My proposal was that the one round bump is prior to next season. So keeping guys in the short season only carries half the ?penalty.?

But I guess it really doesn?t matter which year the one round thing is enacted.

I propose a one year tweak to keepers. Since this is a half assed season which might not even go all the way how about our keepers for 2021 only move up one round instead of two?

BUMP.
I'm pretty sure Moncada's going to give my entire team the 'Rona.

Even I don't stick up for myself in the comments.

Or read them, actually.

Goddamn this sucks.  Best wishes to all the remaining Flanns out there, and to all of us.

Time to go drink.

I gotta be honest I really don't get the Brewers giving that contract to Lorenzo Cain just to sit pat and not sign any of the three starters (Lynn, Arrieta, Cobb) who signed perfectly reasonable deals. Shit they could have added all three and ranked 16th in payroll, 60 million below the tax.

Their current projected rotation:
Chase Anderson
Zach Davies
Jhoulys Chacin
Brent Suter
Wade Miley

Anderson is coming off a career year that blew anything he'd ever done on any level out of the water, Davies is average at best and probably over-achieved to get to a 3.90 ERA last year (had a 4.22 FIP). Chacin is mediocre, Suter is a lefty who throws 85 and nobody is sure how long he can be effective doing that. Miley is a dumpster fire. Jimmy Nelson had a career year than tore his labrum, an injury that has destroyed countless pitchers, and while he may be back by July there's no telling if he'd have done what he did last year again even if he was healthy, let alone after nearly a year off with a shoulder injury.

I guess I could see them sitting tight and trying to build internally with their prospects and stuff if they hadn't gone and committed 80 million to a 31 year old CF. Really weird to potentially waste Cain's best years by not solidifying the rotation when they had a chance.

I, for one, am completely fine with every team in the NL Central that isn't the Chicago Cubs not having their shit together.

Oh I have no issue with them being cheapskates, it's just really hard to figure out why they half-assed it in the perfect offseason to, like, three-quarter ass it and land a bunch of good players.

I can't wait to see Captain Valtrex play first base.  He was literally the worst defensive third baseman in baseball history.  But I'm sure he'll be just fine at the other corner.
