That would be huge after trading Joyce today.

 

Why the f*** would they trade myers..... Don't see anything that would be a worthy return for someone as young and controllable as Myers. I guess i should not criticize until i see what they would get.

Who would even be going to Tampa there? Cashner..?

 

The only player who really makes any sense is Tyson Ross.

Maybe none.

 

C Hanigan

1B Loney

2B Franklin

SS Escobar

3B Longoria

LF Jennings

CF Kiermaier

RF Zobrist

DH DeJesus/Guyer/Forsythe

 

There's really nothing wrong with that OF. I feel like SD would have to add something to Ross though.

Myers did just come of a 0.1 season in 350+ PA and is projected for 2.3 WAR this year.

 

Yeah i am not a fan of Myers. Heard rumblings Tampa didn't like his work ethic.

I think his sample size is way too small to determine what he will be. Him being seen as injury prone doesn't help the argument though.

Supposedly for prospects.

 

I think the Rays get Wisler + Liriano + Kelly and throw in something on their side.

 

Peterson and Liriano out of Petco plz

Jays content from Sullivan's chat today on Fangraphs:

 

Comment From _David_

What do you make of reporters saying everyone in the industry believes the Saunders trade was even? Even if you see them as equal players, it was still 2 years for one, so Happ would have to be quite a bit better, right?

 

9:34

Jeff Sullivan: Apparently a lot of people in the game see Happ as possessing rising stock. They think he’s got real upside, and so, you take that for what it’s worth

 

Comment From Cal

Do the Jays need a true #1 to seriously contend next season? Or is their rotation good enough as constructed right now?

 

9:59

Jeff Sullivan: Could be better; is good enough. Would James Shields count as a true #1? Do you think James Shields is going to pitch markedly better next year than Marcus Stroman?

 

Comment From Cool Lester Smooth

Blue Jays have to be division favorite after their moves, correct?

 

10:05

Jeff Sullivan: I don’t think favorites. I don’t think they’re markedly better than the Red Sox. But I suppose you could try to go with co-favorites

 

Comment From Eric

Are you fine with a Saunders-Pompey-Bautista OF for the Jays with Pillar LF/4thOF?

 

10:43

Jeff Sullivan: It’s not my favorite outfield in the league, but I think it’s workable so long as you think Saunders can actually play in 130 – 140 games

Dodgers shopping Brandon League willing to pick up half his price tag.

 

Brandon League at 3.5 Million, I would take as a mid reliever.

 

A reliever with 60% GB rate for 2 straight years...

Also had a decent FIP last year. Not saying he should be closing or even be a late inning reliever, but he could strengthen that mid core which is really bare right now.

He's kind of a strange dude.

 

I have these theories about highly educated front offices, deep down one of their weaknesses is that when they do meet players they are really stupid and from everything I hear Wil Myers is the stupidest one in all of baseball (and I've met many really stupid ball players). So while the numbers don't come with bias, there might be some bias when the projections are down and you just can't bring yourself to like that player.

 

And this is the Rays...you just know Hedges is in this deal somewhere. Best defensive catcher in the minors.
