I don't think Richards/Anderson for Sanchez/Stanek was a loss. Gotta wait on Sanchez to be sure but that one doesn't seem to be the usual run away victory for the Rays. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SilverBullet 2,712 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Bro they acquire this guy on the morning that pitchers are supposed to report? I bet you he's in shambles right now trying to reroute his GPS to Jupiter! 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SilverBullet 2,712 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 After what seemed like baby steps to revamping this bullpen at the beginning of the offseason all of a sudden it's an intensely reloaded bullpen, almost overloaded, with big but good decisions still to be made. Excellent work Kim! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SilverBullet 2,712 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 This is a very Rays trade, getting the most out of a guy for one season and then trading him while his value is high but I don't think this is a bad gamble from the Marlins... not every guy that the Rays trade high on becomes a complete bust, the Marlins must think this guy is good enough to keep it going and contribute in Miami. I like the move, good gamble. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But yes, agreed... and oddly excited how it really picked up in the last week or so. Floro and Curtiss suddenly kicked the whole bullpen up a notch and it's awesome. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SilverBullet 2,712 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 The Rays made another trade this morning too. Lol pitchers and catchers report and suddenly the Rays are like nah I actually don't like this team anymore. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Curtiss is going to walk into Roger Dean with a huge beer belly. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SonOfJack 2,593 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I keep wanting to change his name to John Curtis. It is like someone's keyboard was broken and the s entered twice while typing his name. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SilverBullet 2,712 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 One more point: I wanted Kintzler back because this bullpen didn't need key subtractions and to a lesser extent Boxberger for the same reason... but if the additions/replacements are Floro and Curtiss then ultimately we likely did upgrade since the new guys are younger and more sustainable in 2021. So basically, the point we've been trying to make to certain people here, gotta wait until the offseason fully plays out to see how the finished product looks, and even then, the finished product is never truly finished. But I'm very happy with how this offseason bullpen revamping ended up. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
