Urias doesn’t really have value. Basically just a throw-in piece.

If Mayo can’t stick at 3B, I don’t really love the fit. Unless he can play an average OF defense.

From what you've heard or just your own speculation?

Yeah, I don’t really like the signings of both Lynn and Gibson. Maybe one as the 5th starter but not both. I’m sure Cubs will be favorites once they add two of Bellinger/Hoskins/Chapman.

They’re probably a contender for their division already. Thats all that matters. Just gotta get in. That division is pretty open, even though I think Cards probably bounce back and win it. Those good organizations don’t stay bad long.

They seem like a team that wants to contend but won’t spend money to do so. The fact he would be in the same spot as Burnes a year later is kind of irrelevant.

Trade for Cease, bump Houser to the pen. Make the rotation and pen stronger.

I don't think signing Stroman should deter them from trading for Cease. Someone posted the rotation with the last couple pages and he can definitely bump Clarke Schmidt to the pen. Might be better to add Cease and Stroman than just signing Snell. Plus, Rodon is no picture of health and Cortes missed time last year.

A lock to miss time.

Well in order to throw more inning, you need to first be able to stay on the mound. Something he hasn’t done yet in any season.

I think you send him to Charlotte and build innings there rather than burning more service time at the MLB level.

I’m not the one who suggested him. I was just correcting you.

Please Angels, please. Traded the little prospect capital you had. Might as well keep spending.

Idk but I would have preferred the Cubs as an option for Cease over the Angels. Not that I think they’re that interested.

With this current group, they're going to need a couple of long-relievers in the pen.

They got Whit Merrifield on speed dial just waiting to see how the Cease situation shakes out.

Low-risk, low-reward. That's what you get when you want to be very cheap.

Definitely, unless they get an MLB ready player for Cease.

I'll believe in when I see it. And I mean not as a 2-3 inning guy.

And has never been stretched out for a starters workload. This all matters.

Of course we all want them to do that. I don’t think Jerry has ever let his GM operate that way though.

A guy, who hasn’t thrown a pitch in the MLB, just got 10 years, $326M. Gambling on essentially 2/$50M isn’t that crazy.

I used to like him but man, he meant what he said. The mistake, from his perspective, was just saying it on air.

Very true. The internet is definitely a better place with that meme and there's a deep drive to left field by Castellanos.
