  1. This will never happen. You are grossly inflating the worth of both Burnes and Adames, especially for one year before both become free agents.
  2. 17-4 217K 2.94 ERA 1.17 FIP
  3. Exactly!! 2024 is a rebuilding year.
  4. No worries, we just signed Eric Haase as our backup catcher.
  5. Wow, it seems we should have traded Burnes for him straight up with this information.
  6. Apparently MLF hasn’t only ignored the Barry situation, but his handling of Jaire Alexander could also be a failure. I think these 2 issues (which we are aware of; possibly more that we haven’t heard of) also appear to affect his players morale. The Alexander situation has been very confounding since Jaire’s comments on his playing situation last week. His practice/game availability hasn’t been made very clear and certainly are unique. It appears that Alexander has set his own recovery time and MLF doesn’t appear to have much say in his decision, from Campbell’s comments today. Does the inmate control the asylum? It makes me wonder if the trade of outspoken Rasul Douglass had something to do with MLF attempting to take back control of the clubhouse. These possibilities might be worth considering. Maybe it might be time to reconsider MLF’s employment status here.
  7. I believe Joe Barry is best suited purchasing a ticket and sitting on the top row of Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, NC . Too bad we’re not lucky enough to see him there on Christmas Eve.
  8. Because almost all coaches strive for a NFL coordinator position. Ask Matt Patricia on the Eagles, and he was a former HC. Plus you do everything possible to win games and make the playoffs. I really don’t think changing DC at any point in the season would be negative, especially with all the defensive coaches (9) still there to maintain continuity and relationships.
  9. I totally agree with this sentiment. At this point there is no way I trust MLF firing Barry this off-season. Either MLF has no idea that Barry is a failure or…what?
  10. So are you saying that MLF is on his own and is only answerable to himself until Murphy decides to let him go as Murphy isn’t playing GM or coach. Who breaks the tie on football decisions when Gutey and MLF disagree? There has got to be a system in place when MLF continues to make stupid decisions (Berry) where someone needs to intervene for the team’s wellbeing.
  11. I think it might be time for Gutey to step in and give MLF an ultimatum, “Either Barry goes or you both go”. Look how much the Viking defense has improved in one year after they hired Brian Flores.
  12. Yeah I wouldn’t pay the guy the $30,000,000 contract everyone’s talking about.
  13. They didn’t have Dillion in the backfield their last 3 plays.
  14. I don’t think so, the first Lions game followed by the Vikings loss were much worse. Probably this was MLF’s worst game this year. I’d also hold off on that large contract everyone wants to sign Love to this week.

  16. The Ohtani signing may have eliminated the Dodgers as a trade partner for Adames. Today the Yankees traded 2021 first round shortstop prospect Trey Sweeney to the Dodgers so they could open up a 40 man roster spot for Ohtani. FROM ESPN In a move that opens up a 40-man roster spot for Shohei Ohtani, the Los Angeles Dodgers traded reliever Victor Gonzalez and infielder Jorbit Vivas to the New York Yankees for shortstop prospect Trey Sweeney, it was announced Monday. The Dodgers reached a 10-year, $700 million deal with Ohtani on Saturday. The move also makes room on the Dodgers' roster for Joe Kelly, who reached a deal Saturday to return to the the team. The 23-year-old Sweeney, the 20th overall pick in the 2021 MLB draft, batted .252 with 13 homers, 49 RBIs and 20 stolen bases in 100 games at Double-A Somerset last season. Anthony Volpe took over the Yankees' shortstop job as a rookie last season. The left-handed Gonzalez, 28, went 3-3 with a 4.01 ERA in 33 relief appearances with the Dodgers in 2023, striking out 33 and walking 10 in 33 2/3 innings. He averaged 94.6 mph with his sinker and also throws sliders and changeups. Gonzalez, who missed the 2022 season after starting on the injured list, is 9-4 with one save and a 3.22 ERA in 93 career games with Los Angeles since 2020.
  17. Arnold recently said that he has no plans playing Yelich at 1st base. So I guess that’s out.
  18. Maybe even a phone or e-mail would work, too.
  19. I seriously doubt it.
  20. The GM Winter Meetings must be the most overrated event on the MLB calendar.
  21. If anything the last month has taught me is not to look ahead at the schedule and start counting wins. With injuries, referees, upsets, and just football it is virtually impossible to do, and most often never works out to your expectations.
  22. You must have been getting a beer when they had that shot.
  23. Wiemer would be the ultimate “sell low” player. Out of the outfielders listed, trading him would return the least value (except maybe Taylor). I believe the best trade chip would be Sal Frelick. Trading Frelick would bring you a greater return. With Tyler Black on the precipice of joining the major league team Black would be comparable to Frelick as a leadoff batter with much better base running skills. With the team desperate for power hitting keeping Wiemer would be preferable to Frelick as well Joey being the better athlete and defensive outfielder. However, I believe the best thing would be to keep the youngsters with Wiemer beginning the season in Nashville to see if he can reestablish his batting skills and make up for the year of development he missed in MiLB last year. With the injuries that are guaranteed (I’m talking to you Mitchell) to occur having extra bodies in Nashville is not a bad thing to have in 2024 to see what we have.
  24. Congrats to D.Williams. NEW YORK -- Baltimore's Félix Bautista was a unanimous winner of the Mariano Rivera American League Reliever of the Year Award, and Milwaukee's Devin Williams won the Trevor Hoffman National League honor Wednesday. Bautista, 28, was 8-2 with a 1.48 ERA and 33 saves in 39 chances for the AL East champion Orioles. The right-hander made his final appearance Aug. 25 and had Tommy John surgery Oct. 9, which likely will cause him to miss the 2024 season. Williams, 29, was 8-3 with a 1.53 ERA and 36 saves in 40 opportunities for the NL Central champion Brewers. The right-hander also won the award in 2020 and joined former teammate Josh Hader, Edwin Díaz, Liam Hendriks, Kenley Jansen and Craig Kimbrel as the only multiple winners of the honor, known as the Delivery Man of the Year Award from 2005 to '13. Rivera and Hoffman were among the six voters, joined by fellow Hall of Famers Dennis Eckersley and Rollie Fingers along with John Franco and Billy Wagner. Balloting was based on the regular season and used a system in which the first choice got five points, the second got three and the third got one. Cleveland's Emmanuel Clase was second in the AL after winning last year, and Toronto's Jordan Romano was third.
  25. My choice would be Caratini for 1 or possibly 2 years. Bring up Quero if he’s ready at the end of May or in June. Ease him into the starting lineup with Contreras and Yelich sharing DH among others. The only question at this point is if Quero can hit major league pitching, as defensely he is already being talked about as a future gold-glover.
