I don't remember those conversations. I pegged them at 90-95 wins in the poll, so there's no way I wouldn't have believed they could win 88 games. Which of course they didn't, even with the injuries and underperformance. The biggest thing I remember arguing with you about last off-season was that we didn't need to give Ortiz and Cowser up to get Burnes and it would be foolish to give up them both. I specifically argued that we didn't need to trade Ortiz as we could find a place for him to play, specifically citing the likelihood of injury. I really think you're thinking about somebody else. I'm also not sure why you think you were one of the voices arguing for "depth" as you were willing to lose Mateo and Urias for basically nothing, and they both contributed to this team and were a bulwark against injury/underperformance. You were willing to trade Cowser and where would we have been without him? This team's performance this year was well within the boundaries of what I expected, if a bit on the lower end. The only thing confusing to me about it was what happened to Rutschman. That said, my "confusion" is what is the best path forward. -
I think he’s getting somewhere around $180 million -

I agree with all of this but I also believe you took winning for granted. You argued with me in the offseason when I said this team could win as low as 88 games. You said no way, they are too talented, etc…you never wanted to take injuries into account. You felt the depth was too good, etc… Part of the reason you are lost, imo, is because you didn’t feel this scenario existed for this team. -

This is funny. The Guardians were 12th in HR and 14th in scoring. I guess their run scoring w/out HR wasn't that great. Seven of the top 10 teams in HR made the playoffs with AZ being one of the ones that didn't. -

Two Bergmans wouldn't be the worst thing to have. In case one gets his hand broke by a HBP or something.
