Tim Anderson isn't going to just get better at Shortstop by osmosis. Omar would actually have to be a good teacher, which is something we have absolutely no idea about.

There is zero chance the Dodgers waste a 26 man roster spot on that significant a reclamation project.

What is a Matt Foster?

It's a name people are familiar with, that's about it.

Being historically good at something <> being good at teaching something. It more often means the exact opposite. Fun Fact: Ron Washington had the same exact same career fielding percentage at shortstop as Tim Anderson

This was always silly.

So you admit that the only thing that was ever attractive about Vizquel was that he was not Rick Renteria?

People who have never seen Omar work, and have no idea what he's like as a manager are going to be upset. It is what it is.

That's....that's illegal

Both of you are way off

That's a name I'd consider moving one of those guys that aren't Robert, Eloy, Yoan, Gio for

That's a shame

If they end up striking out at the B+ tier, I fully expect them to do the find warm bodies thing again and end up <100 mil

Expect? No. I do think it's a legitimate possibility though.

We already have a significantly better player named Adam Engel

There are a bunch of rumors flying around that that Taubman douche bag lawyered up and is cooperating with the MLB and Luhnow stepped down last night.

That’s an AND not an OR

Signing Mookie Betts after not trading for him is the absolute best thing you can do to win a title in 21 or 22, trading for Mookie Betts and not signing is pretty close to the worst.

You can also kiss signing a TORish pitcher good bye if your paying Mookie 28 million dollars in 2020

I think the MUCH more likely scenario is trade for him, lose the division anyway, have him walk the next off season, and regret giving up whoever it is.

Mookie Betts has won a world series and is generally beloved in Boston and still wants absolutely zero to do with an early extension. Let's get the idea that having him here for a year will make him more amicable out of our head.

Betting the farm on this hunch would be really ill advised.

And also be prepared for him to say oh really? let me see if someone will top that.

Here's an idea, Trade for Haniger AND sign Corey Dickerson. Dickerson is your primary DH, and spells Eloy and Haniger when necessary or take over left if Eloy continues to be a disaster. Leaves plenty of cash to throw at pitching.

WAY to expensive and not nearly good enough of a fit.
