our bullpen could be poo poo. There's a lot of money needed there.. AND if Cease/Kopech don't progress, we will without a doubt need a front line starter. PLUS Giolito could regress. Our pitching still has many questions.
Jorge Mateo traded for a bag of chips to the Padres. That's a fun move for them. Could be nothing, but I'd have taken a flier as a super sub-insane speed kinda guy. Especially with 30 man rosters this year.
I don't wanna start his clock for a 60 game season... PLUS, it isn't like he has much of a proven track record against college bats.. Why do we assume he's ready against the best?
Oh, he would totally come in at top 3 IF we did not have Abreu/Encarnacion. He sadly just won't get reps for us.
He will become an all-star, top 5 DH with someone else (I vote Orioles). Likely traded this year :(.
