Semantics. Could be a first rounder, could be later but still a big price for a small market team that was has to overpay wildly.

Are you going to tell me what it is? The new cba doesn’t go into effect until next year for FAs.

QO is no longer a first rounder?

Twins gave up their first round pick for what could be a one year deal. Painful. What small market teams have to do these days, absurd.

Zero chance of anything close to that. Zero. Not until a new owner arrives.

Somebody that was drafted by Elias in Houston that isn’t very good. Seems like a theme. Not really sure why we have a GM since we sign few players and most are to minor league deals. We could just get by with a scouting director. Think of the savings!

Agreed 110% but my guess until Peter passes, we are “rebuilding” just watch

John Miller & Joe Angel: the best, hard stop. Palmer/Cakes of course, legendary pitcher & commentator. I miss Gary Thorne.

I don’t know much about Voit. I wasn’t overwhelmed looking at his stats but seemed like a hot commodity.

Good to see Beisbol back. Busy sports day with the tournie games. really really disappointed with the lack of signings by Elias. Wasn’t fully expecting a big splash this year but same pathetic effort. I sure wish more fans & media would hold him and the team to a higher standard. 38 years since last championship….

My goodness. We can’t even afford that? I know this board loves to make endless excuses for the Great Elias but he’s truly unimpressive. Nobody stopping moves like that but him.

Excellent post. Biggest factor is when Peter passes sadly, so might end up being the closest plan (Tampa 2025)

I think this guy is the starting SS. Not joking. Pure SS it seems, which we lack other than Martin.

Some teams have a burning to win. Others have a burning to be in AAA . 1983 was a long time ago. 38 years ago to be exact.

I don’t know but he needs to actually show some skills in building a winner, not just tanking indefinitely. So far, lots of time to prepare for this fa kickoff and very lackluster thus far. Very disappointed in lack of aggressiveness here. Money he might have limits but lots of good fa pieces out there & trades to be had!

Dodgers saw something, good pickup.

Yeah, It made sense but my guess is he still doesn’t have approval to spend.

Went to Nationals. Remember when DD didn’t think Cruz was worth the third year? LOL Good times. So much incompetent leadership in this franchise’s history. And he did ok considering ownership…

Great resource: https://www.baseballamerica.com/stories/guide-to-the-new-cba-draft-lottery-expanded-playoffs-and-more/ Os can’t pick in top 6 more than 2 years in a row it states.

I respectfully disagree but appreciate the dignified response. He stinks and than this? Why is he on the 40 man. Reminds me of Sir Sydney frame wise.

I am better than you, clearly. Low bar.

The tweet in question was not about Dukes of Hazzard to be perfectly clear.

I read your position. I have nothing to say to you other than bugger off.

I can message you the tweet in question. It’s bad. Even Trumpers I know thought it was disgusting. If you want to see it, I’ll message it, not post it. It’s much worse than what is being discussed here.
