Squirmin' for Yermin

This is exactly how I feel.

So a 7.5 win change... SOOO 80ish wins? I stand corrected on my number (off 1.5) but I would be right on the overall outcome of right around .500.

He strikes me as the next King Felix debacle.. Signs big contract and due to all of his innings at such a young age compltely implodes.. He would make me insanely nervous.

I'm glad we didnt touch him foir that

how? He was 3 WAR... Didn't our RF combine for negative 6? That's a 9 win difference.

But we act as if we are a low market. That's the issue.

I think most of us agree 5 years at 110 is fine and reasonable and we will all be mad if we don't win that... But fuck it.. Offer 6 years, 120 million. Literally 10 million more for his age 34 season. Ivan Nova just made 9. Scrub pitchers get 5-10.

Isn't it wild having a guy like Joc last here would have pushed us near .500.... His +3 WAR would have replaced our what -6 from whatever the hell we were throwing out there... He's my favorite realistic RF addition this offseason.. Unless Conforto because obtainable.

If only that enticed them lol

no sorry. 10 years playoff, lost everytime, 0 world series.

Castellanos has ZERO roll here now that we for some reason signed Abreu to an expensive long deal.

So you think being a Twins fans all those years with Mauer and Morneou would be more fun than actually winning a world series...

But would you trade our World Series for 10 playoff years? I sure as hell wouldn't and I would hope you wouldn't either.

They will gladly trade all that for that World Series.. Without Corbin they don't have one.

100% true.

I completely agree with your tiers here.

The sky may not be falling.. yet.

How do you feel?

I think you're getting into the Greg territory of annoyance.

I wonder which poster this is LOL

LOL... Since 2009 the White sox are -137 games below .500.... the Phillies are -22. They haven't been close. That's a difference of I believe 11.5 games a year.... Yeah, but no.

yup

Yeah, anyone predicting wheeler would be under 5 years for 100 million havent been watching the past 5 offseasons. It was clear he'd be at these amounts.

Good.. So this tells us we are at least at 5 years and 100 million. Not some low ball 5 years 85 million shit

I presonally would give the 6th year at 120. HOWEVER, I would understand the Sox passing on the 6th year. I wouldn't be mad about it, even though I'd have done it
