    This would make no sense to me since frankly the rotation is already kind of great. Yeah Steele likely doesn't start the year in the rotation but Assad can cover him for a month or whatever. Steele/Boyd/Shota/Horton/Tallion is really really good and might even have Wiggins joining them at some point.

    Frankly I'm a bit terrified he's going to end up being an 85-90 wRC+ guy with elite defense/base running which is very valuable but if someone is valuing him at a 115-120 wRC+ guy with even more untapped then yeah I'm considering it.

    The offense must be addressed and that's going to be very difficult given this roster's lack of flexibility. I see a couple possibilities. You snag Bregman and that let's you dangle Shaw+ for a Joe Ryan type You snag Alonso, deal with Seiya in RF and that let's you move Ballesteros for an arm maybe a Bryce Miller/Sandy Alcantara type. You still have Caissie to take over RF in 2027. If you deal either Shaw or Ballesteros for an arm, you can then move Taillon to open some salary and at 17M he can probably bring back either a reliever or a prospect or two that slot in the 10-15 range. They need a legitimate utility infielder from day one. You cannot go into 2026 throwing an array of Nick Lopez, Vidal Brujan and Jon Berti out there. I'm also going to put this out there and it's going to cause some rage, but depending on how other teams value him, I'd listen to offers on PCA. I know there's basically no one to take CF, but this might be the last chance to sell high. Against I'm not actively looking to move him.

    I'm going to once again double down on Seattle's HC being a moron for so strictly forcing an alternating running back by committee when Walker consistently outperforms Charbonnet.

    Fields has to be benched. It's just completely unacceptable to pass for 45 yards
  6. Tryptamine
    Illinois didn't get blown out, that's pretty much all I was asking for
  7. Tryptamine
    Did they really have no one but Kahnle? The guy was awful this year and you give him the ball?
  8. Tryptamine
    50/50 chance I die from anxiety on Saturday.
  9. Tryptamine
    Why Thielbar?
  10. Tryptamine
    I'm all in on Rea
  11. Tryptamine
    Yeah 6 runs is enough, don't use any pitcher in the 9th that you might realistically need tomorrow
  12. Tryptamine
    Michael Busch is good
  13. Tryptamine
    Keller wont go the 9th right? Like just throw Ben Brown or something.
  14. Tryptamine
    Throw a damn strike
  15. Tryptamine
    Lead off walk, not ideal.
  16. Tryptamine
    Well I did not see Keller coming out against Yelich.
  17. Tryptamine
    Nah he needs to come out after Yelich no matter what. Don't give them momentum.
  18. Tryptamine
    Contreras has saved so many wild pitches tonight, god damn.
  19. Tryptamine
    This Brewer pen has thrown a lot of pitches so far tonight.
  20. Tryptamine
    Seriously how much luck did the Brewers just use up?
  21. Tryptamine
    He's safe
  22. Tryptamine
    Gasser misses giving up 2 HRs by a combined foot
  23. Tryptamine
    Happ is like a combined 30 feet from a 4 HR game.
  24. Tryptamine
    Happ with yet another warning track shot.
  25. Tryptamine
    Tucker please get hot
