  1. That's partly related to the position they played. And the number of games. But I agree, urshela is a better player. The question is ... What can they do with the saved money, is the difference that big, can Lee be the third baseman next year at some point if they have a shortstop? I don't know the answer to any of that, especially what they plan to do in free agency.
  2. It certainly isn't looking great, yet. Hopefully Ingram gets better, and Booth is good
  3. All four of those players for one of the Brewer's pitchers isn't enough.....
  4. No way I bring back Pagan. This is why he is, year after year. A tease. No way. No possible way. Not even if he paid the Twins to come back. The others? I keep them all, but I think for a few seconds about Urshela. If they think he can play SS (assuming they don't come to agreement with one of the big 4) for a few month, I keep him as the placeholder for Lewis / Lee 100%. Also, I'm not sure I love Miranda as much as others. Urshela put up 2.4 fWAR last year. I'd gladly take that again for what they'll pay him. And that's at 3B.....he's more valuable at SS (if he can play D at all). OTOH, I'd not be shocked if they dealt him or let him go. Lopez makes me nervous, but it isn't real money at all.
  5. They could sign both, bring in a cheap placeholder at short, and still have a lower payroll than last year.
  6. I would bring him back for a reasonable deal. I think if used correctly, he's still quite good.
  7. 100% this. Arraez and what gets you Lopez from Miami?
  8. Just put Wallner in RF (and deal Kepler for a prospect). Find a right handed hitting OF for left/center if you really want another OF.....but they have a lot of options (not to mention Austin Martin) already in the system. They should be looking at DH / C / SP / SS.
  9. Proving baseball ownership is all about real estate development for many owners.... The media will repeat the ridiculous claims about jobs and a huge impact on the economy, and the taxpayers will subsidize the billionaire.
  10. Some people are nervous about a 750K signing, who can be removed from the 40 man roster if needed? I'm confused. Every team outside a handful has guys who have one or two jobs. Garlick is that guy in MN until they get another RH OF. He can literally be removed from the 40 man at any point if needed.
  11. It's better for Minnesota that GB won, but I still hate it
  12. Craziest game ever.
  13. They've been good this year. Buffalo just is very good, and they are playing with two backups..... But, ya, Kirk had no chance there
  14. I said it two weeks ago, they need a kicker. Also, no way I thought it would be this close. They might be a legit playoff team at least.
  15. It doesn't help they are always behind because of the defense..... But they aren't 7-1 without him this year. People really seem to forget how bad the defense was last year
  16. Agreed.... But being the sixth or so best team isn't bad. It's just not good enough. Other than the trade down in the first round, it's hard to argue with the decisions of this front office so far.
  17. The bad play was third down. Too many times this year they throw deep on third and short. The fourth down was just a good defensive play.
  18. I agree with going for it. I hate the third down decision.
  19. My wife and her friends are better tacklers. I don't get to actually watch many games, how has this team ever won?
  20. We have zero evidence this is bloat. We literally have no idea what they do, or if it matters on the field or not.
  21. Sure, but it would be much easier with Allen.
  22. If he doesn't play, I don't know how we can assume anything other than someone sold their soul for this season. Or lots of souls.
