531 ops isn't a complete disaster
It's weird. He's literally has sucked for over 10 years, and he still gets chances when he has no upside. He's not going to turn into Schwarber...
The only thing that kills me about Framber are his errors to first base. For someone who makes millions throwing a baseball, he really sucks at...
Blake is following the path of Keuchel, except he still looks really good but is more inconsistent over his career. Over 8 seasons, he's had 2 cy...
Last Spring training, we were talking about Dirden. We weren't even talking about JP. Most of the evaluation is made on stuff going on behind the...
35+25 with a players option. He gets 35 million if he plays well and a chance for a big contract. If he doesn't play well, we essentially paid him...
I'm not worried about Framber yet. He just needs to throw strikes and make sure his breaking stuff actually breaks.
Meyers raking is a pretty big story line considering he could play 140+ games if he does. Dubon hitting even better than last season is pretty big...
I think 6.4 was around what the Giants offered in arbitration. JD asked for 6.9 and won and then got released and got paid 1.1 million. If he...
That's not on him. He was pretty much unstoppable in the postseason. Thats like blaming Mike Scott for 86.
I really don't know. He paid free agent outfielders well as long as it wasn't for more than a few years. The only time we didn't pay was for...
When has Crane wanted someone badly and not eventually getting him. Yes, we didn't get Verlander initially both times, but we got him when we...
If we get Snell and everything goes right in terms of health and recovery. This would be our rotation for the playoffs. Verlander Framber Snell...
I'm guess 30-35 million per with a players option after the first year.
Wow, he totally got F'ed over by his agent. Could have had 6.5 and ended at 4.5 at best.
He gave it to Verlander when he came back from TJ surgery. He would have given it again if it weren't for 40 million per over 3 years.
Imagine being able to challenge calls with Angel. It would be a 5 hour game.
Like I said. I can totally see a Verlander type deal where we take on some risk if he gets injured. If he has another good year, he opts out and...
I think Crane would be willing to go all in on an a 3 year deal. Remember Crane is the guy who brought Grienke when we had Cole and Verlander
Sounds like we pretty much told Boras that we are all in if he's willing to take a short term deal with opt outs like we gave Verlander.
