HoF [REDACTED] v2.0: FUCK...We suck again!

$ getting interviewed on MLB network rn

 

what do they know?

 

Strider on now. Apparently David Justice is announcing the NL ROY here in a few

 

Also, DOB is out here on Twitter absolutely poo pooing all over signing any of the big SS this year

 

Officially licensed. It says it right there folks.

 

almost guarantees we are gonna sign one of the big name SS

 

$$$$&$$$

Lol Michael Harris the 3rd

 

Money Mike wins ROY

 

both were so deserving. really need two separate awards for pitchers and catchers but love it for money

 

Starting to see way too much of this kind of shit

 

there is no way we go into the season with lando starting at shortstop. they’ve already said they’re running a top 5 payroll and these so called “reporters” are saying we’re gonna cheap out of a title window

fake af news

 

Arcia is not the way to go.

 

I don’t think “cheap out” is a fair way to categorize it necessarily. 100% agree that Arcia/Grissom should not be the everyday for the sake of saving some money, but I think the reasoning of not wanting to sign a $30M+ AAV shortstop long-term to save flexibility for guys like Wright, Contreras, and the resigns of Ronnie and Oz are valid. We can and should run a top-5 payroll, but they won’t give AA a blank check.

So much will depend on just what Dansby is willing to sign for.

 

ronnie is under contract for another what 6 or 7 years? re-signing him shouldn’t be a remote consideration for the budget

 

6; contract runs through ‘28 if both options are exercised, and that’s my bad, because I thought it was through ‘27.

If the big 3 SS guys are willing to do 5-6 year deals like Story and Biaz instead of the monster 10-12 ones, we’ve got a stew going.

 

Aren’t most if not all of the recent extensions mostly back loaded? If so, now would be the time to go get a big FA, either at SS, LF/DH, or SP. Also, throwing an extra $20M at Charlie while trying to stay under the CBT limit is fucking bananas

 

hard to the point that it’s impossible to see that deal and believe the chatter that we aren’t gonna spend big

 

Yes, our deals pay the players more in the later years. The problem is the CBT is based on AAV of contracts. We can’t even sign Dansby without reaching the first level. It’s a huge mess if we really aren’t willing to pay the CBT like DOB is saying.

 

It’s based on AAV

 

Guys

Stop falling for contract posturing as news

 

Love the disbelief by the color guy

 

End of an era. Maybe RIP Gilly

 

Damn

 

He lasted on the roster longer than he should have tbh

 

5th OF’er spot is open? Bring him home, AA.

 

Sign him to a nice minor league deal

 

no idea what his actual spray chart looks like and its pure nostalgia but with the shift gone, seems like a no brainer

 

Also.. I think he's a really good dude and professional as fuck. That stuff matters.

 

really seems like a no brainer. one of my favorite players would love to see him back in atlanta

 

Was hoping maybe had some decent platoon splits, but unfortunately those were kinda awful

 

pretty good in 2020 but the last two years have been rough

 

Some moves are starting to happen. Don’t suspect any of the big SS to sign any time soon, though. Guess we’ll see

 

Joc is off the table fwiw. Took the QO

 

Good for him taking 20mm

 

Jason Heyward used words to win the 2016 World Series. Incredibly hard to do. Very difficult to quantify.

 

Brutal. Didn’t think they’d drop JS

 

LETS FUCKING GO

 

DAMMIT GUS

 

Thought Jackson Stephens was pretty decent.

 

that's weird

 

Stephens was the better pitcher last year. Santana just have options.

 

FIRE AA

 

Any time you can get your hands on a Dennis, you have to do it.

 

let's schedule a teams meeting first thing tomorrow morning to figure out a D.E.N.N.I.S. system for our new pitcher

 

Hopefully this is true. Still brutal though

 

I think this is the difference. Jackson isn’t good enough to not have options.
