Steve Adams

They have the payroll space, Myers isn't useless (just overpaid), etc.
Brad Hand's Hand
2:54
Who is ever going to take Wil Myers? For David Price, for Alex Cobb?! Anybody?
Steve Adams
2:55
Price/Myers makes some sense.
Jay
2:55
Is there a chance the Cubs Sign Dallas Keuchel Steve Adams?
Steve Adams
2:55
Cubs aren't spending that money
Better fit for WSox
2:55
Keuchel or Ryu?
Steve Adams
2:56
Ryu is better, so I'd take him as the better fit for anyone.
King Felix
2:56
Where do I pitch in 2020?
Steve Adams
2:56
Some team with a big park and innings to give ... Tigers, Giants, maybe Marlins (not that they're hurting for SP depth, but King Felix can sell some tickets, mentor the kids, etc.)
Nazman
2:57
Ozuna back to Cards 2 years $30
Steve Adams
2:57
Think he'll get more than that, but I do think there's a good chance his market kind of stalls.
King James
2:58
What is Dodgers next move? I can’t believe they are striking out on all fronts
Steve Adams
2:58
When have you known this front office to beat the market for a top-tier free agent? It's not their style. They signed Kenley but largely because ownership drove that move, it seems.
Ozuna
2:59
JDM money as stove heats up?
Steve Adams
2:59
No way he's getting 5/110
David Price
3:00
Am I really getting dealt?  Who would pay that for me?
Steve Adams
3:00
No one's paying the 3/96 that's remaining on the deal, which is why they'd need to take on another contract or include cash in the deal.
George Costanza
3:00
Angels beat writer from the Athletic reporting Teheran to Angels isn't entirely a done deal, for what it's worth
Steve Adams
3:01
Sure, but teams frequently put that sentiment out when a physical hasn't been completed yet. It's a year and $9MM per multiple other reports -- but nothing's "done" until the physical is passed and the paperwork is signed.
3:04
Sorry had a phone call quick
Stevo
3:04
Ryu for 4/40 with incentives to double that to 4/80 based on innings pitched
Steve Adams
3:05
Zero chance Ryu is signing for 10MM annual guarantee
Christian
3:05
Does a player have 10 - 5 Rights if the five years happened during a previous run with a team and not current?  Thank you and happy holidays
Steve Adams
3:05
10 years of service, including five consecutive years with one team.
(Grants a player full no-trade rights)
Stevo
3:05
Jbj for Chatwood?
Steve Adams
3:06
Would actually be worse for the Red Sox' luxury bill. Nope.
John O
3:06
Jhon Duran and PTBNL for Quintana
Steve Adams
3:06
I can't see the Twins moving Duran for a year of Quintana
Richter
3:07
Still any chance of STL finally acquiring long-coveted Donaldson, what with several other teams with more urgent 3B needs (which would result in higher spending for him)?
Steve Adams
3:08
I don't see how they'd outbid the field for him when doing so ostensibly forces them to eat Matt Carpenter's salary (be it via trade or release)
Sano
3:08
Comeback year or am I washed up?
Steve Adams
3:10
Is this supposed to say "Cano"?

Miguel Sano had a 137 wRC+ for the Twins in 2019.

I don't expect a ton from Cano moving forward.
Rusty
3:11
Ok, Ok, Ok... this is probably stupid, but if the Astros are willing to listen to offers for Correa... could the Tigers put together a reasonable package around Boyd and some prospects not named Casey Mize?
Steve Adams
3:11
Correa is a free agent in two years.
The Tigers aren't trading Boyd, who's controlled longer, AND prospects for him.
Twins Fan
3:12
The Korean media is reporting that the Twins are about to sign Ryu.  Have you heard anything?
Steve Adams
3:12
You have a link to that? It's not on Yonhap and I don't see any Korean reports on Twitter after a quick search.
3:13
Will certainly look into it if there's some semi-credible report indicating it though.
SouthJerseySteve
3:13
How about the Rockies as takers for Odubel Herrera for one of those awful reliever contracts? I mean, they were deploying Ian Desmond in CF last year.. Odubel for Shaw/McGee/Davis straight up?
