  1. I think if Vaughn had an extra year of control, him being the centerpiece for Soto would be much more appealing to the Nat’s. Instead we wasted a year of control to have him play in like three games over the first two weeks of last season.
  2. I’m not challenging it, but just curious how small of a sample we’re talking about first round talents who happen to be that tall.
  3. How many guys his height have been drafted in the first round over the past 10 years or so?
  4. The Athletic had an article outlining potential trade packages and threw out Eloy, Vaughn, Montgomery, Colas, & Vera for the Sox. They then said that wouldn’t be enough and a package would need to start with Cease & Robert. I think we can safely close this thread.
  5. That’s 31st overall value, which seems in the realm of possible. Not banking on it, but just saying there is a path.
  6. Punt our 3rd & 4th round picks and you should be able to give Toman $2.4M.
  7. He’s clearly signing bro. Him being local probably helps a ton.
  8. Going to be interesting if Prielipp, Gilbert, & Toman are all there. I still think they go with Gilbert though.
  9. Seriously? How much time between picks in the 1st?
  10. Man this would have been a lot more fun with that compensation pick. Oh well, at least we’ll see two picks tonight.
  11. Best path forward is hoping Eloy & Vaughn can cover LF & DH. At this point, Pollock should be additional depth in the event Eloy can’t stay healthy. And then go out and a get a RF who hits LH and can be at least average defensively.
  12. I honestly think a Pollock for Gallo swap could have worked, but AJ has been so bad as of late that his player option becomes a legit risk of being accepted. After that, I really struggle who might make sense. Naquin is probably the best cheap rental option for RF, but’s not going to be a game changer for us.
  13. He’s not vaccinated? If so, even more reason to go in a different direction.
  14. It’s pricey when you have multiple kids in your system who can give you similar production for $600k and it’s dumb when he’ll be 36 years old and likely coming off a low 1 win season. But I know how you love your veteran UT guys Rick!
  15. He’s 35 years old, is projected for 1.3 fWAR this year, and put up a total of 1.7 wins from 2018 to 2021. Very possible he falls off a cliff next year and we don’t need another pricey UT guy when we’re stuck with Leury for the foreseeable future.
  16. That’s the problem…the options aren’t great for RF or 2B. Hahn will need to get creative and that’s not really his strength.
