Thank god. Is that 3 open 40 man slots now?
-
Here's the move Baltimore has been waiting for a 25 year old reliever dominating A+
-
I mean they almost have to walk away with one of ERod, Cease or even Flaherty or this deadline is an absolute disaster for them.
-
Ok, so what the hell are the Orioles doing? Tampa and Toronto make multiple deals. Houston and Texas make significant deals. Meanwhile the Orioles have added Shintaro Fujinami and that's it.
-
That's a pretty big give up for a guy like Lorenzen
-
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.
