Correct. 😅

He's flat out wrong.

Gausman was 10th in MLB fWAR, if that's not an ace than I don't know what is?

Cease is a top 20 starter in the MLB dude? I'd rather the lefty in Ranger Suarez, a different look in the rotation.

The lead was fine, after seeing the back view. It just is what it is.

Why not just say you like Belli and leave it at that, the loops you jump through are unfathomable, man? Legit.

I'll never forget this, P.O.S.

How can you honestly say you see no value in Santander to this team? He's essentially a DH, with little value as an OF'er but bombs and men on sing a different song, my bro.

Lets give Taters a healthy season first, but I agree.

Wat?

Yeah, injuries f*cked the machine up, lol.

Yes, much more prominent after EOS.

You're just trolling now Olerud.

Please, f*** off... Mmmkay

Omar and Spanky has been on this air craft carrier too, bro. s*** don't lie,

I'd rather trade Straw and his 2 options to a team that needs help in that regard for a song, don't care.

He was supposed to return in the WS, so no, that won't be an option.

Okay... Stupid take... he did that for the org, dumn-dumn. *which I would be okay with* lmao

He's already said he would for his hometown team or something.

His BB% is also better than league average? He's going to be our 4th OF'er meathead, it's the reason why his name was brought up in a possible trade for a reliever or prospect or something... he has value and is cheap, this isn't hard?

What prospect charts has he fallen from? FG's EOS Top 100 had him at 37 moving up 4 spots from 41 on the pre-deadline listing, that was updated under a week ago. Baseball America had him at 99 preseason and at 42 on August 13th EOS Top 100. This doesn't compute, dude.

I think I just pee'd a little, I'd love to get him, Mr. Consistency himself.

I'll leave this right here... 3. Shane Bieber, RHP Projected Contract: 5 years, $150M There’s an argument to be made that Bieber is the best available starting pitcher in this year’s class. He doesn’t possess the top-shelf stuff quality of Valdez and Cease, but his on-field performance has perhaps more upside than either. The key metric for Bieber is fastball velocity. During the 2022 and 2023 seasons, Bieber’s velocity dipped to 91.3 mph, and his strikeout rate plummeted. Coming back from surgery this season, Bieber proved that his velocity was almost all the way back to where it was when he started his career, averaging 92.6 mph. With a full, healthy offseason, he very likely could look like the pitcher he was in 2019-2021—a dominant strikeout artist and Cy Young Award winner. That’s the optimistic scenario in which Bieber fully recaptures his velocity and challenges for Cy Youngs. In the pessimistic scenario, in which Bieber’s velocity returns to 2022-2023 levels, you get a pitcher with 3.25 ERA, which is right in line with his career ERA of 3.24—better than either of the two pitchers listed before him. Bieber likely won’t get the biggest contract this offseason, but his combination of floor and ceiling is unmatched in this free agent class.

I think so, with the no CBA deal yet, maybe it craters the market. Hmm...
