I think that can be true but also...that team was Aaron Judge last year. I don't know what the yankees do to be interesting.

yeah, just hoping they do it right away then talk about it.

how miserable is this show going to be? Are they going to drag it out?

proud of myself.

I saw this and I feel like something is lost in translation. If he's moved I very much doubt it's driven by mlb talent unless it's a guy that still has all 6 years.

you basically just guaranteed sox put Schulz into closer role this year

I will still stand by Aaron Judge being surprisingly good for longer. I get that his body stuff, but he's already a unicorn. He should hever have been able to fix his swing and miss. Whenever I look at college strike out rates, he's like the top end of players who are still successful with a high krate. Also he threw a ball to my son last year. Nice man

Would hate to be a giants fan when they learn what ole JR offers.

Yeah, exactly. He was able to add a closer and get approval for added payroll at the deadline. Thanks, good call.

Wish I would have quoted that last post, it appears an hour or so past since what I responded to and can't even find it.

The phillies didn't figure out their closer until the playoffs. They are awesome to have, don't get me wrong. But, if I was going to give something for hahn to chase at all costs, it would be closer. Twice now in a rebuild that guy has gotten his closer and thought he had his job done. You gotta deny him it. Let him squirm.

in shocking news, the titans are firing their GM. Hope it was clashing in opinions/personality and not some personnel stuff.

lol called it @fathom

I believe we as fans deserve to win the lottery (to select a maxed out 1b/dh type)

Yeah what I love about Ramos is just his insane work ethic. Considering the org doesn't ask players to do anything, that is huge to actually hitting his potential.

Naw, our best hope is Rick is too embarrassed and resigns a la paxson.

I loved Ramos'. Not enough guys read like that in our system, ever. I'm surprised, given the pre-draft stuff, how they had schultz ahead of even pallette.

also they traded all the bullpen arms for like maxed out 25 year olds with back problems rather than trying to get younger higher ceiling guys.

oof, brutal.

He gave up three singles, one of which had an xBA of .120 and another an xBA of .240, both grounders. Kimbrel then came in and every ball was hit in the air including a scorching double and a homerun giving the ERs to bummer.

Ugh forgot about his angels deal. Bummer.

He’s risky. But I also think I’d eventually move him to OF and Sosa to 2B. His obp was remarkably consistent. He’s fast as hell. Still means we need to find a LH bat. If you were a real owner, you could say ok to Nimmo, start year with Colas in AAA, eventually move Grissom back to 2B and Colas to OF. At that point, you could go into year and it offense is a disaster for stars again at least it’s now younger. If it’s just bullpen, you can trade for a guy.

If the braves offered Vaughn Grissom would you take it?

Welcome to relievers. He came back from injury last year late. In 2021 I watched him strike out the side vs the Astros in the playoffs and was the only reliever not crapping their pants. Good offseason he’d be a strong candidate.

But was good two years ago. Between Bummer, Lopez, Graveman there is a closer there.
