I guess it depends on the “stud” player you’re talking about. I don’t think Mayo or Basallo go anywhere. I’d be surprised to see Westburg go too. One of Cowser/Kjerstad and Norby/Ortiz and then even someone like Bradfield/Beavers should bring back plenty. -

None of us know anything and debate is fun and all, but these are some really strong, unique opinions. Signing a RP takes us out of the high end SP market because it frees up Wells to start, but we should also sign Robertson? Montgomery was likely vetoed over $4m and not because Elias didn’t want to part with the prospects it would cost? If the Os are doling out $10m to Gibson and $8m to Frazier, they’re giving Montgomery $4m for two months. They may end up relying on Wells/Hall or a bargain vet as a #5 SP this year, but they’ve clearly stated they’d rather pursue a TOR guy. Assuming you can get that guy for less than 3 years in FA or less than the Cowser tier in prospects is just not realistic. I think they’re absolutely still in on Cease and will turn to Luzardo/Skuball or someone else if they miss out. -
My read on that is an additional year lease would be too cumbersome and unnecessary. They really only need an additional month, to allow for the General Assembly to meet in January and approve the development rights deal. A monthly lease would be better suited in this case, assuming the GA approves the terms outlined in the "Memorandum of Understanding". -

There really isn’t much, if anything, in his stats that says “the wheels are bound to fall off soon” -
What if they felt he needs AAA PAs to really develop? Each player is different and maybe they felt it doesn't make sense to keep him at the lower levels because he can just dominate those kinds of players? Holliday very well may be promoted before August, but if there's no need on the big league club, it makes sense long term to give him that development time in AAA and financially for the club because it breaks his free agency up with Gunnar's by two years. -
I see Angelos as not spending on both. Each one made 10M last year. -
I think Mayo is trade bait for a high end acquisition. They aren’t gonna trade Holliday or Basallo, if they want a legit stud player it’s going to cost and I think Mayo is the price.
