If Santander can be in a package for say one of Seattle's SP, I'd do that. In all likelihood we are probably best off to keep him and let him walk after 2024 if that type of trade doesn't materialize. Same thing with Hays, although I think Hays is more replaceable and might have more value with an additional team controllable year.

Man it'd be awesome to have Mullins in LF and Bradfield in CF in 2025. Maybe Beavers could be the long term answer to LF?

We should have him return, and come in and soft toss lefty. They'll never see it coming.

I've never been happier to be wrong. I thought he was toast. Two months of a 1000 OPS isn't a hot streak. That's just a good hitter finding a groove.

This is pathedic

We should be able to hang some runs on these guys. Even yesterday was lackluster.

SOB

Hays always seems like a DP in the waiting. Ced just got unlucky.

Yea a ton of short term FA relievers for 2024. Not as worried about that.

Webb is the bulldog you need at closer. He's got the stuff and mentality. Keep everyone else in their current role.

I'm sure Cano will go to the 9th, but I'd put Webb. I wouldn't change up Cano's role. Isn't he like 4/8 in save opportunities this year? He just seems to work best in the 8th. I'd keep Coloumbe to the middle of the game tight spots/7th, Fuji 6th/7th, Cano 8th, Webb 9th.

So perhaps: 3B- Gunnar SS- Ortiz 2B- Holliday Westburg- UTIL/LF Assuming all of them stay.

I'm just hoping he's back for the playoffs and if not, back for 2024.

ROY odds now at -550 on DK. You don't want to call anything a lock (knock on wood), but hand that extra first round pick to Elias now!

Webb never gives up any runs he can be our closer now.

I kinda wanted to trade for Suter :S

Th Rockies have the worst ERA in the NL. Gotta be able to do more.

Not that I would have done it but I wonder what package was needed to acquire him.

Baumann just sucks. Was Fuji the only other available arm in the pen? We needed to win the game in the 9th, and if not certainly not give up more than one run in the 10th.

I’d trust Baker over Baumann. And I don’t really trust Baker at all.

Baumann is such ass. We have to have someone at AAA who can be better.

Baumann was tired of the easy wins he picked up earlier in the year, he wants us to earn them.

That was right. Down. The middle.

How will Baumann lose it? HR? HBP?

In 2025 I could easily see Kjerstad putting up similar (if not better than) to your typical Santander numbers.
