  1. The athletic just had an article up with the top 25 free agents for next year. There actually is some intriguing starting pitching out there this winter which is great timing for us. I think we should be able to put together a rotation similar to this year before factoring in any internal movers. I have no idea how to replace Bichette. Gimenez seems like the most likely one for one. I'd also like to see Loperfido get a full run at it next year.
  2. 5-4 over the last nine is great work. Hope for 6-3 over the next 9. Especially as they probably got the dodgers two best pitchers and the rangers two best.
  3. Possible 55 hit with 55 power and the arm to play third base is crazy upside.
  4. I think the fly ball revolution works best for guys with 45/50 power. Get the bat out early, and pull as much as you can in the air, and you can get as many home runs as someone with 55/60 power gets spraying line drives. There's just more available power to the pull side. Isaac Paredes is an example of this approach.
  5. I'd be happy with 5-4. Two series wins and a loss would be fine to good.
  6. The orioles not being willing to buy or trade for pitching is baffling. I still think they will be good the next few years though. The red sox will spend money, already have crochet and i hear good things about their pitching and hitting development.
  7. I guess buying one free agent year? I'm worried about the red sox. They seem to be very well run and have tons of hitting prospects coming.
  8. He's also solidly our 4th best hitter against lefties on the team. And yea, on those days he won't clog the DH.
  9. Actually thought Berrios had a pretty good outing. The sinker really moved.
  10. I'm not worried about losing that trade at all.
  11. We traded someone who went on to have a 2.5 win season the next year for cash considerations. That's a loss. The win/loss paradigm is dumb in trades generally but it is what it is.
  12. Financial flexibility should mean less to us as we have more money. It should matter more to baltimore and tampa and less than us. Making prospects worth more to us and less to them. I have no idea if the actual trade will win or lose. Like we lost the otto lopez trade obviously but that's not something you can really ding the front office over. I don't like the thought process behind the trade. That's all. I promise to stop talking about it though when everyone else does.
  13. If you think someone is genuinely baiting you, just don't respond.
  14. That's exactly Atkin's analysis from listening to the interviews. That's a coin with two sides. Either it means you pay more than market price or it means you get guys you absolutely love and think the market incorrectly undervalues. Time will tell which it is.
  15. Teams would trade pop up relievers no problem if you pay them enough. Its obviously something you sell. If we are bad, i'd sell braydon fisher in a heartbeat.
  16. This is possibly true. I just think at the end of the day you probably get more for this year overall, if you don't spend on the next 5 years as well. I was reading some stuff about the red sox attempt to get Crochet, and how the proposed cost was way less than at a deadline, albeit still high. The offseason seems the best time to attempt those kinds of trades.
  17. I agree on salary dump. They are cutting to the bone there.
  18. I'd assume they'd want to give France a chance? So, loperfido until rosters expand. They need Schneider for the weak side platoon. I'd cut France though.
  19. Home runs at coors are above league average but not to the same extent as other types of hits. They lead in everything else but are just above average there. So, maybe just extreme emphasis on defense. And variety of pitching.
  20. I think i'd want a ton of different fastballs and be good at teaching change ups. edit: or splitters.
  21. I just don't get how they construct teams. Singles, doubles and triples are all at least 15% over major league average... and they have the highest K% in the show. It can't be that hard to prioritize defense, contact, and baserunning. Those are all things that are probably less valuable now than they used to be.
  22. I don't even know if i would prioritize power bats but yea great defense and great pitching development. The Milwaukee blueprint basically. I'd take power on top of that but i'd settle for contact. That's probably easier to get.
  23. An org that really concentrated on pitching dev and designing a team around the environment could work. Their owner is the problem.
  24. He seems fine to me. Generic play by play.
