Thor hasn't lived up to the hype since 2016, but it's only a one year deal.

Doesn't matter. The Mets have no rotation depth. They need every arm. After deGrom, it goes to shyt. Megill was a positive, but he's a 6 IP, but after that it falls off of a cliff. Peterson sucks. Carrasco flopped. They need Stroman too.

45? Wow. Spent a year with the O's late in his career. RIP.

Only a few days after the Mets RP passed too, same age IINM.

Meh with all his recent history of injuries,i dont get the move from the Angels perspective unless ur close to winning a WS.

Youre overpaying for 1 year and giving up compensation what sense does that make ?

His stuff (when he's at his best) is in that top tier of pitchers.

I look at Syndergaard the way I looked at Kevin Gausman.
Gausman's surface level numbers -- even when he was getting rocked in Baltimore -- were awful but the underlying metrics were always very good. Things finally started to normalize a bit in San Francisco and we've all seen a different result.

The obvious difference is that Gausman didn't have injury problems and Syndergaard does.
But I think the underlying numbers on Syndergaard are just as good. Noah hasn't been missing as many bats as Gausman, but if things work out the right way, Noah could be a strong #2 or #3 for the Angels rotation. He might only go 150 innings this year, but I like the possibilities.

I wanna like the Thor signing by Anaheim but every FA they sign besides Ohtani turns into trash.

He will be 39 in the Spring.
You wonder what he can still do.

Roger Clemens in his 40s was still going 200 innings a year. So I guess there is hope that Verlander can be a steady presence.

Clemens was also juicing yeah? but if anyone will have a strong year at 39, its Verlander, dude was born to pitch

 

[THASTUNNA]

Sign CC and get Marte and run it back

He was.
I don't think Clemens would have been throwing just 70 innings without the juice though. He was known to work out very hard and was in great shape.
Not saying it didn't help his recovery or anything.
