Ok, enjoy your full time dh in a few years...
If he's the primary 1B. If they get a young catcher who can hit some it should be fine. I don't see them getting a big time 1B to sign cheap.
I don't disagree, but it would extend his career. What better bat would the Astros get at 1B via trade or free agency? My vision would be have...
Caratini is good, but he is signed for 1 more season. Playing Diaz away from catcher more will extend his playing career. Having a capable...
My goals: Trade for a young major league ready catcher, play Yainar at 1B and DH more. Rebuild bullpen using Whitley and hopefully McCullers. I...
Dumbest play call in Bobby's career. Stroud designed run and take your kick with no time left.
Would love to see Mccullers in the pen next year. Putting his stuff in the 6th or 7th before hitters see Hader will setup Hader for a lot more...
Again, it doesn't matter how they are ranked. Prospects are more likely to fail than succeed. The more opportunities you have, the better the odds...
No, I see all prospects being far from sure things. Prospects that are top 10 across all the league frequently fail. You're acting like someone...
Shaw was #13 in the 2023 draft. He's far better than Brice and more advanced. I don't even think the cubs would even part with him for Framber...
Fair points, but the cubs top prospect is a 3B. They could DH him but the potential value of Framber in their rotation could entice them. As you...
Cubs have a high prospect... Matt Shaw... They have Parades for 3B and Swanson at SS. He was in AAA last year playing primarily 3B. Hit .298...
Bregman alternatives? Ke'Bryan Hayes Isaac Parades Ryan McMahon Yoan Moncada Pros and cons... have to trade for some, some have long term money,...
I don't see the market as being as robust for him as he may think. He's the only decent one on the market but teams can still trade for guys....
I think I would like to see this for a bullpen: Hader Abreu McCullers Whitley Scott King Montero (flip for nothing at end of year for tax...
Verlander for 14 Bregman for 26 Kikuchi for 18 That gets them about 240. If they can unload Framber for someone like Michael Harris or Colton...
I did my own and rounded up. Spotrac will post some but it should be no higher... just using rough numbers for now... From my math with Tucker at...
Framber should get you a quality young CF and 1B. Save money and fill 2 holes from a position of strength. Brown Kikuchi Blanco Verlander...
I ran the numbers off spotrac... They are basically around 175 million after arbitration estimates including Jose Abreu's last year. Figure they...
Worst deal: Abreu or Hader????
