    It was Rick Epstein, not David.
  2. lecroy24fan
    I know I'm in the minority but I wouldn't have touched Rodriguez with a ten foot pole. When he's bad, he's awful and it's never a game or 2. It's like he can't mentally handle a bad game.
  3. lecroy24fan
    You have traded Dobnak and you have him as SP 5. Who would you use in that spot instead? You didn't include Bednar in your bullpen.
  4. lecroy24fan
    Releasing Rogers and Duffey?
  5. lecroy24fan
    i wouldn't be surprised if they work out a deal before an arb hearing. Most of his work was in low leverage situations with TEX but he was a prospect with OAK a few years back. I like the claim.
  6. lecroy24fan
    I think there's a decent chance Refsnyder comes back on a minor league deal,. Going to have a few veterans at AAA anyways.
  7. lecroy24fan
    That's what I was saying. 39 including Cotton and the 60 day guys.
  8. lecroy24fan
    39 including Cotton and the several still on the 60 day IL.
  9. lecroy24fan
    Rob Refsnyder outrighted. Jarrel Cotton claimed off waivers from TEX. Alex Comolme's option declined, gets buyout. Cotton might be a good claim. He was pretty good for the crappy Rangers last year.
  10. lecroy24fan
    Keep Sauce. If for some reason in the future he can't remain a catcher you can use him at 1B and DH. The power is there so he'd be fine.
  11. lecroy24fan
    In no way will the owners be okay for losing games after the debacle the last 2 seasons. Manfred has already said that the bogus runner in extra innings will be going away. Maybe the only good thing he's ever done.
  12. lecroy24fan
    There is a much greater need at SS.
  13. lecroy24fan
    If they sign Taylor he would be at SS most of the time, with Arraez getting time in LF.
  14. lecroy24fan
    Just stayed with options listed and went a little over the even budget. Basically it came down to filling needs. Taylor for SS although I think he'll get more than $12M. Melancon for the bullpen is that difference when I went over. Need a vet arm who can close if needed. I really don't care for most of the options listed, and I think Jansen gets more than $12M. Also considered Iglesias but he can be very bad for long stretches. Needed 2 SP and I didn't like anyone below Rodon when trying to save money, and Stroman kept me from adding Ray. Moved Dobnak to SP because he's not good when he's used as a RP. Put Arraez at DH only because he should play nearly everyday, knowing they'd be moving players through the DH spot. Struggled with the last bench spot but went with Refsnyder over Celestino as Celestino needs to play everyday and it wouldn't happen barring injuries with the big club. Could have signed a lower listed FA but they're mainly SS and I already filled that and have Gordon and Polanco can always play there on occasion.
  15. lecroy24fan
    I'd be fine with Taylor at SS until Lewis or Martin is ready. He can also be the backup to Buxton in CF right now, leaving Kepler in RF most of the time, and play some in LF and RF. I'd rather have him as that 4th OF than Celestino who needs to play everyday. He's a proven OF on top of MI. Or if you get someone else to play SS you can use him all over. Most of all this would leave Polanco at 2B nearly everyday.
  16. lecroy24fan
    Well when the actual backup plan was Luis Arraez, who was pressed into duty at 3B when Donaldson got hurt it isn't unreasonable to have ;et Eddie go. When injuries pile up you can't really control having to go to your third, fourth, fifth options. And Eddie was terrible in Cleveland. I'd guess his WAR was even less there. Edit: .6 in CLE and .5 with ATL.
  17. lecroy24fan
    I never use ESPN. I've seen way too many mistakes with their stats.
  18. lecroy24fan
    I did see lot of the games. he was definitely average to above average at 1B. Having Morneau work with him will only make him better. Like how Tom Kelly helped Morneau get better, I believe Morneau will do that for Kiriloff, as he has talked about doing that during a few broadcasts.
  19. lecroy24fan
    Marcus Semien should me mentioned as well. One thing I would consider, if they are intent on Lewis or Martin being the long term answer, is waiting it out until 2 or three of the SS sign, then get a one or two year deal with one of the others left.
  20. lecroy24fan
    I know you're thinking more recently but the only one I can think of is Jack Morris.
  21. lecroy24fan
    The best World Series of all time.
  22. lecroy24fan
    JT Riddle has elected to become a free agent.
  23. lecroy24fan
    CLE, DET, or KC could have been that team as well. As I said in my post above CHI cosated because they had no competition.
  24. lecroy24fan
    The White Sox are being exposed in this series. Breaking it down to how they did vs playoff teams (13-19): HOU 2-5 BOS 4-3 Mil 1-2 NYY 1-5 STL 2-1 TB 3-3 They beat up on just 5 teams (20-8): BAL 7-0 MIN 13-6 CHI (N) 5-1 TEX 5-1 DET 12-7 They were on 39-34 in the 2nd half. 18-24 in one run games. Jusr 16-13 in SEP/OCT. They were an average team that beat up on a few bad teams. They coasted down the stretch. Had there been another team challenging them in the division they may not have been able to hlpd them off.

    It's not under the Twins because the Twins are never mentioned in it.
