2018-19 Other Team Offseason Transactions Not Worth a New Thread

[Bull]

I thought that happened last week

Wrong. Nothing has ever happened and never will. This offseason is a black hole of signings.

The Angels gave Matt Harvey $11 mil.

Anibal Sanchez to the Nats on a 2/19. After looking like the career might be over, he turned in a super solid 2018 and should be another excellent piece in a dominant Washington staff .

That’s a lot of money for Murphey and Sanchez. Rockies are paying like $90 mil at 1B for 2-3 WAR a year

Andrew Miller to STL

Andrew Miller to STL

 

Well crap.

Gotta hand it to the Cardinals, they do love their jorts.

Well crap.

Waiting on the contract before I consider this a good or bad deal

[Bertz]

The Miller signing is a lot like the Goldschmidt trade. It substantially improves the Cards at a position of need which is obviously bad, but at the same time I was bracing for Craig Kimbrel so in that sense it's a relief.

Soria to the A's

Soria to the A's

Kinda glad we avoided him. His contract wasn’t bad or anything but would hope we are aiming higher. Robertson, Allen, Ottavino, Britton (if medicals check out and they feel good), etc.

Do we have the money to aim higher?

Robertson is the only one of those guys I'd prefer to Soria(and it's close), especially at 2/17. The only available reliever who has been better than Soria the last 2 years is Kimbrel, and available and unavailable there's been less than 10 relievers better in that timeframe.

It's a bad deal for us

His injuries may have played a role in that right?

Somewhat, but he didn't get better after coming back from injury(6+ ERA in September), injuries beget injuries, and he'll be 34 by Memorial Day.

The A's just traded for Profar.

[Cubswin11]

2/25 for Miller. Certainly reasonable, but obviously he just might be broken. I’d do that same deal +/- for Britton or Allen (I’m starting to really be intrigued by Allen, his underlying stuff was mostly fine/inline with his awesome years last year and if the market never fully develops for him I’d love to add him).

Billy Beane doing Billy Beane things. That looks like a really solid trade for Oakland.

[We Got The Whole 9]

Lacy included in the 3 way deal to send Profar to Oakland

[Post Count Padder]

The Dodgers and Reds are “finalizing a significant trade,” according to Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports (Twitter link). Details are not known, but it’s believed to involve “multiple Major League pieces.”

 

Guessing it's Puig to the Reds, giving the Dodgers money for Harper.

 

SIGH.

Doesn't Bailey make a ton of money?
