maqroll Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 I haven't seen fan anger like this since the mid 90s. Even the local NBC affiliate is trashing them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zen Posted December 12, 2022 Author Share Posted December 12, 2022 Yeah, Bloom doesn’t appear to know what he’s trying to do. Half measures all the way. Rodon, Correa, Swanson the biggest names still on the board, unless I’ve missed someone. I hope the Yanks go for Rodon and re-sign Ben in 10D. Having Correa at short for a year would be great, and they need upgrades at both short and third, but they’ve got some interesting kids on the cusp of being ready/already ready to fill those spots. Not sure if Rodon and a healthy Benny is enough to compete with Houston, but of course the cheating Astros are without Verlander now, which might make them less formidable.

El Zen Posted December 14, 2022 Author Share Posted December 14, 2022 Correa to the Giants. 13/350. As good a player as he is, that’s a lot of years for a SS with back issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zen Posted December 16, 2022 Author Share Posted December 16, 2022 Rodon to NYY for 6/162. Very happy with that. Cole/Rodon/Cortes is competetive in the play offs. Now get a contact lefty bat for LF and they look okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zen Posted December 16, 2022 Author Share Posted December 16, 2022 10D to CWS for 5/75. Wouldn’t have minded him as the Yankees left fielder, but not on a five year deal. Joey Gallo to Minny for 1/11, which should be about a buck fifty per strikeout. I hope he turns it around, but his at bats are about the most painfully helpless things I’ve seen in a Yankee uniform.

El Zen Posted December 17, 2022 Author Share Posted December 17, 2022 Swanson to the Cubs. 7/177. That’s pretty much the top shelf FAs all gone. It’s been a fun hot stove so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zen Posted December 17, 2022 Author Share Posted December 17, 2022 And JD Martinez to LAD for 1/10. A bit surprised by that, but it is a fairly low risk potentially high reward contract for the Dodgers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zen Posted December 18, 2022 Author Share Posted December 18, 2022 Michael Brantley set to return to Houston for 1/12. This FA class is quickly running out of LHH outfielders. The Yanks might need to find their LF via trade, or some dark horse in-house candidate from the farm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Bloom had Betts, Xander and Devers anchoring what should've been a dynasty. He's let Betts go for scraps and Xander for nothing. Unacceptable. Watch Devers go next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Turner (38) is one for the future I just don’t get signing a fairly expensive, very old player in your best player’s position. They wouldn’t trade Devers, surely? I get that Turner can and will DH a lot, but he won’t make Boston a contender anyway, so what’s the point? If they end up letting Devers go, after Mookie and Xander, there’ll be riots in Boston and rightfully so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Zen Posted December 26, 2022 Author Share Posted December 26, 2022 Now there’s an issue with Correa’s medical with the Mets as well. Reports say they are now ‘working through things’ so he might still sign with them, but something’s not right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
