@DJMUtah @TooMuchMortons_ You should unless you are keeping both Cease and King long term. Its the difference between a 1st and 4th round draft pick.

@tyler21012 A 2nd is worth about 1.5 million and a 3rd and 6th is worth about 1.1. So its like a 3rd and 4th is equal to 1 2nd

@SergioMQuintero @Flibz2 Problem is that moving Cease does nothing anymore. Would have to move Cease and Suarez just to get 5 million under. All while losing a 2nd round pick.

@KevinKeneely1 Going undersized at center is not the move.

@SanPedroAce @brownsonjacob2 That would be a 90th percentile outcome. Ha Seong Kim had the significantly better offensive profile and had a .620 ops. Its a .200 BA .500-.600ops profile.

@SanPedroAce @brownsonjacob2 Hes worse than Outman last year offensively. This isn't slightly below league average. Its 60-70 wRC+

@Bnicklaus7 @mookieszn1 For me the lack of proximity was a benefit. The Dodgers face a very real 40 man crunch and this gave them added flexibility.

@Bnicklaus7 @mookieszn1 Interesting grade on the Lux deal. Do you think Lux is likely to perform similar to his 2nd half self for the remainder of his contract? I have that trade at an A. I was surprised we could get a 1st round comp pick and Sirota.

@Klein25 We have the exact outcomes. Wait for Ohtani and lose a 2nd and 5th or Smith and 2+ top 100 prospects. Betts without an extension would have been a terrible deal as well.

@dodgers_burner @Klein25 Trading for Ohtani would have been a disaster. Better to get him for a 2nd, 5th, and just money

@lshelton1121 @rich_roberts The Padres have been media darlings since 2020. Compare the coverage they get to that of the Dbacks.

@tyler21012 Rojas will play against LHP. Pages will platoon with Conforto.

@tyler21012 Yes but one will get the most time there. It will be one of those 3

@tyler21012 Its Kike, Kim, or CT as our starting 2B. Who are you picking?

@tyler21012 We know Mookie is the starting SS and Edman is going to be in CF. Why are you still fighting that? Mookie is the SS

@tyler21012 Edman is the starting CF, Betts is starting at SS, and Kike has no business starting anywhere. He is specifically for the playoffs.

@tyler21012 Its pretty obvious. Its called the entire regular season. CT should be the starting 2B. Kike is terrible in the regular season

@tyler21012 I could point to how you can narrow to the 15th where his season wRC+ would be 93. Which looks closer to his 3 year average. Hes not a 70 wRC+ player
