MLB Chatter Thread

That's uber tempting, but I think I'd pass. Our offense is pretty loaded already and we have a top ten MLB prospect named Wyatt Langford who could make the team right out of spring training - he's as good a prospect, if not better than Evan Carter.
We're talking 30+ HRs and .300 batting average potential.
Let's focus on re-signing Jordan Montgomery and acquiring 2-3 quality relievers. I'm good to even let Mitch Garver leave.

You definitely have to decide if you want 1 or 2 signings or a bit more. I really don't know which way to go. I know all about Langford but just because he is hitting in the minors it doesn't mean it will translate to the majors. We got really lucky with Carter but I don't want to just expect it from Langford.

Oh and I want to resign Garver but he probably wants to catch day to day. So I guess that answers my question from above. Prefer multiple solid signings over the big splash. Give me Garver and Monty to start off with. Throw in Hader and Snell.
 
Even the coaches are leaving the Yankees.
 
David Ross is out as the Cubs manager.

Craig Counsell jumps from the Brewers job to the Cubs job.

That's the 2nd intra-division managerial change we've seen this offseason. Melvin jumped from the Padres to the Giants not too long ago.
 
Getting kind of nervous. Bowden is the latest pundit saying the Rangers are going to land Ohtani. Want the player. Don't want to lose what it's going to cost to sign him.

If it costs Garcia, hell to the no.

He's a FA and there's no payroll in baseball. Spend away.

There is a luxury tax threshold and fines that go with it. They aren't just going to sign him and keep going. There will be guys let go and areas not improved for a signing of that caliber.

If I'm reading it correctly I believe the Rangers right now are 55 million under the threshold. That would leave not much to improve the bullpen and starting pitching.
 
 


They are all jumping ship!!!
 
The Angels actually did it. Hired Ron Washington.
 
Will just leave this here.....
