  1. Man, Price is lucky he got that knee up. That ball was labelled.
  2. You can make lineup changes (and I think trades), you just can't add a player.
  3. You guys should take lots of Leafs players. Those of us trying to win will take, you know, good players
  4. Maybe pissed off Bautista is better than the boost we'd get from a trade...
  5. Hmmm, wonder what Spanky's price would be now?
  6. His price tag may be coming down to where it would make sense to resign him. Might not be such a bad thing.
  7. If it is TJS, any team that picked him up would've had to pay 25M next year for him not to pitch for them (depending on insurance), plus either 12.5M buyout or 27.5M the following year. That's a lot of cash for a cheerleader.
  8. Man, any teams on him just dodged a big bullet if that's the case.
  9. No kidding! It's too bad they can't do a reality show on it, but they'd probably never get another player to sign with them again lol.
  10. I bet they'd go after Pederson and Guerrero, then trade Zobrist for a haul.
  11. Rasmus to Seattle for Nick Franklin would be nice
  12. People tend to salivate a little too much over prospects at times (not that I want to lose any of ours mind you, I love them too). When GM's trade older guys for hyped prospects, everyone considers them genius. When they make a now move instead of perpetually rebuilding, they're idiots. We're seeing it this year with Beane (Jim Johnson anyone?). He's the same GM he was before, just in a different phase for the organization.
  13. Dunno, I'm just watching the webcast.
  14. Good god this MLB network coverage is hard on the ears. Russo needs to stop climbing octaves while yelling.
  15. Yikes. This one I DON'T like for us (but Craig going to Fenway is AWESOME for my fantasy team).
  16. I actually like this deal for Oakland (and for us for that matter). I'd much prefer Cespedes going to the Sox for 1.5 years that they're unlikely to seriously compete during (and no QO) than an elite young player we'd be facing for the next decade going there. The A's have had a great offense all season, so they can likely take the hit of losing Cespedes. They basically turned a competitive balance pick + ~2.5 to 3 WAR (over a full season) Cespedes for 4 to 5 WAR Lester and probably 1 WAR Gomes. Just watch them go out and sign Rusney Castillo now to replace Cespedes.
  17. Since I guess BTS clock is up, Abomination selects Chase De Leo, a center with the Winnipeg Jets. Jaysguy is on the clock, with JFaS/TRM x2, Jaysblue, and BTS able to select at any time.
  18. I'm interested in what people here view Hellickson's price as. Seems no one in the BBDL wants anything to do with him (which is fine, I'm perfectly happy holding onto him this year as he rebuilds his value, I'm just concerned I can't protect him in the offseason).
  19. That's only useful when Lind isn't injured though remember, and also doesn't take into account what Lind might bring in trade (not a blue chip prospect, but not org guys either). This last one with his foot was a fluke, but he seems to have a really bad back which is almost guaranteed to pop up at least a few times a year. I don't think it's unreasonable to suggest that Francisco could provide equal overall value over the course of an average year, especially when you add in the ability to kind of fill in at 3rd periodically. I'd be sad to see Lind go (I was probably one of the few that didn't want him DFA'd a few years ago), but I can see an argument for trading him and going with Francisco.
  20. I'm kind of wondering if this might be in consideration for this off-season, although I think they get something for Lind via trade. Probably saves 4+ mil. Some potential drop in the bat, but probably not enough to make up for the salary difference if it's spent wisely.
  21. At least you didn't insist on Robbie Ross instead of Tyson Ross like I did ... Man did I get that one wrong.
