2022 American League Central Division Champions

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Bimbo is Paul Dolan.
Gonna miss him when he sells the team to Blitzer.
Oh snaps I thought he was Andre Knott…..Because every time someone posts with knowledge of the Organization, I here that Andre laugh
 
I’m assuming some of the posters might not know who @Bimbo is ……Let me feel you in, he’s part of the GUARDIAN’S ORGANIZATION enough said……….
I think you have your wires crossed.

Bimbo's just a stay at home dad. He's no insider--the insiders in this section will tell you exactly who they are ;)

Hey man.

That’s what the guy said. He nailed it. I work for the Guardians Organization.

We are a non-profit, legal adoption company that specializes in focused childcare at home.

You see, I have another confession. I do not have any biological children. I do not know how to approach or how to get beautiful women at the gym so I had to adopt my children. They may not be mine, but they’re the closest thing I’ll ever have!

Liar! You're caught!


"We are an adult, transitional-support organization designed to help individuals and families piece their lives together after life altering events."

Also, we all know you impregnate all the beautiful women at the gym. No need to be modest.

something fishy about this.. Bimbo has been known to peruse the internet in search of legos for building small anatomically correct humans... i.e. lego children !! They're plastic forms!!.. not adopted children!!

At least that's what I heard from the real insiders...

Wrong the guy who tries that is @Lee lol
 
@BimboColesHair Jose really seems to be pressing the FO to keep Amed. What's the most likely scenario with him in 2023 and beyond? Still a trade?

Do my eyes deceive me, or did @RchfldCavRaised actually give rep in the baseball section?

Caught me lurking. Great post Bimbo.

I've been enjoying watching these pups grow up exclusively and offline in-person with my Dad this season. We drove from Nashville to Cincy for that weekend back to back with the Reds the second series of the season (nearly saw back to back JRam Slams) and from there, we havent missed a single day without texting about or watching these kids together on this magical journey this year.


Last time we did this, I was 12 years old and he took me to about 20 games during that magical 1995 World Series loss to the Braves.

This Guards season has been all about transitions, as he recently had a pretty serious health scare, lengthy hospital stay and now will move into my house once he's discharged in the next week.

So I came to lurk and learn some talking points from you pros in here so I can have some filler for what I hope will be the first of many long October runs.

Back to the shadows for me and keep up the great work in here
 
Why not just turn Amed into the epitome of a utility player at the point Arias, Rocchio or Freeman take over as the regular SS?

Start him as the DH regularly, measure his level of comfort at every infield position or corner OF spots on days you want to flex someone else into the DH spot.

Play him wherever you believe he can be a capable defender.

LF - Kwan
DH - Rosario
3B - Ramirez
1B - Naylor
RF - Gonzalez & Nolan Jones
2B - Gimenez
SS - EYT (Elite Young Talent)
C - Naylor
CF - Straw

In theory I like the idea a lot--he hasn't been a PH much but I think he'd do well; I'd rather see him be a utility INF only--but I just don't see it happening given Rosario's contract situation. He's making $5m this year. Is this org going to pay $7-8m/yr for a utility guy (to keep Jose happy)?

By 2024 I think we're looking at a Jose/Rocchio/Gimenez/Naylor infield, which leaves Arias, Freeman, and Miller competing with Rosario (in theory). And that's with Noel and Tena knocking on the door. In the OF you've got Brennan, Kwan, Straw, Gonzalez, maybe Benson, and hopefully Valera. I don't see Rosario making a dent there.

It's getting crowded quickly.

And even if the Guardians move Miller (I'm fine with that) and Freeman (ehhh, not sure yet), we're back to the salary question, i.e., arbitration/extension, etc.
 
Guardians have already laid the numbers out to Bieber and he said no. Bieber will command Sherzer/Verlander type money and the will get it. The Guardians can't do that. Don't care which Rosenhaus brother it is, they come from the same cloth....no hometown discounts.

I think the team will let him pitch here through 24 and try to win it all. Makes no sense at all to make a Clevenger type trade when the team already
has Rule 5 issues to deal with. Speaking of which, I think the same thing with Amed. They will keep him next year and hope Freeman, Rocchio or Arias will step up in 24.
I thought this to be the case as well, but Bimbo informed me that it indeed was not the case. Bieber has said no to nothing.
