  1. Assuming the Yankees do get under this year, I would expect them to go nuts next year on pitching. I could even see them try to get Scherzer, Tanaka, AND Kershaw.
  2. Maybe they'd consider something along the lines of Gausman and Schloop for Sanchez, Santos, and Happ? That would clear about 9M for us, while giving us a pitcher ready to step into the rotation now and a possible fix for 2nd base. They'd get their closer, an affordable starter to replace Gausman in their 2013 rotation, and a starter to replace Gausman on their prospect list (just pushed back a year).
  3. Think Youk would have bought it if we told him he could live in an igloo if he came here for cheap? Lots of life experience in that I'd imagine, especially when it's 30 above in the summer...
  4. That goes without saying
  5. There should be another tier between ban and full poster. Perhaps a title of "JPA's biggest fan" and a temporary replacement of the avatar with a dunce cap.
  6. Kev needs to step up his game! There's still time for a late push for the title.
  7. I think Chappy just replaced Gsnarls as my favorite mod this week!
  8. I doubt it since Janssen only has 1 year left, but maybe they'd consider Santos.
  9. So, when does the tell-all book come out explaining how this was all planned in advance by the mods and NJH to scare the crap out of the annoying posters?
  10. Lmao! I hope Boras can't get anything over 5/80 now. I don't have anything against the players selecting Boras as the agent, but I'd sure love to see one of these ridiculous moves by him spectacularly backfire once in a while.
  11. He even basically SAYS he wants to go back to the old forum. Who are we to deny him that opportunity? We should encourage him
  12. Now that the O's seem to be stuck on the relief side of things (let's face it, considering Rodney at 10M / year is definitely stuck), I wonder if we could pry away Schoop?
  13. At least this discussion is a hell of a lot more fun to follow that what's been going on around here the last few days.
  14. I don't think anyone would disagree that Sanchez has the better stuff, and if everything goes right will have the far better career. He's also a much higher risk to bust. Stroman will probably be a #3 starter (maybe #2 if he's lucky), but he's reasonably likely imo to reach that projection. If we had a poll on who had the higher upside, there's no doubt that Sanchez would be above Stroman.
  15. If either of Stroman or Sanchez puts up 26 WAR in 9 years as a starter, I doubt anyone here would complain. Either one of them having that kind of career would be big win for us.
  16. 5 days was probably a bit excessive, but 24 hours would have perhaps been appropriate. I like having some of the humor etc, but threads continually being hijacked by people with their little pissing matches (or who's only purpose is to tick people off rather than actually support a position or contribute to the community) makes people wade through piles of crap they aren't here for. There's definitely a lot of people who should have gotten a time out before NJH did imo. Still, directing it at a mod (even partially in joking) wasn't the brightest thing in the world.
  17. I would have d'Arnaud as the #4 prospect, if not lower.
  18. I think both sides of the argument are equally valid. The fact that we have two guys of their caliber who are so different is awesome! It's too bad we can't make it a 3 way race with Syndergaard.
  19. What would you say if the price was Sanchez? We have no idea what other teams are offering that we'd have to beat. I definitely want one of them too, but let's not complain yet.
  20. Honestly? Quite a bit, but I'd like to expand it to include Michael Saunders as well.
  21. I'd definitely rather pay that for a proven guy than close to that (when posting fee is factored in) for a guy who's ceiling might be Hamels if everything goes right.
  22. Almost certainly not, but if THAT didn't fix the rotation nothing will...
  23. Even if he did trade them, it would be smarter for him to eat a bunch of salary and get a BIG return than to expect another team to eat it all for a minimal one.
  24. I like this version of Gsnarls lol
  25. I think they'd need more for Scherzer too, and with 1 year left for him I'm not sure I'd want to give up even Sanchez to be honest. I think you can rule out Price too (they're asking for even more than Shark and Sale). Lee, Hamels, or Chacin could be interesting.
