1. Rockies
2. Mariners

I don't need to watch us be bad with the Orioles, I can do that in real life anytime I want. :v:

Awesome to see this, I did a long run with the Mariners in last year's game so I'm excited to see how they do here.


Player acquisition
2. Trash Heap Players - So many players that we can pick up at bargain bin prices which saves room in the budget for pitchers and stars like Kelenic

Roster Strategy
3. Push this year. - The AL West is softer than it's been historically, we could probably ride out close to .500 as is.

Team Strategy
2. Smallball - It's time to bring it back. High speed and contact teams can still work and are more fun.

General Priorities
2. Pitching - Always more pitchers

Hitter Priorities (pick 2)
2. Contact - High contact players are so good in this game if they have even decent power.
3. Eye - Getting on base is also good.

Pitcher priorities:
3. Control - A pitcher with even decent stuff can be great with good control.
1. Starters - Starters are what make the world go round, and they're the only part of this team as is I like.

Coaching Staff
2. Honestly I think Servais is fine, but if the baby must be thrown out with the bath water he can go.

Just gonna echo this post for the most part, let's do some small ball bullshit.

lmao at giving Paxton 4/100, not a chance with that injury history. The Kyle Wright trade is intriguing but I think we stand pat...for now, anyway.

3. Our pitching is fine (great, even), and it's not like he's gonna mysteriously lose all his prowess if we stuff him at AAA this year to work on his secondary stuff some more. If we absolutely need him, fine, but he could be even more filthy next year and that can only be to our benefit.

Option A's for sure. We built a juggernaut, now let's go fight it.

I don't think we can go wrong with Harris or Coressell, but finding a stud starting pitcher is probably going to be a lot harder than a good 3B so I'm leaning towards Coressell.

Not feeling any of those right now. Might end up eating some trade value for keeping him this year, but probably better to see if we can turn him around a bit and fish around again in the offseason.

Josh Lowe:
2) Execute and trade

Jesus Galiz:
1) Trade or decline arb

Nate Pearson QO:

Free agents. Pursue:
Either of the pitchers but don't go insane breaking the bank, if that fails
5) Sign a lesser free agent SP

Only thing I'm gonna disagree with on this is that we should keep Galiz if we can't find a good trade partner. Can't imagine that'll be the case, but we're not *that* desperate that we should throw away an excellent catcher.
