But we have other options if that happens and we shouldn’t be trading assets for areas we don’t really need.

He’s better at his age than Povich has basically ever been. Higher K rate, better walk rate, great HR rate and high Gb rate. As a prospect, he’s better. Doesn’t mean he will be the better pitcher. Povich has had a good month. He was inconsistent and unreliable throughout his whole pro career (although good potential) up until this April.

For what position? Bats aren’t something we are lacking or need.

The poor K rate for Scott really bothers me too

I doubt DeLeon is in the rotation next year. Povich may not be the best pitching prospect on his own team. He’s just off to a better start than McDermott.

It’s not so much the ranking as saying he may be the more important than Mayo and Basallo. That’s a bit much and yes I get the idea that he’s a pitcher and we need that but high end elite talent is always more important and valuable.

Ok, calm down a little on Povich.

High GB% and high K rate is such a wonderful combo. His swingstr% could use some improving but it’s not too far from very good.

Suarez shouldn’t even be considered an option for next year right now.

Roster spots tbd but that can be figured out rather easily. Cabrera represents a move that could be for now but it’s more of a long term move. He isn’t a FA until after 2029.

Cabrera and Bender for Stowers, Norby, Mordan and a lottery ticket/recent draft pick/B- type prospect?

And Cabrera would still be high on my list. Some injury concerns with him, so I’m not sure how far I would extend for him but I would look into it for sure. Norby and Stowers make some sense as part of the deal although they may be older than Miami would like.

You mean the guy whose K rate has dropped 3.5 Ks per nine and whose walk rate is higher than his K rate? No thanks. A more below the radar move would be adding someone like Anthony Bender. Wouldn’t have to give up too much for him. Try to get them to take back Urias (to replace Arraez at second) as part of the deal..even paying some of his salary if needed. Add in a guy like Max Wagner and maybe a lottery ticket Intl player or someone who was a recent draft pick. Something along those lines.

It’s funny…feels like he’s had a bad yea but the ERA is under 3. Obviously he has had some troubling peripherals and poor command and control at times though. Great start tonight. Str% about 64%.

Yea, Tiger SHOULD have. He dominated his sport unlike anyone ever has in basically any sport. He absolutely wins way more if he wasn’t a knucklehead, didn’t get hurt, etc….thats not even up for debate.
