CWSpalehoseCWS Posted June 11, 2018 Share Posted June 11, 2018 It's a good problem to have. Personally, long term, I think Palka beats out Davidson in terms of future value since he is LH and a little younger. Sucks for Delmonico, because Palka has way more pop. I wonder if he could serve as a 1B/OF/DH type of player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can get that collection of arms to have a 2.08 ERA over a two week period, he truly is the best. I am skeptical however that it can continue at all. Soria has had something like 4 good outings in a row and he's incapable of any more than that for sure. The rest of those guys are just bodies. Coop has again proven his value. He should have a lifetime contract. He also should be our next manager IMO. He's grumpy and that would be entertaining as well. All that media access would drive him truly insane.

Because Greg like to argue topics while ignoring/without understanding counter arguments. Example: "we should listen to offers for Abreu and only trade him for a great haul. Only another year of control, wrong side of 30, and keep adding to a great system. Great numbers. We should get some key pieces easily." Legit baseball reasons. Greg however: "I can't believe all of you want to trade Abreu. His numbers are great. I don't understand why everyone here hates him. My gawd." Completely ignoring key points and thinking everyone hates Abreu. This is every Greg argument.

AND it would totally be possible if this cheapskate ownership group would just STOP BEING SO CHEAP and spend $100 million or so every offseason signing the right free agents, clairvoyantly picking which free agents are "the right free agents", of course, since most of free agency is a crapshoot statistically speaking.

So you are saying they struggle to pick the right free agents. But you trust them to pick the right players in the draft. Hmmm. You think free agency is a crapshoot; what about the draft? So they are incompetent picking free agents but they'll be better at the draft?? (Burger, Madrigal? Rodon? Hmmm). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If each is a game of roulette, the draft is the penny bet table while free agency is the high roller table, except that the payout for winning at each table is similar.
