It’s close. And it isn’t that I think McDermott is all that. It’s just that we need more depth as it is, and I don’t think trading a guy like McDermott, who can help, is the best move.
If they made this trade, I’d love to have Skubal. If we lose another starter, then I’d miss McDermott.
First scenario, way too much, 12 to 14 years of control, plus Skubal is a pitcher and all the potential BS that comes with that. Holliday? if you think hes a bust youre still paying too much. For either one of these I would want Kirby or Paul Skenes who might even cost more
I was there. It was the first baseball game that I've walked out on in years. Tides had the lead, then Durham put up something like 8 runs in an inning and we left in the 8th or so.
A bit depressing that the AAA team and the big league team get blown out like that on the same day (I was tracking the O's on my phone at the game).
Plus we got soaked by a crazy violent rainstorm before play even started. Just an overall loser of a day. At least the rain cooled things off. It's been over 100 this week where I live.
