  1. I actually am beginning to think they and Detroit are the three best teams in teh NFL.....and the Cowboys are also good, and GB is trending right. At the same time KC and Buffalo and Cincy are not....
  2. I agree with those that say they are freeing up money to sign a legit SP and then deal a current pitcher for better players than they gave up.
  3. Looking like they are going with Dobbs, and I am not amused. It's Zimmer all over again. Seriously, between this and getting all conservative at the end of games, I am wondering who the coach even is at this point.
  4. He didn't have 3+ years of control left......but he did have 2, so close. Seattle just cleared another 20 million from its budget, so that could be a good sign.
  5. Agreed, I'd rather watch them lose to someone else, assuming they lose.....
  6. No one said we can't be skeptical..... But why every thread about him, including one with what could be good news? Do what makes you happy. If bring skeptical in this thread does that, fine by me. I'm going to hope, because why not? I'm just a fan, I don't need to decide if they need a backup.
  7. Reports are it won't be Hall......blech
  8. Nabobs of negativity thread....
  9. Just saw a mock where six QBs go before the Vikings even pick. Of course, I think they'll move up about four picks....
  10. Wallner put up 1.5 fwar in less than sixty games in left. Lewis, of course. Julien. Jeffers..... All young guys, all above average or elite
  11. I'd value Lee and Julien about the same, even though Julien has succeeded at a higher level.....if I were to trade either of them.
  12. by ugly you mean tenth in all of baseball after the July 1 this last year in runs scored? That's when they committed to the younger players that they clearly haven't developed.
  13. I'd deal Lee for a number 2 starter (that player is up to the FO to find and believe in) with 3+ years of control, but why would anyone deal that type of pitcher? 100% not for a rental, and likely not for 2 years of a player either. I understand the logjam, and the doubts about his bat (all 1 year of pro ball to judge him....), but he's a consensus top 10-20 player. That's not a player to deal w/o an insane return back (even if you have to bundle him to get it).
  14. I was hoping Severino for 1 year, but that's gone. I still think it will be a trade.
  15. Guessing here.... Three QBs go in the top ten. That means they'll have to trade up to get the fourth one. The fifth might drop to around fifteen, I'd guess. This is a deep QB draft, but ten teams need better QB play..... I'm guessing Nix goes third, but JJ might. Penix goes fifth or sixth, depending on how people feel about the LSU QB. Six could go in round one.
  16. This wouldn't shock me. The team is well protected by the press, so it isn't just hubris
  17. Lowering expectations lowers ticket sales. This whole thing can't help sales, making it a self fulfilling prophecy they have to cut spending. I'm really baffled here.
  18. Did Jeffers kill your dog? Wow. Every thread.
  19. If any of those guys need to play for a week or more, yikes. Farmer is the last backup I trade. Heck, what are the odds Lewis is healthy?
  20. Who's your backup SS? Because if it isn't Lee, you better hope CC plays every game.
  21. well, they'd likely have Sandy Leon type in AAA (and on the roster), so, um him (in addition to Camargo)? Trading Vazquez isn't punting the season. Let's not exaggerate his importance, imo.
  22. his defense has more value? That would be my guess. You said you can't compare guys across positions, the entire idea of the positional adjustment and measuring defense IS to allow you to compare 1B vs SS...that's the entire idea.
  23. It's literally the opposite
  24. He's clearly a DH and "emergency" catcher at this point....which is valuable if he's healthy. I think he could play 1B fine also. I'm betting he gets a 1 year deal in the 8-10 range.
  25. And yet, knowing they needed another catcher, they signed one.....maybe that was, you know, the plan.....They have one of the best catching duos in the game right now, so I don't get the constant complaining.
