2021 Offseason Prediction: Who We Lose and What Will Be Our Needs?
Woodruff/hader would cost a fortune. More than what we got for sale. Say goodbye to kopech, vaughn, madrigal, and probably two more top 5-10 prospects to get those two

2021 Offseason Prediction: Who We Lose and What Will Be Our Needs?
I dont think we need a left handed right fielder just for balance. A lot of our guys hit righties just fine. Robert, eloy, yasmani, and moncada all have better splits against righties than lefties. Abreu hits righties to the tune of an .850 ops. Mazara (who is a left handed right fielded) hits lefties much better than righties. Thats 6 guys who hit righties to the tune of an .800 ops or better throughout their careers. Historically edwin has hit righties well, but this year he has been awful against them. Anderson and mcann both struggle a bit against righties also. Engel also cant hit righties to save his life. Springer on the other hand, even though hes a righty, hits righties at an .825 ops. We dont need a left handed bat just for the sake of having a left handed right fielder. We already have that (mazara). We just need a good right fielder period. Our struggles this year against righties (if you can call it that, were still above league average ops against righties) has more to do with lineup construction than they players we have on the roster.

Either pony up in free agency and sign both bauer and springer or go all in and trade kopech & vaughn for degrom & confoto/nimmo/smith/mcneil

Reynaldo Lopez Optioned to Schaumburg
Coop lost his magic years ago and always worked better with soft throwers to begin with

Just put Moncada on the IL already....
Im not sure i trust our teams medical staff any more with how many injuries our guys have suffered the last few years.

The grandal hate is vastly overblown
Thats the bigger problem. Ricky seems to think hes a middle of the order bat, which he isnt. Id be ok with him hitting 2nd (just because of his obp), 7th, or 8th. But he should never be slotted to hit 3rd-6th on this team with the boppers we have.

We’re going to make the playoffs, but with this pitching staff, we arent going to go very far.
