    Even if a Bellinger deal can't get done, they could still fit Luzardo+Milner+Chafin and be ok on salary, no? I think I'd be ok with that team and fill out the bench with prospects.
  2. Tryptamine
    I know you're dead set on Oline in the 1st, but I'd sure love to have a shot at either Mason Graham or Abdul Carter. They're probably going to have to finish top 7 to have a shot. If not, I'm 100% cool with Will Campbell. As of now, I think the Bears will end up picking 8th. The Jets will win again, I don't think the Bears will, but unfortunately I don't think any of the Jags/Brown/Titans/Patriots/Panthers have 2 more wins in them.

    Still not sure why everyone puts Alcantara in trades over Caissie now that it's believed Alcantara has an additional year. I know Caissie is the safer bat, but one provides above average CF defense, which would be plus defense in the corner.
  4. Tryptamine
    Would certainly provide the upside the rotation needs.

    I don't get the talk that Josh Allen sealed the deal with MVP last night like he's the run away winner. I wouldn't even have him as the winner much less the run way winner. COMP% Lamar: 68.1%(11th) Allen: 64.4%(20th) Passing Yards Lamar: 3580(5th) Allen: 3395(8th) AVG: Lamar: 8.9(1st) Allen: 8.0(8th) YPG: Lamar: 255.7(5th) Allen: 242.5(8th) Passing TD: Lamar: 34(2nd) Allen: 25(6th) INT: Lamar: 3 Allen: 5 QBR: Lamar: 76.0(2nd) Allen: 79.4(1st) RTG: Lamar: 120.7(1st) Allen: 103.5(7th) Rushing Yards: Lamar: 742(1st) Allen: 484(4th) YPC: Lamar: 6.3 Allen: 5.3 Rushing TD: Lamar: 3 Allen: 11

    Steele, Shota, Luzardo, Taillon, Boyd It's not fantastic, but it's pretty solid especially with Assad/Wicks as depth. I really wanted to aim a little higher for the last rotation spot, but it's not bad if it happens to go down.

    Lamar is having a season for the ages. After today's 5TD 0INT performance he's up to 34TD to 3INT. Bryce Young came crashing back to earth after looking greatly improved recently. 2 INT 2 fumbles, 218 yards 83 of which came on one play.
  8. Tryptamine
    Yeah, finishing a Bellinger deal is almost certainly holding up everything else at the moment.
  9. Tryptamine
    $10 million is just such an absurd amount for a guy who is a solid player, just a bit overpaid. If 10M is going, a good prospect better be coming back.
  10. Tryptamine
    Oh fun, the Morel experiment/disaster all over again.
  11. Tryptamine
    I could convince myself to have Triantos be the main piece if not much else is going. Not interested in giving up Caissie.
  12. Tryptamine
    I would say if the Cubs just sat on their hands the rest of the offseason, I could kind of see this. With that said, I don't expect Jed to stop now and if they get a SP to slot in front of Taillon, a set up man and a bench bat, they are not only a division favorite, but a legit depth playoff run team.
  13. Tryptamine
    Personally I was thinking 7. Not thrilled with the 2nd year Kelly got, but the AAV is good.
  14. Tryptamine
    Not enthralled with Luzardo, but he's a good mid rotation guy. If they're willing to do something like Caissie or Alcantara with a couple guys further down the list, sure I guess. Not someone I'd be throwing multiple guys out of the top 7 or 8 prospects, especially coming off injury.
  15. Tryptamine
    I'm almost in the camp right now where I prefer giving Shaw 3B and splurging on that SP and RP and maybe a bench bat.
  16. Tryptamine
    Love it on paper, but this can't be it. They need to find a capable 3B, a good setup man and a rotation upgrade if they really want to challenge this year.
  17. Tryptamine
    They get a tolerable 2 fWAR 3B and a SP to slot in front of Taillon, then yeah
  18. Tryptamine
    So if they trade Bellinger+5M for Warren I believe that leaves them around 41M available with needs at 3B/SP/RP
  19. Tryptamine
    Also, reading the tea leaves, I think it's clear the Cubs are very very high on Matt Shaw.
  20. Tryptamine
    This is going to completely crush my soul if Lucy pulls the football on this trade.
  21. Tryptamine
    Now I'm super interested in what happens at 3B
  22. Tryptamine
    I don't think it's going to be anyone we terribly miss. More like starter depth or something in 15-20 range.
  23. Tryptamine
    Yeah, I'm sure it's probably more like Smith+Wicks/Assad, which I'm still ok with
  24. Tryptamine
    If it's really Paredes+Caissie+Wesneski like that one tweet said, that's pretty much best case scenario
  25. Tryptamine
    I'm racking my brain here to try and come up with someone that would make sense for Bohm. Philly definitely wants MLB talent. Bohm isn't a FA until 2027 so it's going to have be something fairly valuable. I just can't think of anything that makes sense both ways unless it was something like Bohm+Castellanos for Seiya which I would absolutely loathe.
