Agreed. I think he gets shopped if Seager OR Taylor are re-signed but his value seems hard to peg since he was a former top prospect who hasn't done much is 2-3 seasons.
This seems very expensive, and long for a reliever with no track record. Hopefully he made some legit changes that appear to have made a permanent difference.
The pen now consists of:
Hendricks, Bummer, Gravemen, Crochet, Ruiz, Burr and then Kopech in the playoffs. I really would like another bullpen arm added. I am also assuming here that Kimbrel is gone.
whoa. Is there a reason he was so good in 2021 vs being so bad the rest of his career? Any underlying changes? If not, this scares me as I'd rather get Tepera for 2/14 or something.
I was under the impression most people were fine with Madrigal ++ or Crochet ++ but not Vaughn/Kopech. Now would I have done Madrigal + Crochet? I don't remember. Hindsight makes it hard to remember.
I know that. But I would hate a straight up for him. If we could get two players it could be interesting but I don't even see a second player I'd want.
I would HATE Pablo Lopez for Vaughn. An interesting idea (idk how much i'd really think about it), would be a Luzardo + someone useful. However, looking, I don't see anyone on that roster that I'd want loll
