burlingtonbandit Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Author Posted November 13, 2014 Its "DEVON" lol edited it right after I made it.
Inklink Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 TSN ALERT. Who is Travis I have no clue. FORM MY OPINION people!
burlingtonbandit Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Author Posted November 13, 2014 Is this good or bad? Great trade as hes a pretty good prospect and plays 2nd base.
GD Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Is this good or bad? we now have a legit 2B -- So where does this leave the OF? Pillar-Pompey-Bautista is gross.
ace3113 Verified Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Love it! Big Travis fan. Luckily for us he's blocked by Kinsler.
Inklink Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 http://www.mlive.com/tigers/index.ssf/2014/11/devon_travis_steven_moya_sit_a.html Baseball America list Here is the complete list of top Tigers prospects, according to Baseball America, along with a few details about each of them: 1. Devon Travis, 2B/OF: Travis was named the franchise's Minor League Player of the Year following the 2013 season. He hit .351 with 16 home runs, 76 RBIs, 22 steals and a .936 OPS in 2013 while splitting time between West Michigan and Lakeland. (More on Devon Travis.) Apparently he had surgery in September: http://www.freep.com/story/sports/mlb/tigers/2014/10/07/detroit-tigers-prospect-devon-travis/16893883/ had hoped to represent the Detroit Tigers in the Arizona Fall League, which began Monday. Instead, he was home in Florida recovering from core muscle surgery. It will be four weeks Thursday since the surgery. Travis hit .298 in his first year at Double-A Erie. He had 20 doubles, 10 homers and 52 RBIs in 100 games. Travis (5-feet-9, 195 pounds) would have gone to the Fall League if he hadn't suffered the injury. "I was trying to beat out an infield single," he said. "I kind of stretched at the end instead of just running straight to the bag normal. I kind of did a lean at the end. "I've been jogging for about a week and a half." The Tigers asked Travis to switch from second base to centerfield late in the season. He played three games in the outfield before he was injured. He was all for the move considering the Tigers have Ian Kinsler at second.
ace3113 Verified Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Dang I might have drafted him if I knew he was gonna get traded to a team he had a spot on. Nice spittin.
metafour Verified Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 BA just named him #1 prospect in Detroit's system.
Angrioter Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Is this good or bad? It's f***ing great!! Devon is the best Tigers prospect. Top-100 prospect B-American
glory Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Alex 2010-11 is back. Excellent trade, and I'm one of the few who actually thinks Gose can be a decent MLB player.
TheHurl Site Manager Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Kind of ironic considering how many wanted Gose to become Devon
GD Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 126 wRC+ in AA last year .319 wOBA (102 wRC+) projection next year something in that ball park would be so nice omg
Inklink Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Apparently he can play outfield?
GD Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Somebody update the Roy Halladay trade flow chart.
BTS Community Moderator Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 OK. Travis has a legit chance to be a league-average 2B immediately. Losing Gose is a hit though.
GD Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 OK. Travis has a legit chance to be a league-average 2B immediately. Losing Gose is a hit though. I strongly doubt a 2B could be added more efficiently than this. Pillar probably isn't the worst 4th OF in the world, nice projections + off the charts zGRIT.
Stangstag Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Wow. Guess its finally time to change my avatar and sig
xposbrad Verified Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 So you guys are saying AA did something good for once?
BTS Community Moderator Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 I strongly doubt a 2B could be added more efficiently than this. Pillar probably isn't the worst 4th OF in the world, nice projections + off the charts zGRIT. I'm not saying it's a bad move. I like Travis. Just pointing out that Gose isn't nothing. I liked that skill set.
KingKat Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 I'm not saying it's a bad move. I like Travis. Just pointing out that Gose isn't nothing. I liked that skill set. He had a good skill set for a 4th OF but Devon Travis is a starter on this team so it makes a ton of sense.
Angrioter Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 2B Devon Travis - 500K CF Dalton Pompey - 500K LF Pillar/Dirks - 2.5M great!!
GD Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 I'm not saying it's a bad move. I like Travis. Just pointing out that Gose isn't nothing. I liked that skill set. Yeah, he was fun to watch. Pillar will be nice too though. Happ for an OF now?
GD Old-Timey Member Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 keithlaw @keithlaw 1m1 minute ago Failed prospect traded for non-prospect. GM Meetings Fever - catch it! ok Keith Law lol
