We have Acuna signed 4 more years after this year at 17M. If we tacked on 4 more years at 30M per year, then averaged it over the 8 years he’d be at 23.5M for the next 8 years. That would make him $1.5m more than Riley and Olson’ annual salary of $22m

I actually like Harris in the 9 spot, cause he doesn’t wanna take a walk and nobody wants to walk him.

So will the PTBNL from the Pirates and the White Sox will be a reliever decided on based how Stassi and Gonzalez figure in to their team’s plans in ST?

So Lopez is our new Chavez

I’m gonna watch this whole series. I think this will be a team we make a trade with before the deadline. We signed a few ex Rox this off-season.

Combined 19 1/3 IP 35K and 6 BB

Players unaccounted for Probably injured Tyler Tolve Austin Smith Ben Dum James Acuna Jordano Perez Probably in Florida league Cole Phillips Adam Meier Christian Jackson Noah Williams Justin Militello William Silva

Jordan Luplow and Eli White both have an option year remaining. Eli is making a case over Luplow

People will adapt. I like the faster pace. It keep a you in the game instead of wondering off in your mind while you wait 2 minutes for another pitch The looming threat of a steal is something I miss too.

There’s been talk recently of the crappy culture there that started with Lorenzo Cain.

Apparently he plays much better when starting as opposed to defensive replacement/pinch hitting. You could make the bull case, that he’d have a good rebound season. https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/valuable-ottoneu-bats-hidden-by-ph-numbers/

I think AA is interested in a salary dump trade with Ozuna or staying put and seeing if some combo of Hilliard/Luplow/Rosario/Ozuna could fill LF until July. Odds are we’ll be talking about trading for a LF then, but I get seeing what you have before adding more resources to the position.

Braves and Fried going to arbitration again. I just do not see an extension ever happening here, for those who want it.

Sam Hilliard may be a dark horse candidate this year. He showed up on a list of players who could benefit from the shift ban, so I looked a little closer. He had an awful year in the majors last year, but his BB rate went up for the 2nd consecutive season to 11.5%. His K rate went down from...

We’re gonna need an OF or two for AAA. I’d expect that to be our next signing Adam Engel is my guess

The contracts are already doled out. It’s all about how much AA and team can build the farm up now. I’d keep the “athletic pitcher with repeatable delivery” mindset and draft athletic C, SS, and CF.

AA is making sure we’re not the Cubs and trying to keep us on pace with the Dodgers. The key will be how well he builds the farm up which should see a large portion of our resources while we have a core in place.

I think he’s trying to see who he can get to clear waivers and assign to AAA. Jackson Stephens will probably be DFA’d soon Playing with the bottom of the 40 man roster isn’t usually his thing though.

Lastella DFA’d. Salary of 11.5M but a “tax salary” of only 6.25M. A swap based around Ozuna 16.25M “tax salary” would net a plus of $10M in tax salary relief Obviously there would need to be more moving parts

I believe the contract stays the same. We’re paying Iglesias 16M but carrying a 14.5M luxury tax salary
