What the hell are the Mets doing??? Just keep Syndergaard and sign Grandal/Ramos, you’re giving up a 3-5+ win pitcher who’s controlled for a catcher who’s as expensive and maybe ~1.5 wins better than the FA options. You’re getting worse (or staying as good) and more expensive since I’d assume they’ll go spend money on a SP now. No horsefeathers Cashman is pushing to do this and horsefeathers them if somehow the Marlins/Jeets take back bad money of theirs

I feel bad for hating latroy as much as I did

 

I never hated LaTroy. He was a perfectly fine setup guy who openly expressed that he didn't want to close games, and Dusty pushed him into that position regardless. When he'd screw up, I'd be mad at Dusty rather than him.

me too. but to be fair he gave us no choice

 

I never hated LaTroy. He was for the Cubs what he had always been, which was a great set-up man who failed spectacularly as a closer. I hated Dusty for repeatedly putting him in a position he had been proven unable to handle.

He allowed an .862 OPS over his last 6 appearances during a must win stretch, including 2 blown saves (9 on the season). I'm sure he's a nice guy but that sucked.

The most amazing thing was that LaTroy played until he was 42 and was actually pretty damn good his last season

 

Always aspire to be a relief pitcher, you'll never want for a job

Hey Reds can we interest you in a Chatwood? He will be much cheaper to acquire than those two guys.

I will miss streaming Ivan Nova starts at PNC in fantasy.

 

He is going to get broken in that ballpark with the White Sox defense behind him.

He always seems to give us problems so glad we don’t need to face him 3-6 times a year now.
