I think the Jays move Oliver more than anyone. If Cecil and Delabar bring in a good return, than I have no objection moving them.

My comment was to point out that Jim Leyland didn't pick Delebar for the all-star team.

 

But to your point, I'd move anyone (or everyone) in our pen (or most places on our roster) for a good return right now.

The only available Tigers' asset I am interested in is Castellanos. If a reliever + could get that done I'd part with anyone from the pen.

Then you are likely looking at dealing off a big piece like Bautista. Tigers won't trade Castellanos for a reliever + a mid tier prospect.

They'll trade what we tell 'em to trade.

Shh, reasonable trade ideas do not exist on these forums.

 

Boniface + Maicer for Avila.

[Ziggyy108]

AA will do nothing.

Avila is the grandson of the general manager.

No reason to trade Bautista for Castellanos. It would have to be for a lot more and the Tigers don't have many young assets to move. We're talking a huge Scherzer + Castellanos for Bautista + Janssen type humongous big deal.

Looks like Kennedy is going to the Padres for RP help

f*** off John!

 

"Look, our players are injured and terrible, only a complete idiot of a GM would want to trade for any of these *******s!"

Gibbons should be fired for this tread deadline performance. Either beef up your assets or shut your f***ing mouth.

This is the same clown who IIRC was downplaying the winning streak and trying to predict its end while it was in progress. Of course he's going to s*** on all our players right before the deadline. It's not hard to see why nobody wants to play for him (as evident from how he's literally been in fistfights with our players before).

Thatcher + Matt Stites + NonGuy <<<<<< Janssen/Delabar/Santos + Stilson + NonGuy

I will take Ian Kennedy.

 

Too Late

 

The Padres have bolstered their rotation for the present and future, acquiring righty Ian Kennedy from the division rival Diamondbacks for lefty reliever Joe Thatcher, Double-A reliever Matt Stites, and a compensation round B draft pick, according to a tweet from MLB.com's Corey Brock. It's a surprisingly light haul for Kennedy, a 28-year-old who is under team control through 2015 as an arbitration eligible player.

We could really use Kennedy! I don't understand these underpays, very confusing. Kennedy's a decent starter.

 

No kidding. He's a league average starter. Since when is 2 years of that (at arb rates) only worth a god damned reliever and a non asset (minor league reliever)?

[Laika]

Well, at least Kennedy to San Diego helps my Premier League team.

High ERA

[Abomination]

 

Thatcher + Matt Stites + NonGuy <<<<<< Janssen/Delabar/Santos + Stilson + NonGuy

 

I don't really want Kennedy unless we were to flip him. However, that haul seems criminally light for the Dbacks. I will say that Stites is putting up incredibly impressive numbers in the minors though for someone who seems to not be much of a prospect.

Is AA serious? That's basically Delabar + Stilson/Carreno/Wagner for an established pitcher.

High ERA

 

You know, in all my looking at Kennedy, I forgot to look at his ERA this year. We really need to look no further than this when trying to figure out why we didn't offer Delabar + Cecil (or something like that).

[HERPDERP]

What the f*** is AA doing. You're telling me nobody could beat that offer and that they actually traded within the division.

 

Well the rest of the league didn't bother to beat that offer, so you know the rest of the league think Kennedy is overrated.

3 wins, 5.23 ERA

that trade is going to look even worse as I'm sure he'll put up really good numbers in San Diego. The D-Backs are huge on character and I've heard that Kennedy doesn't fit in there...someone was going to rob them blind.
