@GrantPaulsen@federalbaseball They will sell at deadline and finish around 70 wins. Lerners will say they’re still “a year away” from spending and we’ll be in the exact spot next year. Our only hope is for a hard floor in the new CBA which would force them to spend a ton based on next years projected payroll
Absolutely love this pick for the Washington Nationals. Luke Williams is a freakshow. Insane twitch. Insane athleticism. 70 arm strength. 70 runner. Sneaky bat speed from a small frame. Think he's a CF. If the bat plays, could be a truly dynamic player.
Assuming Burress is off the board at 11, final wish list for me:
1. Tyler Bell
2. Jared Grindlinger
3. Chris Hacopian
Will be hard to top last years class, excited to see how this front office attacks the board.
I respect the analytic thought process trying to play matchups but wtf are we doing. Ribalta or Beeter for the 9th and live with the results dude. You don’t have a single lefty that can get a lefty hitter out - period.
7 games under .500 against the NL East
9 games over .500 against all other divisions.
This team plays completely different ball against non NLE teams. If they can figure out how to play .500 ball against the division they will be right there for a WC spot
Bring on the lockout can’t take another year watching this dollar menu bullpen blow it every single night. Wake me up in ‘28 when the pitching will finally be ready
@GrantPaulsen@NationalsSource Poulin Palmquist Parker Lovelady. What a combo! Lerners didn’t even have to go out and spend big on a 1B/SP. They could’ve added another $10-$20M to the roster for bullpen signings and we would be comfortably in the WC spot had they done so. 29th in active payroll in mlb - 29th!
