Dog Faced JoJo posted:"I’m an Astro, bro," Reggie Jackson, a special advisor to Houston owner Jim Crane, told Mark Berman of Fox 26 last week at Minute Maid Park. "The pinstripes get heavy sometimes." Well he literally works for the Astros so e: found a poster's youtube account https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDTUZUo0TT0 Intruder fucked around with this message at 04:35 on Oct 27, 2022 |

Sydin posted:idk about Boone but I think at least right now the disconnect between fans and industry people regarding Cashman is that Cashman has historically been one of the best GM's in the league, but he honestly kinda stunk it up this year in some very visible ways. The Donaldson-Gio swap turned out to be a straight downgrade, big name SS's like Seager/Story/Correa were passed up in the offseason for a cheaper IKF trade who Cashman assured everybody would break out and then he didn't, the whole missing out on Castillo but still trading away Montgomery fiasco, and trading away one of their better and MLB-ready pitching prospects in Wesneski for Effross, only to see Effross quickly go down for 18 months needing TJS while Wesneski excelled with the Cubs down the stretch. And those are just the ones I remember as a casual outside observer, I'm sure mcmagic could crack open the ancient book of Yankee fan grudges and pile more on. I've never seen every single trade* absolutely blow up in a team's face like they did for the Yankees this year even as they generally got good grades at the time. Andrew Benintendi broke a bone that he had removed in college. *Harrison Gooder excepted, obviously.

At least the media circus around whether he'd get the shot or not if traded to the AL East was funny I guess?

That really doesn't make any sense at all and isn't defensible no matter how you massage the statistics. Also why are there 6 catcher finalists but only 4 at other infield positions? Are they set numbers (in which case they probably threw darts at the catcher list after #3) or is it variable each year (in which case Maldonados inclusion is even less explicable)

The Cubs said they're gonna slap a QO on Willson. If that's enough to scare teams away, then we do the whole rigmarole at the trade deadline again.

I haven't heard much in awhile about Michael Conforto. I think in July/August it was reported that he was looking to try and catch on with a contending team but of course that never happened. I have to assume he's going to try and get some kind of one year 'prove it' deal this offseason.

I'm curious what the Diamondbacks do this off season. They finished the season strong and look like they could be a pretty decent team next year, I wonder if they make any big splashes.
