could be done already

 

[flafson]

Could have just signed him 2 years ago, ffs

 

We tried, he didn't want to come.

[RealAccountant]

Meanwhile on the Twins board....

Lmao

[bowld]

I don't mind it if we are simply taking on the contract. I wouldn't want to see anything of value going back though

Lol.

 

Greene would be likely ... or Rios as the main piece. SRF would not be on the table

[jays_fever]

Lol team signs mediocre started, fans want teams 3 top prospects for him year later

Are they confusing Ervin Santana with Chris Sale?

[John_Havok]

We tried, he didn't want to come.

 

More to it than that, but he got a last minute better offer and took it

[bowld]

LoL

[TheHurl]

Montas, Holmes and Cotton for Reddick and Hill. Nice deal for both teams. I know I'm 30 minutes behind but I just don't care enough about Santana.

[West Texas Forever]

We need Hutch for next year when Dickey and his f***ing sidekick dick off to retirement.

Lmao wtf

 

Has that ever happened before?

 

Did they give him back for free?

[saskjayfan]

if we give anything significant and take on 3 years of money for a guy who will be 36 in his last year of the contract, I will be very sad

Huh? Are Marlins getting anything back?

[HERPDERP]

Hopefully we ship off Chavez too

[King]

Twins Fans want SRF, Greene and Perdomo. Smh

[RealAccountant]

Probably nothing prospects going over to Minny

I can say I'd rather pay Santana 13.5 million than pay Dickey plus Thole their combined 12.8.

 

It's probably not rational...but what can I say. I hate 1 trick pony pitchers

[Captain Adama]

Santana suxxxxx

[G-Snarls]

Hmmmm, really?

[HERPDERP]

Probably nothing prospects going over to Minny

 

Not really, he's been pitching well this year. Maybe #10-15 ranked prospects?

[G-Snarls]

Santana suxxxxx

 

Is he better than RA Dickey right now

[BTS]

Santana would be a nice addition. Above-average starter who has been very durable, and his contract is very nice: 13.5M in 2017 and 2018 and then a 14M team option in 2019 and vesting option in 2020. If he comes at a cost of very little prospect capital, he's a nice mid-rotation starter that could be here for 3-4 years.

 

And he probably means no Dickey/Thole next year.

12:37pm: ESPN’s Jerry Crasnick now tweets that a medical issue may be holding up the Mets’ acquisition of Bruce. Crasnick adds that the severity of the issue isn’t known, but the medicals are no longer a formality.

Gtfo.

[fatcowxlive]

They gave up Henderson Alvarez up for free because of a shoulder injury earlier in the year too

[RealAccountant]

Santana is better than Dickey and quite frankly I am sick and tired of seeing Thole's mug around these parts

[Captain Adama]

Probably not enough to warrant giving up much in the way of prospects. But it'll be a lot better on my psyche, (still not worth giving up prospects for.)
