  1. If you are going to keep drafting college RP, when other teams don't as often.....you are either a genius or not all that bright.
  2. Deadline next year....what do you do with Sano until then?
  3. Thought game... If Plouffe stays a top 10 3B, do you move Sano to a new position , trade Plouffe, keep Sano down until Plouffe is no longer good?
  4. if your strategy is to not buy a championship, you have to be better, or your strategy won't work. This isn't some "lesson" we have to learn. How condescending. It's just a weird coincidence that some teams haven't lost 90+ games even 1 time in the last 10+ years? We disagree on this, but at least I don't make condescending remarks about it.
  5. I guess I don't get why we can't think they are both going to be great players........
  6. Like Correa's broken ankle? How do those lists look now.
  7. Seems unlikely he'll got 1 for the rest of the year..... Even with his swoon, he's still got a 108wRC+, and is 10th overall in WAR........you just don't toss him aside, when he's actually good compared to the league, unlike 1B and DH.....
  8. Tall pitchers make me nervous........hopefully they find some secret to unlock here.
  9. You know Buxton is better? Lots of "experts" have had Correa ahead of him for the past 6-9 months.
  10. And if most turn out to be bad, you will have extracted no value.......it's a tough choice, frankly.
  11. And play where, with Plouffe a top 10 3B for this year again, and likely next year?
  12. Now it is 2016? I was unaware that was announced..... So you think their true talent is to go 10+ games under .500 the rest of this year, but be competitive next year? How does that work?
  13. So basically don't question a pick? They have been terrible at developing pitchers.....of their starters ONE is a guy they drafted. I think skepticism has some warrant. I like Jay. The next pick? They have broken Meyer.......Bonnes did a study, almost no tall pitchers have worked out in all the majors.
  14. Were those needs not there before? I am confused.
  15. I share your skepticism that we see this guy any time soon.
  16. A reliever.......not sure how to feel about that. Good luck to them, they have exactly one SP in the rotation they drafted......so let's hope something has changed.
  17. If they are in the playoffs, they better not trade him unless they already got a better pitcher added somehow........so no, I can't believe they'd repeat the mistake of dealing while they are in the race, and getting worse......I just can't believe they'd do that again. And yes, I think there is a decent shot they sign him again.....and Hunter......
  18. Two weeks, I'd have him at 1B and RF right now......then call him and Buxton up in 2 weeks. Sano at DH, some 1B, some 3B, some RF, but in the lineup most games. I expect him to be in AA for some time, though, and not for my plan to be followed.
  19. Agreed, and I'm not complaining at all ..... just saying that the statement that they might take pitching because they lack arms.....and AA is STACKED.....well, I was just saying the could use more hitters in A-, A also.
  20. I don't think anyone is still arguing the Hunter signing was a bad idea, are they? I think a couple of you are arguing against nobody at this point. he's been much better than I thought, I was wrong for sure.
  21. There is an insider article on ESPN about how most GMs leave it up to the scouting director, and if they don't, then they have the wrong scouting director......is that not the case here? "Ryan has the final word"......
  22. It is hard to believe that anyone thinks there aren't better options than Duensing and Stauffer right now.....including and sadly, the FO.
  23. You laugh at people that were wrong in judging a baseball signing?
