I am thank you very much. Cant wait to unleash this at games ?

Hoo boy I think I moved onto Danny Duffy from Drew Smyly

I’m starting to be an acolyte to fathoms vibes only approach to team building

What's your vibes take on Baez?

While I still think Cashman is good, I think yankee fans should be upset. Since that group left for Miami it hasn't felt like yankees are bringing the same overwhelming talent engine LAD brings. If you are a yankee fan, you should judge them by the other key franchises. And LAD is running circles around NYY in their process. If you are Steinbrenner, wouldn't you want to get David Stearns for you and bring his Ace factory to the bronx rather than signing pitchers for 13 years and having to figure out how to cycle them through? Anyway, yes this is my poor yankees fans speech.

Okay but have you considered we'd have a backup catcher?

This is correct.

Well, have to say that while Correa would fit on any team, he's not playing 2b here. And while Baez is a gamer, you couldn't pick a less appealing offensive profile for this team than him. Story, less extreme version of that, but our infield defense would be much, much improved.

At least I think people accept now that signing Soler and Rosario doesn't = World Series.

Pretty amazing he got that! ATL knows what it wants and goes and gets it.

I think you will win this bet.

Increases overall revenue though, no?

This reminds me of when the sox were in the penalty with Robert and had years to specifically focus on the 2019 intl class and they walked away with Yolbert Sanchez and sent the rest to texas for lolz.

Like, "at their new AAVs, Seager and Semien would be >50% ($228) of what Texas has spent on payroll over the last 4 years ($410M)" Still impressive and shows how they will be operating at a considerably higher annual budget and doesn't do the stupid taking the lump sum of the contract as if its paid out today.

I will never accept cutesy framing like this and it is so offensive to me

it's almost better for him. He's the new JA Happ "get me a lefty that can bank me a 4.5 ERA"

confused as to whether NYY is ever gonna come to bat here.

these prices are completely unsurprising minus scherzer.

Well, hope Correa avoids DET.

wellp.

I'd be a fan.

ah, love that feeling of knowing nothing will happen, but just going thru the motions of waiting for the final gun.

oh I know it.

Starting to prep my Drew Smyly material
