We have 218 and in last place, Milwaukee has 207 and leading the NL Central, TB has 201 and 2nd in AL East... Mets on the other end of the spectrum with 120 and in 1st in NL East, Asterisks have 140 and only 1/2 game ahead of the Rangers
Several posters are not watching games b/c of issues. Not sure what issues keep you from seeing games. You guys need to get the problem resolved. We need all our posters. We have lost to many already.
Do you miss ginger and Romeo?
I have pretty much forgotten about Ginger...........But anyone who misses Romeo needs to have another lobotomy. The first one didn't take!
Not much.
I have frontier and they dropped FSSW, now Bally last year.
Any start that increases his trade value is not really a waste.
Depends on what you get for him, more bodies in the 2024-25 time frame is going to make the farm system get real crowded real quick and not enough places for them to play and progress. If you don't start getting prospects that are projected to get here in 2022 the rebuild will continue into the 2030s. Because what arrives isn't going to dazzle overnight it usually takes a couple years for them to start producing consistently. And if this rebuild keeps going on and on a large portion of the fan base will have said sayonara by then...
That's going to be a heck of an expensive teacher...
He is a feee agent after next year. That is when you consider signing him or not. In the mean time, whether it be 3 months from now, 7 months from now or 15 months from now, he could be a very valuable trade piece. He could be traded and then signed when he is a feee agent in 18 months.Depends on what you get for him, more bodies in the 2024-25 time frame is going to make the farm system get real crowded real quick and not enough places for them to play and progress.

I'm not saying keep him and sign him to a stupid contract but you do need to have some veterans for the youngsters to learn from. If this current performance isn't a fluke then he probably has 3 years or so left in him, just long enough to teach but not be in the way. BTA if you think what we currently have on the roster aren't worth teaching then by all means get rid of him and them too, burn it all to the ground.
You keep trading them off for 6 year or more HS projects you might never get to where you want to be World Champions...
And then there are rumors floating around of the team going after Kershaw this off season, at 30 what million per year...
The rebuild will take at least until 2023 one way or another. If we draft a HS player with our first pick then that will pretty much expose the team's timeframe as being 3 to 4 years away. We shall see what happens. The pandemic hasn't helped and neither have the Jung and Huff injuries.
I'm very well aware of this and aware he could walk away without the team getting anything out of him, I also realize he could be a reasonably priced teacher too...
I'm going by past history most are still in A ball now with a few in AA, most seem to disappear before they get close. Solak is only now getting a real shot Dunning we have no clue what we have with him yet, so far so good but this is a small sample. Willie has been a square peg in a round hole since day one, Most of this time here is they don't really trust him to be out playing defense somewhere, you don't trade for a "DH Only" body unless he produces like Big Papi...
I understand that but when you have too many in the same time frame as they have you don't really get the chance to see what you really have because some are being held back...
