After they traded Seth Johnson and Moises Chace for Greg Soto they are not going non tender him. Especially since he had an ERA close to 1.00 in his last 20 appearances. He made 5m last year and will probably make between 5m and 6m in 2025.
The guy with the 8m option is righty Dominguez.
How many extra PA does a player get batting 1st over batting 3rd in a year? I’m not sure, but it’s been posted here before. Are those lost PA over the course of the season worth being sacrificed for more run creation outcomes?
I’d say no, as of now, but we’re getting close. Especially with Westburg being near All Star level at the #2 spot. Also, we had Santa. Now we don’t. So do we see Gunnar go to #3?
In this current market, aren’t we the team that has an “unfair” advantage?
#1 Adley, #1 Holliday, #2 Heston, #4 Cowser.
All in our everyday lineup. All acquired because we took advantage of the system and tanked. Picks that high will never happen again like that with the new rules that MLB put in place.
We’re not exactly the underdogs anymore.
Let’s say we choose to resign all of our top picks? Do we become the evil empire just for keeping our guys? See why the crying over payroll should stop.
