Every team in mlb wanted Kimbrel and we turned it into our 12th second baseman?

Which means one 2B will be asked to pretend he’s a SS.
Didn't see this before I posted.

Circling back to Madrigal.... he's potentially this generations tony gwynn. Gwynn for his career had a 7.7%/4.2% bb/k rate. Madrigal thus far in the majors has been 4.6%/7.4%. He's got that kind of elite contact. Don't get me wrong Madrigal isn't there yet but in this era of baseball with k's that high that's purely absurd contact.

After seeing what we got for Kimbrel. I’m excited to see what we get for Baez. Love that Madrigal is coming back. We put video of him on for our Varsity and JV players when we talk about players with a high contact rate.

Lol somebody is trading for him? Jed must have got a call and heard his name and instantly said yes

jed has done an excellent job at shipping guys out. This has been exactly what was needed. They’ve even managed to flip Trevor Williams. Like holy hell. Has to mean Davies goes too. Can’t imagine a team preferred Williams over Davies. Davies has to be in talks of going to a different team with KB or something

That’s all he is. Avg defender, 0 power, can’t run bases …
