  1. Not Hot Stove but I couldn't skip this one: True or total BS, all I can say is
  2. Somehow we've gone from David Fletcher is overrated to David Fletcher is a significant liability in the lineup. His floor is a weak hitting defensive specialist. Basically Velazquez with a few more hits. That's not amazing, but it's still worth in the neighborhood of 1-2 WAR, which is okay if the rest of your lineup crushes it.
  3. Is Andrus a sure thing, though? I don't have a huge problem with what we have at SS at the moment.
  4. Same reason Trout didn't? The money is going to be generational either way and for some people it really comes down to other priorities, like where you feel happiest. He already chose the Angels once. Shouldn't be much of a shock if it happens again. Also, he already signed one contract a year before he could've made bigger money, so it's pretty clear he doesn't think like you do.
  5. That's good, because defense is a definite concern with this lineup. Some positions it's fine, but others....we'll see.
  6. Did you wake up today and decided to be a troll?
  7. National guys will always bash you unless you spend a ton of money on established names.
  8. So, basically everyone other than Trout, Ohtani, and Ward? New low for Keith Law, tbh.
  9. So, basically, we didn't sign all of Turner, Verlander, and Judge.
  10. Good. I'm tired of being picked as the off-season winner or dark horse contender only to fall flat. Let them think what they want, they won't see us coming.
  11. Name me any GM or PBO who has no payroll restrictions and I'll call BS. Even Cohen has some degree of limitations, no matter how small.
  12. "No, Arte, you can't spend that much. Because it doesn't fit my budget."
  13. Geez, people. "He wants to win - he's definitely leaving." You mean like how Trout was always talking about how important winning was to him and he was sure to leave? Pessimism makes people incredibly short sighted.
  14. Just out of curiosity, what have you heard? Negotiations going on? Is there mutual interest in him staying? I thought I heard that prior to the sale, they were pretty far apart on agreeing on his contract value.
  15. You seriously think Ohtani doesn't add value to the franchise? He adds a shit ton of value to the team.
  16. Source: @Chuckster70 I actually am wondering if offers were low because of the risk of losing Ohtani and Moreno is going to try to re-sign Ohtani and then get in contact with interested parties after the season if he's successful.
