Cubs should have been all over that over Madrigal (although, sounds like Morel may see time at 3B, though he could just DH and be a super utility type role).

Yeah there would be no incentive for the players to agree to that unless there is like, a salary floor added for teams or something.

Avi hasn’t played with him for 6 years now. Not really relevant to talk to him.

Would have paid him that to play 2B and bumped Nicky to a bench role.

Why?

Players would never agree to that.

Yeah add $5M to offer to cover buyout and take best offer. Edit: or cover half and send $2.5M.

Deal

Trade him somewhere like San Diego for a PTBNL or some s%*#.

$2M this year, $6M next year, $2M buyout for 2026 option.

The House that @trayBuilt

Hopefully for peanuts. I can’t imagine any team wanting to pay that guy 3+ years.

Guess it depends on who buys naming rights.

Who?

Like I said, low expectations. Fedde and Kopech have been ass in the majors.

No, just Cease really. No expectations for the other games started.

He’ll be 60-day IL’d soon. But yeah, it is kind of shocking he’s made it this far.

Jimmy Lambert, Gavin Sheets

Not for a team’s best prospects but maybe multiple decent ones.

Yeah would think you would trade Santander for prospects (or a one for one swap of a rental SP) and plug Kjerstad in RF, who is ready. Then you have more guys to deal now or in the summer for pitching.

Attach Colas in a Cease deal if you might get 2 OFs back from a team for him and they’re worried about OF depth. f*** it.

The fact he hasn’t downplayed everyone’s reaction is enough. Plus he’s a dude who’s connected. Getz isn’t going to tell Bruce when asked if O’s called.

This.

Uhhh yeah he did. Of course nothing is close and may not happen but he is absolutely alluding to the O’s calling. He would have said that it was just his opinion after everyone reacted to it.

Bauer would league minimum so if he’s a problem, you just cut him. Not really a huge gamble.
