38-14 Dallas wins -
Would not shock me if he goes full clemens. Basically year by year and just calls his shots
-
I like to aim lower. Their third baseman and backup catcher seem OK. Maybe we could add them. Anyone know who they are. Did we give them away for nothing?
-
They're payroll is gonna blow past this year with just filling the roster out. Not sure they are gonna surpass 200 million.
-
i expected them to be better and more competitive. After 1-4 and a blowout shutout in New England are either of those true?
-
OK so you asked a question and didn't care what people said cause you had your mind made up. that's fun.
-
Hey its not just him. DeSclafrini got $12 million from the Giants and promptly went back to a 6 era. Crap
-
Three times in 4 weeks and one more to go. Solid NFL

OK we're talking two langauges here. Cause you're making zero sense 1. You asked why people are talking about correa and not the other guys. 2. I pointed out the other shortstops that are all free agents are big pocket teams and have all said they want their guys to stay. 3. You asked yet the Tigers are going to outbid for Correra. I guess ingorning my point about the other shortstops you asked why nobody is talking about. Then didn't talk about them. 4. I pointed out your confusing and all over the place. Again pointing out the big pockets, homefield adavantage and other things that is why people don't talk about Turner and Swanson. I also pointed out the Yankees have to resign judge and the cubs are rebuilding. Also noting that none of those teams bid big on Correra last year. 5. You then talk about a bidding war for Correra. Again ignoring my point in 4 and then talk about only Swanson staying without any proof or reasoning again ignoring point 2. You want to get yourself straight about what you want to talk about and we'll be happy to discuss? Is it the other guys, is Corerra, is it why there will be a bidding war for Corerra is it why the Tigers will be able to outbid the dodgers both in money and wins to land Turner?

I disagree. When we marginal pitchers get 8 to 10 like Pelfry, all Eduardo has to do is be semi OK this year and he can get the 48, not 60, he'd be forgoing by opting out. In a an offseason that looks like a lot of pitching movement he'd be a 31 year old coming over a decent year and a left. He'd could easily get a decent deal. If he opts in he gets the 48 but wouldn't be a free agent until 35. Big difference.
-
I don't understand your comment. You think the Cubs are gonna spend or the Yankees are gonna pass on Judge and go over the luxury tax when they haven't? Also couldn't have those teams bid on Correra last year and nobody did? You asked why is nobody considering the others. It's simple they are deep pocket teams that want to keep em. Why waste time going after them when there is about a 1 percent chance they change teams? Meanwhile, Correra has a potential to leave Minnesota and you at least have a chance at him.
-
Cause we're not gonna outbid the red Sox, dodgers and braves who all want to keep their own guys
-
So then the point of your comment was? That humans have similar heights and weight. Thanks for the amazing insight.
-
I don't trust Ohio State QBs ause of the past But take an alabama guy. Mac Jones, Tua, Jalen Hurts, mcCarron, McElroy, Croyle are who Saban has had drafted. Not like that group is lighting it up either.
-
lol no he didn't. Fernando vina and Troy Percival don't count. I and Saber were both referring to the mega signings and you know that.
-
The problem, at least I have, with Candy is that he's shown about one very good half year and that's it. Now we're paying him an estimated $7 million. It's unlikely he's gonna meet that half year, so is the money better spent elsewhere and letting someone else see if they can breakout. It's unlikely we'll be in the playoffs next year so might as well let a FA/young guy get those ABs instead of Candy and then jsut let him leave the next year. Take the money and spend it elsewhere.
-
Yeah team usually keep guys around or they aren't on the proverbial "hot seat" with a .264 winning percentage! (that's assuming he gets to what you posted earlier of a 6-to-8 win season). I mean par for you, but if you don't think if they finish 5-12 he would be on the hot seat, you're nuts and just looking at it blindly. He got a long contract sure, but a .264 is god awful. It's a league where you are supposed to win on occasion. MCS didn't say he would be fired, just that the seat would be warm. Which of course it would be for any coach who goes 9-25 in two years.
-
This is the correct answer. It was basically one of those pre-season "worst case scenario" type of seasons. Everything went wrong and it cost a lot of people jobs.
-
They all do it. What are you talking about? Nobody signs a giant FA when they know they are gonna lose 100.

Sorry i missed the first part And you're right a bunch of last place teams all had great rosters. That's why they are in last. Also the eagles were apprently in the superbowl but also in last in 2020. Jags Jets Falcons all had outstanding rosters in 2020. Just great. They were the envy of the league in 2020. Now, let's talk about the fact you ignroed the Jags coaching system from last year. The fact you ignroed the Giants changed everybody. That the jets hired a coach when we did. The eagles changed thier QB instead of running with the marignal guy they used to have. They have all show progress this year and we are 1-4 with a roster still desperate for even marginal talent. You talk about the picks we haven't gotten from the stafford trade. But, what about the ones we did. The trade was supposed to jump start the rebuild with both extra picks and cap space. We havne't seen the fruits of any of that. In fact, the main pick we have used from Stafford trade so far hasn't even played. You can just excuse everything given where the roster was in 2020. The rest of us know where the roster was too. We knew it wasn't gonna be a one year turnaround. But, also we can go why the hell did every other team who was awful when we started this rebuild find a way to get better meanwhile we are heading for a top 3 pick yet again? THen again, we also knew Stafford and Goff wasn't the same so we probably started with a leg up too. Much like those other 7 garbage teams from 2020 apparently -

A) Thats not true. Unless we don't think the best QBs in Falcons history count (or are you just saying that were were teh only ones to trade it after 2020? Cause then its oddly esoteric and not sure what the hell point you're trying to make.) B) Why should that matter? They all had garbage rosters. The jags went thought one of the worst coach hires of all time and still aren't as trash as we currently are. Trading the QB was supposed to kick start it with extra picks. But it didn't. INstead of holding them accountable for it. You just excuse it as well they had to do a complete rebuild. It's the NFL not MLB. Those 7 other teams did it in 16 months. Sure I didn't need the Lions to be a super bowl competitor this year. But, its year 2 now. The other 7 garbage teams from when we started have all turned it around somewhat or at least shown promise. We are still garbage. We scored some points against blah teams and are the only one not out of the cellar currently.
