And he was having a good offseason

But no, he had to revert back to Brian Cashman
At least it’s just a 1 year deal. They can cut bait real quick if it doesn’t pan out. There weren’t a lot of big moves to make at first base this winter. Maybe they can pull off a big trade at third or second now at least.

I don't hate it but I don't love it either, it's a move I could live with. I honestly don't think he'll even be the starter by September.

I woulda rather just gone in with Rice, but Murakami feels realistic now and I’d love to see this team work on building a new core while the existing one is here.

2B/3B is interesting because whoever is alongside Jazz could be here beyond a year.

Paul Goldschmidt in the 2nd half of 2024:

.279/.319/.480
.799 OPS
.340 wOBA
120 wRC+

You don't know what you can expect out of a 37 year old player but it's a fairly low risk

I doubt that he’s available in a trade and I’m sure he’d cost a lot, but they should call the diamondbacks about Ketel Marte. He would fill a lot of needs on this team and could fit nicely as a 2 or 4 hitter in the lineup. He’s also not being paid some insane amount.
