This was my first thought as well, IL for Castro while Lee gets a shot and the Astros evaluate if it’s just time to cut bait on Castro.
Get rid of goodrum
Javier would be top 20 in ERA but he doesn’t qualify because he hasn’t pitched enough innings. He’s at 101 at most IP. Some of that is because he...
He certainly is memorable.
They surprised me. I felt like Siri played slightly more often than Chaz.
Also/ I have a 103.7 degree fever right now, so if I die before the Yankee game tomorrow give them he’ll for me. thanks
@Buck Turgidson i’ve got a Javier as a 2, merely because he hasn’t gone enough IP to be a 1. You need quality and length to be that guy, and to be...
Sure. I would assume such a deal presupposes them eating some salary. If you could get his obligation down to about 10 million a year (no idea if...
I will bite- I haven't seen San Diego play in 3 years nor heard Hosmers name mentioned at all- but he's got a 117 OPS+ this year and he hits...
Because he plays catcher and CF and has 3 or so years of control. That's a unicorn Edited to add- that's 3 years of control after this one...
He's not going to the pen, he's going back to the rotation. 2 reasons: 1) that's where he has most value; and 2) that's probably less stress and...
Typically I just go with the guys who get cy young votes and figure if you were good enough to collect those your wn ace for the year.
I define Ace as a top 10 SP in the game. I use the terms 1,2,3,4,5 starter to refer to a top 30, 31-60, 61-90, 91-120 or 120+ guy. JV is an Ace....
Finding a platoon partner for Brantley can definitely come with a DH spot now that Yordan has taken on significant time in left field. I will say...
I like that group of bullpen arms much better if you fire Maton into the face of the sun, but against all odds he was probably our best bullpen...
Leon alone might be enough- right? A high ceiling quasi top 100 prospect should be all they get. They might like someone else’s high ceiling top...
Depends upon what you mean by “decent manager”. If you mean in game tactician- no, he sucks. If you mean- filling out the perfect lineup card-...
I doubt we see that lineup often, but it would be my preferred one right now against a RH starter.
I didn’t like Toro (no offense I don’t mean personally) but never got the angst about trading him. He was a jag and he was blocked. You do that...
Abreu could be a closer, someday. He has pure filth for stuff. But, agree completely with you that the only really obvious move in leverage is to...
