    If the Twins had Santana under contract for $12M they would be looking to dump him.
  2. DJL44
    The Red Sox are positively loaded with expensive, injured pitchers. $80M spent on Sandoval, Buehler and Giolito.
  3. DJL44
    I count 14 of their 40 man roster spots committed to relievers. They aren't going to spend big money to bring in Tanner Scott. I don't see how spending money to bring in a free agent question mark helps.
  4. DJL44
    The bullpen is pretty full as-is.
  5. DJL44
    Sean Manea just signed for more than Pablo Jorge Lopez is getting paid. I would much rather have Lopez.

    Wade had an 840 OPS vs LHP last season and 709 OPS vs LHP in 2023. His OBP is well above league average vs LHP. He'd be a useful addition to the team whether they play him in LF, 1B or DH. If they platoon him they should be fired. Jorge Polanco is the perfect addition for a team with 4th place aspirations who wants to please the fans by bringing back a familiar name.
  7. DJL44
    I expect there will be a lot of calls about Castro once Bregman and Torres are signed.
  8. DJL44
    Lowe from Texas to Washington.
  9. DJL44
    That's always the report for Canterino. I'll believe he's healthy after he's pitched 50 innings.
  10. DJL44
    Caba has higher ceiling (comparisons to Francisco Lindor). Keaschall has higher floor.
  11. DJL44
    He's probably a better prospect than Keaschall. The scouts love his glove at SS. Plus the Phillies threw in a Yasser Mercedes caliber outfielder.
  12. DJL44
    Tanner Hall is another interesting arm from the 2023 draft.

    RIP Rickey

    DJL44 replied to cmoss84's topic in Other Baseball

    Rickey might be the most interesting baseball player since Satchel Paige retired. The world was a better place with him in it.
  14. DJL44
    Yes, and they end up with guys like Joey Gallo - a redundant LH bat who didn't fit the roster at all.
  15. DJL44
    Larnach is the starting LF and Wallner is the starting RF. Moving either of them to 1B just moves the hole around like one of those puzzles with a missing piece.
  16. DJL44
    I probably like Connor Joe more than I should. He's not really an upgrade but he's a useful baseball player.
  17. DJL44
    Waiting around for solid players to be left without a chair at the end of the offseason musical chairs is a really bad plan.
  18. DJL44
    First base is not their biggest problem. Miranda would be just fine if they can't get Santana to come back for the same money as last season. The big hole is at 2B or 3B, depending on where Royce Lewis is playing. If they decide to add a 1B I expect MIranda to move to 3B as the starter.
  19. DJL44
    That would be something since he never has thus far.
  20. DJL44
    I'm with you on Keaschall. There is no reason to lock up an average LF/1B with a pre-debut contract.
  21. DJL44
    I have a good feeling that Rodriguez can field his position and I don't for Keaschall.
  22. DJL44
    I agree with that. I have more hope that 3 months in AAA can get him to be a competent fielder at 1B than I do that any length of time will make him competent at 2B.
  23. DJL44
    My comment wasn't about Joe Ryan specifically, but in general. If you can extend a player for less than they're worth you should, even if you can replace them from within. If Joe Ryan was willing to take a 6-year deal that only paid him $10M a season in his 30s (he likely isn't) they should sign him.
  24. DJL44
    He's not competent at 2B. He needs to move off 2B because he's so far down that depth chart defensively that he won't play. If he can hit well enough to make up for his defense at 2B then he can hit well enough to be 1B/DH.
  25. DJL44
    There isn't enough depth for that on the roster. Julien and Lee both project as MLB starters. If they're in AAA then Martin and Helman are starters. There are only 16 position players on the 40 man roster. One is Camargo. That means you have to pick 13 from the remaining 15 players.
