BAWS

PITCHERS AND CATCHERS REPORT TOMORROW

Hoohoo- I think you’re the one that usually does spring training thread? If not, I can just update this one if that’s easier. Regardless, if someone does start a new one...I updated this OP with a summary of all offseason moves and a chart showing contract situation for players on the 40man so you’re welcome to steal that


Here’s Mcfaggarts prediction for opening day 25 man

Gunslinger has done it the last two years. I'll let him set the tone for another 100+ win season. Community leadership on fine display.

Surprised Tony Kemp gets left off. I thought he proved himself pretty useful last year. Is it worth keeping Jake's terrible bat around for occasional late in defense? Worth noting Jake is out of options so there's no sending him down this year.

Also idk wtf is wrong with my imgur link in OP. When I preview post it shows the image but when I submit it, it only shows a link

If someone knows a better way to host it post the link and I’ll edit OP. I’ll try and figure it out later if not

I'd love to see the Astros make an attempt to keep Verlander around for a few more seasons.

Gerrit Cole I figure is going to be too expensive.

Looking at those salary numbers and I bet they would love to have that Reddick contract off the books.

I would guess they tried to move him this offseason and failed

Do want. Think he'd do 2 years $40 million?


Agree on Cole. If he does anything close repeating last years success, hes going to be one of the most heavily pursued pitchers on the market and get a huge contract. Chris Sale is also a free agent but I don't see the Red Sox letting him get away.

Gotta figure the Yankees will be ready to throw the bank at Cole. They drafted him in the past, were pursuing him in a trade last year and they'll have the money to throw at a frontline starter to pair with Sev.

Depends on this season... but at his age I wouldn't be surprised if he'd do less than that, if he really wants to finish in Houston.

Reddick was a steal in 2017.

He made up for it last year.

Keuchel would have to settle for a sweetheart deal, which ain't happening.

Chirinos for McCann
Diaz and Brantley for Gonzalez
Miley for Keuchel

So far, White/Brantley for Gattis

Pretty straightforward the way I see it.

Only thing really left is Bumgarner at the trade deadline.
