If the Reds are signing Dolittle, we can forget pulling anything from there in al likelyhood.

That’s what I attempted to do. Technology is hard lol. Or maybe I am just a dumbass.

Probably because he wasn’t good in 2019 or 2020.

He's smart, though.  He'll figure it out.

Angels were reported to have interest.

I would have taken archer at that price. Odirizzi or a trade must be the next move 

[Tank]

our pitching coach situation is in flux. i wonder how that's going to affect any free agent pitchers we're interested in signing.

Wow, Archer got 6.5 million. I definitely wasn't expecting that. I was thinking 2-3 million.

Or both. 

Move Heaney to a contending team needing a starting pitcher since he has just this season left on his contract. Sign Odorizzi or Walker to a 2-3 year deal.

I agree. Honestly with how many 1 year deals I would sign both of those guys to respective 2-3 year deals. Odirizzi 3 year 27-33m and walker to a 1+1 team option at 4-5 per

Yeah, I'd even look at extending Bundy if he comes out of the gate well to a 2-year extension.

Isn't that exactly what the Angels are though?!?  I do kind of understand your point, it's just funny i guess

[Angels in 2030]

Heaney > Walker (someone seriously wants to sign Walker to a 2-3 year deal....yikes risky). 

Arguably Heaney > Odorizzi (at worst the same...but i'd rather extend Heaney than pay 3+ years to Odorizzi).

My thought as well. Could make the Cobb trade more palatable. Cobb at 6.5/7.5 million is much better than Archer at that price.
