I think you are probably right about his projected cost. I think the only way that works in our favor is if we take on Greinke’s salary as well.
I hope Whitley shows as well as James did in his brief sample size.
It’s definitely a good problem that our core continues to grow. Last year at this time, Cole wasn’t even in the picture, and now we dream of...
If DK takes up 20mil/year, I’d say it’s a lot less likely that we are able to pay Springer and Verlander to remain.
Agreed. It might help our cause if AJ is making his case, however.
Mish agrees with Rosenthal that JT should be dealt, and soon. He doesn’t believe the Marlins will allow JT to go into spring training with trade...
I listened to Craig Mish’s podcast from yesterday. While recapping who has been IN on Realmuto and who he has NOT heard any real news from about...
Rumors today that Jose Martinez, Kluber and Bauer are unlikely to be dealt. Add Syndergaard to that list and Bumgarner from reports earlier in the...
So Cruz is betting on himself being good enough to warrant the 2nd year.
It would be interesting if someone from fangraphs put together #s like these on all of the largest contracts given out in the past 2 decades....
My guess is that the stove will begin to heat up late January. I think a lot of teams are hesitating to give out major contracts to Machado,...
[MEDIA] Ken Rosenthal points out that a mid season trade for Realmuto is unlikely for many reasons, one of which is that the C position is...
Good points about the injury risk that comes with C. Behind closed doors I would fully expect MIA to be weighing their best offers and trying to...
....While at the same time trying to upgrade the DH. I just don’t think they are ready to give Tucker the job outright.
Yes, I could see that as well, even if we add another arm.
Well said. I’ll add that it’s also about making $, and I’ll say like many of you that it’s unlikely that MIA gets a better return on their dollar...
No team seems to think that Realmuto is worth the high asking price the Marlins continue to demand. Eventually it will be the Marlins that are in...
I can see us trading Reddick, but I doubt we do it before the start of the season unless we add another bat to lengthen our lineup. They probably...
I think we may try out many hands at SP5: rotating Peacock, Valdez, Martin, James, and eventually Whitley, trying to keep arms fresh throughout...
That’s a great thing about our team. Even losing Keuchel, Morton and McCullers (2019), we have so much depth that we can creatively sustain the...
