I think Nate is right we're gonna lose draft picks This is one of the reasons i think we need to try and get some young guys from a couple of trades. We are gonna hurt in a couple of years. Everyone pretty much agrees, but easier said than done

Guys who are young and have their salaries controlled by arbitration are really expensive to trade for
We saw that when we dealt for Fiers and Gomez and they were scrubs

Since everyone hates Luhnow now, who would trade with him?

Without trades and facing draft pick penalties, our window to win is almost shut. It’s up to free agency now.

You are dead wrong about that, hoss...........We have an unwritten rule in this country.......or we did have until the wacko democrats started the impeachment hearings.........you are innocent until proven guilty. No matter who you are or what organization you are, you are not guilty until evidence PROVES you are. I am not dead wrong, you're citing another situation, Trump, where you are a big fan of the accused. I will not step down from my statement that you would be the first and the loudest of the Nats being stripped of their title, thus given to the Astros, had the Nats been accused of cheating...You know why I can easily do this without zero research (checking your previous posts) or waiting to see you a mistake on this in the future: Daniela. So I know you would like to think you would say you would be indifferent, but Corch you don't have it in you. You would be so livid and screaming, your wife, Beverly, would be calmly saying: Corchie, remember your pacemaker. From now on,if I want to look into the future, I will use you as a cystal ball.....For some reason, you sound like you wouldn't be bothered if these allegations ended up having some merit. I prefer to wait until I see actual proof of wrong-doing.

Our best option for a catcher is Chirinos with Stubbs as backup.

Our best option for a catcher is Chirinos with Stubbs as backup. I agree with this, been my take too... Things to get done in the off-season: Trade Correa, Reddick and Marisnick Re-sign Chirinos Sign a #3 grade SP to a 4 year deal Sign two bullpen arms

Free agent money should be spent on Chirinos and pitching.......I definitely want Correa and Reddick traded and have no problem with Marisnick being traded. I want them to look at signing Zack Wheeler. I would think a 4 year deal at $18-20 20 million per year should do it. Try to re-sign Will Harris. Go after a quality lefty reliever. Some like Pomeranz and he should be OK. i wanted Will Smith but we would not have paid him what he got from the Braves.
