  1. Willie Mays isn't top 10 by wRC+ either.
  2. More like Delmon Young.
  3. Welcome to the dark side Nick Nurse lol.
  4. That's the hope anyway, he seems like a very talented kid, should go #1 or #2 but then again so did Wiggins haha.
  5. Jamal Murray has been better than Wiggins for quite a while now. Wiggins is one of the least valuable players in the league, and that's before you consider his awful contract.
  6. The link I went to look it up had Heisey on it so you're right. I can't believe this is even a thing that you would know off-hand at any time lol.
  7. Erik Kratz?
  8. He wouldn't get that, but he'd probably get something in the neighbourhood of 2/20-25 with a team option or so. Jaime Garcia who was a much bigger risk, older and never been an innings eater got 1/10 guaranteed from us just last season, someone with Leake's track record would command more I would think. My point being that they'd probably rather have some league average production at a not-unreasonably more expensive than market price than to have Morales who couldn't even do well in a hitter's haven.
  9. Carlos Santana at 2/35 (assuming the buyout is used on his team option) is not that bad, and they obviously must have valued J.P. Crawford as not near-bust, which they should given that he's not that old and projects alright for a full-time first year player, not that I agree with their reasoning or like this deal for them in the slightest. Haniger is probably as good if not better than Segura and more importantly much cheaper. If Diaz plus Cano's albatross gets them Kelenic and Dunn who are two 50 FVs then Haniger and two substantially cheaper and shorter bad contracts is netting back way better than Alford + McGuire, not to mention dumping Morales on them. It would take something like Pearson + Biggio or Kevin Smith + Pardinho ++.
  10. I don't think it is honestly. Morales is a cut candidate and Leake has been a league average or better starter his whole career including a 2.5 WAR season just this year and is only 31. We'd probably have to kick back like a C prospect along with Morales, which isn't the end of the world but I don't know if it's worth it rather than just cutting Morales yourself which I imagine someone in ownership has not approved or something.
  11. That's an awful deal for the Mariners, even compared to the ones they've already completed this offseason. Haniger isn't going anywhere without a Nate Pearson-esque prospect or better plus going back, let alone with them also taking on Kendrys' dead weight contract and giving up Leake who isn't even that expensive and is a capable league average innings eater.
  12. I doubt it, but you'd have to believe that at least one of them would be included right?
  13. Damn the Phillies gave up on Scott Kingery very fast, and seemingly they must not believe in J.P. Crawford very much either.
  14. I don't think Cano is gonna have many opportunities to DH for the Mets unless something drastic changes lol.
  15. They essentially kicked in 50 mill since Jay Bruce has $26 million left over two years and he currently projects as barely above replacement level and Swarzak could be alright but he's also a random reliever who could also be a sunk cost at $8M.
  16. They could have gotten way more for Edwin Diaz on his own than Kelenic + Dunn IMO, and some team would have given up something for Cano along with like $50M kicked in. Bruce and Swarzak are sunk costs as well so it's not like they got rid of most of Cano's contract for only the $20M that they gave back. I could see a way where this ends up well for the Mariners since Kelenic and Dunn are interesting but I think they could have done much better than this.
  17. The Mets-Mariners deal is official. Cano + Edwin Diaz + $20M cash for Jay Bruce + Anthony Swarzak + Jarred Kelenic + Justin Dunn + Gerson Bautista Lol M's
  18. That would be one of the worst teams in the league, with only the Orioles being comfortably worse for me.
  19. Jonathan Schoop non-tendered. Would love to pick him up to replace Travis, even if he's a free agent in a year. Could be a Smoak like pickup and potential buy low extension candidate.
  20. This seems like a pretty stupid deal for the White Sox but I guess it means they're comfortable with having Zack Collins for the future. First Mariners deal I've kind of liked for them.
  21. Incredible player, it is what it is.
  22. Missed some crucial open looks. I love OG but he really cost us heavily on some excellent looks.
  23. That Duranr guy is something else.
  24. Probably just a negotiating tactic, they might think they have more leverage if they publicly make certain players appear untouchable or whatever. DiPoto is no Jack Z but I'm not convinced he also is necessarily very good regardless lol.
  25. They're definitely rebuilding if the Paxton trade is any indication. And it makes sense, they're nowhere near Houston, the Yankees, Boston and have a much lower ceiling than Oakland. They were competitive but they weren't an upper tier team in the AL which is very top heavy, they probably hit their ceiling and don't have the prospects to supplement their holes either internally or via trade acquisition.
