Also, a buddy in my Friday game has season tickets to the cards here in Springfield, said Reyes was pretty good the other night. Hope to get to catch a start or two if possible.

What's the timeline with Reyes?

What is this team's greatest strength? Starting pitching.

Why would you pay a significant price to bolster the team's greatest strength when there are so many other glaring weaknesses, like 1B and a legitimate LH bench bat.

We still need another LH reliever, as Scroate isn't trustworthy and Siegrist has a bad reverse platoon split. Theoretically, they could do that with Cooney/Lyons, but I doubt that Elder Choate gets bumped.

Lynn, Lackey, Martinez, Garcia, Wacha


If healthy, Lynn, Lackey and Garcia will certainly start in the postseason. If the org has a brain in their heads they'd start Martinez as the #2 or #3, but we'll see.

So you have to ask yourself this from a playoff perspective: what is the marginal value between David Price and Jaime Garcia/Carlos Martinez? Is it likely to make more of a difference than having a legitimate 1B or a LHR who can actually be trusted against lefties?

I don't think so. For other teams, sure, but not this one.

I don't necessarily disagree, but I'm not sure there's a 1st baseman out there or one that's available. A lhr yes, easily.

The price inquisition was more so for a long term situation but he's a bit older than I had thought

It still doesn't make sense to add him, even for long term purposes. He'll cost a fortune, and someone posted our projected rotation for the next few years, and we simply don't need him. Pay Carlos and/or Wacha instead.

Yeah, but I don't necessarily see the long term staff that strong.

Wacha and Carlos you hope are your 1 and 2 stoppers but Lynn is probably gone when that deal is up, lackey is aged, I don't think you can rely of Jaime much etc and while Reyes has a monster upside, tinstapp applies there.
