Kelly or Graveman for Kimbrel.
One year Hahn'll be right.
They might consider it if Hendricks is out long term but Graveman would be the better closing option at this point.
There's just no way they are willing to surrender all the pieces for Soto.
It would be Vera, Burger, Montgomery and Sosa/Ramos/Colas.
There's no way they are extending Soto into the $375 million range with JR still the owner, either.
Thanks for nothing, Kimbrel/Hahn.
The gift that just keeps on giving.
Remain at 5 GB, with the Guardians just 1 behind the Twins now…despite playing without Jose Ramirez.

Looks like the Sox could pull to within 2 and 4 games back with a victory and LAD breaking the 2-2 tie against CLE.
Guardians have played them to a draw for the series, really impressive with Jose Ramirez out these last two due to a bruised thumb. Not on the IL yet.
Eddie Alvarez just scored on a Treat Turner single, 3-2 in 7th.
That’s a new spelling. Maybe he can try it on for his Caribbean style musical musings.
Or Y-One. Or whatever. We need him on the field, or for Burger to take a massive step forward defensively.
Greg, did you even look at his numbers or you just saw the name and that he was available?
It’s okay, it’s not as if there are options growing on trees for LH RF or 2B.
In fact, Termarr Johnson was selected as the AL rep for 2027 MLB All-Star action (at second) and he’s yet to even be drafted into pro ball.
Look at Graveman's record as a closer last year for SEA/HOU.
Kelly more 7th and occasionally 8th for LAD with Hudson/Graterol/Knebel and finally Jansen all battling for those same innings.
Cause
The road is long and
Each step is only the beginning
No breaks, just heartaches
Oh man, is anybody winning?
It's a long road
And it's hard as hell
Tell me what do you do to survive
When they draw first blood
That's just the start of it
Day and night
You gotta fight
To keep alive
It's a real war
Right outside your front door
I tell ya
Out where they'll kill ya
You could use a friend
Look at the positive. We almost signed Alex Gordon for $68-72 million and that would have been a huge disaster.
The Brewers are excellent at extracting talent out of a turnip. If they legitimately believed there was anything left at all, then they never would never have Keuchel'ed him, still owing that much $$$ for a small market team.
