    If the MLB rotation included 3 of these 4 to start the season, who would project to make up the AAA rotation?

    I think that's why a Price trade makes sense as Boston as far as I know is figuring out how to fit a Betts contract into their budget. I'm sure Boston is asking teams to take on his whole contract and we're waiting for that to come down into the 20-25/yr range.

    I'm guessing you started with the Kole Calhoun bit and worked around it. Genius.

    As long as Romo can spin his sliders he'll be useful. If nothing else after Odo puts in his typical 5 and 2/3, but has 112 pitches and 2 runners on base, Romo can put out that fire.

    I think the price of a future Berrios extension went up this winter and is blowing up the future budget. I think theres still a chance for Keuchel or Ryu for 2 years and a nice couple option years, but I don't expect any long term deal for Bumgardner. Bring on Thorpedo and Smeltzer.

    I wasn't advocating it but I thought he was a sure thing. Former Cy Young winner fits the 'impact pitcher' narrative, available for a 1 or 2 year deal.

    Rick 'Better than Nothing?' Porcello is off the board...
  8. lukeduke1980
    Ryu like all these players has an agent. He will include the Twins if it means additional leverage
  9. lukeduke1980
    I had this same idea about Darvish after seeing some speculation about Boston moving Price. The amount of money you are willing to take on likely dictates what you have to give up in terms of prospects.

    If Moustakas gets 4 years, Donaldson's looking for 4 or 5. Probably will get like 4 years 88. I could see ChiSox getting aggressive and moving Moncada to 2B
  11. lukeduke1980
    Probably have to get creative. Collin McHugh and turn him back to a starter? Hope for a Rick Porcello bounceback? Sign Brett Anderson and Rich Hill and hope to get 25 combined starts?
  12. lukeduke1980
    Donaldson's a beast and an MVP. Moose seems to be a great clubhouse guy and kept the Brewers in things after Yelich went down. No thanks on Todd Frazier though.
  13. lukeduke1980
    Is Ryu getting only 2 years realistic?
  14. lukeduke1980
    I expect Cinci thinks they can get a decent return in July for Bauer if they happen to be out of things.
  15. lukeduke1980
    If we don't retain Odorizzi then I'd consider Gibson as an option, but I'd rather not have both
  16. lukeduke1980
    At least we know Martin Perez won't be coming back?
  17. lukeduke1980
    Encarnacion is on my list of former Yankees we should sign just so they don't destroy us anymore - along with Didi, Gardner, probably others...

    The unbalanced schedule will continue to elevate one team from the Central every year and properly expose them, less Cleveland of recent years. Many wins against 3 terrible division opponents in their empty stadiums. Come playoff time our Central champs receive culture shock of The Stadium and are exposed to be the 84 win team they would probably be with a balanced schedule.
  19. lukeduke1980
    Good enough to win the Central. Probably the same next year.
  20. lukeduke1980
    And thus begins the silver lining of this year's playoff exit. Our young players all get a taste, and next year they'll be ready. And therefore we don't need to improve the pitching staff in the offseason.
  21. lukeduke1980
    I think several guys are still sort of question marks due to health. Turtle is next man up. Hopefully Gibby can be a serviceable long man and hopefully he is not needed.
  22. lukeduke1980
    The 96 Molly season was really good, and what might have been...
  23. lukeduke1980
    I seem to recall that Tyner DH'd quite a bit.
  24. lukeduke1980
    I think we have 1 starter and everyone else is a pitcher, even Berrios. That's pretty much how the Brewers pieced things together last year through the playoffs. It could work.
  25. lukeduke1980
    What can change to go on a September run? Shake something up
