Sox were interested in Kipnis?
Who's the best option, Brad Miller? Since he can play SS and 3B? Looks like Holt has played SS but who knows how well. Leury covered there for a stretch of time and we know how that looked.

Yoan Moncada switches agents
I was nervous that this was going to say Boras when I clicked in here.

Already signed with the Padres.

Offseason 2019-2020 MLB Catch All Thread
If you keep posting this in multiple threads, multiple times a day, eventually they will sign one. At this point, we all know who is left.

Pretty obvious that he would try to go somewhere where he could potentially play every day. I would expect the same for Gennett.

MLB THE SHOW: 20
It's not 100% announced yet but it seems that way.

Mlb might be changing playoff format
I'm cool with them adding another wild card team in each league. Do 2 Wild Card games and the 2 teams with the best record in the league get to face the winner of each of those games. It expands the post-season a bit without going too overboard. And this works even better when the league goes from 30 to 32 teams. Go back to 2 divisions in each league and then you would have the first place team in each league as the "best record" teams and then the top 4 teams after that get to do a one-game playoff. Or make it a best of 3 series.

MLB THE SHOW: 20
I'm really into apocalypse themed games and horror in general. MLB The Show of course, Last of Us 2 comes out in May, Resident Evil 3 Remake in March, this game Daymare: 1998 has me intrigued since this started out as a game that fans were creating to be the Resident Evil 2 remake, until Capcom stopped them and created their own ( will probably buy this one later in the year when the price is lower).

MLB THE SHOW: 20
I usually don't anymore either, but between now and May there's like 4 games that I really want to play. After that, probably nothing for a couple years.

KW says "no Puig"
I've convinced myself that this is a good idea, as long as it is cheap and they can cut him if there are any issues. Grandal has already backed him and I wouldn't hate for him to be the guy that gets regular at bats if/when Eloy or Mazara go down with injury.

KW says "no Puig"
We're really discussing speeding with his mom in the car? Lol I'm an asshole for flying going over 100 on an empty highway with both my parents in the car coming home from Tennessee?
-
KW says "no Puig"
Dude hit .297 with a .357 OBP against lefties last season. His overall career is just alright against lefties but I would take those 2019 numbers in a platoon all day.

Betts to Dodgers
I feel like the Twins didn't do so bad here. Got a cheap starter under control for 3 years, $10 mill, and a prospect for a guy who seems likely ticketed for bullpen. Probably about a C here. Dodgers: A Red Sox: B

Rays even have a lot of OF now so I'm not sure they are even a fit.

Joc Pederson thoughts
Is Gavin Lux for sure the starting 2B for the Dodgers to open the year? If not, they can still find playing time for all their depth. Would require starting Bellinger or Pederson at 1B and shifting Muncy to 2B and using an OF of Bellinger/Pederson, Pollock and Betts. Chris Taylor and Kike Hernandez are bench/platoon guys mostly so there would still be PT for them against lefties. If Lux is their guy at 2B, I guess having Pollock as a backup OF/platoon with Joc for a while wouldn't be the worst. Plus injuries happen.
-
Joc Pederson thoughts
I assume Dodgers would rather trade Pollock and move some of that salary (and probably have tried) but he just wouldn't have much interest.
-
Joc Pederson thoughts
So you're saying trade for him and make Joc 4th OF? I'm not sure many want that. One thing that would for sure have to happen is if they get Joc, they would need a bench bat to platoon him with (trash against lefties so far over the course of 6 years). As far as everything we have heard so far, they don't plan on platooning Mazara (not at first anyway).

Nick Madrigal will have a shot at being the Opening Day 2b
This isn't a very good list for helping the left side of the infield.
-
Betts to Dodgers
I don't see how? I would think not.
-
Betts to Dodgers
Dodgers can still pull it off by themselves. Doesn't seem necessary for it to be a 3-team deal honestly.
-
Joc Pederson thoughts
We actually don't know what the price is yet. All that's been reported is Joc, Strippling and a prospect would go to Angels. Only one player has been reported going the other way.
-
Joc Pederson thoughts
Dodgers are sending over starting pitching depth and an OF prospect. You really think all the Angels are giving up is a backup IF?

What would it take to get Nolan Arenado?
I think the hearing was yesterday, no?
-
What would it take to get Nolan Arenado?
Nah. He was just running with stuff that was out there.

MLB cheating scandal
What was the name of the other bat? The RF, former 2 way player (not that I have interest in that).
