Dipoto continuing his offseason media circuit. We definitely can't complain that this guy hides in his office.

Cal's cuz here to brighten a boring dreary Tuesday...

Narcissism is an epidemic among young people.

Whoa. I miss that summer. If that's her real name.

That's nothing. Say hi to my friend, Reem who was enjoying Costa Rica last week....

An interesting idea....
Would you trade Ty France for Pablo Lopez straight up?!?!
Imagine a starting rotation of:
Castillo
Kirby
Gilbert
Lopez
Ray

or....then flip Lopez in a trade to the Pirates for Reynolds?

So in reality you give up France for Reynolds....and sign a first baseman like Luke Voit.

We all remember that trade.
He's hanging up his cleats.

It's a bit surprising since I'm sure he had some offers, but I guess they must have been in the 1-3 million range and maybe with taxes and agent fees it just isn't worth it. Seems like a useful arm though.

Julio's stats if he just stays healthy. No improvement.

Dipoto finally got his man. I remember the M's and Giants were in a bidding war for LA Stella. I was always wondering Dipoto would circle back around and get this guy. Cheaper version of Adam Frazier. Meh

Cost of Sheffield but not sure he is much lost. Giants are paying his bill with M’s paying league min so a price Dip can afford https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2023/01/ ... tella.html
