    damn I can see that, but then it’s Dana’s first ever pick. That guy will die for his draft picks.

    Nolan is still a good hitter too. Consistent.

    There is a pattern...whoever Dana hypes from the farm ends up being traded. Look it up, I'm not kidding.

    Drew Gilbert, Loperfido, Jake Bloss

    He will be 34, 35 and 36 during his contract. Ops went from .900 to 740 to 719 the past 3 seasons.

    Trading for Arenado would be a TERRIBLE move!!! His #s are obviously declining. Look at his power #s. Throw in he's owed 75 mil over the next three seasons. Did they learn anything from the Abreu debacle??

    Yeah, I don't see that happening. Maybe Chas or Jake plus an org #20-30 prospect.

    Maybe Dana / Crane view Nolan like Verlander. The entire farm is gone brother!

    happened before.

    Arenado is owed $74 million over the next three seasons; $32 million in 2025, $27 million in 2026 and $15 million in 2027. There are built-in deferrals through 2041, and the Rockies will also pay $5 million of his salary in 2025.

    Maybe sign Goldschmidt while we’re at it. :rolleyes:

    Arenado doesn't have the Astros on his "no-trade" list so he won't be coming here.

    Considering Espada and Brown used that phrase to explain why Verlander still got starts late last season... NO.

    If he has three years left, why not just give Bregman his 6 years. You have to price in the cost of the assets given up in the trade as well.

    Negative, Ghostrider, the pattern is full.
