    Lulz. Super 2 considerations for a 25 year old. You do realize that teams get incentives now to not keep prospects in the minors.

    I kind of wonder the logic of signing Snell to a short term deal that will cost you 2 draft picks plus international signing money. If you are going to do it a longer term deal makes more sense to me. I probably prefer Montgomery but I'll take either one.

    Montero is way too inconsistent and that’s being nice to the millionaire

    Depends on what year of Montero you get.

    2022 Montero was one of the sickest relievers in years.

    Loperfido is reminding me more and more of 1991 Jeff Bagwell.

    I realize the expectations are totally different but just like Jeff, he has come in here not expected to make the club because of a lack of high level experience and flat out played his way into Dana Brown and Joe Espada's faces.

    He's going to force their hands.

    And even a couple of days ago I thought there was no way.

    Those incentives kick in only if he gets playing time... he's blocked from playing every day.

    You know he's talking about a relief pitcher, right?
