I doubt the guardians move him as they think they can compete. You’d need the guardians to fall out of playoff contention at the deadline in order to make that move. I think more realistic next year Bieber is dealt before the year with 1 year left of arbitration as compared to now. https://calltothepen.com/2022/10/26/bieber-trade-might-be-in-the-cards-for-guardians/
November 7, 20223 yr Sign Turner and Benintendi, trade Hoskins for SP or BP help, move Schwarber to 1B: Turner Harper Realmuto Schwarber Castellanos Benintendi Bohm Stott Marsh Line up and defense issues substantially improve by adding high on base, plus defensive players in Turner and Benintendi.

Stott is a big wildcard for next season I think. Watching him at the plate, there’s plenty of reason for optimism that he’s going to turn into a consistent .300 hitter. His approach is good (though he had a few rough at bats the last couple games), he makes pitchers work. He needs to get better at hitting fastballs, but I think he’s got a real good chance to be a solid lead-off guy.
November 7, 20223 yr Not worried about Stott at all to be honest - I think he's gonna be fine. I enjoyed the Hoskins HRs this postseason obviously, but he's gotta go. Too inconsistent at the plate and too much of a liability in the field. Really like Segura as well but yeah we can do better there.
November 7, 20223 yr It sure was fun while it lasted. A few fans were at the Bank to greet them coming home. The 5 yr. old kid is a mini Harper. Adorable! Thanks for the ride. See ya next season. It will be here before we know it! https://6abc.com/world-series-2022-bryce-harper-phillies-fans-citizens-bank-park/12425035/

Frankly don’t pull a dominguez and try putting off the inevitability with doing other methods that aren’t going to work. His PRP treatment didn’t work and that was after he sat 2.5 months with the thumb. If he does the new procedure it’s a 4-6 month recovery like hoskins did.

November 7, 20223 yr He didn’t mention it, but the option was mutual. No way were the Phillies exercising that option. And as expected, Phillies exercised Nola’s final year option for $16m.

I can't deal with another season of Castellanos in that 5 hole. I've never seen a player look so lost at the plate for almost an entire season.

November 7, 20223 yr Rodon + Turner/Boegarts/Correa + BP help might be tough from a money standpoint. That’s likely a combined $65m-$70m in annual payroll additions. They’ve already got $132m tied up between Harper, Wheeler, Realmuto, Castellanos, Schwarber and Nola + another $25m for arbitration guys (Hoskins, Suarez, Alvarado, Dominguez). We’ll see how committed Middleton is. Have to imagine they made a boatload of money from the playoff run.

Their payroll last year was $242M.... As of right now, they're looking at $161Mm so they have $81M to match last years. Hell, $30 million is coming off the books just from Segura and Didi.

If they got turned/Correa/bogerts and rodon I’d be super stoked.
