I don’t mean find a Morton type player knowing whom he turned out to be. I mean find a Morton type player before he arrived and achieved...
We certainly need a lot of pitching depth, but Williams would take a key spot in our rotation. We’re likely only adding one arm and I’d like it to...
The stats above were a career high. He doesn’t have swing and miss stuff. In our ballpark, I think he’d be a low upside SP4 at best.
I think they would PREFER they got guys like Tucker or Verdugo or Andujar. However, the market for 2 years of J.T. doesn’t seem to be there. The...
I understand. Thanks for putting the thought into the proposal. I like the dialogue.
Yeah, I’m not interested in pitchers with multiple years of control. Use our farm for that. I’m interested in the Verlander’s and Bumgarner’s who...
Got it. Yeah, I don’t like Trevor Williams much either. He doesn’t produce much swing and miss stuff. Last year was his first decent year and I...

If we want to add a bat too, we’ll need $ off the books for 2019.
I hope you fellas have a wonderful day of celebration.
Yes, I’d do 10 mil a year off so that it doesn’t negatively impact us in the following years.
Which part or parts of the deal do you think the Marlins would reject? I think the value on White and Kemp—2 players that showed breakout skills...
I’d rather he become a Dodger than Realmuto. Personal sentiment, since Mr Twitter doesn’t testify on his behalf.
