Jerry isn’t spending real money this winter, or next.

Today? All of them. Colson has shown to be an actual fielder. Two aren’t 1Bs, and both are YEARS away, at best. One isn't in the organization. Are you just Caulfielding names now?

I would start with ANY good ones, but hey, who am I right?

I mean if we plan on not sucking this decade it would typically include a real 1B, but this is the Getz era so it may well be the Utility Player of the Month Club.

That description is very apt of the roster management the last few years too.

I don't think they have a long term solution currently in the system, which is pretty crazy TBH.

It's a baseball board. There will be talk about bad baseball here. Shocker that a dude who hit like Elko would have fans immediately jumping off of his bandwagon

Only the older utility players get that kind of runway. And GMs.

Isn't actually inspiring either. Looks like a Kwan/Arraez type ceiling.

That strike 3 to Varsho tho... eep.

Yeah, I was shocked he put a number to it, especially 3 years.

THEY HAVE @wegner BEHIND THE PLATE?!?!?? SOMEONE LOOK IN ON HAWK!

I said 2030.

So he is talking about 2029 essentially. Interesting.

Special teams has to be about the worst in the NFL. They are terrible

It's almost like you should clean house, right Jerry? Oh.

We went from DIY offense to Offense 501

The problem is last season was wasted with a terrible staff.

Happy Anniversary gang!

That's a really long post to say "You were right", and honestly I skipped most of it, but I appreciate it.

Getz being awful at his job isn't a good argument to have him make MORE trades involving guys whose clocks are running out. Luis Robert is the perfect example of that.

The story today is they always knew how bad it was and just lied to the fans, and too bad for people who believed them.

When you are the worst, and 2nd worst, team in baseball the solution is not to trade for players with short term control. What Varsho did the last two years is immaterial to a team that has lost 223 games since you proposed this.
