Mayo is gonna hit .179 with 20 HRs and 50 RBI lol. Gunnar cant buy a hit. God this team is awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Remember, Mayo was one of Elias' coveted prospects. An untouchable who was off limits when it came to trade talks. Dismantle this fucking team from top to bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago If it weren't for pitchers making awful mistakes, Mayo wouldn't be cranking the occasional long HRs. His swing has more holes than a goddamn golf course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAPE Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago There are only 3 teams with a worse record in the shitty ass AL. Still a chance tho, so lets be buyers at the deadline! NFL preseason football just a few weeks away. Lets go Ravens! (Please find a center) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maestrobjwa Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago We don't need a rebuild. The talent is not the problem here...the organizational system is. There are reports of similar issues in the minors too. Not talent, but...philosophy. Gunnar, Holliday, Adley, Basallo...they would all do well elsewhere almost immediately and we'd all be wondering ehy they couldn't do that here. This is why a full tear-down would be a big mistake imo--why do another torturous 3-5 years when there is another option that could fix things in a year or two? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think all these "core" players are gonna be here in 2-3 years? Basallo? probably. They made the investment. I wouldn't put my money on the rest, for multiple reasons. You don't want to accept it, but a rebuild is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They made the investment. I wouldn't put my money on the rest, for multiple reasons. You don't want to accept it, but a rebuild is needed. You know why I don't believe it's needed? Because 3-4 more years of losing is the nuclear option--and you don't have to do that to turn this around. You need to fire Elias/Sig and give this org a new philosophy. Talent-wise, It is not broken beyond repair like it was in 2018. Why blow it up and go through that when you have another option to turn it around sooner? Holliday will be here. Gunnar is a maybe (his price got lower this year that's for sure). Adley isn't going anywhere, imo. We had a fire sale last year, did we not? Only thing to sell this year is Ward and maybe Cowser, Kittredge? Definitely not getting rid of Bradish or Baz. Rogers perhaps...but it's really not a lot worth selling.

His contract is up next year and they invested big money in Basallo. Come on dude. Holliday is unproven. Gunnar has been bad this season but Boras is his agent. He is gone. Dodger or Yankee guaranteed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodger or Yankee guaranteed. Says who? They extended Basallo...and Adley is not gonna completely break the bank. And the thing with the Basallo deal...they basically bought out the arb years and added on a couple. It was an investment but not one that would preclude them from signing Adley as well. And Adley has value with a pitching staff that Basallo doesn't. There is room for both--and this ownership group seems to want to spend more. Holliday is unproven...so why in the world would you sell him right now? You don't know what you have in him yet. He is your 1:1--no way you sell him at age 22. Gunnar is the only one where you may have a case. But here's the thing: To get Yankee or Dodger money he is gonna have to play a lot better. There will be no bidding war right now. And as far as selling him this year... do we really get max value in prospects? Nah. Now if he plays like an MVP next year, and we still suck, then maybe you do it then.
