And I feel like this happened last year when it was really just about him making the Schaumburg group or 3 group fo traveling players? But if he did make it, what a cool story. Reminds me a bit of our own Astudillo, just this longtime minor league guy who bounced around, did some things extraordinarily well but didn't look or fit the part of the whole job. That's cool. Baseball is cool.Here's to Yermin hitting the 35 day mark and getting the mlb pension.

New York isn't a bad destination for him, either. There isn't a ton of places for them to spend money this offseason, and maybe thibs turns lonzo into ben simmons lite.

Cowards a free agent so maybe just FA chatter

Well for one this was before that cba went into effect.

This was also my takeaway as well. It sucks but every team misses out on guys. This class was pretty close to the cap, though it sounds like this would fit in. Had they though, it would have compromised getting Robert. And would have been rough just getting penalties for 50-100k. Edit: not saying Soto wasn’t worth that, but it wasn’t a guarantee at time. But this makes me more confident on cespedes/colas hitting in some capacity

It really hurts not having practice time really with such a huge mid season shakeup.

Not uh, living up to what I was looking forward to tonight.

More like hector no mas

Moncadas back boys

The odds for Giolito to win cy young should be like ... crap I don’t know what really low odds would be

Walgreens is starting to have pretty consistent availability around noon (like now) for those who need

Robert I don't know . I feel like for a while he's going to have stretches where it doesn't look like he can play baseball and stretches where he is the best baseball player on the planet. Not concerned.

Honestly though why wouldn't you.

We should franchise player tag Rodon.

I get that I was wrong about Eloy but he seemed uniquely terrible at putting himself in dangerous positions and am still against this whole thought process that people who have played baseball every day for like 70% of their lives will die playing left field.

Seemed like a lot of white people excited to tell people they were aware of the tuskegee experiment more than anything. The polling stuff all seems so dumb around vaccines. But they will certainly hit a point fairly soon where the easy people to reach are vaccinated. It will be interesting to see what tactics work, or if just the ease and availability overcomes a lot of it.

Yeah Fox/Sexton maybe. Brogdon would be great but man I don't know that the Pacers, who are just extremely sound, would trade him without getting back a bunch of FRPs. But eventually OKC/NOLA are going to have to start cashing out picks, so it's a tough position that will probably need some luck and FA to work.

he really would have. There are slim pickens next year. You either get ball, you S&T for lowry?, or perhaps you can net Dinwiddie. The rest is pretty garbage. Rose is like probably the 4th best option which should tell you something.

I don't actually know the answer here.

Be wise. Whomever you draft will get injured so no white sox

I've convinced myself on Duvall. They should make a call there.

Made an appt for Tuesday at Walgreens!

sure woulda been nice to have Lastella

They probably would, otoh, they have a salary of like less than bryce harper this year, so they may be getting pressure. He's pretty bad now. I would rather Duvall over Polanco. Now, there is a reason that Miami signed Duvall, so this is where it sucks. It would probably be bullpen.

yeah, it's either going to be the cespedes/reddick route, and if its trades you'd have to target the extremely rebuilding and cost conscious teams that have already sorta stripped things down. I'd say it's down to Cincy, Pit, Bal. In theory, AZ should be there with Calhoun. I don't think SEA really wants to suck this year, but at least would probably wait until 7/31 for the deadline for someone like haniger. Mancini may be the best player. You could probably get castellanos if you took on salary. You could probably get Winker if you paid $1.10 for him now. One guy who maybe you could get since the DH faltered in the NL is Adam Duvall from the Marlins, but I unno. He would provide the power loss.
