I made a post in the game thread from yesterday just before it got closed. Someone pointed out that Cole is expecting 6 years $140 million. As a frame of reference, that is an AAV of $23.333 mill. Their offer to Machado of $250 million for 8 years: AAV of $31.25 mill.

Lopez vs Sale Let's snap this losing streak!

Palka would be a great SS me thinks.

You did? How'd that work out for you?

I also just realized they only have 3 SP lol so it would be a SP before an RP.

So assuming IL stint, do they call a reliever up and play Garcia in the IF or do you call up Mendick?

They waved the white flag the second they announced Fulmer was starting.

Sold.

They must like his tools or something. But I agree. He's already 22 as well.

Yeah, I think that point has been stated many times.

Betts and Benintendi can both play CF. And I don't think it is a slam dunk that JDM opts out as others believe.

You are aware that Bogaerts signed an extension, right?

I mean, I agree. Trying to sound more positive than the people who have completely written off (aka the people who still complain about the Robertson and Kahnle deal).

Yeah no more convincing people to take the job like Ventura.

Boooooo. I'm all for Vizquel being a coach and working with the young infielders (he helped Andrus in Texas and Alexei with the Sox while playing with those teams) but man I do not want him managing.

Thinking about it, he might be their best option at the leadoff spot.

Maybe a corner OF? Don't the Cardinals have enough MLB-ready OF that they could possibly deal us?

Still young enough to where we can give him another year or two. But I wish he would hit for some more power too.

1 and 2 with Moncada in the 3 spot? I'd be cool with that.

Agreed. It's mostly on Yoan there to be yelling. I'd have to watch it again but does anyone know if he was even at third?

Add the A's as an option. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2019/06/athletics-hoping-to-bolster-bullpen.html As for if he could go for a Top 100, I think he very well could. A back-half top 100 from a team that is deep and maybe has 5-6 Top 100 spects on the list.

No, no we do not. There's a reason this guy hasn't managed in what, 7 years?

Damn. Play should have been to third.

Fry is going to walk in the winning run.
