PREAMBLE
I want to be entertained, wins and losses don’t matter.
COACHING STAFF
- Hitting coach: [Left blank]
- Pitching coach: [Left blank]
I don’t know any coaches
ARBITRATION-ELIGIBLE PLAYERS
- Mike Tauchman: Non-tender
- Steven Wilson: Non-tender
- Derek Hill: Non-tender
I don’t want these guys.
CLUB OPTIONS
- Luis Robert Jr.: Buy out for $2 million
- Martín Perez: Buy out for $1.5 million
FREE AGENTS
Mike Yastrzemski, 1 year $10 million - This would bring Hawk full circle. He could join the booth and wax poetic about “Yaz” and Schriffen could ask him to share a hot dog. Then Wimpy could pop in and stuff burgers in his face??
Ramon Laureano, 1 year $8 million. He could play center or right, ease Baldwin into outfield duty to see if he can do it. Trade him at deadline.
Matt Strahm, 1 year $7 million. He will fulfill the “dirty gross hair pitcher” roster spot and protect us from Clev.
Martin Perez, 1 year $5 million. I think he takes this with the buyout and maybe you get 20 starts.
TRADES
I’d trade Korey Lee and keep Quero.
