  1. You didn't answer the question. And, both of those guys were signed to very long term deals, with the knowledge it wouldn't work in year one. I don't understand how anyone is judging those deals in one year.
  2. concur. Though the Yankees are much closer to the "cap".
  3. they might not be willing to go that high, teams, I'm told, have budgets
  4. I'd guess minor league deal, later in the off season. But that's a guess.
  5. What are MadBum's injury concerns? He fell off a dirt bike, and what else?
  6. Yup, worth it if they can now sign Rendon or Cole or two good starting pitchers....otherwise, not so much.
  7. Surprised Didi only got 1 year, if true. Also, the Angels are clearing money......
  8. Why would the Padres, who are either going to try to compete this year or next, trade Gore? No chance.
  9. Odorizzi is a very good value at 17 million. JA is not.
  10. And the turn around probably wasn't just luck. He ditched a pitch the team wanted him to use before the turn around. I'm in.
  11. I am intrigued by this idea. But unsure if I would do it.
  12. I'm considering smoking prime rib
  13. No. How good is he really?
  14. How well has not signing big time free agents worked out for this team?
  15. Check out the articles about the Strasburg signing for interesting info on his comps and for those players worked out. You might be surprised.... If Cole has similar comps, he's surprisingly likely to be worth this deal....
  16. Prospects have value. I believe Lewis is worth between fifty and seventy million. https://www.drivelinebaseball.com/2019/02/prospect-valuation-much-top-prospects-worth-professional-baseball-teams/
  17. I'm more of a cook, than baker. Tonight we made Bolognese sauce and polenta. We will do some kind of fancy meat on Christmas, with creme brulee. Making hors d'oeuvres for Christmas Eve. I do like a good cookie.... We'll see
  18. Not sure I understand your "argument"....but it is funny. I like Craig. He and I have interacted online more than several times. He's been kind enough to recommend movies and beverages to me in the past, and he recently told me he won't be buying a fixer upper after watching the amount of work my wife and I have done on our 100 year old house we just bought.....seems like a really good guy. That would literally find your argument funny.
  19. For some reason, my wife randomly told me this joke yesterday.....
  20. Interestingly.....if you go to Fangraphs, they'll show you the comps for Stras, and how those players did..... If he's like his comps, he'll be worth this contract........
  21. Weird how every year it works out that it just doesn't work out. Every. Single. Year. Their largest FA signing ever is ...... Phil Hughes.* Until this year, when they break the mold, and sign Ryu. That's my prediction....they sign Ryu. *that's what I read here, I've not double checked.
  22. If he's that good, why would he sign for so little money on an extension, given what has happened this off season?
  23. They have 30 million, at least, to spend. And Cruz and probably Rosario leave after this year. They have more than enough money to extend the players they have, and sign a legit FA.
  24. Bumgarner. Ryu's health concerns me.
  25. If I'm the Angels, I pivot to Ryu and Bumgarner both.......but I'm not the Angels.....
