What? If Kluber is healthy, no chance.

I didn't say it's my preference lol

I'm expecting Garrett Richards.

He will probably get more playing time over there. That position is almost a black hole offensively for them.

I've also seen 4 different ways over the past month or so.

I like that. Maybe an option on there too?

Have the foodies said anything today about Kluber?

Definitely under 5 mill.

No. I believe the roster was at 39.

His best shot may be with an organization at this point. Trade him to like Pittsburgh or somewhere where he can catch most of the time. Maybe get some 1B at bats without Bell there.

Just barely under the luxury tax, but damn that would be sick.

It's definitely a need.

They signed him today?

That last paragraph really hits home for me.

Oh yeah that makes sense.

And an open spot on the 40-man. As Dick said, could just be a minor trade for non- 40 man player.

That's what I was thinking. What's the 40-man at now? Edit: just checked. It's at 39 so they don't need to make room for Hendriks.

It would truly be "Theo's League."

Let him go to the minors to work on some tweaks before getting called back up for a spot start/September call up.

If he's pitching well enough, he's not in danger of losing his spot. If Cease is pitching well, Kopech will just have to pitch in the minors until there is an injury.

Oh gotcha.

Who knows if that is accurate or not. I just figured Madrigal would change his number to 12 or something.

Giolito, Keuchel, Lynn, Kluber, Cease. Let's make it happen.

There is a looot still out there. Even the top free agents from this class are all mostly out there.

Benintendi and Eaton both seem to have some health concerns. Eloy would still likely see a lot of time in the OF. You can play him in LF and let Eaton DH once or twice a week (especially against lefties when you may sit Benintendi in favor of Engel in RF), or let Benintendi DH once or twice a week as well. Not really in favor of dealing for Benintendi though. If they were to add a corner OF, I would rather just sign Pederson, Bradley (play him in a corner and have Eloy mostly DH), etc. They would increase their payroll dealing Lopez for Benintendi anyway.
