Last time I checked we weren’t relying on our 8th and 9th hitters to carry the team.
He’s very worried about the players feelings getting hurt.
I guess I’m the only one who doesn’t think this is a terrible idea depending on the cost. He wasn’t good last season but he’s still only 32 and...
He averaged 135 games the previous 4 seasons before this last one. It’s not as bad as some are making it seem on here.
He’s been saying that for like a year now lol
He said they weren’t done making moves. There’s still a solid chance he adds a backup catcher like Vazquez. I’m not sure why you think it had to...
Your first mistake was taking anything Dana said at face value.
To be fair, English is his second language.
Alright that’s fair. Sounded like you were saying we should just cave and take less value. Personally disagree about being better with Nootbaar...
If we don’t trade Paredes and we get off to a slow start record wise and offensively due to the OF being bad, I’ll bet anything Espada will start...
Yeah I’m sorry but that’s insane to take a lesser player for Paredes. A 2 WAR OFer either can’t hit or isn’t worth a damn defensively. The chances...
There's also a non zero chance Walker is washed. Jose Abreu was good at the end of the 2023 season and was good in the playoffs. He had an OPS of...
It's going to be absolutely insufferable listening to people cry about this and Espada's lineup choices throughout the season if Paredes isn't dealt.
Exactly. The return has to be worth trading him. Trades solely with the Red Sox clearly fell through as well as the proposed 3 team deal with us...
Who underachieved because of the Ryan Pressly situation? Regardless, that isn't the same situation as this. He lost his role after being one of...
I think you are going to be disappointed then. IMO if there was a viable trade to be made, it would have already been done by now.
I doubt it but just depends on how bad Paredes is playing 2B.
Yeah unless a trade is made to swap Paredes for an equally capable hitting OFer, I’m throwing Yordan’s ass in LF for all the home games. If...
Correa is better defensively so that makes zero sense.
The Rays regularly trade their players so really not much to see there. We apparently had interest in Paredes before he was traded to the Cubs so...
