Hmm.  A “free” pitcher for depth.  No net impact on the net cash expense “budget”, and couple of extra bucks to help the luxury tax hit of now signing Bauer?

Great way to start off a new month!   Happy Monday everyone!  2021 Rocks!

Pitchers and catchers are reporting this month!

Party at Tanks! All the garbanzo beans you can eat!

5 pages and the trade still hasn't be announced wtf.

Just wait until we find out the Angels are on the hook for 10 mill and sending them a prospect in the 10-15 range 

[Angels 1961]

His last 4 starts ERA was 2.61.

Notify the parade planning committee

now it has gotten quiet.....and dark.....

Cobb and Santander for some of our guys without playing time (like Ward, Thaiss, Suarez, potentially Barreto, Jones, Rengifo) and/or lower level prospects would give us more defined rotation depth and a really exciting right fielder who makes Adell and Marsh a little more expendable if need be. Good offensive potential, excellent defense, switch hitter, and he’s been mentioned in trade talks this winter.

Having Cobb and Santander makes it easier to move a SP and RF for a frontline arm. 

And no real bad long term salary in play.

Some of Cobb's more impressive starts in the shortened 2020 season.

This trade is sketching me out because we don’t know what the Angels are sending in return....better not be someone of value.

[Stradling]

Do they have any relief pitchers we should want?

You should probably sit out of this and most off season threads  TG. Your contribution to these threads is like “Can he pitch?” Posts when they acquire a catcher or outfielder.
