Interesting trade trading the password for another middle of the rotation arm. I can't complain

Of the 8 biggest contracts signed so far, 5 have gone to RP.

Of the top 30 free agents by predicted contract value, only three have signed (Cease, Naylor, Williams).

Haha. That's a fair point.

Nope. He's got a pretty good projection though and his FIP has been really good, so I wonder if he's been quite a bit unlucky?

That said, this is a really good pickup for the Nats. He should start for them right away and has a chance to be pretty good. Even if Ferrer is as good as his projection/FIP, I'll take the athletic catcher all day long.

So Ruiz will backup up Ford?

Will Gallen be there in 2026? If so, Arizona could have a solid rotation next year.

I would expect so in the pretty near future. Might be a time share for a little while. Or we might just be nearing the end of Ruiz's tenure with the Nats. They've gor Riley Adams too who may need to get some PT...or maybe not.

I hope Edwin Diaz’s arm falls off. (Is that wrong?)

Diaz to LAD 3 years for 69M, Maybe Cohen is also getting on board with a salary cap now that he has his casino.

When the going got tough for the Dodgers, they pitched all of their starters out of relief, does signing Diaz even matter if you have 9 good starters?

They could just send Diaz out as an Opener to lighten the load on the Aces.
