Do any of the insiders know if they just didn’t read the market correctly or this was their plan all along. A couple times in late November they did say that they misread something about the market but were never clear about what. They have continued to insist that there is a market for Kimbrel the whole time, despite the lack of movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miley is better than Minor and they let him go for free to save a few $. Now they trade for a lesser pitcher making the same $. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thxfrthmmrs Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 3 minutes ago, chw42 said: Eh, I wouldn't say Machado has been worth every penny, but Harper has. The thing with these mega deals is that the players need to produce a lot at the start so they can off-set the losses towards the end of the deal. If Machado isn't putting up 5-6 WAR every year for you until he's 30-31, it's hard to recoup a lot of that value in the later parts of the deal. So far Machado's had 2 really great months, one decent season, and one subpar season. Yes, absolutely with these deals. He's worth 16.2 bWAR if you prorate 2020. He's still 29 though, if he puts up 4 war on average the next 3 years, and 2 WARs every year after, the contract would still have surplus value. And he should eclipse those numbers.

I would pump the brakes a bit until all possible targets are gone. The “dream” scenario of trading Kimbrel for prospects, including them in a deal with Sheets for Manaea and then signing Conforto still exists. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They havent lost out on anything realistic. Conforto is still there. I'd still bet Kimbrel gets traded and there will be another SP. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnin' two Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 (edited) Honestly I'd rather have Manaea than Montas. He'd be cheaper, and he really fits what the team needs. And he isn't an icky cheater pants, which is nice. It would suck to trade for Montas then have him get busted again. Add Manaea and Conforto, and we are set! Too bad Conforto really feels like a dream. Edited March 16, 2022 by turnin' two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
