Any thought?
The only team I see matching that in the MLB is perhaps the Angels, if the lose out on Bauer. I think he's worth $10-15 to an MLB team. He will probably get higher than that in Japan.Quote:

That would really be a rather inconsequential list seeing as how there is so much turnover from year to year, let alone over a whole decade. Not to mention it'd also be a pretty small sample size.Quote:

One that had already peaked and that will be traded for veteran that has potential and whose swing is more suited for a Yankee Stadium. Kelly was the golden child in the 89-92 seasons and it was a shock when he was dealt but the scouts knew better and getting Paulie was a huge piece for the dynasty years.
Playoffs is nothing but small sample size BS and some people act like it is the end all be all. People said A-rod and David Price were chokers and awful in the playoffs for years until they weren't. Now all they are known as is playoff heros. People say Stanton can't play in the playoffs and his style doesn't translate to postseason success. He mostly carried the Yankees in the playoffs this past year.
I agree. My cheerfully optimistic was intended as sarcasm directed at the projections.Quote:

Let's face it, the back end of Stanton/Cole/DJ (and we can probably add Judge to that) occurring simultaneously is going to be pretty ugly so we better win one in the next 4 years.
The playoffs are all about starting pitching. They make the biggest impact come Oct.Quote:

Almost all the winners have an elite offense as well.Quote:
