Charlie Culberson. Folty and Viz all avoided arbitration this morning.

Folty is still a bargain if he replicates last season's numbers.

Viz was pretty good when healthy last year, but I'd like for us to get a real closer and have Viz be the set up man.

Charlie is the best backup plan in baseball.

Also avoided arbitration with Adam Duvall.

Now they could have sent him walking, and I would have been far happier.

I'd rather play Lane Adams in left every day than Adam Duvall. At least at that point, we'll have the fastest outfield in baseball.

I am still hoping for Peralta. Would like to see a trade for MadBum if it isn't too costly.

Miami's beat writer has been keeping the Realmuto/Braves rumors afloat.

That's not an upgrade over Murphy IMO. Them getting Corbin is more worrisome for me. He's owned us.

Plus he kinda dropped off in production big time last season. OPS+ well below league average. I'm sure he'll bounce back some, but I doubt he's ever gonna be a threat to lead the league in homers again.

If that happens, I'll be pissed. Like I said earlier, if we're going bargain bin for the third outfielder, I'd rather go with Lane Adams.

We need to sign Pollack. With us having the 9th pick, we'd be losing our second pick(like the 64th pick in the draft), not our first round pick since he rejected a qualifying offer, but those are top 10 pick protected.

Donaldson and McCann are a bit underwhelming. We've still got time, but we'd better not be done making moves.

I did. I nearly made a thread about it in the PFs denouncing every bad thing I ever said about Google, but decided against it.

Pretty cool.

Love me some Earl Scruggs.


Maybe not a new thread, but perhaps in the existing "Post the best thing you saw on the internet today" thread?

Go for it if you want....or I will.

I'll let you have it. I'm trying to spend less time in the PFs, which is part of the reason I decided to not make the thread.

Apparently we are getting New Uniforms that will be revealed Saturday at ChopFest.

Rumor on reddit is that it will be completely new Road Grays.
