Guest Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Gibson was great until his last 3 or 4 starts. If he returns to his April-June form, Phils got a LOT better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Will miss Straw, he really blossomed this season at the plate, always been nice in the field and on the bases. Good get for the Guardians. Maton seems OK, probably my least favorite of their bullpen additions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Littleronin Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Crazy trade deadline large market teams shedding players left and right and the dead last in the AA ball D-Backs traded Escobar and (checks notes) Joakim Soria. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Strange you draft him without some due diligence. Sucks for Rocker though since he is stuck in limbo until next year. Rocket should sue for his free agency 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 The Astros/Giants games have both been highly entertaining. Yesterday was wild with how the homers were just floating out left and right.

Guest Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 It sounds like the Mets completely removed their offer. If the player wouldn’t accept at least the slot price, I think it makes sense to return them to the draft pool for the next year, but if the team decides not to make an offer for whatever reason the player should immediately be made an undrafted free agent.

But it is the Mets so could just be lol Mets. From my understanding, the Mets never tendered an offer to Rocker. The general understanding is that Rocker wanted $6M which the Mets budgeted for. Mets never even tried to low ball him based on his medical. Due to how the draft works, Mets will now get the 11th pick in 2022 draft which seems crazy to me while Rocker has to sit out a year. With the current baseball eligibility, dude won’t be a free agent until he is 40. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the current baseball eligibility, dude won’t be a free agent until he is 40. Lets not exaggerate, if he's drafted next year at 22, the worst case scenario is the team could keep him in the minors for 6 years and then 6 years of major league service time would have him be a free agent at 34. Still not great but if he spends 6 years in the minors he was either injured or ineffective most of the time. An advanced college arm shouldn't spend more than 2 years in the minors so realistically he'd be a free agent at 30. If the Mets made no serious attempt to negotiate though, they should definitely be penalized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
