Lololo..conventional wisdom..says that.
Is true ..
But then..so does chapman. For the price.

I think that was my whole point..

My value in both guys is the same..
For now.

With Chapman in decline..

Urias. May have some left .to show.
And he can 2b.

What he's looking for is probably several mil off of what the mariners want to spend. If I had my choice I'd take Chap over Urias.

Both guys aren't the same. Urias has showed nothing where as Chapman can hit the occasional HR and hover around .250 avg.

 

[ulmax]

I don't think it would be much of an upgrade.
To add chapman...he 240.
Last year..
But for years before was..

2020..ave.232...hrs 10
2021 ...ave.210.hrs..27
2022....ave..229...hrs27
2023....ave. 240..with17.hrs

Isn't this why mariners have.raley..
He hits about the same..
Or.
Am I in the twilight zone..
Lolololo.
I have been accused of it before ..
Lol9looloo.
The point is why the money ..just keep urias.
They already have him

 

[ulmax]

I'm not putting..urias baseball.card.in the bicycle..spokes till.at.

There are a few negatives with Chapman.

A. It nullifies the Geno trade, Geno would’ve been cheaper, slightly less offensive production but he was a clubhouse leader and was the best clutch hitter they had.

B. It kind of screws up the roster built for today and the future. If all goes to plan, Polanco is the 3B next year with Young or Ford at 2B. I guess you could argue that makes them tradable but if Jerry didn’t trade Ford this offseason I’m not sure he is going to trade him. And I personally think it would be a massive mistake to trade Young. I think they need a full minor league year of Emerson before they should even answer a phone call on Young.

I won’t be opposed to signing Chapman but if they can get extra money from the front office they should spend it on Snell IMO. I generally hate the idea of a 6 man rotation but there is a very good case to have a 6th guy with Woo’s injury history and both he and Miller throwing the most innings….plus it allows for them to trade Hancock for the eventual Arozarena trade I think they will end up making.

I mostly put that part cause outside of Julio, I don’t think anyone should feel good about the COF’s. Raley and Moore as a platoon isn’t good and neither is Canzone and Haniger. IMO Moore should only be starting maybe 1 or 2 days a week to spell JP and Polanco. He is best used as a guy who comes basically every tight game in the 6th or 7th inning because this is going to be a very slow team, especially if Canzone makes the roster over Trammell. Having to carry Zavala over a Haggerty or Marlowe IMO puts them in a bind cause I would assume they are going to have an order with only Raley being able to move from 4th down.

If owners don't offer a contract..
It will show how bad at business they really are..

Like oaklands bad owners.

I'm disagreed.on Chapman..
I think that is obvious..

Urias has .upside..
Chapman .not really..

Urias.is the guy who will.
Hit around 250..
And Give better defense than.
Suarez..

 

[ulmax]

Moore should be traded
Or hired as a coach.

End it..he can't hit..

 

[ulmax]

[ulmax]

Moore..haggerty..
And what's.next...
The problem is this .

Ya need a ss/ LF...Moore is no longer..that guy..
Haggerty.is.
With speed..

The mariners can improve.
From Moore and haggerty.
But.
Ya have to start..with moore

The other problem..
Back up catcher...
Zavala.is not the answer.
.getting Murphy.
With hunt would have been.better...

 

[ulmax]

Depth chart ..
If.
Dh garver.
Haniger
Raliegh .
Then an other good catcher is where to improve first

Haggerty may cut it.
And give time to..replace..
Him....
in a good..way .

But Moore is .

A coach..it's hard but probly.
True .

 

[ulmax]

Biggest Mariners.need .backup catcher..


If giants don't sign Snell..

Look at the. thumb gee your dumb .

 

[ulmax]

San Diego .needs belinger.
Worse than any team....

They only have 2 outfields
On the 40 man.

There is still .kepler as well

 

[ulmax]

If Moore can catch .
I'm game..
