Squirmin' for Yermin

Agreed. I think he gets shopped if Seager OR Taylor are re-signed but his value seems hard to peg since he was a former top prospect who hasn't done much is 2-3 seasons.

Can we allocate another 8 million to another reliever when we have many other holes to fill and likely a limited budget?

Yeah, I'd much rather have his contract than Gravemen

@Harold's Leg LiftHarold got me thinking about Lux. Not sure what else we'd need to add but I want him lol

I am not mad. We will just have to see how the rest of the reliver market turns out because this seems long and expensive based on his career.

This seems very expensive, and long for a reliever with no track record. Hopefully he made some legit changes that appear to have made a permanent difference.

The way playoffs are played now, I'm not sure theres something more important to a team than Bullpen now.

Based on what I am reading, he has not had it removed. Eek

The pen now consists of: Hendricks, Bummer, Gravemen, Crochet, Ruiz, Burr and then Kopech in the playoffs. I really would like another bullpen arm added. I am also assuming here that Kimbrel is gone.

I think we'd be hard pressed to sign two relievers at ~8 mil this offseason.

This is where I am at.

Can anyone shed light on this great question this poster asked?

Wonder if Kimbrel deal is imminent now

whoa. Is there a reason he was so good in 2021 vs being so bad the rest of his career? Any underlying changes? If not, this scares me as I'd rather get Tepera for 2/14 or something.

yup. He needs to quit being a Biotch and just accept it. It's best for the team.

I will be pounding the UNDER for their win/loss record. No idea what they'll even set it at yet lol

I was under the impression most people were fine with Madrigal ++ or Crochet ++ but not Vaughn/Kopech. Now would I have done Madrigal + Crochet? I don't remember. Hindsight makes it hard to remember.

weeeee

agreed. Are you also hearing he may be on the block

yeah, that would be a travesty

Yes or No. Do you think we make a signing (greater than 50 million) before the 12/1 deadline. @Y2Jimmy0 @Harold's Leg Lift @Pal @wsd

I know that. But I would hate a straight up for him. If we could get two players it could be interesting but I don't even see a second player I'd want.

I would HATE Pablo Lopez for Vaughn. An interesting idea (idk how much i'd really think about it), would be a Luzardo + someone useful. However, looking, I don't see anyone on that roster that I'd want loll

I honestly hate this idea.

woof. Seems spicy. I would've expected 2/12
