I think you might be high.

I make the deal. Can't miss prospects often do. Elder is fungible and whoever else is in that pu pu platter isn't going to be as well-regarded as Smith-Shawver.

Well, what you have to do is get CC+ for $9.99/mo. Then it’s only $4.99 to add GDT. They’ll take it out EFT, you won’t even feel it.

I thought we were playing Murphy to save d’Arnaud for October.

So was I, but I’m self aware enough to know that my irrational exuberance has a tendency to overwhelm common sense. So I knew Riley was going to be a star, but I didn’t tell anyone.

I've been a couple of times. It's a little jewel. We're outside Anderson on the Lake Hartwell side, and the drive is nothing. I'd love it.

He'd be fine, but probably looking for 450 at bats and corresponding money that we can't give him. You know who's available who would work for $2-3M and gives me everything I'm looking for in a 200-250 AB 4th OF? Pillar.

I'd be good with this. You think they'd modify that faux Green Monster at Fluor Field? It's actually a nice facility.

I'm gonna guess MLB would do business with Amazon, but not as a white knight for Bally. I think they'd prefer a quick but painful death for Bally in the next 2 1/2 months. And I'd be OK with that. I'm kind of disgusted with the way they've dropped teams in tranches as they became less...

I think the current starter who stands the best chance of being an explosive, dynamic two pitch reliever is Ynoa.

Yeah, I included Ohtani as crippled and useless as a pitcher, but I didn't include him as a DH, which does make their lineup five deep, until his injuries impact his hitting and he gets to .253/.312/.438 with 20 HRs. But he's good for now. The other half of their lineup is either scrubby or...

They’re old. Betts 31 Freeman 34 Muncy 33 Hayward 34 CTaylor 33 Barnes 33 THernandez 31 MRojas 34 Pitching includes Yamamoto, Glasnow (emphasis on glass), no Ohtani in 24, Bobby Miller, Yarbrough, and TJ2 Buehler. For me, that’s a lot of risk, a pretty weak roster after you get through...

1. 211 strikeouts and a .305 OBP. 23.5M. 2. 0-0 0 IP (career). 30M X 12y 3. Projected 2024 stats: 0-0 0 IP. 70M X 10y 4. Career high 120 IP, 2023. 25M. +135M I suppose if you make enough risky deals, some of them have to pan out, just by the law of averages. But I don’t really like any of...

What was the point of Fletcher if we were going to sign a Guillorme? He’s going to be the most expensive AAA infielder in the US.

Yeah, but wasn't Coppolella shooting all the shots?

I'll bet Pillar would work for $2.5M if you gave him 2 years.

That's exactly what they're doing. It's just that they doled out the bad contract and pay most of it in exchange for the prospect.

Then you might save a few bucks for a deadline acquisition as necessary.

But we don't have much to do. Unless we need Bader money for a 200 AB 4th outfielder. I'd offer Pillar again. He's adequate. And presumably cheap.

Aha. There it is. Yeah, it'll give them room to get their RHH OF. Unless the Mets give every 75 OPS+ 4th OF $10M. Then we're in trouble.
