  1. Just missed Hoskins signing a minor league deal by a couple days. Hopefully Jed goes back into the free agent pool Tommy Pham Starling Marte Andrew Mclutchen
  2. Giolito and Kopech or bust I guess. Kinda feels like last year when the roster looks a move short (Bregman) but fell short.
  3. Mo's been posting hype videos of himself working out all offseason on his instagram stories , not sure if he's lost weight but he' putting in the work.
  4. "Kelly has caught 55 Zac Gallen starts in his career. And in those 55 starts, Gallen has a 2.81 ERA, while opposing batters are hitting just .202/.271/.337 (better than he has with any other catcher with whom he’s worked, min. 7 games). Gallen has more Starts with Kelly than anyone else." Nice tidbit from Bleachernation. Gallen would fit too nice, it's going to be a letdown if he goes elsewhere.
  5. Duran, Armstrong. Happ outfield defense would be worth it.
  6. Berti wasn't a bad gamble last offseason for a final bench piece it just didn't pay off. I don't want to trade Shaw but if they did somehow got Abreu or Duran? I'd fine with any of these guys taking his place in that scenario. Luis Urias Ramon Urias Luis Rengifo Jose Iglesias
  7. Bruce Levine mentioned today trading a guy like Tallion for a closer or RF if they land Gallen. He didn't mention any names. Hottovy was on later in the show and they talked at length about six man rotations. Hottovy is fan of them when you can use them but burns bullpens and you need optional guys.
  8. Yes Arm fatigue is real thing and it along with other injuries are being used as load management, Players/teams BOTH can benefit. It's one of the talking points for the next CBA. MLB changing how teams are allowed to use the DL and roster sizes are a reflection of this.
  9. Not a fantasy. Arm fatigue , shoulder soreness and slow playing players rehabs are being used all the time to manipulate roster rules by teams to varying degrees and success. It's the game within the game.
  10. https://x.com/becerra_bsbl/status/2018384792182505832?s=20 Former Hawkins guy, velocity is back up. Would be an interesting depth candidate in Iowa.
  11. Damn at at 1 year 15M. I wouldn't have minded Mo starting the year at Iowa getting reps behind the plate.
  12. That early Tyler Austin signing to Major league deal seems even weirder now that Andjuar ,Goldschmidt, and Ozuna still don't have jobs. Scouting play by the front office.
  13. Heyman saying the Orioles are seriously considering adding Giolito. This is likely Boras pushing in for final offers on Valdez and Gallen.
  14. No but they are getting an additional pick from Tucker and the Dodgers,
  15. Haven't heard Giolito connected to the Cubs much.
  16. Marco Luciano hit the waiver wire for third or fourth time this offseason , would be fun lottery ticket if you can get him through waivers.
  17. Baseball is going to baseball and Shaw will end up with close to 500 at-bats.
  18. https://x.com/AZProspectWatch/status/2014443368177393951?s=20
  19. Chas Mcormick and Dylan Carlson ? Jed out here building depth love to see it.
  20. Love this. Plus defender who can hit for power and steal a bag. Likely beats Alacantra out for the fourth OF spot in spring.
  21. https://x.com/francysromeroFR/status/2014386344395444688?s=20
  22. Mets could still sign Valdez now and have a heck of an offseason.
  23. Bobby Hill was going to be the greatest leadoff hitter of all time.
  24. Cubs are about 23M from the second luxury tax threshold. When Bob Nightingale prematurely reported Gallen signing with the Cubs he had the deal being 22M on average.
