The MLB Offseason Thread

[Oldfaithful]

Here we stand with Angelo's cheapness and the fact that the Cubs are going to try and compensate for losing in the playoffs this year by trying to overpay for literally everyone.

Oh look. Britton is on the market. Oh boy oh boy.

No use in keeping him tbh. Buck will just not bring him out when the game is on the line again.

 

[OriolesMagicPlease]

If they were going to trade Britton, they should have done it at the end of last season when he totally kicked butt and his value was at an all time high. I wouldn't trade him now unless the offer was too good to pass up.

At least Ubaldo is likely gone....

Angelos is gonna resign him isn’t he?

Plz kill me.

 

[Oldfaithful]

Yankees will probably end up with Machado too. Show me the money!

Machado and Harper on the same team. How long until they fight each other? I love both as players but they're drama queens

Agree. But it would be fun to watch. It would be like two former past male models fighting on a message board about who is the supreme being.

If we resign Ubaldo it will be proof that Angelos is officially senile. And I will protest!

Ubaldo's not coming back.

I have that quick twitch muscle and you know it

No question. Harper where’s his heart ams love of game on his sleeve. There are instances where he does fly off the handle, in many cases it is warranted.

I would like to think that Dan is not that stupid.

Do you think that makes you special or something?

Only to a certain poster.

Ohtani to the Angels.

Chatwood to the Cubs.

Castillo to the White Sox.

Fister and Minor to the Rangers.

Fiers to the Tigers.

And it sounds like Stanton is going to be traded to NYY.

 

[RavensMania]

Stanton to the Yankees. One team out of the Harper sweepsteaks

That is crazy money to throw out to one player. Stanton is a beast but he does have an injury history.

 

[Oldfaithful]

Good. Trading for Stanton would have been a bad idea. Don't eat up that much money for a dude that is that injury prone. Just wait to pay Harper next offseason

O's Logic: Pay Trumbo and Davis, and potentially trade Machado when he's only 25. I really hope we don't trade Machado and at least make him an offer to keep him long term.

I don't want to see Manny go either, but the Orioles need to get as much as they can for him if they can't keep him now.
