They should throw a stadium full of money at Kershaw and Corbin if you ask me. I honestly don't want Kershaw. He's going to cost $allofit and the chronic back issues scare me. But yes, if things keep up like they are, I hope they go hard after pitching this offseason. Lot of baseball left, though.

They should throw a stadium full of money at Kershaw and Corbin if you ask me. Yes, a year ago I was all in on Machado, but Didi turning into prime A-rod, as well as having 5-6 great, cheap, cost controlled bats. This trade deadline they are almost certainly going to be all in on the best pitcher who is on the market. Frazier still is completely unnecessary, especially with Florial looking so good in the minors. I still think Fullmer is going to end up on the Yanks come the trade deadline. Something like Frazier/Chance Adams/a lesser prospect seems like a good thing to trade for his 4 years of control. I'm not so sure that Kershaw is the best target, but Corbin seems like an obvious target for the Yankees. A Severino/Corbin/Tanaka/Fullmer/Gray rotation seems like what we could be looking at next year.

I like Corbin, I'd gladly take him. Kershaw doesn't fit what they are trying to do (save money) and lol if you think the Dodgers will ever let him leave ever

Even after they sign Didi. They won't need to worry about saving money and I'm not here for any of these "doesn't fit" takes when you're talking about the the best pitcher of the generation in his prime. They might not have a shot at him but they will DEFINITELY try.

Unless he gets injured this season he's gonna be a yankee in 19. mcmagic fucked around with this message at 17:21 on Apr 30, 2018 |

Fulmer, guys. (I'm also not huge on him, low K-rates and good but not elite GB% are a worrying combo for Yankee Stadium.) (Also I would like to see Florial play a full season above A-ball before we're replacing Frazier on the depth chart.)

I don't necessarily not want Fulmer, but I worry how his style will work out in the AL East. His SIERA has been above 4 all three seasons in Detroit, and his xFIP is also closer to 4 than 3 overall. I don't think he's bad, I just don't know how he'd fare in NY with our Little rear end Park.

I've never seen a guy strike out on more borderline 3-2 pitches than Judge.

mcmagic posted:He plays in the grand canyon. Fulmer’s got a career 0.90 HR/9 away from Comerica Park (0.78 at home) in ~30 more innings pitched, which would have still been 4th in all of baseball last year.

Do we actually want to trade Frazier when Gardner is like 90 years old? I guess if you think you are one arm away from winning the world series this year you have to do it.

I'd be fine with signing Hicks long term, personally, as I get the feeling he's flying relatively under the radar and wouldn't command some huge contract. The corners are accounted for so an outfield of Stanton, Judge, Hicks in center and Gardner/Ellsbury (ugh) spelling them sounds pretty great. Pitching seems like the more pressing need.

yeah, it seems a bit premature to dismiss Frazier as a non-integral piece going forward. Gardner is probably not coming back next year even though he's a big piece of the clubhouse culture (bad start nonwithstanding); personally I feel that Ellsbury won't play at all this year unless they all get banged up beyond recognition

Even with gardy being old as gently caress, you have Stanton/Hicks/Judge/Ellsbury under contract until at least 2020 with Florial waiting in the wings before that. Frazier is ready now, and the only way that can actually make use of him is to trade him for something they can actually use.

Ahh Charlie Morton. The career number 6 starter who magically at 32 years old started throwing 99 MPH. I'm sure thats 100% legit.

Yeah, his problem of late has been that once things start to go bad the wheels come off and he falls apart. Its cautiously reassuring to see him get himself into trouble and then pitch his way out of that. Not being able to do that is his biggest problem.
