Bob Sacamano

My comment isn’t that deep. He’s a guy who struggles to go 5 often. Worth 1.1 WAR last year. Not a guy I would be that excited to spend $30M/year for 7 years on. Maybe if it was high AAV short term deal.

For sure. I just don’t think he’s the guy you spend $30M a year on. “Five and Dive” Dylan is what I used to call him.

Sale went a good stretch without going on IL as well. Cease, being 29 now signing a 7-year deal, is going to see the IL as well.

Feel like that’s going to be a bad one quick.

I don’t think anyone they traded for Peavy even did anything. This was the point of my post. Outside of a couple decent seasons from Kip Wells post-trade, neither did those guys really (Ritchie deal).

I liked his aggressiveness. And there weren’t many trades where it seemed like they lost. Except maybe Gio Gonzalez and Chris Young.

It seems like it.

Dick Fitts!

Not happening

Yes please. Edit: I guess Sosa is no longer a fit there

That’s what I was thinking

Baptisms all around!!

He’s still hanging around. I think he signed with the Cubs at some point last season.

And less commitment

I would guess maybe what he just got from the Sox last year.

They only held onto him at the time because of his baby’s medical issues (I think cleft lip?) and having family support in area. More of a pain to uproot a guy midseason. Also, the return we would have gotten for him would likely be a guy we’re not even talking about 2-3 years from now.

Think it just means they don’t want to commit $3M+ to a 35-year old, broken down player who will move to the bench after the first couple weeks/month of the season when Braden comes up.

Think he means Tucker Barnhart

I’m kind of torn on Murakami. He feels like a guy who would come here and not live up to the deal for some reason

Ok

I guess you still need a second guy on the roster who can. But this doesn’t mean Hill is a slam dunk to survive the season, let alone offseason.

I think they’re gonna go dirt cheap there and hand the position off to Montgomery. Unless Robert is traded and he can play CF instead.

I’d be interested in JJ Bleday for RF. f*** it.

A guy they picked up with like a week left of the season. Probably insurance in case of a Robert trade.
