I still think prob back end of the top 10. Obv lower than wherever his performance would put him.

It helps in my mind that he was essentially the poster child for WAR as measure for total performance. That Cabrera/Trout MVP debate from 2012 still feels significant for me

that’s so interesting because I would have Kersh ahead of Verlander mainly because he a) was the best starter and b) felt like the main character of every single postseason in a way Verlander wasn’t

this is such a fun convo - I feel like it’s hard not to pick Bonds (for good and bad)

not only should rizzo be fired, but for the first time in his career you can’t come up with a single justification for why he shouldn’t be fired. even if you don’t trust the lerners to make the hire, there’s no hire they could make that would be worse than the status quo

not a Rizzo quote but if the WaPo is questioning whether Christian Walker is within the budget then…
