Squirmin' for Yermin

Actually only 3 times was he top 30. But I too hope he can be top 20. If he isn't top 20, it seems like it could be a bad trade.

I am guessing 100-120 this year. 160 as a starter next year. No limitations post 2021

Cease + Stiever for Darvish. Push the chippies in. LOL

I have always liked De Leon. I too would support it.

I am a fan of bringing in Schwarber still. DH him, no pressure on Vaughn but also won't block Vaughn as he still can get time in LF (injured Eloy) and RF (injured Eaton). Plus could spell Abreu 5-10 games a year. I can easily gfet him 120 starts that way. Give him 7 million. Provides some insurance if a serious offensive guy goes down.

You're forgetting about Moncada and Robert and Bummer extensions.

Everyone agreed last years offseason was a huge success..

1. Hendricks @ 13 million/3 years 2. Suzuki @ 3 million/1 year 3. Kluber @ 12million/1 year 4. Daniel Murphy @ 2 million/1 year (DH until Vaughn up).

Yeah, there's many arguments for both sides, certainly.

Sucks you lost a mother in law. But, how does his statement make him a jackass?

Do you think he will get 4 elsewhere? I imagine someone will give it out eventually. It's not an asenine ask by him by any means.

Yeah, I'm sure that's it.

I'll take that tiny percent chance.

I'd gladly accept COVID for the second time if I can sit in the stands.. Let me make that choice.

You could make the argument. But yes, need pitching

So they're not the Indians anymore, but are the Indians..

This is still probably the #2 team in the AL in my opinion. However, the bullpen still worries me a little with so much reliance on the young guys. I'd love to sign a top flight RP.. Our backend also makes me nervous to to youth and inning limit restrictions. For the same reason, I'd like some vet to help fill in who can also shift to the BP when Kopech is back. Having a OF/DH on a small deal would also be advantageous until Vaughn comes back. If we hit on these 3 well, we could be the AL favorites without much exaggerating

No. That's better than the Sale deal.

I'm just using the numbers. Yeah, cancel culture sucks. If we change EVERYTHING because 10-20% of the people are offended, then nothing will ever be allowed to stick. It's lame.

So dumb lolll. I love people that are unrelated to the "issue" tell everyone how we should feel about the issue. I remember when the Redskins were changing their name there was a poll specifially asking native americans if they found it offensive and wanted a name change.. Some insanely high number like 80-90% (don't remember exact) said "No, and that they didn't find it offensive or wanted a change"... Our world sucks.

Would you destroy your entire farm system for 1 world series? I certainly would..

He's on our 40 man roster.. Thus no rule 5

Not with us I'd assume.. Someone else, maybe a flyer?

I do actually think Schwarber makes some sense IF, they want Vaughn to get 1-2 months in the minors (that starts a month after the season anyways). That would mean we'd have Schwarber DH for 2-3 months exclusively PLUS spell Eloy more when he or Vaughn need a break and cover for Eloy when he inevitable trips over his feet. Maybe even Eaton too a tad? I could see getting Schwarber 400+ at bats easy, and to me I'd pony up some money for that. The issue is... I think he easily can find 600+ at bats elsewhere.

Walker may turn into my #3 SP target..So far I stand at: 1. Kluber 2. Paxton 3. Walker? 4. Quintana I would prefer some high upside for our 4th, hence why Kluber and Paxton are atop my list
