I feel like a team worse than us will definitely claim him before we can.
-
I get he’s 24 but I think it’s more that he didn’t play for what, 3 years?
-
Teams don’t lose draft picks anymore right?
-
Where is it being broadcast?
-
In hindsight, paying Kimbrel the buy out and offering Rodon at least the QO would have been the best move, whether he accepted or not.
-
To be fair, I don’t know how they looked at the corner outfield spots going into this season thinking “this is fine.”
-
No. There’s definitely other deadlines we thought they would make moves and didn’t.
-
He’s unvaxed lol
-
Give it up to 30 mins.

Neither

Definitely fair and basically what I/we all assume.

I pointed this out to my bud earlier that it reminds me of when they were in on Machado and when Machado didn't sign, they didn't pivot to Harper, who was still available. Weird to have an offer out for Ohtani and the next day not be linked to Soto. Like, if you have a legit package out there for one why wouldn't you be connected to the other?
-
It's deserved.
-
Yep, aggressively.
-
Idk I'm kinda looking at it like it could be Eloy LF, Vaughn DH, Sheets RF or it could be Eloy LF, Vaughn RF, JDM DH. It doesn't matter much if none of the guys mentioned are even RF to begin with. Of course logic says just trade for an actual RF but you know, logic. And I don't even know who else they could still trade for at this point.
-
Well we know what they should be doing but.....
-
Fair.
-
None of these guys would really help much. They've been getting better production from 2B lately. And as I edited, I'd almost rather see them dangle a few guys like Cueto and Hendriks.
-
Who do you want him to trade for exactly? Brandon Drury? Kolten Wong? Ben Gamel? Personally I'd rather see them go the other way and dangle guys like Cueto and Hendriks.
-
Honestly, his best move might just be to stand pat. He's not on the hot seat or going to get fired or anything.
-
Oh god. That's who I am now picturing.

The Padres were actually going to pay his full salary from 23-25 ($13 mill each) in the Soto deal with the Nats paying remainder of this season. So Padres would have only saved like $7mill in that deal on the Hosmer contract.
-
He’s someone I wanted to sign for the 2021 season and he would have been a better signing than Eaton. This year on the other hand…
