maloney.adam 962 Posted November 16, 2021 (edited) Blue Jays will be big spenders this offseason but curious if this means one of Semien or Ray is gone? They couldn’t possibly afford both. 🤔 Edited November 16, 2021 by maloney.adam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chicago White Sox 8,597 Posted November 16, 2021 Honestly, if we could extend Lucas for something similar we should definitely explore it. I get the years carry a lot of risk, but that’s a pretty reasonable AAV. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chicago White Sox 8,597 Posted November 16, 2021 Just now, Sleepy Harold said: One year deal is interesting given the QO and the fact he’s barely pitched over the last two years. Would have expected a two year deal to make it worthwhile for the Angels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’d think Gio would command slightly more, but I can’t see the Sox going so long term for a pitcher contract. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worth noting that the MLBPA proposed fewer years of team control in their publicly available ask. Giolito is a guy who could be impacted if that did happen in a final structure.

If he sucks or gets hurt you aren't stuck with him long term. I'd much rather give someone like him 1/21 than 3/40+ 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd much rather give someone like him 1/21 than 3/40+ Id much rather not even bother unless theres a friendly club option for a second year. Berrios just got a lower avv than what syndergaard got. Mind blowing. The angels should be spending on better options instead of blowing their load on a pitcher that will be lucky to throw 90 innings next season. Syndergaard was basically begging the mets for a qualifying offer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
