  1. Might do some damage to his ego, which may not be a bad thing..........
  2. You can never have enough pitching, and then if the youngsters perform throughout you have assets to keep the farm system replenished. Your retunn on trading Pablo was already a bit lower than it should be based on his contract and now has bottomed out. Selling low is never a good idea.
  3. yes and they may need so sign arms for depth. I would still like to see Koepech signed, if nothing more then to possibly be an asset to flip at the deadline.
  4. Tigers ace Skubal is having elbow surgery. After the record Arbitration, he may be looking at a smaller FA contract in the off season, or the Tigers lost a potential trade piece as well. Just pointing out that for a pitcher in today's baseball it is more a matter of when you will have surgery, not if.
  5. If we are out of the race, which we should be, then maybe getting something in return with the conversation around - we want to extend, but if you intend to explore FA then we will trade you to a contender so you can have a shot at a title and try and convince you to come back.
  6. yes - but most likely too late on Jeffers............
  7. Wallner to the minors is the easiest way for Emma to be promoted - but as stated, the need to get Martin in the lineup is still there. For all of the angst against Larnach, I think he is proving his value
  8. Outman isn't going anywhere. He plays his role of PR and steals bases. Anyone else brought up would need to play more and then the 2-3 start a week they would get. Plus, Martin needs to play more.
  9. meaning Lee would be a utility with Gray and Martin would be the OF for Outman. Not a 1:1 change, just different roster construction.
  10. I understand your point - but I still think it was a bad deal. He is hitting almost .280 and playing SS for Houston. Would have made Lee a utility player and maybe no Outman on the roster.
  11. The BP not being good was a pretty much known thing once it was blown up last year. I was thinking back on all of the trades. and how I feel about them now: 1. Jax trade - do it again; yes 2. Castro, Columbe - yes do them again as they were not resigning 3. Duran - I hated this one at the time and do miss him at the end of games. However Abel and Tait have promise and I think I would do this one again. 4. Varland - bad, bad, bad. Him back now and I think we have a couple of more wins. 5. Correa trade - got rid of money: but how would we look with him having his 2026 year and playing SS for us. Maybe another win or two. The money dump didn't bring back anyone so we could have kept him. So 4/5 not done and we may be at .500.
  12. Stats are correct on Morris, and put in as a solid BP arm. I think the extra inning yesterday was too save an arm - and was a good call from Shelton
  13. Rojas will be on the train to St. Paul when Funderburk is back on Friday
  14. Lets keep Ryan - and see how Prielipp's health holds out.
  15. yes - sign him. If he performs great, bonus for 2026. But even if he performs average - could be dealt at deadline and thus keep our young arms and a depth of SP
  16. If they struggle to a large extent - Giolito could be an option. Depends on cost and options. I think both Ober and SWR need more opportunities though
  17. A pennant within the next 5 years. Some trades look better now then they did at the time. If they could take back the Varland trade, we would have a closer to upgrade the pen without taking anything away from the current roster.
