the mantid may be broken, oh well. who is this gigantic stud left-hander that is dominating the crap out of everyone?

sys · « **Reply #65603 on:** August 09, 2016, 10:02:10 PM »

the mantid is still a bit of a stud too, it seems.

it may be an insect that only impacts offense.

Yea it's not a defense mantis

Volkie has allowed a .390 Ave and allowed 37 base runners last 17.0 Innings (3 starts). Teams probably happy they didn't trade for this.

But Strohm got 8 swing and misses on 30 pitches. That's pretty salty

I'm ready to not extend any more players. Let Escobar walk this year, let moose and Cain and Hos walk next year. Go forward with just Gordon/Salvy and young guns and see what it gets us.

if they let moose, cain, and escobar walk, they need to sign Hosmer and find another DITR outfielder and DH

I'm looking at 2018 mocat! Dyson will be long gone by then.

It bothers me watching suck town become suck town. I don't want to watch that happen to Cain too. Let him become suck town in Texas or something

ok i fixed it

the #1 most important person to sign to a long term deal is dick duffy. this fact is inarguable.

i don't know, i think we could trade him and get a nice piece to shore up the rotation

wetwillie · « **Reply #65614 on:** August 10, 2016, 10:37:23 AM »

i feel like he is too expensive now.

not if you go by my plan to let the rest of the team walk and start from scratch with a core of Duffy/Strahm

Do you think 5 years 90 million would get it done?

i bet duff could get 5 for 110 in this current market but i really have no idea

wetwillie · « **Reply #65620 on:** August 10, 2016, 10:49:43 AM »

At those prices I think we trade him.
