Who the hell is going to agree to sign him to an extension in the next 5 days lol? Its crazy.

If this trade deadline is just Fedde and then a bunch of garbage nothing trades, talk about making a shitty season even worse.

If Crochet is saying hes not pitching in the playoffs unless he gets a contract extension I think you can pretty much forget about trading him until the off-season.

Man, I am all in on getting Justin Crawford. I would need another piece with Abel but that seems pretty fair to me and am hopeful its true.

The absolute worst decision that was made was JR saying he couldn't afford to lose time. Hell, I would be way more accepting of a 120 loss season had he tore this thing down to the studs and had a very thorough search for an entire new baseball operation. Instead, what is happening right now is what he said he was avoiding with the hiring of Getz.

This is the most frustrating part. Grifol should have been fired when this team started 3-22. Its completely unacceptable. There is no benefit what so ever to keeping him through the end of the season, however, there was at least a chance this team could have been slightly better with a change in leadership. This team was going to be bad regardless, but if you could have given yourself a chance to not be the worst team in baseball history, they should have had enough pride to try and avoid that. Instead, they are content with this disaster.

That's because they're 3-14 in July and haven't won a game since the 10th

Yeah what an absolutely terrible tier list.

They should do a lot of things, you're a fan of a team that has never signed someone to a contract greater than $75 million I wouldn't be getting attached to any superstar players that put on this uniform.

2023: 38 HR's - 80 RBIS - 27 Solo HR's, from a guy that is batting 3rd for 100+ games. Oof. 2024: 11 HR's - 23 RBIS - He has 6 solo HR's and 5 2-Run HRs. There has never been more than 1 person on base for any HR he has hit this season. I would say you are correct sir.

I would agree, if this team was looking at a 72-90 type season. This team is not even close to being a 70 win team, they won't meet a price to extend Crochet, and they wont be competitive while they control him. The only logical outcome is to trade him.

You're right, everything looks good now. I guess we can close the book on this.

His pro career started in 2020. Were in 2024. That's not a ringing endorsement for his durability.

No way, Fedde needs to go in the next few days period. His value will never be higher than now.

As much as this team sucks, I’ve missed being able to just put the game on

Hey man don't knock Subway, you're literally the one selecting the sandwhich if its not good that's on you.

Damn I feel like I saw that post a year ago, I remember that though.

I would be perfectly fine with that return.

Seems way too soon for this, but at least it will be something exciting to watch

Moncada will play 3rd rest of the season, they aren't going to play him "all around" like some people were ridiculously suggesting months ago.

Makes sense. DFA Mendick for Senzel is an actual positive move. If they sent Sosa down for Moncada, I understand that one.

Don't understand optioning Sosa at all. .277 / .306 / .710 in July and was even passable in June as well.

Yeah I was about to say the same thing. I look at best player available as what their outcome will be in the future.

I see how that’s worded weird, I meant Schriffen is the sound effect guy not Benetti.

Come on, he's the same guy as Benetti just without the cringey sound effects. Ill never understand the Benetti love affair, he had no clue what was going on either.
