With the broadcast team announced... Palmer, Brown, McDonald... okay! Arnold, Hollander, Long, Newman... meh. We'll give them some time. Garceau... my soul died a little. -
Assuming most of the good Bowie pitchers have to try to do Norfolk world domination before maybe an Akin/Kremer sized sip, would anyone want Jake Arrieta at ANY price for the Sutcliffe things? Floor starting pitchers with little October upside are the one group (Happ, Quintana, Lester) of players falling far short of Fangraphs guesses among recent signees. I somewhat suspect no one very good really wants 2021 Arrieta pitching for them, but as ever...we may have a job for some qualified major leaguer. He'd be more entertaining than a Milone clone, but does the regime feel he's anyone for Kremer, Akin, etc. to be around (non-Cobb category) for a year. -
I agree with all of your points. Flacco was 27 when we won the Super Bowl. That's 3 full years away for Lamar FWIW -
How much of this can you put on the O-line and lack of separation by receivers? I feel like he shoulders so much pressure with the "If I don't make the play, no one will" attitude, that yes he does tend to hold onto the ball too long instead of throwing it away. What about the two HUGE drops by Dobbins wide open in space? That first drop was game changing in my opinion. People love the traditional stand back in the pocket and sling it everywhere QB. Which is why everyone now loves Josh Allen. People love to pile on Lamar for being 1-3 in the playoffs. Josh Allen is 2-2. Lamar has an MVP to his name at 24 (Josh played at an MVP level this year). He was awful in that Chiefs playoff game. I imagine Josh Allen will be looking to get paid this offseason as well. Market shows he will be in the same 35-40 million dollar range, now that Watson signed the deal in Houston. Hard to say you are getting less than all of these other QB's that, in theory have produced equally, or less than Lamar has. I get it and the thought process. But, its either pay the man or risk being awful, while attempting to find your next franchise QB. I pay the man.

A fanciful can to kick - contracts aside, from here would you rather have John Means or Chris Sale?

Dombrowski having gotten Realmuto to take his $$$ I guess has bowed out on Semien, and Twins beat guy reporting his team and Brewers possible suitors. I can get kicking Jorge Polanco, Orlando Arcia and Luis Urias all off SS island, though with Lewis coming I guess Minnesota hoping for 2B like Red Sox did before Enrique. Brewers and Twins would even give Galvis/Villar landing spots before us assuming OAK/PHI/CIN naturally ahead of us for the main three. Galvis back to Philly seems likelier now.
