Squirmin' for Yermin

Agreed. His stats alone make him appear like AAA fodder at best. I don't understand how he scores so highly on stuff if he can't strike anyone out lol

I guess I am more so saying if we lose out on all other LF options (Conforto, Bellinger, Benintendi), then Frazier makes sense for 80 starts in LF and 40 at 2B. akak not set at a position.

Adam Frazier makes a lot of sense as a 2B and LF. Could use him in a versatile role and has a LH bat and would come cheaper due to his down year

One of the Sox podcast had a Anderson + for Albies trade (trade simulator) and I can't say that I'd hate it. Anderson has 2 years left, Albies has 5 years at 7 mil per.

I really would love to try and get Alek Thomas. Apparently they're looking for big league ready pitching or right handed pop. I wonder if a Crochet + Ramos (works via simulator) would interest them?

I'd be a really big fan of a Reyes signing.

for sure

2, 6, 4, 9, 7, 8, 5, 1, 3 okay bye now

The Mendick non-tender is not surprising. I also would have non-tendered. I'd try to bring him back on a minors deal but his histroy + injury + our middle infield close to majors depth (Sosa, Yogurt, Rodriguez, Romy) make him expendable.

Again, we can't solve everything if our owner only allows for a 180 million payroll. Some things will still be severely lacking when said and done.

If we had more money to spend I'd love a better backup CF... But that's the problem... Maybe grab Engel on a minors deal if possible.

At those contracts and prices, Cleinger is the ONLY one where I see some value.

Can't Leury cover CF when Robert sits? Now if Robert has a serious injury and is out weeks at a time... eeeeek

agreed. He can bring back cheaper meaningful talent.

I still prefer Conforto to Bellinger, but Bellinger also makes a lot of sense.

yes

Here's my thrown together offseason. Over 5 million. Sue me. Hendriks for Montas works both financially and logically for both teams. (works easily trade value wise). This bullpen could still be pretty good with the return of Crochet and a bounce back from one of Kelly/Bummer. Traded Romy Gonzalez for Stone Garrett since the DBacks left him off the 40 man AND we have Sosa, Yolbert, Leury and my signing of Frazier to cover 2B. (works trade value wise) Signed Conforto (of course), but could swap Bellinger instead. Signed Frazier as a relatively cheap bounce back who can primarily play 2B but can also cover the corners. Brought in Knebel cheap, and brought back Engel to start out at the 4th OF until Garrett brings himself on. I ideally wanted a better 4th OF but due to roster constraints I decided to go with Frazier over Kiermaier due to flexibility and LH bat. I let Mendick go since we have many others in the minors who can likely do what he does (named above).

nevermind

Can i not add other players to trade for? Sorry, first time filling this out.

Appreciate it.

BMAGS, where do I access this to fill out my own?

I do not hate the item of trading Hendriks if we truly have massive money constraits. I still think you roll with the majority of this team and try to win this year. AKA use Hendriks to fill holes elsewhere not for prospects who can't help in 2023.

I'm glad i'm not the only one that would dislike it lol

How can his stuff be that good and not be able to strike anyone out lol

Doesn't he also have a vast injury history?
