[CameronCrazy06]

It wasn't on the top of the section so I didn't see it lol

 

[Mexi]

I thought for sure theyd push harder for him
But eh its ok

I think the dodgers are going to continue to be frustrated and sign heyward tho

I dont think the cubs are going to sign him now after zobrist

[Giantmetfan07]

I knew the Mets were going to do this. I tried to prepare myself....

 

[Mexi]

Wonder who they get now lol
Daniel Murphy?! LOL!

 

[cruzg24]

How do the Mets go back to Daniel Murphy and say; "Hey, we wanted you all along!"

Murphy is still a good player but not for more than 3 years.

The same way that all the other teams that wanted Ben Zobrist who end up calling him will do.

Looks like Neil Walker is headed to the Mets anyways

Conflicted here. Indians definitely need power, but I'm afraid he's a product of a hitter friendly ballpark, and his walk rate took a hit last season. Other upside is we probably could get a deal done with prospects and hold onto Salazar.

Todd's from 10 minutes away from where I live in NJ now. Everyone loves him here

 

[elcheato]

So if he under performs you could break his legs for me? 

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Who did you guys have at 3B last year, Chisenhall?

 

[elcheato]

Chisenhall moved to RF mid-season, and actually graded out as the best defensive RF in the league during that period. Started to hit a little too.
 
We had some rookie defensive specialist playing 3rd base in the second half of last year, couldn't hit for shit. The Todd Father would definitely be a massive upgrade. His home/road splits are bad though. 

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Are you using the same defensive metrics there that claim Adam Jones is below average

 

[elcheato]

who 

 

[elcheato]

my eyes told me Chisenhall was a beast in RF, as well 

 

[Phil The Thrill]

Apparently Chris Davis wants $200 million for 8 years. The last half of that will be such a burden on the Orioles.
