Well ok, now.
Smart, competent GMing is such a pleasure to watch work.
We are blessed with two in this city, the other two leave us wanting.

Cubs gave Tallion 4/68 - so a little less than Walker

Stil think you need that one vet off the bench around. The "Rick Mahorn" guy. Hard to say a guy who can show this team how to win cause look what they accomplished last year.
Evan Longoria, or Nelson Cruz. Yeah, there's not much left in them but you don't need much from them. Neither of them wil make or break you. If they are bad, you can cut them in July.

Interesting. Definitely will be interesting to see how those unfold side by side. Mildly surprised Taillon didn't get more, but they're really just about the same guy

I think they might give the kid Baker in AA a shot for a spot in the pen. Had a breakout year last year. Control was a little better and sitting high 90's and touching 100.

I cannot believe the Angels gave Syndergaard $21 million last winter.BelmontShore wrote: ↑Sat Dec 03, 2022 10:17 pm I'd certainly be amenable to bringing back Thor. I'd think another healthy offseason with a strong work out program could help him. Maybe he's looking for more but he'd be a decent insurance policy and possible trade bait at the deadline for something of need as Painter gets acclimated.
I can't see much of a market developing for him. Not even the Orioles/Pirates seem to be dumpster-diving for him at this point.
If he'd take $6M, I'd bring him back and go 6-man rotation to start the season (also provides injury insurance). ... Then move Thor to the bullpen in the second half, when Painter/McGarry could be ready to also bolster the staff.

You know I want a spot for Painter, willing to take a look at McGarry, just to get a feel for his readiness. Love the energy of kids. We saw that effect in 2022. We need those stories for 2023. Wish Morey/Rivers understood that.

Trea Turner will wear #7. Not sure where he'll hit, yet. Schwarber called him this morning to ask. Funny, I guess $300m gives you your choice if you want it but he seemed reluctant to do any dick swinging about it. Said he felt comfortable at 1, 2 or 3 and that they'd likely figure it out in ST.
