It's happening? Let's get Cease, Scott, and Profar

Looks like there’s also a video somewhere of him throwing a flat ground in Toronto. https://x.com/bnicholsonsmith/status/1878845935570297311?s=46&t=t7xpFDjlFYkGV6nUElb0dA

Less than 48 hours and we should know.

So AA tried to get Hoffman and Scott? Man talk about a loaded bullpen.

I think he wanted Hoffman as a starter ala like Lopez.

Does Sasaki HAVE to sign by the 15th?

Unfortunately he can drag it out to the 23rd.

That's not what he said.

And the White Sox just signed another guy that was originally going to the Dodgers.

Naw but all 3 of those teams have made their pitch and he knows where he wants to go by now. Money isn't an issue bc of the limitations.

When he goes to SD and AA gets Cease, Bichette, Scott and Profar by the weekend we will be happy.

That would work

 

[Hudson2]

The Dodgers must be pretty confident in getting him if they are losing some international guys

Sasaki would only cost 2.5M, or something like that? How much of their pool would he cost?

 

[Hudson2]

I think the Dodgers have like 5.1 or something like that.

Hoping it's them or Toronto. But we know how this story ends... Although Dodgers have so many SP's, so i guess they'll just do the good ole 9 man rotation, kidding a little.

 

[Hudson2]

I don't think the Jays have a chance. I'm afraid it's gonna be the Dodgers but I'm still hoping for SD.

It's more that players with handshake agreements with those teams don't want to get left in the cold

 

[bravesfanMatt]

I will be shocked if he doesn’t sign with the dodger$.

You mean cement themselves as the best team in baseball overnight?

Yeah, I think we’d all be fine with that.

 

[bravesnumberone]

29 days until pitchers and catchers report. Today would be a good day for AA to make a real major league addition to this team. (Yes, aware of the 15th)
