John Gibbons Thread (+ Venting)

[Daniel Labude]

Would you trade Hoffman for Mike Trout? Remember that we already have a centrefielder.

 

In the other thread I was assuming Bryant was mainly a 3B that's also why I didn't like that idea, need to see him more at other positions. I would entertain Hoffman for Trout since Trout has proven himself over 3 seasons.We have a CF but Trout is wayyyyyy better. Then could possible trad Pompey+ for pitching

 

Edit: Harper-No ;Stanton-wait and see, Cutch-Not right now

[L54]

Good thing all 3 of you came to make the same point.

lol ok i'm out

[FireAlexAnthopoulos]

The Three Stooges (Beeston, AA, Gibbons) need to be thrown out on their asses immediately. 21 years of no playoffs is f***ing embarrassing and it looks like it'll be 22 soon.

[Angrioter]

Navarro for Shawn Tolleson

[FireAlexAnthopoulos]

There is positivity in all this losing. This crap will be blown up at the deadline

 

Rogers will be trotting out this fraud team all year and won't even make a move at the deadline. Let's be real now. It's Toronto sports - tickets and merchandise sales > winning.

I tried defending you, but it was all for naught.

[King]

How about Hoffman + Pompey + DJ Davis for Trout + Garrett Richards?

 

Edit:

 

oh ok

 

This reminds me of the time when we questioned the Kalbots if they would trade Kal for Trout

[Daniel Labude]

lol ok i'm out

 

Harper is Lawrie but more consistent with more power, I still think Stanton has been impacted by the HBP, and Cutch is enticing but I'd rather see Hoffman before I'd do that.

 

Northof49- probably even though not sold on Richards this year yet. Lots of walks.

[o2cui2i]

why did the fantasy guys take over the fire Gibbons thread? lol

 

slow night in the fantasy world?

[Daniel Labude]

It's cool, I know my opinion isn't well liked. From what I have seen of Hoffman I think he can be a star. I would definitely trade other people for the names mentioned

[Daniel Labude]

Holy s***.

 

Great input...come back anytime

[BTS]

I can see not wanting to trade Hoffman for Stanton. You can very easily defend passing on that contract.

[GD]

Holy s***.

 

shh

[o2cui2i]

Great input...come back anytime

 

you're in over your head mate. quit while you are really far behind.

the scary thing is that some team will take that contract off Miami at some point.

Whichever team hires AA.

[Daniel Labude]

How many games have you seen Hoffman pitch? I'm curious to know what your opinion is based on.

 

As much as I can. Obviously mainly in college through highlights, game replays, etc. Lots of film was out there leading up to the draft last year.

[reedjohnsonfan]

Lol somehow this guy is getting a reaction by suggesting that he wouldn't trade Hoffman for anything.

[Daniel Labude]

you're in over your head mate. quit while you are really far behind.

 

It's cool. I really believe in Hoffman, so if people want to rag on me it's fine.

[GD]

It's cool. I really believe in Hoffman, so if people want to rag on me it's fine.

 

Do you believe Hoffman can reach close to the 10 win marks Trout usually reaches?

[Stangstag]

It's cool. I really believe in Hoffman, so if people want to rag on me it's fine.

 

So you wouldn't trade Hoffman (possible top-10 prospect) for McCutchen (NL MVP) straight up?

[GD]

Hoff will be a perennial twenty game winnah. Don't be silly.

 

don't

[Daniel Labude]

Not right now. Need to see Hoffman post TJ to be make an opinion one way or the other.

[Daniel Labude]

Hopefully more like Felix...hard for a pitcher to get that high

[Boxcar]

Still don't think he should be traded until we see how he pans out.

 

There should be some sort of competency test you have to take to be allowed to express opinions on this board.

[o2cui2i]

It's cool. I really believe in Hoffman, so if people want to rag on me it's fine.

 

do you also realize that they are making fun of you? lol you've made it into a sport mate. I give you props for dragging them away from the off topic section, but you really should listen to the guys who know the numbers.

 

 

but if you dont mind them picking on you, have at it.

[Daniel Labude]

Tell me when you pass it

[King]

Tell me when you pass it

 

oh s***
