    Rebuilding teams don't usually sign 15m+ vets on 1 year deals. EE has little to no trade value, unless he's coming here super cheap.

    All we know is, scouting is pretty decent so far based on picks, just Atkins is not a good negotiator which is evident in the Grichuk signing and his trades. So why is he still here?
  3. xposbrad
    That will always be true, but that still doesn't dismiss the fact that Atkins isn't good either.

    I think you guys are forgetting this is for friggin Chris Martin lol who is 33 years old. It really does prove just how bad Atkins is though if guys like Chris Martin are getting the Braves #5 prospect.

    uh Kay is 24, Allard is 21. Usually if you haven't broken into the majors by 24-25, you get shot down on the totem pole. I think the fact Allard is 3 years younger and still can develop would make him far more valuable.

    Usually the people who call other people racists are the real racists themselves. Does anyone remember another BJ who was traded who threw a tantrum before they left? I honestly can't recall anyone recently.

    Well I don't think anyone actually thinks Atkins is a good G.M, so would they expect anything different in this trade?
  8. xposbrad
    It seems like the Twins would be a stingy team giving away prospects. We need to find a win now team willing to spend!

    You basically just cursed Stroman into getting injured now !!! Atkins has proven that his waiting for the right time to trade is never the right time to trade. If this team had the Rays management, at least half of the mistakes like with JD would have been fixed and we'd be way further in the rebuild with a couple of extra pieces. Given the market size and potential of TO, they should have more than just a very average G.M.

    He's not fat, he's chunky and he has his dad's body type. Although, Vladdy Sr. even with his monster thighs was never this big.

    Being in Montreal, I love this idea. Tampa has an amazing front office. Wow, if they had a 130m payroll, they would be cleaning up.

    When you are rebuilding, guys like EE are not the ones you target. After a year like this, he's going to want to maximize his salary anyways. Doesn't make sense to spend 15m+ on a DH like EE.
  13. xposbrad
    I think it's a good idea with his body type. It's not like he's ripping apart the league anyways.
  14. xposbrad
    Is that the only stat they use for ROY? I still show him as 0.8 fwar vs 0.2 for vladdy so that's why I am asking.
  15. xposbrad
    Is Chavis not a rookie?
  16. xposbrad
    So he turned down a 1 yr 17.9m deal, to sign a 3 year/43m deal but really 3/37 since it is prorated. So he's getting basically 2/17m deal for the next 2 years after. Looks like it wasn't worth holding out and being greedy now was it? Remember, he was 'supposedly' asking for 5/100 at the beginning of the offseason. Reminds me of the JB situation where that high asking price backfired.

    This is the round we take Jones!
  18. xposbrad
    Yep Red Sox drafted some quality guys with big upside.
  19. xposbrad
    Well at least Shatkins drafted their utility player of the future
  20. xposbrad
    For sure, they would just need to take payroll to 220-240m next year to make that happen, pretty simple.
  21. xposbrad
    Anyone else worried with only 2 plus pitches he's most likely ending up as a reliever? I mean, he doesn't even have a plus changeup.
  22. xposbrad
    so we drafted a 300lb pitcher? that can't turn out well
  23. xposbrad
    I know a lot of people here were projecting Vlad to put up 5 WAR this year even missing the first month, is he still on track for that?
  24. xposbrad
    Liberals just announced it's because of climate change and they will now start taxing HRs
  25. xposbrad
    Also, they need to see just how good they end up being. Jansen is still worth negative WAR this year and Vladdy is still getting adjusted and isn't putting up huge numbers like some other rookies so far this year. You never know how players perform in the majors regardless of how good they are in the minors. If the young guys don't end up being actually good, I think management might hold off on big spending and will keep trying to cycle in young guys until some hopefully break out. It might not even be the prospects getting all the attention, could be others.
