Bob Sacamano

Same

He’s 19 but he also seems to draw a lot of walks which is nice.

After hearing that it’s steep, it feels a little disappointing.

Who knows, dude may even end up pitching in a game in Korea considering their next games after their first and second game are a week later. Might as well do something different and have him come out of the pen after Darvish or Musgrove.

Thinking the same thing.

Or does seem odd but whatever. And Maldonado is going nowhere…yet.

Yeah but in a trade like this, if it’s a final piece, it’s nothing to get mad about

We know it’s 5 for sure?

Happy to have you

Yeah, he doesn’t really actually have value here and is a last piece

This is on par with what we’ve heard all offseason: Getz was targeting pitching in return for Cease.

Morisi’s Tweet on mlbtr article says “they are among the players”

Aren’t we all

Yeah aim higher. You figure an overpaid one year deal to Lorenzen to avoid a multi-year deal would have to not be that far off of what Montgomery would get for his first year.

Get Montgomery instead

The man is trying to save his job. Although the lineup doesn’t look like it lol

It’s not really about Lee, more that they just burned $4M on someone so terrible to play instead. Idc if Lee is in the minors but maybe find a better backup - or starter.

Still wish they would have just paired Stassi up with Lee and split the playing time and saved the $4M on Maldonado who is old and terrible. Or just signed a better backup over Maldonado.

This is the only time I've really felt like something might have traction. I don't really get too invested in thinking it's 100% going down just because we see the teams are talking until I see it is actually happening.

Will admit, there are too many posters here who see that they are talking Cease with a team and automatically assume that means a deal is on the verge of happening in the next day.

Yeah he’s actually hit fine this spring.

Only way I can see Sheets making the team out of ST, injuries aside, would be they decide he won the LHH RF spot with his bat over Fletcher.

I’m usually ok with this if it means the younger guys are playing every day in the minors. But in this case, you would think Sosa would be able to take away playing time from Lopez or DeJong if he hit well in his limited playing time.

Same. This just seems to confirm it. Although, Fletcher continuing to not hit could make it interesting. (gulps at the thought of Moose making the bench and Sheets platooning in RF to start the year)

Sooooo Mendick is going to make it?
