If they spent on the wrong players, then no, but you can't win if you don't play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joc had a 0.6 WAR. And he was about equivalent to, if not better, than Joc in just about every offensive category.

romad1 Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 This will shake up the team. I hope to higher and higher levels of production and professionalism. "If Matt Shepherd can be fired, any of us can lose our jobs! " 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edman85 Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Zach Logue declared free agency. He was outrighted for the second time earlier this year, so he's eligible to do so and get a head start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why "well, name your own list of names from this awful crop of free agents" is a valid response to the fact that the ones listed are poor fits on the roster as it stands now.

RatkoVarda Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Pederson is a horrible fit because he's primarily a DH; excellent strawman to use to explain why they should not spend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1984Echoes Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 2 hours ago, Toddwert said: you can nitpick any player to death... They SHOULD be nitpicked to death. Otherwise, the team makes a STUPID signing like Jordan Zimmerman, or Javier Baez. I'm not interested in the team making more stupid signings. You are? In fact, I am hoping that Harris is a guy that avoids dumb decisions like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
