I mean Diaz is a better option than Garcia at ss right, he was only hitting .260ish and isn't like Garcia is much better defensively
Heyman floating a prediction of Reyes, Perez, and Sierra for Donaldson. The stuff of nightmares. I'd do that package for someone like Stanton who's on the good side of 30 and has long term control, but doing it for Donaldson to still miss the playoffs this year and lose him after next season anyway is just dumb...which means we'll probably do it.
Welp 2 games under going into the break. Feels about right. Same record as the Cubs which seems impossible. DeJong is tearing it up right now. Will be interesting to see what we do trade wise.
Although seeing the return Oak got for their relievers, Id almost rather hold onto Rosenthal and take the comp pick. Def should see what we can get for Lynn though
I honestly dont know what a manager would do any differently if he was intentionally trying to blow games.
Traded Marco Gonzales for Tyler ONiel who was 3rd in the Seattle's farm and was ranked in the top 50 prospect lists pre season. He's struggled some and has slipped out of the top 100 @ midseason. Big time power bat. Seems like a nice return for Marco. Also - this quote is promising. Doesn't look like we're buyers thank goodness. No dumb trades for Donaldson or something like that
MLB Pipeline ranks O'Neil 4th in our system. Not bad for a guy ranked outside the top 20 in ours That's 6 guys in the top 100. Mo and Co have done a great job rebuilding the farm. Guys like Bader, Sierra, Hudson, Alcantara prob are too far out of the top 100 either.
Martinez is missing his spots the past few starts. Feels like every time he does something w his hair, he starts sucking
Feel like a few of them will be gone in the next few weeks. Heck, O'Neill might not even be here long. Grichuk has to go somewhere. We have to have given up on him by now and having someone like O'Neill coming into the system really makes Grichuk redundant.
Yeah. He and Grichuk seem like pretty much the same player, except that O'Neil actually walks at a decent clip
