We might have to--an established manager wouldn't come here--and my not anyway. I'm fine with someone like Beltran, who we pay for several years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PF Chang Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 I wanted to trade Harper last year because I didn't think he would re-sign here. I don't want to trade Rendon unless he makes it clear he won't re-sign. Don't think we know for sure what was offered for Harper last year, but from what I remember it wasn't much because of the upcoming free agency. I think Rendon is a better player but what would we get for him? He's 28, not too old to fit into a rebuild. Since 2017 he's a .300+ average, .900+ OPS guy who plays great defense at 3rd. Pay the man. Trade everyone else but the young guys and Corbin. To get to 90 wins we need to play at a 100+ win pace, this isn't a 100+ win team even with perfect health. Trading Scherzer is incredibly depressing but he's valuable. Same with Strasburg though I don't know how the 2019/2020 opt outs affect his trade value. Doolittle. Move any of the other bullpen guys for literally anything. Maybe keep Eaton because he's cheap and with the recent injury history I'm not sure how valuable he is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRobi21 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) Soto takes ground balls at 1B during BP. I wonder if that's his position in the future. So many balls in the OF that should have been caught, but weren't. Annnnnd L. Edited May 23, 2019 by CRobi21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGoodBits Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Perfect example of “what the hell can Davey do.” Tries to piece together an 8th inning. Makes the right move to put in Doolittle for the 4 run save. Still loses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StillUnknown Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 all they gotta do is keep it real. first thing you do is make a call on Rizzo. If he's out, find his replacement have whoever is the GM dismiss Martinez and put anybody who has value up for trade minus Soto & Robles. start the rebuild, do it right, pain be damned. hopefully in 2 years, we're back ready to compete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinfan2k Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I know Harper didn't have the greatest year last year but he had swagger and showed emotion. These players include Rendon dont have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was surprised FP didn’t say something about it because he was commenting about how pissed Ross looked. 56 minutes ago, bcl05 said: This team is more painful than the Redskins. Pain is completely derived from one source: high expectations. Once you divorce yourself from expectations, DC sports become way easier to watch. The highs aren’t as high, but the lows also aren’t nearly as low. And there are a goddamn lotta lows in DC sports. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearrock Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Martinez lost Boswell in the morning's column. When you lose Boswell, it's probably a good sign that there's no one left in your corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
