Re: Manny Pina - C Reply #32 – March 08, 2018, 07:30:58 AM My point was people get their hopes up and then someone jumps in at the end. I still need catching PA's as well so if I don't get Pino I'll be fighting with you over later catchers. Quote Selected

Edit: I don't want to start a fight here. It's all good. Pina at $2.6M... what a weird offseason. Quote Selected Last Edit: March 08, 2018, 08:32:00 AM by monsooner

Before FA started, I had a feeling about this. The catching market is extremely thin. Next week should be interesting. Quote Selected

The Pina thread has been hijacked.I think this year's catcher market is a good example of where 1 year contracts would be helpful. Specifically, I don't like the idea of 1 year contracts in free agency. Part of the fun/challenge with our 2 and 3 year contracts is that we have one "known" year and one or two "unknown" years. If we have 1 year contracts for free agents, an average player with an out of this world season might auction for Mike Trout prices because I know I only need to commit to that one great year.I would like to see 1 year contracts for guys I would call waiver wire pickups. Once free agency is over, I could pick up something from the scrap pile of players left and sign them to a 1 year contract. It would be a way to fill a need with a crappy catcher (or what ever need you have) for this season without needing to commit long term to the guy.

Re: Manny Pina - C Reply #37 – March 08, 2018, 10:52:36 AM I actually didn't wait on purpose. Until yesterday I didn't even realize Pina was a catcher. I thought all the catchers were off the board for this week. I picked up my computer after I got my 5 year old to sleep and and started looking at the few folks that were left and realized he was a catcher who I still have never heard outside of the MSB world.

So that way you can see all of the players available each week in one spot. I started doing that last year, but I forgot to remind people of it this year. Better late than never I guess.
