It was always duds. They literally stripped their roster down to make to make this happen. Sucks tho

The Battery money machine go brrrrrrrrrrr though.

 

[zjcvols]

No, no, no. We can easily afford him. AA just won’t actually negotiate a contract

 

[Weezy]

Dude won't pitch for two years. That's crazy for a very good DH.

I just feel like comparing names on the two rosters, our 1-9 is better.

 

[TBrown]

On the bright side, we should only be 17 more marginal trades away from a mop up bullpen arm and a bench piece better than adrianza

Stassi woulda been a hell of a backup to Wild Bill tho I’m not gonna lie

AA wouldn't give Freddie Freeman, an 11 year vet who posted a 145 wRC+ over the past six years and just won a World Series where he posted an over 1.000 OPS in same postseason, a sixth year because it didn't fit HIS parameters of a contract. He won't take risks because he got burned in Toronto. And while complaining about a baseball team that has won 96 games per year (full season) since he took over with a World Series seems stupid in theory, this whole "I won't take risks or bend my parameters on contracts for long term flexibility" in today's market is becoming a very outdated mindset that is going to cost us.

The place hes screwing up though is he got burned on trades.
Trading Syndergaard away.
Trading for Reyes, Dickey, and Burhele. Hes kinda doing the same thing .
