  1. I guess it ended up not mattering, so that's good, but it would have mattered a lot if that big fly from Cron would have hooked 1 degree less.
  2. You certainly wouldn't trade a haul for Story just to move him to 1st. None of these guys are going to have much value if any over Vogelbach at 1B. With the acquisition of Adames I just don't think a trade for Story makes much sense anymore.
  3. Moran is fine as a target but he is entirely just a guy in terms of value. Not saying he's worth nothing but it isn't much. I think we overrate Kelly a little bit, but I wouldn't do Kelly for Moran. Moran’s value I think is a little closer to an Alec Bettinger type arm.
  4. Some people do exercise a lot.
  5. Has anyone else gotten into sleeper Dynasty leagues?
  6. Alas, you must’ve got some bad information. here’s spotrac which says it’s more. https://www.spotrac.com/mlb/cincinnati-reds/mike-moustakas-8532/ As well as baseball prospectus https://legacy.baseballprospectus.com/compensation/cots/national-league-central/cincinnati-reds/ Even our friends at brew crew ball have it as more There's nothing in your first link that says Moose made $14M from the Brewers in '19. The second link literally confirms what I said and contradicts what you said.
  7. Moustakas got 11 million and when they declined their half of his mutual option he got another 3 for a total of 14, at least that’s what the websites say look it up. I don’t even think the Pirates will trade Moran in the first place, but the bottom line is he has a career .750+ OPS and plays corner infield and is under team control for 2022 and 2023. When a .750 OPS is going to cost you 10+ million AAV on the free agent market, you can bank on it Moran has significant value. Not a guy you build around per se, but like Avi Garcia a capable player. I did look it up before I even posted that. His base salary was 7 million and the buyout on the 11M option was 3M for a total of 10M. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2019/02/brewers-to-re-sign-mike-moustakas.html
  8. Just because a team unwisely overpaid someone for production doesn't mean that other teams also need to do so for an unrelated player.... Says you. Look around the league it's not 2004 any more. Any type of every day starting player in the major leagues in making 7-10 million. Heck, Moustakas got 14 million from the Brewers for 2019. It's the reality, if a team is looking to sign players for their starting lineup for less, they're shopping in the bargain bin of older veterans, players coming off major injuries, etc. Thus, the fact Moran is making 2.8 million for the Pirates and has two more passes through arbitration makes him incredibly valuable. If Moran was a free agent right now he'd be looking for 4 times as much or more per year. Moose got 10M from the Brewers for 2019, very big difference between that and 14M. I've always thought Moose was pretty overrated but he has produced over 15 WAR for his career while Moran is basically replacement level and always has been. No way would I have given Moose 64M but he is not comparable to Moran just because they have the same career OPS.
  9. As an aside, Pat Connaughton should not play almost 30 minutes in the ECF.
  10. Nah, series definitely ain't over. But I'll be approaching Game 2 with a lot more anxiety than I would have otherwise because they've got to get it. At least go into Atlanta just needing to steal 1 of 2 games to make it a best out of 3 with HCA. I could see this series ending up like Boston and I could see it ending up like Miami. Gun to my head I'd say they still win the series but I certainly wouldn't bet a significant sum on it.
  11. It's fine to be a R-E-L-A-X guy but I can understand why people aren't. They massively disappointed in the postseason the last two years. The last series was great, but there's no real recent historical precedent to look at and confidently say, "They'll be fine". I don't know if they'll be fine.
  12. We 100% need Game 2. I know we were down 2-0 to the Nets but at least we were heading home, we cannot head to Atlanta down 2-0. Right now I think we probably are looking at leaving Atlanta with the series tied 2-2 in a dogfight in my hopeful scenario.
  13. Our fans after Game 5 when Durant scored 49: "Look, Durant isn't going to push 50 points every game." Game 7, another 48 points
  14. A 7 point lead with minutes left to play at home and we pissed it away. I'd recommend people stop thinking this is just going to be a massive cakewalk just because it looks like one on paper or you're setting yourself up for a huge disappointment. This is still a Wisconsin sports team.
  15. 48 points from Trae tonight. I thought Jrue was this supreme defensive player.
  16. I am so sick of the piss poor end of quarter/game designs by this team.
