Completely agreed. Watch Lynn put up a 4.3 ERA this year and the K rate is down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lance Lynn is a bonafide ace who can throw 120 pitches every start. He’s the exact type of horse you bring in when you want to win a World Series. my only regret is they didn’t make this trade a few months ago because we’d have beaten the A’s. You make too much sense. Some here won't like it 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not excited either. Trading Dunning Hardly closes the window in the next 5 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree 100% Dunning is a nice piece but it's time to win a World Series. Lynn is huge for this rotation. We kept our 'untouchables' and there is still plenty of offseason left to add to this roster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2Deep Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 God forbid we traded Dunning for an 1 or 2 type pitcher......we will now only contend for one year......GTFU. You have to trade something to get something........ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we want Lynn for more years? Typically I laugh at how negative this board is, but I'm not thrilled about this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSpalehoseCWS Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 I don't care how good he's been the last few years, Dunning + another arm is a massive overpay for 1 year of Lynn. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Look at Ray Ray Run Posted December 8, 2020 Share Posted December 8, 2020 Just now, Chicago White Sox said: Why’s that? Mainly because he's a rental and will be 34 going into next year. One plus is he's pitching for his last contract. I'm also just not a big fan of Lynn. He's a horse though and they needed one. Marquez, Darvish, Snell and Gray had years and youth. I absolutely hate trading a viable MLB asset for a one year rental. Next off season we're literally worse off with an owner who won't spend on pitching. Trying to plug a hole year after year this way just isn't a recipe for success. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
