We need to get rid of Ozuna, Rosario, and Odorizzi this off-season, even if we have to include some prospect capital.
If we bring Dansby back, we could always fill LF and DH with with players coming up like Grissom/Malloy or guys you can buy low on like Grossman
Don't really care about the cost so long as it doesn't impact money spent on a SS and filling in the rest of the spots, which I assume it doesn't. Not my money.
thank you weso1!
like others, dont love it or hate it. Im okay bringing him back but worry next year could be rough for him. Never bought the DeGrom talk, but this better not leave AA scraping to improve the offense/keep Dansby mostly.
Since I brought up getting rid of Ozuna. If we have to take back a contract I think we should call Miami about a Soler trade.
Morton for $8M? Maybe. Morton for $20M? Why must AA always spend big on one "seasoned veteran", ala Keuchel, Hamels, Morton Morton Morton? Enough already
this signing is a gamble for sure, but I think he will be much better next year. As long as he doesn't break a leg in the WS like last year that is.

Agree 100%.
Morton isn't putting in the work for 10 million. Rich people problems literally, but that's the price for Morton.
I think we could have gotten similar results for less. But we do have a YOUNG staff. So I get the appeal of having a vet. Especially a vet who has had long term success through taking care of himself and listening to analytics.
I think in AA's ideal world we'd be on a 6 man rotation w/ an occasional 7th man. He loves depth and rested starters.
