  1. Not sure what the hell that was.
  2. I think one of Loretta/Ross are most likely, but Johnson/Beltran are my favorites.
  3. Way way too much. Machado got nowhere near that kind of package.
  4. Why would we trade 2 years of Bryant for one of Betts?
  5. Explain to me why we would move Schwarber. The guy puts up a .958 2nd half OPS with a 22.2K% on a .246 babip good for a 139wRC+. People are clamoring to throw 4 years and 60M at Castellanos, but want to move a cheaper Schwarber. I don't get it.
  6. Even if he somehow only gets a short sentence, I can't see MLB ever allowing him to step on the field again. Pretty huge blow to the Pirates.
  7. Maybe you should bench him if you're not going to let him do anything but hand off and throw screens.
  8. Trubisky literally contributes 0 yards on the drive.
  9. So apparently the secret is to just not let Mitch throw.
  10. Oakland approves this message. Completely forgot about that. Just lovely.
  11. Just straight up tank and draft a new QB, hopefully he acclimates before the defense gets too old.
  12. It's time for Mitch to see the bench. He checks down as often as Kyle Orton but with half the accuracy when he actually goes down field.
  13. Not sure what he changed at the ASB but since then 165PAs .264/.358/.667 with 16 bombs on a .222babip. His first half K% was 28.3 and his second half has dropped to 17.6%. That's good for a 154wRC+.
  14. I'm honestly starting to believe he's on the Addison Russell intelligence level. Just so many head scratching decisions.
  15. Still doing the same stupid things he did his rookie year. I pray the Bears aren't stupid enough to extend him.
  16. A hold, then illegal hands to the face before the interference.
  17. Didn't even take a full half for the chorus of boos on this offense.
  18. I don't get the Amaya omission at all. A 20 year old catcher with a plus arm who is putting up a 122wRC+ in A+ isn't top 100 while a 21 year old catcher also in A+ with a plus arm and a 104wRC+ is #64 on the list.
  19. Marginal this year and I just don't see how it's going to get any better next year. I wouldn't be upset at all if they tore it down after the season was over.
  20. I want that for Contreras, nice start for Bryant I guess and if you throw in Anderson and Newcomb it's not not a fairly serious offer probably short a bat I think adding Shewmake is about as much as you're reasonably going to get. They're not going to deal a likely 3fWAR pitcher who isn't a FA until 2025, a top 30 prospect, a top 50 prospect and one of their bigger upside pen arms for 2 years of Bryant. I can't think of any recent trade where anyone got near that kind of haul.
  21. Yeah the FSL is notoriously hard to hit in, but what was his excuse at A ball where he was just OK? A .241/.334/.448 is hardly thrilling.
  22. I've mentioned it elsewhere before but I'd certainly be game for dealing Bryant to Atlanta for something like Fried and Pache/Waters. Sign Donaldson to a 2 year deal, resign Nick to a 3 year deal and spend the rest on the pen/Baez extension/deadline move.
