  1. Garcia was right out instantly. Kinda rough not to call that a catch.
  2. Phillies had one starter's arm turn to hamburger meat, and another that probably couldn't digest any.
  3. Hopefully turned him into JD Martinez
  4. I would expect more along the lines of Pillar, Hernandez/Pearce, and a FA. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see Aoki move in August to a contender.
  5. Well, Stroman has two extra years of control also. Those matter (a lot). I'm not particularly fond of the return given the injury concerns all around, but there is some pretty significant upside in the package. Oakland could do very well with it. If they had waited until the offseason or next trade deadline, it's highly unlikely they would have done any better. edited: Hmm, I thought Gray was a free agent after 2018 for some reason.
  6. I'm not even opposed to him as a starter, on a one year deal (but obviously at much less than he's making this year). We really, really need at least one solid to high end SP this offseason, and there aren't many really good options. Arrieta, Darvish, and Otani are probably the big three (I don't think Tanaka will opt out). A guy like Estrada or Liriano would make a good 5th starter.
  7. Makes sense to wait until September, or if a trade is made in August. I could actually see Aoki traded later in the year if a contender has an injury and wants a fundamentally sound bench bat with some experience.
  8. Randy Johnson and Schilling probably give them a run, even if the rest of the rotation was meh. In 2002, they combined to go 47-12, with 650 strikeouts. In 2001, 43-12 with 665 strikeouts. Johnson came close to 400 k's that year.
  9. He's basically Stroman, both in size and in results.
  10. Willie Calhoun is a nice get for Texas in the Darvish deal. Big power with next to no strikeouts.
  11. It wasn't meant to be serious.
  12. Not that it matters now, but Zach Plesac would have been an interesting lottery ticket too.
  13. Triston McKenzie would be fantastic. I doubt it'll happen though.
  14. Soler would be fantastic. Not sure the Royals would be willing to lose face on that one though.
  15. That's a very good return for Liriano, who we might end up resigning again in the offseason anyway lol.
  16. I wonder if this is partly cover in case they decided to trade Pearce? He might have some actual value for a contender.
  17. But Aoki is! Your plan can live on!
  18. Aoki is actually arbitration eligible I think. Interesting. I wonder if we're eating the Liriano money AND taking Aoki to improve the return? Aoki + Hernandez would be fantastic.
  19. It'll most likely be someone on the 40 man.
  20. The correct lesson is, that's the last time I listen to Wilner.
  21. When you listen to the same guys, game after game, year after year, little things tend to start really bothering you. I think that's it more than anything else. I'll easily take them over guys who spend entire innings talking about what they ate for lunch, and stuff like that.
  22. Gotta give him credit for that one, for sure.
  23. How many pitches do you think it'll take for Revere to end up at 3rd? This is almost as bad a matchup as you could imagine.
