  1. So they must have another plan to replace him? We already don't have enough power, they have something on the horizon we don't know about yet? He's going to have a rebound year I'm thinking, so replacing him and Adames in the power category will be pretty difficult unless they have something going on.
  2. Fun with numbers:
  3. Cubs not done yet: The Cubs and Marlins are discussing a Jesús Luzardo deal, with James Triantos or Owen Caissie likely going to Miami. Luzardo seems risky after dealing with elbow and back injuries in a 2024 season in which he posted a 5.00 ERA in 12 starts, but he was excellent in finishing with a 3.58 ERA and 208 strikeouts in 178 2/3 innings in 2023. Triantos and Caissie are fine prospects and would be candidates to help out next year if traded. Triantos would probably step in at second base sometime next summer, whereas Caissie would have a chance to win a corner outfield gig in spring training. 45m ago Source: Bruce Levine
  4. My bet is the Orioles would say no in a heartbeat. We'd have to add another piece of value to even get them to listen.
  5. I don't like any of your trade proposals because they are all garbage. You always overvalue our guys to the point that I can't take any of your ideas seriously. It's as simple as that. Carry on.
  6. No sweat, the world needs company men...
  7. Of course you wonder that... The answer is NO, not even close.
  8. meh I was hoping for a lot more, but knew that wouldn't happen. Just a big giant meh and a sigh for me. A starting #3 pitcher that could be injured, with one year of control remaining, and a 5'6" guy who can't hit the ball hard? Feels to me like we have a bunch of guys here doing their best to talk themselves into the fact that this is a good trade. Meh. This trade screams "this is the best we can get" for a guy that apparently no one else was willing to give up any better for. I guess we are lucky we got what we did, but in the end, this is just meh.
  9. Surely they could have squeezed Shane Smith on the 40 rather than giving him away. Very disappointing.
  10. The real question is this: Is he keeper worthy in a keeper fantasy baseball league? :)
  11. So the Brewers view Thomas as better than Smith?
  12. So being from LA just makes him want to go there to die? No shot at playoffs, a horribly ran organization, and that is where he'd like to end up? I hope he goes there, serves him right.
  13. Why on earth would he choose the Angels as a team he'd like to be traded to? 5 teams that will be in the hunt for the playoffs and the Angels? A source told MLB.com’s John Denton that Nolan Arenado has six teams on his list of preferred trade destinations: the Angels, Dodgers, Mets, Padres, Phillies and Red Sox. The Yankees are rather surprisingly missing from the list, though that probably doesn’t rule them out as a possibility. It’s currently unclear if any suitor is as interested in Arenado as the Cardinals are in moving on from him. He’s said he’d be willing to shift to first to aid a deal, but that just doesn’t make much sense; most of his value comes from his defense at third base. 2h ago Source: MLB.com
  14. The White Sox will make Brewers prospect Shane Smith the first pick in Wednesday’s Rule 5 draft, MLB.com’s Jonathan Mayo reports. Smith, a Wake Forest product, had a 3.04 ERA and a 113/29 K/BB in 94 1/3 innings between Double- and Triple-A last season. Rule 5 picks are often traded after being picked, so it’s not clear yet that Smith will be remaining with the White Sox. If he does, though, he’d likely have a very good shot of claiming a bullpen spot in the spring. Related Chicago White Sox 1h ago Source: Jonathan Mayo
  15. Dodgers continue to spend, spend, spend...
  16. Honestly, I simply can not believe we didn't protect Smith. Instead, we will probably go out at the 2025 trade deadline and deal some prospects for yet another failure relief pitcher. Smith should have been on the 40, end of story.
  17. The Order - Saw it today. Good movie, disturbing at times but well worth seeing.
  18. Yeah, we were just kicking the tires, as usual, but with no real intention on getting anything done.
  19. No mention of the Brewers here in the latest info... Are we already out? The Athletic’s Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon report the Mets and Yankees are among teams vying to acquire White Sox ace Garrett Crochet. Rosenthal and Sammon add that the Phillies and Red Sox are among the other teams interested in Crochet, but the Mets and Yankees have been the most aggressive so far in trade talks. The 25-year-old southpaw, who is under team control for two more season before reaching free agency is the best pitcher available on the trade market this offseason following last year’s breakout campaign where he led all big-league starters with a staggering 35.1 percent strikeout rate across 146 innings (32 starts). At this point, it’s unclear how close the White Sox are to making a decision, but the asking price figures to be astronomical.
  20. Does this take the Phillies out of the running for a Devin Williams trade? Phillies signed RHP Jordan Romano to a one-year, $8.5 million contract. The deal is now official. Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski told reporters at the Winter Meetings that he wouldn’t completely rule out acquiring another reliever, but added that he’s comfortable with the club’s bullpen at this point. The 31-year-old stopper was non-tendered last month by the Blue Jays after missing four months last year due to elbow issues, but he’s expected to be ready for spring training. All signs point to Romano opening next season as Philadelphia’s primary closer.
  21. The Phillies just signing Romano probably lowers the chances by quite a bit that they would be in on Williams. Kind of a bummer.
  22. If this was all it took, the deal would be done already. Not a chance this gets it done. An offer like that would immediately be beaten out by almost any other team in the running.
  23. Then I'm OUT!
