The Official 2024-25 MLB Hot Stove Thread

Braves really need to add another starting pitcher. They lost a lot of innings between Fried and Morton.

fukking bozos paid him and that old guy from Japan almost the same as Burnes is making this year.

I hate it had to be @Trips

Dodgers signed that cat from south Korea who was posted

Dfa’d Diego cartaya. Cuz their 40 man full

Cartaya was once the dodgers 1-2 prospect and top 20 in mlb entering the 2023 season.

The Red Sox are about to be back as elite contenders. Best top tier prospect talent in the league. .

bought a bunch of Campbell and Anthony rookie cards last night.

I wouldn’t mind them adding Bregman or Alonso though

Orioles front office might as well be spitting on the face of their fans right now, only team Charlie Morton should be on is the A's or maybe the Savannah Bananas, come on. They better hope they get off to a good start to the season because all the new fans they made the past 2 seasons might not come out if they start out mediocre.

Same goes for Detroit.

This is the only league where teams don't try when they get good. I wonder what the difference is...

We can always brag about the farm.

I mean...I'm sorta cool with this. Last 4 years he averaged 30+ starts, and he was old then, too. So if nothing else I'm counting on him being an innings-eater. Probably better than Verlander and (much as I love the guy) Mad Max at this point.

This can't be a wrap for SP this offseason, though. Hoping a trade is in the works. They didn't get Burnes 'til last February, so I'm optimistic.

Morton is hittable and can eat innings if allowed. But, Hyde is also really all over the map on how he manages the rotation/bullpen. There are going to be games where Morton is getting lit up and Hyde is just going to keep him in. And then there are going to be days where Morton seems to be turning it around and he's going to pull him early. I think Morton will match his start count, but I don't feel he's going to be the innings eater he has traditionally been. This was a meh move period.
