Boob strikes again. Says we're interested in both Semien and Ray and they sign with someone else.

I'm gonna guess the Sox were interested but weren't willing to go above $100 million or 5 years.

At least he's not signing with an AL Central team. We can't hit that guy to save our lives.

Oh damn. I'll need to sharpen my pitchfork tonight then.

Aren't there 2 more days until the work stoppage? I'll wait until then to be really pissed off that we did nothing.

I'm still not sure why they decided to trade Gallo when they were going to spend a massive amount of money this off-season to get better. It's not like the Yankees wow'd them with their offer.

Remember when nobody wanted to work or play for the Mets like 2 weeks ago? I guess money does solve some things.

I thought Scherzer would easily get 3 years and 100+ million. I didn't think he'd get 3 years and $130 million though. Cohen really wanted Scherzer.

Just need Nightengale to tweet about it so he ends up signing with the Dodgers.

Stallings catches against lefties, Grandal against righties. Grandal and Sheets platoon at DH.

He was above average last year. I thought he was hitting the ball hard, just not very far. Which is why I thought the ball change sapped a lot of his power. If TA hit with the old ball last year he probably would have hit 30+ homers. He was definitely on track for that in the shortened 2020 season. I really think the ball change affected some of the mid-power guys in baseball.

He follows 69 people. That should tell you about the seriousness of that account lol.

I doubt Javy or Story would want to play 2B when they're better defensively than TA is at SS.

lmao all you had to do was look at his name to know it's a troll account.

Probably had to do more with the ball than COVID. Other than him looking like he partied too hard the night before at times, I don't think long COVID was the reason Yoan couldn't hit homers last year.

You can look at his BABIP and think he was lucky, but he basically halved his strikeout % from 2020 and made way more contact. In the zone and out of it. There was a ton to like about what Robert did after he came back from his injury.

Robert made meaningful adjustments to his swing that fixed the reasons why he slumped so hard in September of 2020. He's still not anywhere near a finished product at the plate and he probably isn't as good as the numbers indicated after he came back, but I think he's far beyond the struggles he had in late 2020. I still think the biggest obstacle to him becoming Cuban Mike Trout is his health.

I trust Mike Hawk more than this guy. This is the account who thought Kopech for Gallo was fair.

Especially for a guy who had dead arm in the playoffs. Don't get me wrong, Max is great, but paying him $40 million when he's gonna be 41 isn't gonna be fun.

It's the long form of Mike Hawk.

Manaea.

I don't think they'd go this hard if the Matz thing didn't happen the way it did. For Scherzer to sign with the Mets, they must have really outbid everyone else.

I said the Matz thing pissed Cohen off and he was gonna go all-in. If they really land Scherzer I think that counts as all-in.

Ha what about now?

Pretty fair deal. I think Ray will get something similar.
