StLunatic88 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 SO either we just burned $2m, or we are looking at a 20g starter for $6m or a solid reliever for $5m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, the addition of Munoz makes him a little unnecessary. I will miss his grinder mentality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'll have a glut of guys competing for the middle innings this offseason. Bowman should have been low on that list. Also we lost Pena, I'm not sure anyone posted it. If Kelly isn't the backup this year, I'm going to be angry. He needs to get some actual playing time too. If he doesn't, I think we'll have wasted a really solid prospect.

If they did or didnt know about Knizer, they should have moved Kelly. Its asset management. He was the highest rated Catching prospect in the minors (for most) and his value was never going to be higher. The MINUTE you knew that you were committing to Yadi for another 3 years, and you werent going to make him play some 1B, you should have flipped Kelly for the most you could have. We did great jobs of that with prospects in the past, but for some reason we just sat on Kelly. And now he doesnt hold even half the value he used to. Those are the type of things Mo & Co. have done lately that piss me off, not necessarily missing on guys like Stanton or Price 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when you expand that into most of the BFIB they still think its Mo's fault. The one that may have some merit is choosing to trade for Ozuna over Yelich. I still side with Mo on his move, because of the arm and a leg that it would have cost us to get Yelich, but I can understand that argument. To me its not getting any value for Kelly, Gyorko, Carpenter, J Martinez, Lynn, Oh, Rosenthal, etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
