"HERPDERP on BJMB is a garbage clown"

So is there any conceivable package we could table for Fernandez that doesn't include Stroman?

 

Maybe Sanchez or Osuna + Pompey + Alford + Harris? I would give up pretty much anything and everything.

 

 

There is no way they are actually looking to move him, they are basically saying with the right offer he's available just like every player in the bigs not named Trout or Harper.

I don't think that's true. It sounds like they are in active trade discussions with multiple teams.

I'd be more than shocked if he gets moved, in fact if you put together a premium package for him I'd reach out to every single team first to see who they would part with for the same package.

Why the hell are the Yankees so insistent on trading Miller?

 

The forearm soreness he had last year. He's going to break soon.

Jays closer to making a move

f*** just saw Stoetens tweet

 

I can see King being a future Stoeten. That might be his best case scenario though.

Joel Sherman: Axford gets 2 yrs at $10M with chance to earn $4M in game finished bonuses from #Athletics @susanslusser had signing 1st.

 

Damn, looks like it will take at least 2/10 to get Blanton.

the heck, I read earlier (I think Rosenthal?) that it was $1 million. Oh well. I would've done 1 year 5m.

[BTS]

$10M guaranteed for Axford? Has Billy Beane lost his mind?

[Laika]

Sherman has to be wrong.

[Frenchsoup]

Has the Lawrie return been put out there yet?

[G-Snarls]

$10M guaranteed for Axford? Has Billy Beane lost his mind?

 

10M base for 2 years plus potential extra 4M in incentives?

[G-Snarls]

[Laika]

10M base for 2 years plus potential extra 4M in incentives?

 

I think it has to be 2 years @ $1M with 4M in incentives.

 

So a deal that can escalate to $10M in total...

 

I'm still saying typo by Sherman

[G-Snarls]

Oooooooo

This^. I read it was 1 million guaranteed for Axford

[HERPDERP]

I tried to find the original tweet that sent it out but I guess it was deleted. I'm thinking Slusser.

[G-Snarls]

Tyson Ross?

 

Hmmmmmmmmmm

Confirmed by Heyman.

 

john axford is $10M of course with a's. may bad (typing deficiency). 2 yrs. @Joelsherman1 had it right

 

Beane has lost his ever loving mind.

[Orgfiller]

Reading a Heyman tweet is just the worst.

[BTS]

lmao at 10M for Axford

[Laika]

yikes

[Dr. Dinger]

Why is Billy Beane so lauded, again? He's never won even a pennant, his record as a GM is basically .500 over the last 10 years, and he's made a bunch of dumbass trades. Moneyball was just an epic crock of s*** that completely glossed over the fact that his team had 3 ace level pitchers in their prime. The Donaldson and Samardzija trades were both firable offenses. I just really don't get it, at all.

[GD]

what is Billy Beane
