Shiroc posted:Is the problem for the Phillies in willingness to spend money or that they keep busting when they decide to? I hadn't followed the NL East too closely recently but it seemed like they were putting up money for guys. Its like ones like Arrieta who tanked or Harper who is a good not great player. a) The Phillies are walking back "stupid money" and cutting payroll b) They spent a lot of money on poo poo that didn't work out like Arrieta, Cutch, and Robertson c) Phillies had to spend stupid money to begin with because their "rebuild" utterly failed to acquire good players Mickey Moniak lol Nissin Cup Nudist fucked around with this message at 17:35 on Jan 11, 2021 |

bewbies posted:I bet harper is going to be an interesting HOF case...he'll have basically one really great season and probably some really impressive counting stats, but I'm betting like 12-13 more years of good solid uninspiring 3-WAR-per-year ball is how the rest of his career goes down. That'd put him at like ~70 career WAR, but with only one real standout year in his career. Harper just turned 28. I'm not so sure his best season is behind him. It's a little early to have this conversation IMO.

Strasburgs UCL posted:Nats beat reporters have said the Nats are preparing as if they won't have a DH this year. They just don't value outfield defense all that much. Its pretty consistent with how they have operated under Rizzo. Both Adam Lind and Matt Adams played left field (albeit only a few times) when they were here! I will always love Schwarber - I actually have the 2016 WS patch jersey of his, and whenever it's ultimately safe, I'm going to wear it with pride to Cubs Spring Training games while also holding a giant sign that says TRUMP, but as an abbreviation for "The Ricketts Use Money Poorly", and just "gently caress the Ricketts" on the other side.

I don't think you need to worry about that unless you think he would accept a 3/50 with a club option for 4th year  They thought Kolten Wong was too much at $13m

Uhhhh Bryce Harper has a looooooong way to go before any sort of hall of fame talk imo. He's only received MVP votes 3 out of his 9 seasons and one was MVP-30 and the other MVP-12. That's... not even close to HoF material for an outfielder. And for counting stat "locks", he needs 170 hits a season throughout the rest of his contract to get to 3,000. He's hit that mark once, in his MVP season. Thom P. Tiers fucked around with this message at 19:49 on Jan 11, 2021 |

Harper has 11 more seasons under contract to put up another ~40 WAR which would put him around the average for HOF RF's. Well within the realm of possibility although he could definitely use another MVP season or two under his belt to solidify his case.

Harper is insanely good and most of the anger toward him is because of the media hype. MLB Network was talking about how his career eerily parallels Reggie Jackson through their first 1100 games.

Are they just going to playthrough mass outbreaks? I don't see how they do 162 unless there are a ton of 7-inning doubleheaders to make up a team not playing for 2 weeks.

He's the only MLB player in the top-100 of athlete Q-score. (I could be wrong if it turns out there's something wrong with Q-score as a measure of fame, but it makes sense to me)
