Squirmin' for Yermin

That sounds like Booty.. What about a high schooler who gets drafted at 18? He's stuck for 12 years? What about a college guy drafted at 23?

You're right.. Lets just talk about signing mid-tier and scrub guys. That always makes for fun conversation

Trevor Bauer when he retires and we hire him as a 45 year old to be both manager and pitching coach.

1. Joc 2. Dahl 3. Eaton This is assuming no Springer.. I don't really want to trade for a RF unless it's a stud. Many guys I'd roll with in FA over a Calhoun (example) trade.

yes, you can trust me... I mean him. I'm kidding. Or am I?

My understanding was they had the 250 for a long time and a big lead and thought they had him... Probably until the day before when the Padres found out how low the offer was.

Keuchel was not a big fish by any means, was he even top 5 of SP available?.... Grandal, yes.

The only way you sign Schwarber is to play him everyday in RF/DH. He will find full time jobs somewhere.. I personally don't hate it, but I like homers LOL

This is how I would have it exactly. Except I'd flip Madrigal and Crochet and I'd have Yermin at #10 of course

I think they will.

Snell?

While not yet by any means.. This offseason would absolutely be a failure IF our signings consist of only (examples), Joc, Quintana and another meh starter.

He makes the most sense out of all FA... But yea... bad blood. I'd be all for it but I expect Joc (which is fine)

Is his D as bad as others have stated? I admitedly don't know but his dWAR is right around 0 every year, which to me sounds "passable"

When are the winter meetings? Tomorrow-Thurs?

Gallo seems to be way over hyped.. One year over 210 BA.. One year over .330 OBP.. and only one year above a 3 WAR.. prospects.

Those 2 aren't even comparable. Kelley is already more highly touted than Stiever.

My Stiever, Sheets and Lambert proposal seems pretty spot on right about now. And I'd do it.. Keep all the top arms and young high ceiling guys (Kelley, Dalquist, Thompson)

We wouldn't have Keuchel if we had Wheeler, so we'd be in the same spot of needing a starter.

What does this even mean

Send me the post saying Harold said that.. IF that was an offer I am glad the Indians took the poor offer they did.

That was not an offer. That would have blown away the Padres offer.

Yes he is way undervalued. No his 3.6 FIP the psat 3 years is not a bonafide TOR starter. Good 2 or 3 for sure. But he is 34 and regression at some point is happening. It isn't worth Cease or Dunning for 1 year

People who would extend him are the biggest ding bats of the White Sox kingdom.. (Insert Billy Madison game quote)

I agree with the Dunning part... but Lynn is far better right now.
