I’d rather take a chance on White than Nick and estimated 11.3 million contract.
If that was the case I think he’d already be gone. It would be easy to sell him if we were willing to eat cost.
Realmuto would come back in the picture if the price came down. He also would not cost a lot. I’ve never heard a single rumor about Nick.
Out of the recent rumored targets: Seth Lugo and Ray—neither would require budget cuts. If we renter Greinke talks, or another player with an...
There should be a few. Archie Bradley comes to mind. If Seth Lugo isn’t dealt now, we could revisit that too.
I agree with you. Just because Luhnow isn't focused on adding an RP in the off-season doesn't mean he won't try at the trade deadline.
Noted.
Based on what Luhnow has stated, our focus on relievers will be in house. When talking about a catcher upgrade, Luhnow has stated that we will...
Budget-wise, I don't see any of those on the roster except Pollock, and signing him would make it even more difficult for Tucker to graduate to a...
Nice analysis, Snake. Thanks for finding this.
I agree with both you and Buck. If Luhnow thought he could have the RIGHT deal now, I think Crane would pull out the cash. Beyond that, we play...

Yes, it's purely speculation, as all of these hypotheticals are. I'm just suggesting a move that might make sense and would bring a solid...
Indeed. However, with a possible rotation of Verlander, Cole, Ray, Greinke, McHugh, James, Valdez, Martin, Perez and Whitley, I don't think you...
I went ahead and booked a hotel room for Opening Day weekend in Hou. Getting excited!
Indeed. However, with a possible rotation of Verlander, Cole, Ray, Greinke, McHugh, James, Valdez, Martin, Perez, Peacock and Whitley, I don't...
Ah, thanks, I was looking at the base salary. So we would be really close at 206.6. Take into account we still need to shed an OF--maybe...
Even if we assume we are at the 181 mark right now, and we add 31.5 for Greinke and 6.1 for Ray, that would put us at 218.6. Take Reddick's full...
We’d have to make it work by trading off Reddick.
