  1. I definitely would've kept Cameron until today and brought up Keys tomorrow.
  2. Don't know about now but I remember Lorenzen used to be legitimately fast too.
  3. No arguments that Varsho helped with our short term goals, more than Moreno would have. And yes we should include any bounty from Varsho in our valuation, along with salaries. If the FO wants to get someone to eat Varsho's salary, which is probably the smart move, the prospet return won't be great.
  4. Gausman is an extremely valuable piece to a playoff team and dumping his salary only got us bit pieces. Getting a team to eat Bieber's salary is almost certainly off the table. We would have to eat his salary just to get a lottery ticket back. Probably still worth it due to added roster flexibility for the rest of the year.
  5. Is there a consensus on Bateman's range? Being able to handle CF versus accruing value at CF changes his valuation a lot.
  6. This has some of the same earmarks as the Varsho acquisition. Soriano will be ready to add value to a playoff team right away but losing a blue chip prospect considering age, pedigree, tools, and performance in the upper minors, losing Nimmala is going to hurt. Moreno has already generated more surplus value than Varsho, with additional control remaining. But Varsho more directly allowed us to get to the World Series so we live with it. I'm hoping that is how this one turns out.
  7. Clearly getting the Cubs to eat that entire salary was the bigger priority. This could make sense if they manage to get under the penalties that have major draft implications.
  8. On the last day of the 1998 season Roy Halladay had a no hitter with 2 outs in the 9th in his second career start.
  9. They also stopped pitching him in the 9th entirely.
  10. They haven't pitched Miles since Corbin's last start. They may be planning to build up Miles for a direct swap.
  11. Used to be Ernie before he became an everyday player. Maybe Straw now.
  12. The Baez contract was a historic albatross but Baez today fills like 2 or 3 needs right away. And he has one final year on that godawful contract. If you think you can win the World Series this year, you pay to get Skubal. The team will have to play well enough to justify that.
  13. The actual doctors' diagnosis override whatever we're discussing here, but the signs aren't good as you say. The fact that Vlad asked for the golf cart immediately suggests to me that either him or Ponce heard a pop. If he has a full rupture there's a good chance they already know from the physical exam and MRI. Getting multiple opinions may be to discuss the best approach to repair surgically. From the team perspective it's best to assume he's smoked for the year, with a best case scenario of bringing him out of the pen for a playoff run.
  14. Rockies bats will be sluggish tomorrow from the Dickey effect. Schneider playing 4D chess
  15. Just 11 more HRs and we're right back in this
  16. We're dissecting Schneider's in-game moves as if our entire bullpen isn't a bunch of 1 inning matchup guys. We start the season with injuries to 3 key starters and don't bother to carry a single length reliever. This game was lost before it began. We deserve to get absolutely annihilated today so that Schneider and Atkins can sit in it and reflect on how to construct a regular season pitching staff.
  17. Odd man out is very likely to be Lukes. You want a your backup infielder to handle shortstop like Jiminez and be a defensive replacement option especially if Okamoto turns out to be a poor defender. We need Schneider to prevent our platoon bats from getting exposed against LHP. And Straw is literally one of the best baserunners and defenders in baseball. It's a tough pill for Lukes who had a better year than Sanchez but has options
  18. Not a bad trade from a baseball perspective. The most valuable thing we lost was flexibility from Loperfido's option as this creates an immediate roster crunch. This makes it likely that one of Lukes/Schneider are not on the opening day roster, or we part ways with one of Straw/Jimenez.
  19. It's not even really advanced stats. Yariel is basically Berrios but only for 1 inning at a time.
  20. Yesavage has had extreme groundball tendencies so far in his career. I say go all in on defence, IKF, Straw, Lukes. Let Schneider and Barger feast on the Dodgers pen.
  21. Not with 2 outs here. But you can see he can barely walk out there
