Well, it is true. He is high on Phillies' wish list Good. Good. Spend big on Corbin and Machado. Leave Bryce alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah trade a guy who when he was healthy was top-5 in baseball in every meaningful pitching statistic. Is 26. Has the best pure stuff in baseball history. Yeah no that's totally a great idea.

I can't imagine 1 year of MadBum, coming off 2 straight injury-shortened seasons, costs all that much. Not to mention significantly diminished fastball velo, a 4 seamer that has gotten pounded to the tune of nearly a 900 ops, career worst k rate and walk rate last year. Take what you can get. If the deal involves one legit prospect, I'm in. My preference would be to send him to the braves along with Watson or Smith. Really like their prospect pool.

flyguy1609 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports that in addition to starter Patrick Corbin, reliever Andrew Miller is at the top of the Phillies' pitching wish list. It's not a surprise, as the Phillies are essentially in on every top free agent. Miller missed time with knee, hamstring, and shoulder injuries this past season while posting a mediocre 4.24 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 45/16 K/BB ratio in 34 innings, but that doesn't appear to be having any impact on his market. If healthy, he's capable of being a huge difference-maker in a late-inning role for any contender. Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports hears that the Rangers and Jesse Chavez have agreed to a two-year contract in the range of $8 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could work. MadBum isn't what he once was but he'll come significantly cheaper than Thor or deGrom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are insane lol If the analytic guys are all going to look at those stats and think he is in decline, then I doubt the Giants get what they are looking for right now. I dont anticipate him being moved this offseason. Its more likely we keep the band together for the early part of the season, then unload the bullpen and possibly Bum at the deadline, especially if he has a bounce back season. I think if a team like houston loses a guy like verlander for example, or if the yankees rotation is really terrible, and Bum is Bum, then we would be able to get a lot more for him than we could right now. Hes not a power pitcher, and despite all of the talk about the velo decline, I am pretty confident that he will pitch for another 10 years. The release is easy on the arm and is deceiving and hes got the right build/mindset to pitch through his 40s. Just a hunch. (I wish this was 50 years ago and bum could play 1st base on the days he doesnt pitch) @ramssuperbowl99 you of all people should appreciate an old school junk yard dog who doesn't take crap from anyone. Nothing like a BUM BIG FLY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramssuperbowl99 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Pitcher A: 129.2 IP, 7.57 K/9, 2.98 BB/9, 4.59 (K-BB)/9, 0.97 HR/9, 0.274 BABIP, 87.8 mph average exit velocity, 42.7 GB%, 3.26 ERA, 3.99 FIP, 4.32 xFIP, 1.4 WAR Pitcher B: 141 IP, 8.68 K/9, 3.41 BB/9, 5.25 (K-BB)/9, 1.21 HR/9, 0.312 BABIP, 87.9 mph average exit velocity, 43.1 GB%, 4.09 ERA, 4.24 FIP, 4.23 xFIP, 1.7 WAR Pitcher A doesn't get as many strikeouts, even when correcting for a slightly lower walk rate, and the result of the low ERA had more to due with the BABIP that was totally unsupported by any weak contact generating skills. Pitcher A is obviously Bumgarner. Pitcher B is Junior Guerra, who is not good, but compares pretty favorably here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyguy1609 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Free agent center fielder A.J. Pollock is attracting plenty of interest, but he’s looking for close to Lorenzo Cain’s 5-year, $80 million deal with #Brewers in early talks with suitors.
