    Probably an elite BP.

    Folty is the classic "stuff #4" everyone keeps waiting on to "figure it out". He won't be going to the BP.

    Newk likely heads to the BP as soon as Allard, Soroka or Wright replace him in 2018.

    There's no way we'll be able to keep Suzuki next year.

    Minter and lindgren (the slider, I'm telling you) are gonna be lethal

    Suzuki is an elite sub-400' HR hitter.

    We have money to spend and if you are going with Camargo at third and the young guys in the rotation you might as well see if you can ink a 2 year deal.

    I hope we don't overpay. I doubt seriously he produces an encore of this level

    I can't wait to mock the team that gives him big money only to watch his HR rate regress to career levels.

    230 players have hit 10+ HRs this season.

    Suzuki ranks #216 in average distance and #218 in average exit velocity.

    He is #20 in luck according to xwOBA on those batted balls (Ender is #2).

    I think it's safe to assume he won't come anywhere close to replicating this season.
