Any they don’t intend to attempt to resign should be moved.
Helsley probably the biggest decision of the bunch.
I like Matz but health is always a question.
Then there of course is Arenado.
Gray? Contreras?
I think they stay.
I’d put Nootbaar in a package before his value slips to nothing.
They have some position player depth to deal from.
This organization has done that for years.
I never said they were going to get great talent back.
Where?
You're still talking quantity when speaking about Gorman and Saggese.Cusecards wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 15:42 pmThey have some decent depth in the system at Catcher to deal from.11WSChamps wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 15:27 pmYou mentioned position player depth.Cusecards wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 15:25 pmThe question was about the types of moves they might make?11WSChamps wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 15:22 pmYou're confusing quantity with quality.Cusecards wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 15:20 pmAs they did 2 seasons ago at the deadline they’ll start with the pending FA’s.todd-parker wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 14:56 pm Can I raise a practical question at this point?

Where?
In the Infield:
1B- Contreras/Burleson
2B- Gorman/Donovan/Saggese
SS- Winn
3B- Arenado
Wetherholt probably forced himself onto the field in 2026. So add him to IF depth.
The OF needs upgrade.
I would move Nootbaar before his value drops to nothing.
Of course Donovan or Burleson could factor at corner OF.
Ok....whatever???11WSChamps wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 15:47 pmYou're still talking quantity when speaking about Gorman and Saggese.Cusecards wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 15:42 pmThey have some decent depth in the system at Catcher to deal from.11WSChamps wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 15:27 pmYou mentioned position player depth.Cusecards wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 15:25 pmThe question was about the types of moves they might make?11WSChamps wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 15:22 pmYou're confusing quantity with quality.Cusecards wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 15:20 pmAs they did 2 seasons ago at the deadline they’ll start with the pending FA’s.todd-parker wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 14:56 pm Can I raise a practical question at this point?

Contreras isn't going anywhere and Burleson is looked upon as a DH by most accounts.
As for "depth" at catcher none of those players are proven at the big show level.

JFC.....LMFAO the guy asked a simple question about “buying” or “selling” at the deadline?
I responded back with what the FO MIGHT DO????
Didn’t say they were looking to build a juggernaut.
I’m simply a fan who follows the team.
I don’t have a say.
I don’t draft or develop.
What do you propose they do????

Wasn't trying to upset you.
I just don't put as much stock in what we have position wise as some do that's all.
Simple disagreement. Have a good 4th.
Most HR ever in one game by a team is 10. They were close. Likely the most HR anyone'(poop) in one game this season.todd-parker wrote: ↑04 Jul 2025 16:11 pm Cubs hit back to back HRs three times in this game. That's got to be some kind of record.
