Squirmin' for Yermin

Just to entertain this idea.. Maeda would make a ton of sense as our “swing man”. Similar role to what he had with the Dodgers

Saying “guaranteed” makes me think we’ve got an option on this for year 2. $8 mil would be amazing

Clevinger is my favorite FA starter. In our price range and will have a higher ceiling than the others in that same range. I’d be really happy with $8-12 with an option

I don’t even think this is bad loll

Pal is my pal

Kepler makes a ton of sense with 2 cheaper years of control. Good D and left handed with some pop. I don’t think he’s the 2019 offensive guy as I believe Marwin Gonzalez had a few hitting “tips” for his new Twin team that year. But he’s still be strong none the less.

Only people who don't remember his vast injury history

Seby is absolutely a sell high guy for me as well IF you could get something. I doubt you could though.

Most of our "issues" with Wong here aren't the player, but rather the money allocation. If we truly only have ~15 million to spend.. Spending 10 million on a 2B, may not be the brightest idea

Very meh for me. That is a horrendous A's trade and I don't really care for the Berti trade (non-believer here).

I believe like only his rookie year

yes

I disagree and think we need a LH OF the most so that Eloy can move to primary DH and we can add some balance.

This would be my preferred option. OF #1 by bigly amount for me

If we are only spending 15 million, I wouldn't love 10 million going to Wong.

I don't think that sounds too crazy given his history and super strong 2021.

I don't believe you will get MLB players at the deadline as teams usually don't like to trade those though, while you could in the offseason. Dealing them for other MLB players would be a "re-tool". Dealing for prospects another rebuild

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
