Re: MLB 2021 Offseason

There's buzz Seager will sign Monday, but no one even knows what team! The only team with any buzz around him is ... Texas, where there is no personal income tax

Re: MLB 2021 Offseason

1. I'm surprised that's all it took
2. Good move for Jays, but I think I'd rather have Ray, who proved he can handle the AL East

Re: Philadelphia Phillies 2021 Offseason

1. Mets looking to land either Scherzer (Who they are offering $40M+ per year) or, as their "backup," Gausman, after that bundle of bats they added. They are ultimately the team we have to pass for #2 in the division and the shot at a wild card 2. Some disparaging words about Texas, but th...

Re: Philadelphia Phillies 2021 Offseason

At bare minimum, with no LF, CF or DH, the Phillies should get Cutch back on board right now, for whatever his market value is. Give him 2/32. I don't care.

Re: Philadelphia Phillies 2021 Offseason

TOP CF targets left for Phillies -- Cedric Mullins (Would cost 2 of their top 4 prospects0 -- Kevin Kiermaier (great glove, but he's a #9 hitter) -- Kris Bryant. I starting to think they land him, because I think the Phillies will have money burning a hole in their pocket as more guys come off the b...

Re: Philadelphia Phillies 2021 Offseason

I think that there plans are just to shop at the bargain basement post Xmas (contract negotiation) sales They won't pay the tax, so a few mediocre moves are coming You might be 100% right, but the Phillies should know that plan will be followed by an early October call from Boras to the Phillies, r...

Re: Eagles' 2021 GDT #12: 11/28/21 Eagles(5-6) @ Giants(3-6) - 1pm

I think in retrospect if the Eagles had known they'd be in contention this year (there was no reason to think they would), they wouldn't have traded Ertz. Such a useful option in tight spots.

Re: Philadelphia Phillies 2021 Offseason

Yeah, to be clear, my "What I think they'll do..." is in no way an endorsement or wish. I agree that plan sucks ass, whether it's trading for Kimbrel, Hader or whoever.
