  1. They're all a bunch of cheap, lying bastards.
  2. The Rockies are MLB's laughingstock though. There is virtually zero chance of winning there. If he feels he has nothing more to prove on that regard, I can think of worse places to go than Denver.
  3. Scott Boras is great at his job. Unfortunately, sometimes you have to sign with the Rockies.
  4. Their actual payroll this year will be well below the CBT calculations. I figured the budget was about 15M below the CBT limit. Their real money payroll is at $180M but their CBT payroll is at $211M Without Kimbrel, but with Conforto on a 4/88 only would ad $6M to their real money payroll.
  5. His market would have been much lower with the QO attached.
  6. If they didn't pick up Kimbrel, even with all of the moves they've made they would have plenty of room under the CBT for Conforto+midseason additions. I'm fine with not giving Rodon the QO. Let someone else assume all of the risk there. I think that if Rodon got the QO he would have accepted it.
  7. If the Astros get Correa back I have at least them and Toronto ahead of the Sox. Possibly Tampa as well.
  8. People forget than Vaughn and Sheets are statues in RF. They're a joke out there. Vaughn is hideable in LF. Sheets is 1B/DH only.
  9. They're trying to win the WS, not the $/WAR title.
  10. They probably have to move Kimbrel first. They're not going to risk going into the tax by getting stuck with Kimbrel.
  11. Laureano is yet another righty though. And he did roids.
  12. Laureano is an icky cheater. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/31974892/oakland-outfielder-ramon-laureano-suspended-80-games-ped-violation
  13. At this point, I'm in the Vaughn+ for Bryan Reynolds camp. I'm a big fan of Reynolds.
  14. I think there's also extension potential with Manaea.
  15. Could you imagine how we'd all be freaking out about losing Soto right now if we had him?
  16. Could you just fucking imagine if the Sox had Bryce Harper in RF? Could you imagine?
  17. I didn't think so, but had some wishful thinking there.
