Yeah he’ll go platoon somewhere with a team with a heavy left-handed hitting OF (Giants?).

Yeah a couple infielders short at the moment.

Need as many left-handed savages as possible.

There’s always reports that teams are maxed out years in advance? Those reports. Most teams usually know who they’re signing and for how much years prior.

"Wild Thing" Charlie Sheen, er I mean, Carlos Estevez signs with Angels. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2022/12/angels-to-sign-carlos-estevez.html

Either one would have had this fan base excited. But yeah Harper more since he is left-handed bat, RF has been a hole for a while, and Harper would have brought some national attention to the team.

Based on a 13 AB sample size.

Machado was also 26 and signed for 10 years. Either one would have been a fit ?

What can possibly go wrong!?

I'm really confused. You are acting like signing one free agent OF blocks Colas. I don't understand why you think this.

Yep

Complaining about overpaying for older relievers with like one good season and utility players is completely fine.

It’s all about how much the owner is willing to spend. If I was a fan of a team who’s owner didn’t mind paying the luxury tax every year, as a fan, why would I care?

Poster is referring to defensively.

People being happy their owner saved money that they are not going to spend is certainly weird.

And they'll probably continue outspending teams like the White Sox bringing in big names during that time.

Huh?

He's the youngest right? By a year I think.

I agree with this. I'd like TA as more of an offensive 2B but we all know he won't move off SS.

His numbers are better than I thought. And he's only missed 2 games in the past 3 years. Having players that can stay on the field is nice. Edit: he probably gets the least dollars/years out of the big 4 shortstop free agents.

True

lol like the comment right above yours

This. I really don’t want them to de away anyone or spend money for catching help. Just grab a backup type and/or a minor league signing.

Idk but Cards, Rays, Guardians, and Twins would be interested here I’m sure. Lot of teams need catching help.

You can sign one and play them along with Colas. More than 1 and then you’d have to either commit to Colas in AAA or make another move.
