Some writers have too much time on their hands.

Cool. Stanton for Kershaw, even up!!!
Last rumor down here was that Harper will end up with the Cubbies to play with his Las Vegas pal, Kris Bryant.

Interesting, verrrrry interesting. I'd rather see the Nats keep Harper, but that appears increasingly unlikely, sadly. Harper is younger than Stanton and a lefty, so there's that. But Stanton is cheaper than Harper is going to be. And how long would the contract have to be? Would 10/$500M cut it?

Cole isn't a JAG...he's a legit guy with legit power stuff and worth the gamble to acquire...he's not a stud, but he could be-- is it worth losing clint frazier to see if it happens? I say no, but I admit its worth seeing... andujar--cmon boys, stop with this guy already. the Yankees are going the Machado route in 10.5 months, so...had Toddfather for a year and then Manny Corbin is a JAG and will always be a JAG Friar has never heard of Patrick Corbin until the past few weeks. It's because he blows! 2 years ago he went 5-13 with a 5.15 ERA and gave up 26Hrs in 155 innings. That's not even JAG level. rags compared him previously to Jaime Garcia II, and that sound about right. They both throw a baseball with their left hand, and they are both mediocre at best. If the DBax are willing to take Ellsbury for him, then fine. But guess what...? Never gonna happen.

sorry if you find this uninteresting, yogi...but this is the way it rolls in the offseason. Not much else to talk about, really. And...it's fun to make pretend deals with pretend money...which is all this is!

Some writers have too much time on their hands. Writer? Punk kid who typically reports garbage. Few talented seasoned writers left in sports.

I don't at all find it " uninteresting" Friar, been through a half century of off seasons so I know how this works...I just find it taxing. And I'll survive the suspense.
