    No thank you on a 6 year deal to any pitcher outside of a select few. Corbin is not one of the select few.

    I think a lot of this kind of talk comes from the mandate of ownership to try to win with a roster that wasn't capable of winning and a farm system that didn't have the talent to get the players needed to make it happen so he needed to make a bunch of trades to improve around the margins and hopefully hit on a big one that put them over the top. Not exactly an easy thing to do.

    This move makes no sense for the Mariners if they aren't getting additional prospects. Crawford is not enough, especially when they're giving up a decent relief pitcher and taking on Santana's salary.

    They're getting Diaz at his absolute peak value, something he's probably not going to replicate again and now are stuck with Cano through his age 41 season. This is hardly a win for the Mets. A player doesn’t have to have their peak season to be a difference maker. Diaz figures to be very good to elite through his controllable years. And many teams would love to be stuck with a hitter like Cano. You are off base here unless you can provide some more detail to why you think this. Diaz is not a difference maker if he pitches like he did in 2017 and with how volatile relievers are, that's probably just as likely as repeating 2018. How many teams would love to be stuck paying Cano $20 million in his age 38-40 seasons?

    Then why don't you opposite of divorce him?

    Just a really bad deal by the Mets.

    I don't need him telling me he made a mistake. That was already said when he non-tendered him.

    Joe Alexander was worse because he was the higher draft pick and Wilson will probably have the same fate as Alexander. A salary filler for a bench piece from a rebuilding team and the rebuilding team might hope that he turns into a decent bench player, realize he can't play basketball and just let him go to China to play.

    The good players get underpaid. The mediocre or worse ones get overpaid.

    If what you say is true and he's been taking PEDs for 10 years and was only caught once, don't you think he would continue doing them instead of stopping?

    Lovely. Basically a home game for Stanford. Stanford was 10,000+ seats short of selling out against Wazzu this year and almost 10,000 short of selling out against USC early in the season when Stanford was ranked in the top 10 and USC was rated in the top 20. Not really concerned about the Badgers facing a hostile crowd. The only way it would be hostile is if Badger fans saw a performance similar to the one against Minnesota.

    He has a .693 career OPS against LHP, so it was really stupid to acquire him if that was the reason.

    Yeah, they're still dumb. I don't think anyone thought any differently after they hired an agent as their GM.

    If millennial jokes weren't stupid I would say if I was going to spend $19.82 on a piece of ****, I'd at least make sure it came from Whole Foods. Instead of Income Tax is there an Income Tax and student loan space instead? Is the Go Directly to Jail chance card now Go Directly to Bed because you have to work multiple jobs to make ends meet?

    Nah, he's terrible. Can't catch, can't rebound, not a very good shooter. Just nothing positive about him.
  17. trwi7
    No team is giving him a multi-year deal because if he plays like he did again in 2018, they're stuck with him for multiple years.

    They really only miss Henson because Thon Maker is terrible. If there was any other competent backup center (and Christian Wood might be because he looked so much better than Thon in garbage time against the Blazers) Henson wouldn't be missed so much.

    This is simply not the case. If teams are in a position to contend come mid-July they are more willing to overpay via trade for a postseason run. Because of this, there is generally a hotter market for the rental player amongest contending teams. Also, in Bumgarner's specific case, he's coming back from a injury/decline, so if he has a monster, bounce back to form first half, his trade value will skyrocket from where it's currently at. "I am willing to give up more for 15 starts and no draft pick than I am for 32 and a draft pick." You understand my skepticism.

    A guy getting traded with a full year left is always going to have more value than a guy with half a year.

    Outdoor hockey games are awful for every viewer. Says who? You? When I went to the one at Wrigley it was rather fun. I suppose if you like terrible sight lines, they're great.

    You must have missed the 63 - 32 loss to Indiana at Camp Randall back in 2001. I was going to say that game against Cal Poly in 2008 but it turns out they actually won that. Might as well have been a loss. That was a 7-win year plus an embarrassing bowl performance. Cal Poly may have been worse because I'm pretty sure they are/were FCS and I believe they missed several extra points. Game doesn't even get to OT if they make them.

    I wouldn't touch this if I was the Giants GM.

    Counterpoint: Outside of one fluke year Josh Harrison has sucked and isn't worth the money it would cost to sign him.
