flavum Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Let’s see how June goes. It’s tough, so if they go 14-10, they’re kinda in it. If they go 10-14, make some good moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two starters of that caliber would really propel the rebuild. If it were up to me, I'd non-tender Rodon and use the savings to add Bumgarner and Wheeler. Depending on what happens Monday, my offseason would be: Bumgarner Wheeler Ozuna And either Grandal or some pen arms, pending whether or not the Orioles outsmart themselves. They could probably get those 3 guys for what they would have spent on Machado. Edited June 1, 2019 by Jack Parkman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not ready to give up on this season yet. Injuries on Minnesota and acquire a few decent pitchers and things change in a heartbeat. This is May 31st.

The offseason will depend on what the Sox do with Abreu & Colome. If they trade them...we've given up on 2019. If instead they pickup someone like Keuchel and promote Cease they are making a run now. In any event...if things go the offseason route I like some of your ideas. I'm a big fan of McCann so not so much into the idea of Grandal and his cost. We already have a good pen and Gio when he is joined by Kopech, Cease & Lopez is certainly way better than today. My outside the organization additions would be pitching-pitching & more pitching.

I want more instant gratification since we've waited long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to add 2 arms in case Lopez doesn't pan out, so then Dunning or another pitcher can take his spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
