
    Urena is atrocious. It'd be nice to at least fake like we're going for .500 next year.

    Add backup INF to the list of needs for this upcoming offseason.
  9. Terminator
    Oh ok so the option was getting burnt this year anyway a d the 1 game didnt matter?
  10. Terminator
    I do hope he gets a look. I'm just bothered that they burnt his option for 1 game. He'd be perfect to stash in AAA next year as the 5th OF but now he's going to have to break with the big league team. Tough to see that happening. We'll see.
  11. Terminator
    Thats good to see but it's going to be tough for him to find a path here. Pretty sure they burned his final option this year with that one game at the beginning of the year. Maybe he'll get a Sept call but its going to be hard for him to make the team next year. He sucks anyway I guess.
  12. Terminator
    Looks like next year's OF could be Fisher, Teoscar, Gurriel and Grichuk. Doesn't exactly look like a WS-winning OF but there's some upside there and it's cheap which should allow us to spend more on pitching. The problem I have with it is that while it's not horrific defensively I doubt it's very good either. Our infield defense kind of sucks ass with Vlad, Biggio and Bo. Throw in decent at best OF defense and the questions with our pitching and run prevention is probably going to be a major problem. At least Jansen is nails behind the dish.
  13. Terminator
    I think he does too. Off to a good start with the Astros though.
  14. Terminator
    So what is Sanchez doing? Is he throwing more curveballs again? If so either his nail is going to fall off soon or the Astros' med team really knows what's up.
  15. Terminator
    He had a 2.62 FIP!
  16. Terminator
    So what exactly is Houston doing with his pitch mix?
  17. Terminator
    Kevin Smith is starting to show a pulse. Up to a 100 wRC+ in AA after a horrible 3 month start.
  18. Terminator
    Lol that's ridiculous

    https://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=sa3010692&position=3B/SS Orelvis Martinez is looking very good in his 100+ ABs so far in the GCL as a 17 year old. He'd probably be a guy worth monitoring even if he was 19. I'm impressed.
  21. Terminator
    I generally agree with this. You pay the most you'll probably get the player though we probably lose a lot of tiebreakers to teams.
  22. Terminator
    Just quit playing McKinney and Drury altogether and move Galvis to the bench and it should be fine.

    Report: Twins believed they could have outdone Mets' offer for Stroman https://www.thescore.com/mlb/news/1805705
  24. Terminator
    Yes, the younger guy with good plate discipline numbers in the lower minors has more upside than the 25 year old AAAA player who projects to strike out 30% of the time in the bigs. Stevenson also weighs next to nothing which I assume contributes to his s*** power. Could that develop more or at age 22 or is his body done developing? He also has a much lower floor as he could simply flame out the next time he's promoted whereas Fisher looks like he could be a solid bench player to me. Is this so bad? I'm all for learning if I'm wrong.
  25. Terminator
    -I like that we dealt so many guys. -Giles was a disaster, as to whose fault that is we will never know. -Didn't get a single Top 100 player though SWR could be that guy. If before the deadline I listed all the guys we acquired but didn't tell you how we got them I think most would be disappointed.
