Much like the FO, I’ve been holding on to the fun and optimism of 2023. This series to start the 2nd half is my wake up call.
This piece makes the most sense other than the Joe Ryan part. Parting with him is waving the white flag for 26-27. Ober is a huge ? for me and the young guys have been so erratic. Suddenly Pablo and Joe are the only rotation arms we can count on.
Definitely sell the impending free agents, better to get something than nothing for them - Paddack, France, Bader, Coulombe, Castro, Vazquez.
I say wait for the new ownership to make any deals for controllable guys (relievers are the exception) They will make their own decisions about who is in the FO and who they want to invest in or move.
