Again, we have no 1B. Let them learn first so they can both play at the same time and you don't lose DH if someone gets hurt.

That is not true anymore.

We know.

If we got six years of a mediocre OF for Tauchman, that's a win in my book.

A post referencing Rojas's lack of trade value is actually more on topic than this post.

I wouldn't count on anything from Perez this year.

I wouldn't bet on it. Dude could just as easily be washed out in a year.

Yes, will edit.

The wild cards are Cannon and Davis Martin. I do wonder what it would take the Sox to listen, as both have 5 years of control left, but there just aren't a lot of sellers out there.

Here's another one to track: Most losses in 2 seasons: Mets 231 1962-63 Most losses in 3 seasons: Mets 340 1962-64 Sox with 222 in 24/25. They set the 2 season record with 111 losses this season. They set the 3 season mark with 119.

Tauchman should absolutely go to the best offer. I don't think it will be a ton, but there is no reason to keep him.

The circle, the circle of life....

And was gone almost as quickly.

For the record, of all players, I think the pen might surprise to the upside of the trade market. I think Steven Wilson finally gets moved for something (not great, but OK) Also, put on the record for Altavilla moving as well.

I have seen worse Ideas than putting Houser and Robert together to push us up a prospect level.

This is my expectation.

Someone has expectations for Josh Rojas trade market?

Also really hoping to see some break out MiLB seasons from guys who weren't already super highly thought of, or guys who had been trending down after big expectations. Definitely not seeing any real darkhorse breakouts to any extent.

If you save $1.5m, that is a pretty darned good extra HS player, at least. Especially if they also tried to get some comp balance picks too, they could push a $20 million draft budget.

No. That only applies to 2 years in the top 6 for some, or 3 years in a row for others

Better be careful or the thought police will stop you and aggressive lecture you.

Then why was he always swearing about quants?

Wasn't the whole fight before that the quants were making picks instead of the scouts?

So we aren't supposed to care about the state of the team today, but still be upset from stuff from like 30-40 years ago? Weird flex.

This is demonstrably false around baseball. Top players demand more money.
