    I like Mears stuff but he just hits to much of the plate in the wrong counts. I still think he is a guy Hook and company can turn into a dude. I like the idea of bringing Ashby up, we can see him a couple time before September callups and that might help us know if Misi and/or Yoho come up depending on how well he does.

    I say no, for a different organization sure but we so much pitching depth for 2026 and beyond. If he is pitching well maybe by this time next year it will be more clear and less risky. I wouldnt be signing any short team starter unless thy are on near minimum deals. I would probably just wait, maybe someone goes unsigned like Lorenzen and Clevinger did this year and take dirt cheap deals.

    When you look for comp. and the only guys are the goats of various era your doing pretty well.

    For future reference, is it possible for a player just drafted like Payne to go to the DSL? With rookie ball being pretty much impossible for the rookies it could be smart to get HS kids who haven't played for a while some reps even if it is in the DSL. Or is there a rule against it?

    1)Devin to Dback for P Yilber Diaz, INF Demetrio Crisantes and Comp pick 2) Hoby to Toronto P Mason Fluharty 3)Joel Payamps to SF for OF Jonah Cox 4) Aaron Civale and Bryse Wilson to San Diego for P Isiah Lowe and 1B Romeo Sanabria Sign Yoan Moncada 1/4 w/incentuves and Shane Bieber 2/28 (10 in 2025, 18 2026) 1) LF Frelick/2B Turang 2) RF Chourio 3) DH Yeli 4) C Contreras 5) CF Mitchell 6) 1B Hoskins 7)3B Black 8)SS Ortiz 9) Frelick/Turang Bench) Haase (resign), OF Perkins, IF Moncada, Mone/Collins/Brewer/minor league contract add Peralta, Woody, Rea, Myers, Patrick/Henderson/Misi/CarRod/Yilber Diaz eventually Beiber Megill, Huddy, Koenig, Peguero, Yoho, Mears, Paredes, Hall, Bauk/Herget/Zas/Fluharty/Uribe?/Ashby/Jay/minor league FA We trade a lot away but we have plenty of bullpen depth and lots of guys who could step up Middendorf, Chirinos, Yeager, others. We get 3 solid pieces for Devin and 4 upside prospect for the "extra depth" we have built on our pitching side. There is a rotation spot up for grabs for our young arms and there should be solid depth across our minor league system.

    I was going to mention Moncada, he could be a nice platoon 3rd/utility player with Black. I would go after him if he is under say 5 million. How much would a Shane Beiber 2 year deal cost something like Tyler Mahle 2/22 or a bit more because of track record? Getting a guy like Beiber half way through next year could be big and with Woody, Rea, and Civale free agents after the year it would be nice to have a top of the rotation vet under control for 2026. I like Devin to the Yanks but I really like getting the comp a for a throw in with the Burnes trade and kind of want to do that again. I can't find who will get those but maybe a team like the Dbacks would give us 2 solid prospects and a comp a pick of they have it.

    I can't see how this would pass any kind of vote. Maybe make it that starters need to throw 75 pitches or something. I really hate the idea of penalizing the team that has to pull a pitcher. If a starter has given up say 6 runs through 3 innings and the team pulls the dh, how does that make the game more exciting. The league should continue to look at more small tweaks to improve balls in play. I like the idea of making the mound like 6 inches further back and making the playe like an inch wider (especially whenever electronic ump get here). Less walks and more hits, I can't think those would be be big enough to ruin anything.

    That slo-mo of Yoho was spectacular.
  9. jay87shot
    Rhys will make 18 next year not 22. He only gets the 4 million if he opts out. If he opts in 18 will be his salary and the for the buyout is void because we don't have to buy him out. I am alright with Black getting a majority at 3rd. If he can't do it defensively we should know after a month or so. We then have Dunn, Mone, Collins who could get a shot. By mid-season I would hope on of Wilken or Boeve would be ready as well. If Black struggles at 3rd I would think the Bauers role for the rest of the year would be fine. I am on the trade Devin side of things. To save money we can probably trade a couple of Hoby, Bryse, and Payamps. Our bullpen depth is so massive and that's before adding the usual 2-3 under the radar adds. I fully expect Yoho to be solid and don't forget about Abner Uribe if he is healthy. I like DL Hall as the Bryse Wilson multi-inning/6th starter next year.
  10. jay87shot
    I agree he would be a great add and I have no idea why the Dodgers cut bait.
  11. jay87shot
    I doubt he becomes an ace but his breaking ball can give him some great upside. I think there is a high likelihood of a 4/5 starter with some #3 upside. I think maybe like Bryce Wilson with a better breaking pitch.
  12. jay87shot
    Great win, after a disaster of a 1st especially not scoring with bases load and no outs. This team has some major grit to it.
  13. jay87shot
    I love Made and Pena I just don't like putting guys in the Dominican league that high up. Give me a couple solid weeks in Carolina and top 100 it is. Our top 4 Quero, Misi, Pratt, Black all are probably 40-75 prospects and then there is a pretty decent gap to like Yophery, Henderson, Adams, Boeve, Bitoni, Wilken, Made, Pena etc who are maybe borderline top 150-200 (in my opinion) but where our organization is better than any other club is from like 5-25, even 25-50 is probably top in the league. Look at our 16-20 Lara, Made, Wichrowski, Letson, Yoho (on mlb.com) vs. the top systems Mariners, Cleveland, Tampa, Balt., Minny. Our guys are way better, and then think we have guys like Adamchecski, Ortuna, Anderson who aren't on any big publications radar as like 30-40 prospects. I bet a guy like Ernesto Martinez who probably ranks about 45-50 on our systems ranking would be a top 20 prospect for a bunch of teams.
  14. jay87shot
    I agree, if we are serious about making a playoff run a big part will be on the bullpen. Both of these guys have an unhittable vibe. I would rather have them than Hoby. Civale, Montas, Ross, even Bryce Wilson. If only one go with Yoho because of the accuracy. Dont forget about Carlos Rodriguez, he probably isn't a reliever option but could deserve a start or two down the stretch. That is if Hall isn't it and we still don't give Chad Patrick a look.

    Both Turang and Ortiz were perceived as plus SS defensively. For me, it makes sense to keep Turang at second because then you have a plus SS and Gold glove 2B. Where if Turang is SS than you have an average 3B and plus SS. You could move Turang to short and Ortiz to 2B but that is a bit risky making 2 position changes. Basically Turang's defense is to valuable to risk making a move. On top of that putting Ortiz at SS and 2B leaves 3rd open. Black, Boeve, and Wilken all could be the 3rd baseman of the future where our better 2B options are really in A ball (unless you are exceptionally high on Isaac Collins).

    Devin for Smith is the start of an interesting trade. I would probably want a couple interesting prospect in case Smith would be a flop. To be honest I would prefer Justin Foscue to Smith but Foscue is very much like Tyler Black that the bat should be good but where will he play.
  17. jay87shot
    I like your lineup, obviously it will depend on how the season ends. If Mitchell keeps hitting around .300 I kind of like Yeli at leadoff.
  18. jay87shot
    Great article Tim.
  19. jay87shot
    After tonight it is hard not to say Tobias.
  20. jay87shot
    Who would have guessed pre-season that Tobias Myers would be our ace. If he keeps it up a potential legitimate ace at that. I am going to have to watch a Paul Skenes game and route for him to get shelled. Tobias, Chourio, Hudson, Ortiz all top 10ish rookie. I am thinking we might only go with 3 starters for playoff series and go Williams, Megill, Hudson, Koenig, Payamps, Peguero, Misi, Yoho, and 2 of Civale, Wilson, Hoby, Hall, Ross, Montas, Bauk, Zas, Paredes or whomever else. Basically throw in a bullpen game somewhere after a starter goes like 7.
  21. jay87shot
    I would be fine with Smith if the price isn't crazy. No to Ursheala, he doesn't walk and goes against the offense philosophy. I'd rather just make Black a utility guy and play some 1st/3rd/OF/DH. There will be a ton of questions with the rotation but we do have amazing depth and lots of high end young arms that will be ready if there are injuries or ineffectiveness. Peralta, Woody, Rea, Tobias, Civale, Hall, Wilson (if need be) Misi, Patrick, CarRod, Henderson, Wichrowski add in a cheap vet (or maybe an Ashby miracle) who can start or be a multi inning reliever and that is light year ahead of what we had at the beginning of the year.
  22. jay87shot
    I would be ok with that if the Jays eat about 1/2 of Gausman's contract. I like Gausman but his fastball lost a click and it was the reason for his decline. Black alone is a lot for a 2/44 million 34 year old coming off a down year.
  23. jay87shot
    Here is something close to what I would expect 1) Devin to Texas for Justin Foscue, Winston Santos, and Jonathan Hernandez 2)Luis Lara, Hoby, and Alexander Cornielle for Drew Rasmussen Foscue gives us another upside infield bat that could platoon with Black and getting Rasmussen back is a risk but he could be a great buy low option with lots of upside. Sign a couple of cheap veteran arms C-Contreras 1B-Rhys,Black, Foscue 2B-Turang SS-Ortiz OF- Chourio, Mitchell, Frelick DH-Yeli Bench-Haase(resign), Perkins, Foscue/Black, Collins Hicklen/vet minor league deal P-Peralta, Rea, Tobias, Civale, Woody Pen-Megill, Hudson, Koenig, Mears, Payamps, Peguero, Rasmussen, Wilson/Paredes/Hernandez/Hall/Uribe?/Bauk/Zas vets
  24. jay87shot
    Giants sent Camilo Doval to the minors. He could be an interesting buy low candidate this offseason if he would be available. I doubt we pay for a starter maybe a Junis/Ross type who could be a starter or reliever. I could see a trade for one, it comes down to if the front office believes Tyler Black can be an everyday player defensively. I don't think I'd make a huge trade for an ace, if Black for a mlb ready IF or upside starter.

    Can we come up with a cool nickname for his changeup before he comes up. The Air-Ender, The Yoho Yoyo, Yoho-no-go
