Current Roster

[pachyderm]

I spoke Stripling into existence this morning; Correa this afternoon.

ahem, BRING ME CONFORTO

So they are both "gollums"...?

Oohlay.

I get the Space Laser next week too.

 

[LHG]

We still need 2 spots…

I think Santos will be the other casuality. I'd rather see Marte go, though.

 

[tzill]

And we'll need two more for Conforto and Rogers...

I think Marte is gone by then and probably one of Long, Diaz or Gonzalez.
Wynns will probably stay until another catcher is signed.

 

[tzill]

We will have a projected payroll of $202 million against the cap if the terms of Carlos Correa's new deal are accurate. That gives them $31 million in payroll space, meaning that they can still make another move or two. Bene and Rogers, please.

It's all coming true....


Marjorie Taylor Greene beginning to look like a real prophet...

Interesting reliever review from McC Chron:

Relievers who might interest the Giants

It’s not sexy, but somebody has to write this post.

www.mccoveychronicles.com

From the article:

"After looking over the list of major league free agents and using Statcast to filter by slider spin rate (2500-3000 RPM) by all relievers since 2015, I’ve come up with a list of relievers the Giants might be looking at right now (please note: this is by no means exhaustive):"​

​

Already Good​

Michael Fulmer (2.2 - age 30)​

Adam Ottavino (1.6 - age 37)​

Brad Boxberger (1.5 - age 35)​

Garrett Richards (1.3 - age 35)​

Matt Wisler (1.3 - age 30)​

​

Worth Coaching Up​

Josh James​

Michael Lorenzen​

Trevor May​

Jeff Hoffman​

​

Worth Considering​

Reyes Moronta​

Seth Lugo​

Taylor Rogers​

And we'll need two more for Conforto and Rogers...

Hard pass on both.

Make mine a Benintendi and Chafin.

I'm gobsmacked because i feel like I knew before you guys did... at least about the Mets part of it...

Is the apocalypse nigh... ?

That’s because we were all asleep when this broke. You are the only vampire on this board.

Added Conforto and Rogers

 

[LHG]

Assuming nothing unusual occurs on Conforto's physical and we actually add him to the 40 man roster, this is my list of possible DFA's (most to least likely):
Gonzalez
LaStella
Long
Marte (I'd put Marte first but he seems to be a pet of either Kapler and/or FZ)

 

[LHG]

Added Conforto and Rogers

Woah, I didn't see that until now. It will be cool to have the brothers on the same team. Hope it helps both of them get back to top form. But a 3 year deal?

And 11 aav for a bully arm is kinda steep for a non-closer (I know Rogers is a late-inning guy with closer experience, but still).

I am OK with the signing, but it is still expensive.
