Had my eye on him for a while, he has a club option in 2024.
-
-
Ryan Clifford is the other prospect. Fangraphs has him at a 45 FV, 138 wRC+ om A+ at age 20.
-
If the Mets are eating about 20-25M, it's a pretty good deal for both sides.
-
Sure sounds like if Cease is going anywhere it's going to be Baltimore.
-
It's only 2.5 years in the minors.
-
yes, fWAR loves him, but the actual results haven't been great. A 4.15 and 3.91 ERA are solid and the 2.20 is nuts, but looking like an outlier. He might be a victim of bad defense, I'm not sure, but the actual production has not matched the peripherals.
-
The cost is supposedly crazy high and, while he isn't a free agent until 2026, his results have only been really good one year while the others they're been more solid than anything else.
-
You realize you're advocating for Mancini right now right? Sure Mervis might suck, but we know unequivocally that Mancini does in fact suck. There is literally nothing to lose and at they very least they would find out that Mervis is no part of the 2024 plan if he bombs.
-
99 PAs is not an opportunity to seize it, especially when it's spread over over almost 45 days.
-
We have to remember that Mervis was a pitcher until his Junior year of college, he's not like every other 25 year old.
-
Sorry he's 25 years old, regardless of performance in AAA he's nothing, especially if he doesn't immediately rake upon promotion. If prospects aren't stars by 25 they're disposable washouts.
-
Could Eloy play 1B?
-
Are you sure he is even opting out at this point?
-
I swear Seiya is 0-2 or 1-2 to start every at bat
-
Mancini, all you had to do was not run directly into the 2B and there's no double play. Good god.
-
Maybe Stroman won't be opting out after all
-
Cubs acquire Jeimer Candelario from Nationals - Rosenthal

I am 100% ok with this -
Good move pending the prospects
-
I'm 100% okay with light buying, it's actually my preferred method. I would not be ok with them going out and spending prospect currency on Hader/ERod, etc.
-
I could be convinced to look at Burleson if it was for someone in the prospect 15 or below range. He has underperformed this year, but there's enough there to dream on.

Let me have my illogical hate of the franchise that had a star that wanted to play for them and they all but said, "no thanks".

Ohtani to Dodgers for an ungodly amount of money
Tryptamine replied to JD94's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
They'll give him an offer, it will just be about 5 years shorter than the rest of the offers. -
This sounds very similar to 2017 and 2018 where they didn't want to go deep into luxury tax territory because they wanted to be able to make a big move later. Then Harper was available and they did a big nothing.
-
Good get on both sides. Cleveland gets the bat it badly needs. TB gets a solid starter.
