He's good and it's a good deal. Except it puts Varsho back in left field which woof

I imagine this probably takes the Jays out on Bellinger. Having 3 left handed centre fielders seems less than ideal. I'd expect Chapman back and probably Soler, JD Martinez or Justin Turner.

Where would Cody even play now that the Jays have brought back Kiermaier with Vlad Jr also at 1B? Or would they just DH Vlad?

the Cubs hired a new manager, the FO is pretty tuckered out at this point. understandable, really

Yeah DH’ing Bellinger removes his highest floor skill set, it makes very little sense

# ? Dec 26, 2023 20:11 |

They Jays frequently use the DH as a rotating off day to try and keep guys fresh, maybe they rotate Keirmaier, Springer, Bellinger and Vlad through it. Who knows

Fun fact: Dan Kiermaier, Kevin's brother, is the head groundskeeper at Wrigley.

I'm hearing that the Cubs are OUT on Kiermaier

Kiermaier was a decent hitter last season to be sure, dont look at the previous 5 years.

# ? Dec 26, 2023 21:51 |

I would assume the Jays would be in on just re-signing Matt Chapman before they go out and pay what Bellinger wants.

As an AAV it might be the same number!!! I just don't think having 3 left handed centre fielders is a good idea but then I'm not Ross Atkins

pseudodragon posted:I think the problem is more on the hitting side for a lack of platoonability and lineup balance. I guess, but 3 LHBs isn't too many, and I figure any CF can play COF, so it shouldn't be an alignment issue. (I think the big issue is that it's three LH CFs who aren't good hitters, than the LH or CF part, necessarily.)

Inspector_666 posted:(I think the big issue is that it's three LH CFs who aren't good hitters, than the LH or CF part, necessarily.) Yeah, if it's 3 LH CFs who are good enough to hit at a corner spot so they are your 3 starting OFs, great. But if they are going to be your starter and bench OFs, then you probably want a righty in the group.

Ya two of those guys aren't good enough to play everyday in a corner as hitters so you've got one guy that sorta just exists. Bellinger at 1B is fine I think but not sure that's how you should spend your money long-term.

General Bullshit posted:Wander Franco had his house raided and is missing. 'Missing' might be too sensational a description, at least based on the original article. They searched the home he was raised in, then the home he owns where his wife lives, and he wasn't at either one, so they left phone numbers with his wife with instructions for Wander to contact them. At least it's good to know that some sort of investigation is still on-going.
