  1. I actually am Zack Wheeler and can confirm I just signed.
  2. Honestly, here. I think his market is being driven up a lot more than anybody thought though.
  3. Yeah, I just don't see it as the best way to allocate allegedly limited resources. You have 6 SP that will be on the roster in 2021, 7 if they get Wheeler. You only need an extra arm this year because of Kopech. It just doesn't make any sense to give a guy like Keuchel a multi year deal if we are getting Wheeler. You can asses the pitching more after this season if Lopez is still struggling. It would make more sense to get an actual RF.
  4. Why are we giving out more than 1 multi year deal? I have seen this argued on here and it doesn't make any sense. 2021 we would have in this scenario Gio Wheeler Keuchel Kopech Cease Lopez Rodon *Dunning
  5. McCann as well if he isn't traded. So about 24 off the books.
  6. I have a 24 oz can autographed by him in my mancave. Never tried it though lol.
  7. We need at least 1 if not 2 arms for the pen. Even with Treinen I wouldn't be trading Colome.
  8. If he can regain his form I'd put him at closer but you don't know what he's going to be. He had a historic year in 2018.
  9. Yeah i posted about him a few days ago when MLBTR put out he was a trade/non-tender candidate. He's a really good buy low candidate imo. He imploded on himself last year but velo didn't dip. He just couldn't throw strikes. He allegedly had a neck thing going on all year.
  10. I haven't done fantasy baseball in probably 5 or 6 years because it's such a chore. I would be down though.
  11. They probably haven't announced Yolmer because Jerry wants to give him his money, just not 6 million of it.
  12. I would be firmly in the trade Leury camp if we ended up with Villar. He's not a defensive whiz but he can play everywhere and has power and speed. It's only a year.
  13. If we sign anybody today I wonder if there's 20% off.
  14. Yeah they put some really shit players on there. It's definitely strange.
  15. Jerry "Michael Illitch Sr" Reinsdorf scenario would be okay with me.
  16. I guess. I looked him up before I didn't realize his k/9 jumped back.
  17. I just don't get what other player we would even want if it wasn't Mancini. This is all speculative obviously. Some random RP?
  18. He looks a tad worse than Castellanos was this year overall but I didn't look by positions. And defensive advanced metrics I'm not great on.
  19. He's played 90 games there?
  20. He's just not good. No idea why they would be looking to him when there are better shitty pitchers available. It would have to include Mancini and that's not even really exciting. I just feel like the limited tradable assets we have could be put to better use than that.
  21. And 2.5x as better? You're quibbling over a couple million bucks.
  22. Yea I wouldn't mind the Sox taking a shot at this. He put up 4 WAR and has played CF and LF around a dozen games. He's a better Leury.
  23. Oracle spray chart overlayed at CBP. That's really scary
