No chance to get Semien

Good for Madrigal, I don't have much faith in the "old school" crowd. I hope he becomes an allstar player for the Cubs for the next 5-6 years.

Good morning guys, remember when we gave up our 4th overall pick for a closer that had 30 good innings for the first time in 3 years? Good times.

Cash grab, they will settle out of court

If theres a strike that takes out a chunk of the season i think illbe done with baseball

Braves pitchers didnt start shaking on the mound and actually pitched well in houston. Wow. Must be nice. Thats even with losing their starter for the series. Its amazing what happens when you hit the ball in the air and dont walk everyone.

you ok?

I have no idea, is he like his dad or does he care?

The Dodgers have been World Series contenders for YEARS and will be contenders for the foreseeable future, meanwhile we snuck out 1 playoff win in the last 13 years with a short window due to having the worst developmental minor league system in the game. Your thread belongs in the trash.

No because you could see the pressure get to our starting staff. The Red Sox would have teed off on us just like Houston did. Can't win many playoff games when your starters piss themselves on the mound and cant go more than 2 innings.

im sure they care about world hunger too

Would be something if the Tigers get both Semien and Correa

Can we get a new hitting coach please? One that shows these guys how to hit the ball in the air?

MiLB players are not represented by the players union

or allow all teams to steal signs any way they want, that would be interesting

just imagine the shitstorm if they were cheating again, i dont think they are, but that would be the biggest news story in american sports history

the players union doesnt care about minor leaguers

I don't understand how the FO doesn't look at what the SF Giants did this season (Crawford, Posey, Belt, Ruf, Longoria, all aged 34+ having career years) and not be motivated to revamp the heavy GB strategy. The outline is right there. Contact is great and all, but when its garbage contact and into the dirt it doesn't help much. Good job on the increased BB% this season, but when you rank 27 in GDP and you arent hitting home runs or extra base hits then what are you hoping to accomplish? 17(?) singles before an XBH in the playoffs. We hit half of our balls in play at home on the ground. AT HOME! One of the best parks for home runs in the game.

Yes, we should keep Abreu around just like we did with Konerko. I don't want this window to be open for too long either.

Watching the Red Sox poop all over the Astros is great and all but it also pisses me off. We should have played much better

Its hilarious to me, Don Cooper failed our starters but always seemed to have a good bullpen, now Katz improved our starters but failed our bullpen. Bring back Cooper for our pen! Have Katz focus on the starters!

We don't need deep pockets we just need a deeper analytical department that has more sway over what happens on the field and in the development of our minor leagues/scouting. I am so jealous of the Giants, Rays, Dodgers, Astros, and Red Sox organizations.

The way I look at it, if he can repeat 2021 19 million is a bargain. He was worth 5 WAR for us which is just outstanding. Even with 3 WAR thats good right?

I would like to see it offered, risk outweighs the loss of a TOR starter. If he doesnt accept we get a pick.
