My plan is release Rendon. If they do that it will be a major success of an offseason. 😂 I also like your idea of hey can we at least sign league average guys????
It's good to consider options, especially if there's a strategy. Even if the moves pick up ten games next season, which is significant, wouldn't it make sense to DFA Rendon instead? It's not sexy, but it removes him from the roster and takes the payroll hit in a year that there's no real expectation of a playoff spot. His presence retards the options the Angels can make, so take the medicine now while it's tenable.
Korean Angel's fan here! It's close, but it's not "Hai" Seong Kim, it's phonetically more "Hae Sung Kim" like saying the word "Hey" without the letter Y. But much respect to you guys for wanting to be accurate with the pronunciation.
My 3 picks would be 3 guys under 30 that might be gambles, but would be much more realistic as an Angel's signing than a price tag of a Soto or Cole. I think these 3 guys would have upsides with 4-5 year contracts, and they would fit into our teams 2 year competitive window.
Walker Bueler, who looks more like himself after his surgery.
Shane Bieber, who may need 2 years but is under 30 and would be a big discount in 2 years.
And "Ha" Seong Kim, who would instantly be a defensive upgrade that can play any infield position and would be a fan favorite like he is in SD.
Thanks bros for including us in being GMs!
Jon 100% on board with your signings, well done!!
I would spend 52 million on a 4 year contract with Carlos Estevez! He’s already proven that he is a leader in the clubhouse with the younger guys and I believe he is worth 12 – 14 million $ a year!
