How many risks can you take? You hope Jake M is better? Does that mean Brantley's out, once he's better? I dunno, just things to think about.
It's the nature of the beast. JV was signed to a 2 yr $66M deal with no history of significant injury history and pitched 6 innings. There's always a risk. Bauer looked great before off field issues took him out.
Rodon and the Astros. There is bad blood going back to the draft when he felt like the Astros back tracked after claiming they would take him… Astros are adamant that they never made the claim.
Yep I’ve mentioned this Would be nuts to give him 100 million Skill set is perfect but the risk is way too high
$100M for ten years wouldn't be to bad ($10M AAV). $100M for 3 years would be outrageous ($33.3M AAV). But ($100M) for 5 years would seem about right ($20M AAV).
I wasn’t suggesting the guys that were leaving would be a ton of payroll. I was pointing out that we have 40-45 to the tax line and those 2 contracts would run about 25M combined in 2023. This, the part about leaving 20-25M depending upon if you want to cut some other low hanging fruit expenses (Maton and Dubon specifically).
I'm comming around to Jake McCarthy of the Diamondbacks. Dude can rake. He has loads of speed and is severally over shadowed by the other big name young OFs comming up threw the system. I think if we trade he would be the cheaper of the bunch. Maybe Whitley and Lee could get this done. And we would have a Solid CF with alot of Speed and hits both lefty and rightys with ease. I'm no apposed to Reynolds but, I believe he would cost us what we don't wanna trade away. SPing just Saying LH Hitter and Steals Bases with ease
