Brooklyn State of Mind: Robins Gamble On Ace (2047.4)

Post by lordtoffee » Tue Jun 08, 2021 9:51 pm

The Robins may continue to scuffle, but they have already begun to look ahead to 2048 with another free agent acquisition. This time, the Robins have acquired another popular player who will not be seeing the field at all in 2047. That's right, Carlos Pineda signed on the dotted line for a $9 million a year deal for the next few seasons, with an opt out. Yes, Pineda is a huge gamble. But Brooklyn had the room to do it this year, and they think that it is worth the risk.

The main reason why they wanted to do it is because Pineda has a great track record in Yellow Springs, and when you have the chance to get an asset that won't cripple your cap, it makes sense. Also, he continues to help with fan interest, which in a year when the Robins have been struggling, you might as well show that you at least care, and nobody can accuse the Robins of trying to fix their team both in the short term and in the long term. Pineda is the only pitcher in the league who won't play this year who would have been worth the risk. The Robins may be a lot of things, but they are never boring.

At least you have a plan in mind. That's the key. Just gotta hope now Pineda doesn't lump from the injury
