  1. Keith back to 3B makes the most sense. No need to sign stupid Bregman
  2. If he wants anything even sniffing that type of deal then just let him F off and let’s stick with a Jung/Vierling platoon.
  3. Or maybe Tork and Baez could just play to their potential and we wouldn’t have to sign anyone
  4. We were one of the teams linked to him at one point, but who knows beyond that
  5. Bummed we couldn’t get Buehler. Really want to see us go after Flaherty. A Skubal-Flaherty-Cobb-Jobe-Mize/Montero rotation could really have us as the division favorite even if we still have some offensive deficiencies
  6. Well he then got injured for the whole second half of the year
  7. Naylor, Gimenez, Boyd, Morgan and Sandlin all moved and all they’ve really brought in is Horowitz and Carlos Santana.
  8. Guardindians are blowing it up a bit
  9. ESPN.com has no mention of this still….
  10. Wow. RIP. Rickey was so much fun to watch.
  11. Arenado reportedly blocked a trade to Houston. I wonder if that gets Houston pushed more in the direction of re-signing Bregman. I don’t know if they’d want to give up what it’d take to get Bohm. Whatever helps keep Bregman away from Detroit is a positive in my book.
  12. I see no alternative to a 6 year Bregman deal becoming anything besides another payroll boat anchor.
  13. I’m hoping for Kim, Flaherty and Buehler. Which means we will get Bregman and Heaney….
  14. Well… 500 Akil Baddoos = 1 Juan Soto
  15. He does a couple of things well enough to have some value—namely baserunning. He’s also had some decent numbers at AAA the last few seasons and is only 26 and bats left handed. Put him in a park with a short RF to platoon or on a winning team to pinch run for a slow 1B/C/DH late in games. I can see certain teams being able to see value in him for a very cheap price. Even if he’s just picked up and stashed in AAA, he’s not a bad emergency depth piece to have.
  16. Surprisingly, Baddoo cleared waivers.
  17. Seems like nobody actually wants Bregman but some team will settle.
  18. Yeah but sometimes that calls comes from the owner
  19. I just don’t want to see us have the mindset that we have plenty of payroll flexibility now to hand out some big contracts only to then turn around and put that player in the lineup every day even if they severely underperform because we are paying them a lot. If we are going to go for some home run signings then we have to be willing to accept that sometimes they’ll just be pop ups and move forward.
  20. Looking at Bergman’s hit chart, I don’t think it’s wild to say that he’d be a 15-18 HR guy at best if he played half his games in Comerica and he’s gonna hit less doubles because his fly balls to left aren’t gonna bounce off a short wall. Is that what’s gonna get us to the next level for 6 years and $150-200 million? Probably 5-10 more XBH than Vierling with worse base running? If you wanted to put Bregman at 1B and keep Tork in Toledo or trade him for some magic beans, I feel like that would be the more impactful move….but even then there are other 1B options that are better to go after and probably cheaper. Extend Riley and Skubal instead.
  21. I feel like Bergman’s offensive numbers would crater in Comerica vs playing in that Mickey Mouse ballpark he’s been in. I have more faith in Vierling as a regular 3B
  22. The White Sox are gonna lose 140 games next year
  23. All this talk of Pudge and Vina…. what about my man Rondell White?
  24. I’d rather they pay Fetter than Bregman
