Dominos tend to move in a certain order.
With Correa likely headed back to the Astros, the focus now seems to be on the Freeman Derby, which has about 7-8 serious teams.
Once he signs, I think we'll see a reset and some of those teams will join the Bryant Derby. Boras isn't going to let Bryant sign before he can leverage as much competition as possible.

Love all those teams making a big push for CF Suzuki.
Suzuki fits so many needs for this team but i doubt they even did any due diligence. its always the same teams and never your philadelphia phillies. but we have a vierling/doobie platoon CF to look forward to.

I'd probably rather have Diekman over Hand for 2/8 and I'd much much much rather have McHugh for 2/10 over either of the two RPs they just signed. Braves are making some really savvy moves.

Way better moves. Throughly unimpressed with what they have done so far

Sadly I doubt you or any of us were expecting anything different

Braves sign Colin McHugh to a two-year deal. Does anyone else think it might be a better signing than the two guys the Phils just signed?

Phillies might not get any of these guys, but most people think they will get one. So, who do you want? Castellanos, who I think is the best hitter, Schwarber, whose left-handed bat would give the Phils lineup balance or Bryant, who is the best defender and more versatile?

I'll actually take the two the Phils signed. I prefer two 30- or 31- year olds over a 35 year old - regardless of position. Signing relieves is something you do en masse. Rarely does signing just one pan out. You almost need to sign 3-4 and hope one simply pans out.

I can't believe people are so over the top on a position that rarely produces the same year in - year out. Relievers (other than the super-rare) are all a crap shoot. Pay to play.

It's 100% a better signing.
