  1. 12 million a year + a first round draft pick I'll take a Saunders/Gentry platoon over this any day of the week.
  2. I prefer Saunders over Nava too in the RHP part of the platoon. More pop and has a higher ceiling. Nava has a better OBP though. No reason why we can't keep all 3 honestly.
  3. This is good..maybe the Reds or Jays end up giving us a better player/a 2nd or 3rd basemen.
  4. This is assuming he platoons with Gentry, we could end up getting 3-4 WAR from the LF position this year..5 WAR better than last year.
  5. It clearly is. Supposedly he's wanted Saunders since he was with the Yankees (and would have gone after him if he was still there). Same situation with Simmons.
  6. If he did that for us this year, I'd be ecstatic.
  7. If we could expand this trade to acquire one of the Reds 2nd/3rd basemen..that would be great.
  8. Yeah, this is kind of mind boggling. But you have to think that the Jays gave them something that we aren't close to having in our farm.
  9. Our team just got better. The responses in this thread are hilarious. We aren't giving up anything important for Saunders, I guarantee it.
  10. Better than last year. They both get on base EXTREMELY well (talking .350+ OBP) in a platoon. They just have no pop.
  11. Gentry vs LHP and Nava vs RHP is good enough for a platoon. Both end up having an OPS+ of 112 vs their preferred pitchers. What the hell did we give up for this guy? EDIT: He has some decent pop vs RHP I guess, definitely better than Gentry/Nava..maybe a pinch hitter late in games?
  12. No Kendrick, No Freese, No Iannetta, Pujols is 2 years older, Weaver is 2 years older, Wilson is 2 years older, worse bullpen.. I could go on and on honestly.
  13. Weaver needs to have his starts at home maximized this season.
  14. And the one glaring weakness was the most talented/loaded position pool in FA. This feels like a joke, a really bad joke that I haven't gotten yet.
  15. Didn't know Fowler was a consistent .360-.370 OBP guy. We should bite the bullet and go for it.
  16. Donaldson will be 32 in 2018. Kill me now.. Keyword spending like ''an idiot''. If we signed Beltre in 2011 (a consistent 6-7 WAR player) we probably would have made the playoffs at least 2 more times. I feel like not signing Upton will be something we regret too.
  17. Wishful thinking by Yankee fans overrating the value of Gardner/what they can get for him. If we do trade for Gardner, it would most likely be for Santiago/Wilson/Trop/Shoemaker.
  18. I have a feeling we're going to regret this the same way we regretted not signing Beltre in 2011.
  19. Only a 2nd round draft pick if we sign Upton. If we sign Cespedes, I don't see any value in bringing back Kendrick or Freese for a 1st rounder either.
