Why not Brian Woo

[sikeston bulldog2]

Good morning.

We have mentioned each of Seattles starters- Gilbert- Woo- Kirby-Miller. Gilbert makes 4M, the rest in the 700K range, for several years. Fits the mold.

I looked up values. Woo is the 15 th highest valued pitcher and 155 valued olayer of 760 roster players.

Soon Seattle will lose these guys, soon they will trade to reload.

Maybe now. They too are in a window. Time is now. AL west is down.

Is this the kind of deal we should be looking into for the rebuild.

He comes in as a bWar of 4.2. According to Matt’s model, this is the level player/ pitcher needed to fuel his intent. Right?

I doubt he is available.
Who would we even trade to get him?

And there is the huckleberry. That’s the level player, 4.2, that it’s gonna take. Where r they, r they even available, and how do we get them. Now we see the magnitude of deficiencies.

You are right, the Mariners are in their window to win right now, and aren’t going to reduce their chances of completing by trading one of their Major League starters. The fact that those same starters are going to start becoming expensive soon, is also another reason a deal for Donovan hasn’t come together. Anderson, and Sloan are being counted on by Seattle to replace a couple of those guys when they do get expensive! You can’t really blame them. They would really like to have Donovan but they aren’t willing to mortgage the future to get him. Since it is taking this long for any kind of a deal to get done, it looks like Bloom is the one that is going to have concede if the Cardinals really want to get some kind of a deal done.

The Cards don't have the trade comps for a talent of his caliber.

Nice write. Agree on the Seattle mindset. But it seems if they want to add anything, every team starts with their pitching. Sooner or later, they will trade one, for that part they need.

Exactly part of the intent. If it truly takes a talent or talents like this to compete, then we are in deep kimshee.

There is nothing in baseball that is in more demand than young, inexpensive pitching. Seattle has a lot of them, but not for too much longer. For the Cardinals to pry away just one of them would probably take Wetherholt, plus! I’m talking about Woo, Anderson, and Sloan. Originally I thought they wanted Donovan bad enough to let Sloan go, because he is the farthest away, but obviously that’s not the case!

Yea. Good points. Reference Sloan. Not even in the current stable.

[Hoosier59]

It’s really frustrating because DeWitt has just punted away this coming season and it wasn’t even 4th down!
He's made up his mind to go as cheap as possible with no contracts on the books until after the CBA is settled.
Many on here believe he will start spending again after it is settled, but by how much is still up in the air. He’s not going to try and keep up with the “ Big Boys “ if the current system isn’t changed!

So. Just like the Daytona 500. We might be in the race, but very well could be buried deep in the pack.

Seattle's window is viable for quite a few years
