  1. Of course, it's four to seven weeks before trades happen, unless history is wrong. So, sit back and relax for a bit....
  2. why? What are they going to do with the money? Now they have to spend money and trade prospects. When, exactly, should this team go in, if not a year like this?
  3. so, bad for a month, then good? So, faster than anyone they can trade for, given when teams start trading?
  4. in four to seven weeks, sure. He was the one available before that. Even then, do you think the will really trade stud prospects?
  5. Well, trades won't happen for at least four weeks, more like seven. So I doubt anyone adds help any time soon.....
  6. By the time teams are willing to trade, kimbrel will have pitched for at least a month..... But, I guess it's better to give up prospects and money, rather than just money to get help.....
  7. How old are you, because maybe before you were born.....
  8. No one for at least a month, I'd guess. Then? Bad pitchers, expensive pitchers, pitchers that will cost major prospects.....
  9. In a month or more.... Until then, this is the team.
  10. Except all the companies that fund politicians. I expect no change at all in terms of business owning politicians here. Not any time soon.
  11. Not me. Until they change, there is no evidence they will. In terms of money spending, or trading good prospects to get great players. I expect them to deal a mediocre prospect or two for minor help, and get bumped in the first round again.
  12. It's clear they need to add pitching. We'll see in the next month, I guess. They already passed on spending only money....
  13. They clearly felt differently, since they were the second highest bidder..... Or were they not really trying?
  14. No. Every expert says no, don't do that. You lose a year of development. Next year, maybe the guys you want get hurt. No. Take a player you believe in.
  15. Remember when they were interested in other expensive players and didn't sign them? Interested is meaningless. All he cost was money. Now if they want help, they have to give up players and money....
  16. All kimbrel costs is money. Sigh.
  17. An article on Castro: https://blogs.fangraphs.com/the-other-catcher-whos-killing-the-ball/
  18. For those that haven't heard, one of the CLE pitchers is taking time away from baseball to deal with a blood issue of some kind.....good luck to him.
  19. good luck with any movement toward liberal policies....he has no climate change plan (they basically copied it from other websites), now this. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/447023-biden-2020-campaign-confirms-he-supports-controversial-abortion-rule-report
  20. Plenty of first round hitter busts too. Probably at a lower rate, but plenty of them.
  21. Well, common ages include all kinds of guys who aren't more than org filler. Superstars move fast, that's part of what makes them great, they are up early.
  22. Carlos Carrasco "stepping away from baseball" to deal with a blood issue of some kind. Good luck to him!
  23. I like the idea of quantity on pitching. Good luck to all of them.
  24. That was also Fangraphs thoughts.... Lacking the high end guys, but lots of depth.
  25. They certainly seem to have a type for pitchers. College and big. It does seem like an older draft, which hopefully means some of the pitchers move quickly on relief roles.
