Not bad actually. He gets to be reunited with Maddon. That team is gonna be loaded

4/56 for Zobrist and he rejected several higher offers

Would guess Moustakas would hit 2 in that lineup rather than 7.

If Cain/Hosmer/Morales/Moustakas repeat their 2015 seasons (or improve), it looks much different than that. I'd put it higher.

If this offense is league average, they'll win 90+ again unless the pitching just collapses.

Do we play Cubs next year in Kauffman?

I thought they'd toyed with moving Cuthbert to the OF before. I'm all for that... I think he's going to be good. I thought his bat looked like it belonged last year.

We just played them this year in interleague, so we won't play them again for 3 years.

Thanks BZ.

It was an incredible ride.

Well, scratch Zobrist off the list. Cubs

As a Chicago resident and the Cubs being my "NL" team since I was a kid - WGN brainwashed me, this is about the least depressing scenario if you were forced to pick somewhere and it couldn't be back with the Royals.

It does completely suck. GORDON especially, even though Zobrist really is a GD embodiment of a Swiss Army knife kind of player.
We'll miss you, Alice!

penbrook 12-08-2015 07:07 PM

I ain't even mad b cause we knew Zobrist was just a rental!
