I predict that you're right

Wouldn't mind EE, but only as a backup to JDM and Donaldson

Hard to find flagrant overspending on the WS Champion Nats, with maybe the exception of Corbin, almost all of their guys acquired in FA are on fair deals and not on Ellsbury, Harper, Machado, Fielder, Pujols, Cano overpays The core of this team is here, just need to add a few pieces and develop properly

Difference between overspending and making a couple big splashes CWS can't afford to make as many financial mistakes LAD, BOS, and NYY and still compete

What tables has CWS sat at? Machado, Tanaka, who else?

JDM, Puig, EE, Miley would all make sense on those terms

Just checked...out for the majority of 2020 at least...Why the hell would we pay him for a year of nothing? Please no

Is Betenaces out for '20?

If you could address both in FA, do it (JDM, Puig, Castellanos) Only blockbuster RF I'd target is Betts and Haniger if he's being sold low Still reluctant to totally count out Adolfo, Rutherford, and Walker in 2021-ish

Prediction: They don't even have a seat at the table

I don't necessarily disagree with this Have to be cautious in MLB FA since the vast majority of MLB FAs are 30+ Also, bad contracts limit teams incredibly, don't wanna be stuck in that hole Exactly why I don't wanna over pay anyone (Wheeler, Bumgarner, Ozuna) Term and money have to be right

Means nothing, but is there a deeper mock or is this it?

Would absolutely love Kendrick off the bench, can still hit and is versatile Just feel like we could do better at DH (JDM, Donaldson, EE)

I'm all for JDM as well and don't think that's far fetched at all...far more likely than Cole, Strasburg, Rendon

Nor am I...I could potentially get behind that

Would be super pleased with this frankly, we'll see

Trying to find his UBER rating Exactly why we shouldn't get our hopes up in FA Precisely, don't get why CWS doesn't participate Thought I was the only one who heard that anecdote from Buck/Smoltz, unreal

1 more open spot

Grandal is agreat player and would welcome him with open arms, but don't we have bigger needs than a C? Like SP, RF, DH, and as of now, 1B

Yeah I wouldn't hate EE (although I don't get that parrot BS) on a 1-2 year deal...But would rather shoot higher for JDM or Donaldson on a short term deal...Please don't settle for Howie Kendrick as the starting DH She's not an employee of this ball club

Yup As we see last night with Soto and Robles

Wonder if they can pay both him and Rendon (I would assume yes)

Yup, hard to see him in any other jersey

His career high in RBIs as well as a strong all around season bodes well for him to continue to produce at a similar level for 2-3 more years Chief
