Whatever happened to SS2k5?

Gotcha.

Didn't look good as in he was in pain from the ankle? Just checking his brief stats, it doesn't look the line of guy who looked bad at the plate.

I think that was Guerrero. He means Stephens was a 40-man casualty that was removed during the season.

With all the injuries this season, these are two guys (the Jordans) who probably would have gotten a call-up if not for their bad year (in Guerrero's case, 2018 as well).

Same. But no better time than the next 2 months. If he ends up getting his shot next year, something went wrong.

Left-handed bat be damned. Let's call him up to DH instead of running Reed out there every day.

He has 2 months of control left. They're not getting a top 100 for him, but it would be dumb to turn an offer down that included one.

You're talking about 2 months though. And Miami and Tampa are not that close to each other to matter.

Doesn't make sense. If you're going to give up a top 100 spect, add more to it and grab someone else with more control and is better. I'll file this under "things that will never happen."

Yeah never going to happen.

Well the good thing is, they don't have to move Colome since he has the extra year. They aren't going to move him in a desperation move. I feel confident about that. They can stand their ground.

Yeah it's a good gamble as a third piece for sure.

And then Diaz bounces back and grabs 50 saves and an era under 2 next year because Rays.

Nothing is guaranteed. I would bet on them adding 2 SP and easing/building Kopech back in the minors. It'll be about 18 months since he pitched in a game. He ain't opening the year in the majors.

I was thinking about that too. If they think they can compete next year, you're subbing out Stroman for Syndergaard which is a downgrade (granted this year Stroman is better and it sure does seem like Syndergaard misses time every year) but you probably get better prospects back than what you gave up for Stroman so you are improving your farm. And they could always sell off pieces next year if they want. But in my opinion, they should tear it down.

At this point in the year with this team, eating innings isn't that important as rosters will expand and bullpens will be over 10 guys deep for the final month. Plenty of long relievers will be in the pen. Just something else to consider.

Pretty sure there aren't any.

In a season like this, I don't really care.

Yeah can we get an updated title?

What do you expect them to do exactly? And they probably won't announce a Covey replacement until late afternoon tomorrow (return of Tim Anderson perhaps with 12 pitchers being on the roster?).

So the deadline is in a little over 48 hours from now? How boring.

I would think the Mets.

You can even open the year with both Wacha and Lopez and give them time and determine who should move to the pen (or the minors if Lopez struggles) when Kopech is ready.

If Quintana's option is declined (I don't think that it will personally), I would be open to bringing him back.
