My guess is that their agents are using us to drive the offers up from the other teams. As is tradition.

I refuse to let myself get even a little bit excited over anything. I will be excited when I physically see a pen hit paper.

Lots of trade chatter about Tyler Glasnow this offseason. Two execs told me they believe Tampa Bay will "definitely" move its ace, who is set to earn $25 million in 2024.

Dylan Cease, Shane Bieber could be on the trade market as well.

The Giants concentration on Ohtani sounds lie last year when they said they were after Judge. I hope they have a better backup plan than they did last year.

To be fair, we were legitimately trying for judge
I am not getting my hopes up at all, but it would be insane if we got these guys. I remember being like 12 and i'd see "rumors" that we were getting vlad guerrero and i was going bananas to my friends lol. I bet kids are doing this to ohtani as well

I know they were trying to get Judge but they were wrong to put so much emphasis on him when the chances of actually landing him were small. I hope that having Bob Melvin as manager might help when it comes to convincing players to come to SF.
The stadium is a benefit when trying to recruit pitching but a lot of power hitters don't want to play there, especially left handed hitters. That could be a problem when trying to get Ohtani. He may not pitch for part of the 2024 season so they would be getting a left handed DH.

LOL Kapler is hired as the Marlins' Assistant GM.
He's going to go full Miami bro mode. Good for him , I guess.
