January 11, 20197 yr so Doyers are out? Depends which of Rosenthal's personalities you believe. One said no chance they won't still try for JT. Other one said this could mean no JT.
January 11, 20197 yr Of course it's still possible they get JT but also obviously lessens the need. It's less of an urgency now for the Dodgers so if anything this gives them more reason to not give in to the Marlins demands.

If a team that's competing for a World Series wants to keep that instead of a good shot at 5+ WAR, then okay, enjoy.

Feels like everyone complaining about the Marlins high price tag doesn't understand things like this. JT isn't any dime a dozen catcher and adding him to a playoff contender might really make a huge difference between winning a championship or not.
January 12, 20197 yr So wait, according to Dan O'Dawd the Astros have actually offered us Tucker and Bukauskas? Isn't that what we were hoping for? Are we waiting for someone to top that? Braves are talking to AJ Pollock and seem poised to sign him to a 5yr / 80M deal. Maybe we're hoping the Braves cough up Acuna for him and they replace Acuna with Pollock? Maybe Marlins actually send something back along with JT for him? Some interesting scenarios. But I thought that if the Marlins got offered Tucker plus a solid pitcher like Bukauskas it would've been accepted. Told you they wanted much more. But no, ole Das is full of shit.

January 12, 20197 yr My speculation on this so far: Marlins FO has concluded they most likely got sodomized on Yelich deal and they have unanimously vowed to not have that happen with JT.

January 12, 20197 yr You have been full of shit since for years now Ok. Still das was accurate. Sorry boys.
January 12, 20197 yr Honestly it’s not that bad a gamble by the Dodgers. See what happens through June. You don’t need to upgrade at catcher to win the division. Adjust if needed at the deadline. Sound strategy. Dodgers will probably push more for an Indian starter now.
January 12, 20197 yr Dodgers will probably push more for an Indian starter now. Sir, please be more appropriate on your wording. Dodgers will probably push more for an (Indian) starter now. See the difference? What you said is racist, what I said was not.
