Rangers sign Tyler Mahle to a 2 year deal.

 

[Duane1952]

I’m not to fond of singing pitchers coming off injury.

 

[saddles]

I would have rather signed Woodruff, but Mahle could be of help come June.

Nor I.

I don't mind it in this case, because I don't feel like we need another starting pitcher to begin the season anyway.

In 2022 the Reds traded Mahle to the Twins for 3 top 30 prospects.

Now, let's sign Hader and a long reliever/spot starter and be done.

At what cost?

Works for me.

 

[saddles]

At what cost?

Mahle will earn $5.5 million in 2024, $16.5 million in 2025.

Nice buy low signing. The prospect of having him and DeGrom as second half additions to the rotation is really nice.
FYI I'd prefer Hicks and Moore over Hader at this point, but obviously I'd be happy either way.

I would like for them to sign Hader and trade for the Brewers Williams.

Dodgers going all in.

 

[armadillooutlaw]

Great pitcher, but always seems to have some major injury. Have a feeling it comes back to bite the Dodgers.

 

[Uncle Siggy]

I would have rather signed Woodruff, but Mahle could be of help come June.

Signing Woodruff would still be a good idea looking forward to 2025...
