Bacon Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 He's not the greatest in-game manager. Not even a particularly good one, necessarily. But he is a great manager of people and clubhouses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mammajamma Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 From what I read about Barley is he's very fast (over 30 steals this season), but doesn't "have power". So hitting a bomb in his first game here is a good sign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a heist and a half--another reason I trust Rizzo in the trade market. Of all the players he's dealt, only one has been any good: Giolito. And even then, he's good, but not a world beater, "generational talent". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PleaseBlitz Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Would be interesting to do a top 10 (and bottom 10) Rizzo decisions.   Off the top of my head, I'd say backing up the truck for Max Scherzer is high on the list, just b/c Max far exceeded reasonable expectations. The Ross/Turner trade is way up there. Signing Soto and then calling him up so early is also way up there. Howie Kendrick for McKenzie Mills.   I'd also be interested to see what people think of "The Strasburg Shutdown", or if it is even still controversial (I don't think it is). Giolito for Eaton is probably the most controversial. One side is "Gio is the much more valuable player overall" and the other side is "Eaton was instrumental in the Cship."  1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superozman Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Crazy changes for the Nationals this year! Solid stockpile - but as an outsider, what am I missing on why Trea Turner was traded? That was CRAZY to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the MLB you can literally buy a championship.  Why?  Because so much of it is individual brilliance.  Yeah great clubhouse attitude is great but quite simply if you stack the squad and no one rattles the cage you can get to the WS.  It’s not like other sports where other elements come into play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
