    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.

    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.

    Great article Tim.

    After tonight it is hard not to say Tobias.
  7. 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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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

    Yophery .253/.393/.449 6 hr 12 sb 41bb/40 k Lara .260/.341/.385 2 hr 7 sb 21bb/28k Chourio .296/.386/.447 5 hr 8 sb 23bb/28k Made .343/.461/.547 5 hr 23 sb 31bb/24 k Pena .399/.459/.595 1 hr 34 sb 13 bb/14k Ortuna .342/.457/.470 1 hr 18 sb 21 bb/19 k Anderson .288/.412/.536 8 hr 14 sb 29bb/34 k Comparing the 4 this year, to the recent 3 I would say all 4 should start in Carolina. C=Dinges IF=Bitonti, Di Turri, Made, Pena, Adamchezcki, Johan Barrios, Tyler Rodriguez OF=Anderson, Ortuna (1B/LF/utl?) Looks like a good idea to move someone to the OF.

    We could have money especially if Hoskins leaves and we trade Devin. However Freddie will get a raise, Ashby makes 3-4, so does Chourio I believe. We also owe a decent amount on buyouts for guys.

    Everything I start to get a bit down on this club they bring me back. Great offensive display especially against Sale and Morton. I was even going to rip Bauers in this post and then he spanks one.
  16. jay87shot
    If he can stay healthy for a few years there is definitely some 30/30 potential in Mitchell. I think some of those holes or flaws are just the result of not being healthy for more than 2 months at a time for the past 3 years.
  17. jay87shot
    Agree, only like 100 people family attendance. If they can have a field of dreams game why not a sandlot game.
  18. jay87shot
    Dang, 33 hbp in 89 games. Does he stand in the box weird or is it something like everyone tries to pitch him inside. I know he got hit a ton last year as well. I feel like a broken record but man are our minors and second tier prospects under rated. At 18 where do you think Bitonti would have been drafted this year, borderline top 10 with the other top 2 everyday HS prospects or later 1st? Either way that should make him a borderline top 100 prospect soon enough.

    The big part of the offseason for me is if Rhys picks up his option or not. At this point, I can't see him hitting free agency. However if he has a strong last 2 months and is hitting close to career averages .245/.350/.450+ 30HR he probably will decline. I think from there getting a solid return for Devin will be key. I doubt we have much money to do any thing big outside of that. It would be nice to just pick a spot for Black and give him a shot, otherwise I would be getting something for him while he has value. With Freddy, Woody, Rea, Civale, and Tobias there is the start to a nice rotation (to bad Gasser is gone for 2025). With Hall, Patrick, Misi, CarRod some likely vet depth adds for depth we don't necessarily need a big add. The only other thing I would bring up is the idea of trading Freddy. He has 2 affordable years left after this year and has been solid. However if we can get a highend return (two top 100 prospects and 2 other solid pieces) I think it might be worth thinking about. Minus the big strikeout numbers he has just been a slightly above average starter his entire career except 21.

    Sorry this is obviously to early but I always am looking for interesting transaction ideas.
  21. jay87shot
    Any thoughts on Yoho maybe making the move to starting. With 4 pitches that have plus movement he might not lose much effectiveness losing a couple mph.
  22. jay87shot
    Has there been any news on any of our draft picks moving up to Carolina? I get that most of the better college players still spend a week or so in Arizona getting acclimated so maybe later in the week???

    I live in Michigan, if the Detriot GM trades Skubel they will fully lose the fan-base. For them to trade Skubel they would need to get a Soto haul or better. The Tigers should have money to extend him. Depending on his rehab I would be really interested in Sandy Alcantara. The Marlins probably wouldn't trade him on cheap but with the guys they added maybe we could build a package around Black. Maybe Pablo Lopez could be available depending on the Twins finances. He hasn't been great but advanced stats show a better pitcher. He probably would be as expensive as other top starters and his stuff is still excellent. Is this the offseason to trade Yeli? At 33 next year he still likely has a couple good years left if the back holds. He would likely be the 2nd best bat available so we could capitalize on a weaker position player market. I get he would have to approve a deal but it could happen especially if we push him hard on playing 1st and he puts his foot down.
  24. jay87shot
    Yeah I just put everyone in and figured if they didn't sign the admission would just take him out.

    Something went wrong with my top portion??? The bottom part is my list.
