    I overly love prospects, but I'm not sure I do that for 2 years of Ramirez
  2. Brownie19
    f*** me - why aren't we taking advantage of this?

    I also hate seeing the face of the franchise let go due to money, but from an organizational perspective, it probably makes a f*** ton of sense - especially if they use the money they saved (from Freeman to Olson) to sign another impact FA. I could see them using that money to sign a Conforto or another arm or two, which would give them a significantly better shot at winning in 2022 and 2023 than signing Freeman would have.

    So we need to upgrade out 4th OFer (who on average will get 400-500 at bats per year). OK - I guess. I hate Grichuk too, but he isn't the worst option in the world. Most teams aren't running out a 3 WAR 4th OFer. I think we have higher priorities and unless we can move Grichuk, I fully expect he's our 4th OFer for 2022.

    This is the correct lineup construction for our current roster. The issue is he knows that Charlie is still our manager and thus Randel will start too much.

    That would also allow teams to turn their franchises around faster....although fair point about them keeping their payrolls down.

    Am I the only one who finds it odd that it's not even a point of discussion at the CBA negotiations? I mean heaven forbid we try to make the transaction component of baseball more interesting.

    Do we know why Urshela's power eroded last year? I have to think Minny is hoping the 2019/2020 bat returns, in which case, he'll probably be as valuable as Donaldson at 1/3 the cost
  9. Brownie19
    Yeah that's fair. I just curious at age 41 what his motivation to continue is and probably assumed it was to win. $13M is $13M, but I'd have thought if he didn't care much about winning that he'd choose a better city at least (like a warm one). Also curious why the Nats would go after him. I guess to flip him at the deadline for a prospect - and maybe Nelly knows that's what will happen and knows he'll have a chance to win then too.

    Can I get the Cole's Notes on why trading draft picks still isn't a thing in MLB?
  11. Brownie19
    It's kind of depressing that most think Ryu will just continue to decline. We got like 12 good starts and then 5th starter s*** for $80M/4yrs?
  12. Brownie19
    Odd that Cruz would decide to sign with the Nats. He can't be hurting for money - why spend the year on a s***** team?
  13. Brownie19
    I think he actually turns 50 in 2024.
  14. Brownie19
    I...I wasn't judging Bo at all.
  15. Brownie19
    Their strategy is to be the worst franchise in MLB. What they don't know is that they achieved that status like 2 years ago.
  16. Brownie19
    Help - what was the transitional deal that Cleveland did? The Ownership is sold over the period of a few years? Lord help me - a new owner in Pittsburgh would be glorious. That team deserves better.
  17. Brownie19
    Those are really cool angles. It's amazing that Bo looked completely overmatched and Vlad drives it oppo with ease. When I watched Bo's at bat, I thought to myself - f*** me - this is why players struggle to spray the ball around or bunt to "beat the shift" - Romano is f***ing filthy. Then Vlad comes up and hammers 2 pitches off the RF wall. The best hitters in baseball are just on another level.
  18. Brownie19
    I'd definitely be finding out what type of deal Rodon is looking for. If it's short term, I'd be all over it. I still find it difficult to believe the Jays will try to lock up a long term 3rd baseman with Orelvis, Groshans (and/or Moreno) on the cusp. I still think a short term fix is the way to go. We need a long term fix in CF IMO.
  19. Brownie19
    Andy Martino of SNY.tv reports that teams who have seen Carlos Rodon's medicals say they are "actually very good." Rodon's health history -- which includes a shoulder issue that resulted in a velocity dip late last season -- is his biggest question mark. However, Martino is hearing that, at least for now, the left-hander is fully healthy. Martino mentions the Mets as a possible landing spot for Rodon, and the Yankees reportedly have looked into him, as well.

    I totally get that - but once the game is on, it's amazing to watch.
  21. Brownie19
    I agree. No Game 163 anymore and no more wild card games. While I understand it - there really is nothing more exciting than a 1 game, winner take all event.
  22. Brownie19
    I was thinking the same thing. He's going to get like 10 hours of sleep over the next 4 weeks.
  23. Brownie19
    Sounds like our Dads would like each other! I try to just find him easy things to fix these days so it keeps him busy and away from the dangerous repairs
  24. Brownie19
    Well I'm no help in that field, but if you need someone to talk to - I know I'm here for you man and I'm sure there are several others on the board who are too. If times get really tough, shoot me a message.

    Beauty - I'm taking the kids to Florida on March 28th - bring on the games!
