The space between Carlos Rodon and Jordan Lyles down to a Baker's Dozen by my reckoning:

Rodon

Senga-Eovaldi-Kluber-Stripling-Taillon-Bassitt-Manaea

Smyly-Wacha-R.Hill-Quintana-Lyles

I would have been ok with Kluber as the secondary piece but not the “main addition.”

Haha, suckers. We stole Gibson right out from under their noses, now they've had to settle for Walker and his sub-4.00 career ERA and 1.23 career WHIP.

Did Syndergaard sign?

I am sticking with my Stripling to the Orioles.

My gut tells me Manaea or Wacha, but Stripling feels pretty plausible too.

Liftoff, baby!

Weren't you whining about the idea of signing Walker 20 minutes ago?

I was eating leftover pizza and watching Youtube videos about 90s pro wrestling 20 minutes, so no, I don't believe so.

I think it’s likely Stripling, and Tucker Barnhart for a good defense back up Catcher and ….. I really want Benintendi, but more likely a one year make good deal for Conforto.

Time for Elias to start working on the "shocked by the price of free agents and the market moved so fast" speech.  At least he pre-emptively started dumpster diving.  Duquette would have still been in the perculating stage.

Yep...

Benintendi LF
Rutschman C
Henderson 3B
Santander DH
Mountcastle 1B
Mullins CF
Hays RF
Westburg 2B
Mateo SS

Looks solid to me. Too bad it's not happening...

I was just talking myself into Conforto. I think that's a good guess.

All the talk from Roch has been on SP's, saying multi year offers have been made.

Well it must have been 120 minutes ago then.

Pretty sure he's capable of earing pizza, watching youtube videos, and posting all at the same time.  I don't buy his alibi.

But will they be accepted is the big question.
