You are basing your claim off 1 FG prediction which has been very wrong in the past and present. It has been reported for months he was going to be around 5/100 by multiple outlets and writers.

Yeah..that's definitely an either or scenario.

By WAR, probably around 1.5 since the only thing that changed was Joc and Calhoun. But adding a 2 or 3 WAR RF we are adding 5 or 6 wins based off last year lol.

I'm firmly on the Castellanos train as well and have wanted him as a FA for several months. I would be happy with either.

His WAR is an accumulation of all the stats that define him as a pitcher. And according to that number, he's been a top 10 pitcher in baseball the last 2 years. If you don't like that, watch the guy pitch. He has good shit.

His floor was always around 5/100. I'm not sure why people are so shocked he's at that right now. He's put up 9 WAR the last 2 years.

The Reds aren't going over 100 imo, if they are even at that level. They still have to fix SS and get an OF and iirc they are at around 125 million or so.

Then somebody else can have him? We have just money to spend on a RF. Joc is just a nice fit.

Who are we platooning Joc with when he absolutely for sure gets traded to us?

Why would Burr be at ST?

Honestly all those guys are trade bait for me. LF and CF is solidified for years. RF we can get via trade or FA.

There is nothing wrong with Kopech staying down to get the year back and get control down. That's why we need 2 SP's this off season, just not 2 on multi-year deals. Unless you are trading Lopez for a RF.

That's some oddly specific phrasing?

Joc is a pretty low risk as well. He's a platoon bat with 1 year before FA. He shouldn't cost anything major and he's going to be worth around 3 WAR. You get into the Hanigers and Nimmos etc, they are going to cost much better prospects and have real injury/downside issues.

79 the year before. Which is exactly the feeling I get if he came here.

I just looked up his appearances on Bref. 206 games in LF, 412 in CF, 46 in RF and 20 at 1B. He's played mostly corner spots the last couple years.

We won't have any money left after Wheeler, so Lewis Brinson.

Yeah he can, I think he's average in CF iirc. He's more of a corner OF though.

Their lineup is already pretty bleh. It would depend what the return is, close to ready MLB talent/advanced higher end prospects they still wouldn't suck. That rotation is great. I would think Kluber would be traded too if they are getting rid of Lindor. Kluber was dangled for a bit last off season but his injuries this year hurt is value.

Do you MF's read or just reply?

That was before Bummer was good. It wouldn't be realistic to trade him now for 1 year of Joc. This was last year.

Bummer, Bush, + i think.

I mean he is. But we were on him last year and it's not like RF has been solved.

I love me some Joc so I hope.

He just hasn't been allowed to face LHP with how deep the Dodgers are. He had like 50 abysmal ABs last year.
