bmags Posted January 7, 2021 Author Share Posted January 7, 2021 I know Gimenez did well last year but so far I'm a little surprised this nets Lindor AND carrasco. Lindor being a FA makes it lighter, but still...Mookie PLUS taking david prices contract got a top player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
he gone. Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Wow - thats awesome for Mets fans. I'm happy for them. they kind of remind me of Sox fans -- kind of the forgotten team in a big city. Cohen nets his guy plus gets a really nice piece in carrasco. Like others said although i feel bad for the Tribe, at the same time it makes our division easier. Good on them. Go mets. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowand44 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 The Indians will still probably be good somehow. But seriously good for the Mets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volume of young and talented so hopefully one turns into another star type. They seem to do well at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted January 7, 2021 Author Share Posted January 7, 2021 I will be proven wrong undoubtedly but I find this just to be a very strange package. They are both talented and athletic but you will have to tap into a LOT more offense from Rosario and Gimenez to replace what you got from Lindor. It's not like they had a well balanced offense around it. Those dudes clocks are already ticking. Just weird to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted January 7, 2021 Author Share Posted January 7, 2021 I guess my thought is that package seems right for Lindor straight up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vulture Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 They can plug Gimenez and Rosario in at 2nd and SS straight away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted January 7, 2021 Author Share Posted January 7, 2021 Man the gap in offenses between what Twins and Sox will put out on offense next year vs indians, royals, tigers is stark. Anyone worried about fly balls and odorizzi could rest easy next year just matching him up vs. ALC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So pathetic. Definitely more thankful to be a White Sox fan compared to a Cleveland fan ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is definitely room to take that approach and make it work. Someone has to be able to do it as good as TB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
