Why did I just know you would push back on this. So it's "old school thinking"? They won a F'n WS two years ago with him hitting 3rd and who knows...
I don't get hitting Yordan 2nd. We want guys on base when he's hitting. Altuve + Bregman will get on base at a higher rate then the bottom of the...
Or maybe it had to do with them playing during a time that wasn't soft. The league was WAY rougher back then. If you came down the lane you were...
I'm not concerned, but like I said, those dudes mentioned certainly have question marks.
I share your excitement for the backend of the pen, but every other guy you mentioned (despite having "elite stuff") also have huge question...
Would have no problem bringing Stanek back
In order for the JV vesting clause to kick in he needs to get to 140 innings. If he Avg 6 innings per start that would require him to have 23...
If JV option vests his '25 luxury tax # is only 17 mil (Mets paying a large chunk of it).
Jim Crane, "while I'm here the window will never close".
With all the moves the Dodgers made this off-season, if I were a betting man, I'd still take the Braves or Phillies to come out of the National...
Say whatever you want about Neris but he helped us win a ring!!!
I understand how it works. I know it's a pipe dream of trying to find a way to keep Bregman around but I've come to the conclusion (as most have)...
Deferred $$ is Deferred $$ (through a trade or signing someone in FA) and Crane was willing to take it on (62.5 mil so we're not talking about...
You do realize that Crane deferred 62.5 mil to Greinke? So deferring money to make the #s work has been a solution. Now whether or not it's a...
I get it but that's probably what he's going to get on the open market. Maybe he may take a little less to stay with the Stros but whatever the #...
Would be interesting to know if Bregman (and the Astros) would entertain doing what the Dodgers did with Ohtani and defer some of the contract?...
Bregman could just as easily turn around to the Astros and say "you have all of this money coming off the books in '25 so knowing that offer me a...
Interesting. If Bellinger is wanting 150-200 mil I would prefer they use that money towards potentially resigning Bregman.
Agree. Hopefully Snake is right!! I hope I'm wrong.
I have to say I'm amazed at how many on here continue to pencil in Whitley as part of the bullpen. Don't get me wrong I'm still pulling for him,...
