Well he’s got to prove it first. He was an absolute disaster and got his s*** kicked in a lot last year. It’s hard to be confident about a bounce back. Hopefully it happens though.
A lot of negative opinions but still wondering what he’s guilty of. Is he cocky? Yes. Is he over the top? Probably. Apparently likes to have consensual kinky rough sex in his free time. Why anyone should care about that blows my mind. Like he literally posted tweets of her asking for it. You know there’s girls on tinder full on asking dudes to choke them out in their bios lol. Its not for me but I don’t give a f*** what people do behind closed doors.
People forget how Liberal Toronto is. The moment there’s even a whisper the Jays would think about signing Bauer it would be absolutely shut down. Twitter and Facebook would see record traffic numbers.
But f*** it would be so sick if they did it.
I would love having Bauer on this team. But this is where being the Canadian team backfires. Our management would be basically crucified for signing him.
He will probably get work in Texas.
Apparently Oakland is looking to make more moves. I know he’s coming off a down season but Ramon Laureano still appeals to me although he’s less needed than before.
It would be lovely if they just balanced the schedule. None of Baseball’s rivalries are that interesting. Especially right now
Yankees vs Red Sox
Red Sox probably lose 100 games this year.
Cardinals vs Cubs
Cubs suck
It’s pretty much just Atlanta vs Mets and Dodgers vs Padres.
Rivalries are made in the playoffs.
Lets keep in mind Varsho produced a .553 OPS vs Lefties last season. If he wants to play against them everyday that better dramatically improve because that’s absolutely putrid.
Probably a built in fail safe incase they needed a couple extra weeks for the renovation project at the Stadium. I’m sure it will be complete well ahead of time. But makes sense.
It appears Merrifield will get the lion share of Second Base with Espinal getting starts vs LHP. Frees up Merrifield for the Outfield. They will also want to move Biggio around 2B and the corner OF spots. I don’t think Merrifield will play every single day however and he’s going to have to hit to play because there’s a lot of competition for that spot.
