Darude - Adam Sandstorm posted:From day one it was dumb as hell and i said as much at the time. Yeah it was a horrible trade for Toronto that I didn't understand but greatly appreciated so that I did not have to watch a full season of Carson Kelly catching Varsho is the best defensive CF in baseball but he's a sub-700 OPS hitter because of poor OBP. He's due for positive regression next year but still, Moreno + Gurriel helped propel the DBacks this year

mcmagic posted:Heyman wrote an article about the Yankees signing Bellinger and I hate it. I'd rather they do a stop gap and sign Soto next year if they can't work out a trade for him. I'm curious, why would you hate that? Bellinger had shady peripherals but if the Yankees want to switch to focusing on batting average which he has provided before last season as well. Is it just the fact that Yankee FA signings collapse the second the contract is signed?

bawfuls posted:If Ohtani genuinely considers the very bland comments Dave Roberts made (yes we met a few days ago, I thought it went well, he's amazing, he's his own man it's up to him) to be a disqualifying leak, then lol ok I guess. I'd hardly consider that a leak or novel information on negotiations. Is he really that much of a diva/narcissist? I didn't think so, but maybe we'll find out. The Dodger Nation heel turn begins It'll only intensify when Ohtani signs with San Fransisco to specifically punish Dave Roberts
