How would you even trade Ohtani? Soto got maybe the most insane package back ever and Ohtani's even better. No one could match what he'd be worth.

Unfortunate that 1B and Outfield (after Judge) is so thin, those are both areas where Giants could make sizable upgrades. Though I think they'll be fine with a 1B cobbled together out of some combination of Villar/Flores/Davis/Longoria, especially if Casey Schmitt is able to come up to MLB and hold down 3B. More concerning is the outfield. I don't think Joc should be back, he gave up everything he contributed with the bat back on his lousy defense. Keep Yaz/Slater as a centerfield platoon and try to find players who can both hit and play defense for the corners. Obviously any of the top ticket shortstops would be an upgrade on Crawford, most likely, but I feel there are more pressing concerns. Shortstop X + Judge won't be enough by itself to turn the team around, IMO. Belt probably won't be back, but I think that's fine. As great as he's been with the team before this year, the Giants need to get younger and less injury prone. LaStella just needs to be cut, he's contributed nothing these past two years and using him as our 78 OPS+ DH forced us to use so many below par defenders this year. Thairo Estrada is more than capable at 2B. Also re-sign Rodon.

If no one traded for Rodon because he could have opted into one year for $11 million if he got hurt, no one would have given anything for Correa.

elentar posted:Welp the Braves finally ran out of fumes, this sorta crash has been coming and I’m amazed it took this long. Fun that they overhauled and doomed the Mets, but just as clearly the Mets doomed the Braves by making them go so far into the red for the division race. Hard to complain otherwise, Phillies always play the Braves tough and were obviously better this series. This is the second year in a row two 100+ win teams exhausted each other in a narrow division race and crapped out in the playoffs. They really should re-seed the playoffs based on win total.

every time I see a Dodgers season it's like “the team had three separate 28-game win streaks en route to a 137-25 season while the lineup did something that hasn't been done since ‘The Massacre Men’ of the 1886 Allentown Boatswains, as Los Angeles lost in the NLDS 3-1”

FWIW I do think the playoffs should be re-seeded based of record. This is the second year in a row two 100+ win teams exhausted each other in a narrow divisional race, only to get bounced early on.

The impact of a manager is hard to quantify via stats, but I have a hard time believing it doesn't exist. Have none of you had a lovely boss before? That sort of thing definitely affects workers. Anyway Boch rules and this is a great pickup by the Rangers.

Hot take however annoying you might think McMagic is he's absolutely right the Yankees aren't winning any time soon with Cashman and Boone in charge. But equally this level of not overspending and almost being good enough is exactly what Steinbrenner Jr. wants so...

Not sure why they'd give Joc the QO but I guess we're seeing him back on the Giants again. His bat was good even if his defense cancelled all of it out.

It also pisses me off that Cashman didn't trade the farm for an Ace is Carlos Rodon at the deadline, so I agree with everything he's saying.

A bunch of nerds are going to pretend to be angry when the obvious choice, Aaron Judge, wins AL MVP. Of course the obvious and easy solution to the Ohtani/Judge problem is for Judge to sign with an NL team, then for Ohtani to follow him to that team a year later.

# ¿ Nov 18, 2022 01:18 |

In order for Ohtani to win MVP people have to be willing to watch Angels games and that's just not happening.

Sydin posted:Honestly I'm at the point where the bulk of my annoyance the Astros cheated isn't about the integrity of the game or their fraudulent 2017 title, but rather that every time it comes up it makes this thread largely unreadable for a full day. Which is unfortunate because SAS is like the one place I've found on the internet where you can discuss sports in a way that doesn't immediately devolve in to rampant racism, sexism, and death threats. Yeah this. I beg of you, make a new thread for the Astros cheating circlejerkery and shut up about it here. It's always the same handful of posters too.

From my experience, Bryan Reynolds is worth about a half-season from a broken down Andrew McCutcheon, so it should be pretty easy to get a deal done.
