2024 MLB Hot Stove
Just getting going. Cardinals stealing a page from the Twins playbook, signing both Kyle Gibson (12 million?) and Lance Lynn to 1-year deals.
Nola back to the Phillies.
Ohtani will obviously be the biggest domino to fall.

Re: 2024 MLB Hot Stove
I was surprised by the Cardinals' moves; they've always been considered one of the 'haves.'
Also, why do sports leagues have different sized dominoes? It fucks with the spacing and pace.

I don't think this rules them out from anything else. They needed arms, they traded two starters at the deadline last year with not much returning to this year's roster.

Re: 2024 MLB Hot Stove
I doubt we offered him anything, much less multiple years.
His contract was absolutely terrible, very long and incentive based. So I don't blame him for wanting to get one last nice deal.

Good for Maeda, but I'm fine with them moving on. He had some decent outings for the Twins, but think they're better off looking elsewhere.

Doogie is saying we had interest in a one year deal only and probably weren't willing to do $12 million.

Why did they trade Graterol for him again? Brusdar would be a stud in the BP with him and Duran.
