2022 MLB Spring Training & resumption of free agency

[FolesMVP09]

Lots of anger on the Reds message board - lol

[headclown]

Just think about the first round draft picks this city has had to endure, despite all the franchises having extremely high picks. Crazy to think how many high picks that did not work out.


Eagles

Marcus Smith 26
Agholor 20
Wentz 2
Barnett 14
Dillard 22
Reagor 21

Flyers

Not one star in the past 10 years of drafting, some decent players and some total busts
Nolan Patrick 2

Wentz was the best first round pick in Eagles history - directly led to a SB win

That is all that matters

Wentz the player - big letdown, but the pick led to the desired result

For sure, but I am talking about the end result with these picks...the here and now

Maybe they can right the wrong of the Moniak draft and get Senzel in as a change of scenery CF candidate.

Reds attaching a .950 OPS player in a Suarez salary dump big lol

Knebel-Hand-Familia is simultaneously weird as hell and the most Phillies bullpen ever.

It would be nice to see Dominguez reassert his 2018 form this year, but of course the Phillies are correct not to count on that.

The Reds have pretty much dismantled everything.

Love Senzel. Would be a great pickup for a team that has the +/- area of taking on the risk. I just don't see the Phillies being near that option.

To be fair, on paper, it's not as bad as you guys want to put it. Can it end up terrible? Yes. Can it end up being the best back-end bullpen? Yes. Clearly nobody knows for sure as relievers are ticking timebombs when you get them on the cheap. You grab three and you hope you hit a massive hit on one. Not rocket science.

Blue Jays are making a big push for star free agent OF/DH Kyle Schwarber, who’s very popular off an outstanding season in a market where teams suddenly need extra hitters. Many teams have been trying but Toronto is among the frontrunners.
