It was the right call to not pay Melancon IYAM

 

[zjcvols]

It gets prorated down with each passing day. That ~$7M will pay for itself in playoff gate G1

I don’t disagree with your logic at all. I just have no faith we are going to make moves that add significant salary based on moves and reports.

 

[Wickman]

We sign Fred yet?

 

[zjcvols]

We sign Fred yet?

The fact it’s not done yet highly concerns me about our future financial situation

 

[Florida Stanley]

We are gonna bring back Casey Kotchman

Idk if it’s years or not...idk what the hold up is...I gotta think $30M/year gets this done. Freddie is making $22M this year. You take Ender’s 8.7M this year and that gets it done. I’m not a huge fan of “pay x for what he has done into his 30’s” but not getting this done is bad for the franchise, city and the fanbase. Plus we have nobody in the wings ready to take that spot.

Gonna be awesome to not have a 1st or a 3rd bagger

What you mean? Riley is gonna play first next year!!!!!

lol I could see it, then move Ozuna to 3rd. Waters in left.

 

[zjcvols]

Ozuna would probably go to first actually lol

 

[zjcvols]

Also, as previously pointed out, we saved $200M on Acuna and Albies, so if we overpay Fred an extra $5M/year...I’ll live with it

 

[Florida Stanley]

Nah we just move Ozuna to 1st

 

[Florida Stanley]

Ozuna would probably go to first actually lol

Lol yeah this hit me really quick

 

[TBrown]

Lmao so we’re starting Ender but not Adrianza

 

[TBrown]

Snitker.... buddy....... retire

 

[Blake25p]

I’m happy to see some are coming around on the realization that Freddie isn’t coming back.

 

[vols 30]

Makes no sense.

What’s the latest on Arica? Assuming he was brought in to be on the big league roster?

 

[zjcvols]

Looks like he was optioned to the minors

 

[zjcvols]

My question...why are we having Jackson and Ender in the lineup at the same time?

 

[zjcvols]

 

[AV_12]

man I wish snit would have kept that to himself selfishly haha. Ynoa is projected to be low owned in dfs LOL

 

[AV_12]

Good to know tho

 

[C/O]

We need a professional hitter somewhere in that lineup.
