I believe payroll is now above average, which feels right where it should be for year one of contention.

Bullpen and Rotation aren't exactly strengths but there isn't anyone that I want to launch into the Sun before the season even starts for the first time in what feels like forever.

They're going to have 8 relievers

He's 6'6?? I've watched this dude pitch like 30 times and I was positive he was a normal sized dude.

Chisox

This has gotta be it right? It's nice to have everything tied up in a bow a week into January vs nail biting into March.

Someone needs to explain to me why he's so much cheaper than Stammen and Harris though. Especially Stammen, because I am not seeing it.

He's been very good for the last 3-4 years.

Jose Ruiz

Cishek it is. Works for me. Can't believe he got a one year deal when Will Harris and Craig Stammen are out here getting multiple years

The Boston stuff, while bad, seems to be on a much smaller scale.

I often find myself feeling bad for Farmio, but good lord is he unlistenable

Idk, I imagine dealing with someone you can't stand during BP or whatever puts a damper on your day, and when your expected to perform at almost inhuman levels, that could be a problem.

He's like all-time bad at 3B

White Sox tried to sign Machado and immediately turtled upon missing so I'm not sure trying to sign Rendon is a sure sign.

Legit question for rural Americans – How do I kill the 30-50 feral hogs that run into my yard within 3-5 mins while my small kids play?

What the hell is with these old as shit relievers getting 3 year deals?

Those numbers were indeed across 66 games in the Western League(minor). He only played 7 games in the Pacific League. He's also apparently never actually pitched over there.

Well, yeah, but there hasn't been a particular good one since Robert.

I was talking about Wil Myers..

Does anyone have any reference to how he compares to Moncada and Robert?

1.7 is pretty damn good for someone who hasn't played a game yet

If they deem him ready I wouldn't be too concerned about service time.

Nah, I'm too concerned with how is funky batting profile will work at the big league level. Madrigal is unlikely to be a guy that will be impossible to keep around.
