My comment was a roast on the Guardians. They had a couple of no hit, well regarded defense catchers so they ship out a decent pitching prospect and a high draft pick to get another one.
Sorry, brain fart
Remember about a month ago when everyone on this board was declaring him a full bust?
I've changed my thought on him: I believe he can be part of the solution and should not be dealt. Chapman, Adames, Devers, Ray, Ramos can all go though.
Depends on what else happens. I would want to sign him for longer than 3 years, and only if a role for Schmitt solidifies (giving him starters ABs, but at 4 positions works for me). I still want to deal him this year, though. Holding on to him this year make very little sense.
And if the Giants cannot move Adames and/or Chapman, they are liking to continue in starting roles. Re-signing Arraez makes things more difficult with getting Schmitt starter level playing time.
Just asked this in the GDT, do you think this is the real deal? Dude looks like Rod Carew right now lol
Everyone?
JHL is a giant cash cow and will never ever be dealt nor should he be
Damn you wanna go big game hunting? I think the price would be Eldridge and 2 other top level guys so, uh, yeah
This offseason seems like a strange time for ownership to suddenly change course in their spending.
Not sure about him yet. He goes through some extended cold streaks so it will be interesting to see if he can avoid another one this season.
I don’t really subscribe to the narrative that ownership has been super cheap, though. They took on Devers’ contract, for God’s sake. This past offseason was a very weak FA class. Skubal is arguably the #1 SP in the game today.
