Rumors do be rumoring.


That package for LuBob or LuBob & Cease?


That would have to be for both. Especially given how Chas proved himself this year


Selling high.

Here are the sims

So, if that happens, who starts in center?

Weird stat of the night.

The player with the closest similarity score to Luis Robert? None other than Kyle Tucker.

Not only that but he was a top 2-3 defensive CF in baseball.

So hypothetically, we get a center fielder and a good starting pitcher in Cease, but we have to give up two starting pitchers to do it. JV, Javier, Framber, France, and Cease are the starting rotation with LMJ and LuAce coming back in July-August. Would we still need another starter, or order some Spaghetti from Sugar Land to fill the gap until those guys get back?

That package is too much for one of them. Way too much.

They'll sell lots of regular season tickets and merch, and continue to do nothing in the playoffs

To land Robert and Cease you're going to have to give up some real assets.

Trout will be on the IL by July and Shohei is having TJ surgery. They will fit right in. LA had something like 12 pitchers on the 60 day IL at the end of the season.

This just in. Detroit, CWS, Cleveland, KC, Miami, Cincy, Pittsburg, StL, Milwaukee are all expected to follow Seattle and not make an offer to Shohei Ohtani.

Wow. That is some serious money.



It'll probably end up around 6/175 to 7/190 area.

I would imagine Smell & Monty will be 130-160 ranges based on that.

I wanted to talk to at least one of my guys before posting about this. This is a huge loss for the Astros. No way around it.

Snell yes but Monty I can't see that high. I'd guess $120m is his cap.

extensions are one thing, but these are FAs taking less. Extensions by their nature are almost always going to be below (FA) market value.

Sure but I bet the Phillies would love to have Nola 2/55 M and not be paying him until he's 39.

Keep in mind Phillies are paying 95 cents on the dollar. We're not exactly in the same ballpark with our few FA offers to big names.
