I think they will compete for the NL West, but the Dodgers and Giants will be the frontrunners.
I don't think they have what it takes to go far in the postseason (Yet)

I agree on paper they should maybe have an outside shot at the division and compete for the WC, but baseball is crazy
Could see them kind of like the Mets in 2015, tbh (except the pitching obviously isn't as good, though the Dbacks lineup is preeeeetty good with Goldy and Pollock)

Whose in their Rotation after Greinke, Miller, Corbin?

I don't trust their bullpen enough to go that far.

Fuck if I know, :lol I gotta think the pen is a bigger concern for them, anyway
The Mets comparison was more with a team that surprised people, but also won because of a weakened front runners (Nats and Dodgers), not with how they got there or anything

How long will he be healthy though? His injury history the past 2 seasons isn't great.

Looks like the Phillips to Nats deal is a done deal looking at BPs twitter. Gonna miss that dude.

Why lol Dodgers? The Mariners are signing a 34-year-old pitcher who failed a physical.
To a one-year deal with options for 2017 and 2018. He's a damn good pitcher and we were already rolling out a complete rotation before we brought him in. Definitely a big win for us.

If somebody is stupid enough to buy an Iwakuma Dodgers jersey before the deal is final then I laugh at them.
LAUGH.

Cardinals offseason has been 49ers like so far. Hard to feel sorry when they have been so dominant and will still get 85+ wins.
No, this isn't even close to that clusterfuck. They've just lost some guys while their opponents got better; the 49ers off-season from hell was on a whole nother level.
