    We probably would have with the arms if it wasn't for a few really poorly timed TJS.
  2. Abomination
    To get impact position players from the farm, it kind of helps to DRAFT impact position players ...

    I didn't say that, you said that Lind was better than Butler in almost every way last year, which is what I was responding to. I would easily take Butler over Lind, but I wouldn't give up a haul to do so.
  4. Abomination
    Very nice analysis. I love the depth and thought you guys are putting into these.
  5. Abomination
    I would take Butler over Lind in a heartbeat, especially if he never sees the field. And this comes from someone who likes Lind.
  6. Abomination
    I'm not sure I'd qualify him as a bust yet. Regardless, he has hit better outside of Safeco the last few years. Anyhow, the real prize would be Franklin.
  7. Abomination
    They could be very helpful regardless. Maybe Jack-Z will panic and do something like Lind + for Franklin and Smoak...
  8. Abomination
    Yeah, some of these things should have been in there. Mods can just merge them after a day or so though.
  9. Abomination
    If there were going to look at something like that, the Angels and Jays would probably just cut out the unnecessary team (Phillies) and deal directly.
  10. Abomination
    Yeah, the last one we did ended up being the Angel's regret!
  11. Abomination
    The Dodgers, they're trying to corner the market on them I think.
  12. Abomination
    You'd have to target it to contracts that were considered big at the time of signing. Otherwise the sample size would probably be too small.
  13. Abomination
    I thought last year he was going to be a breakout guy, especially after his torrid WBC. I still think there's a high end player there that hasn't managed to break out yet. He needs to get the hell out of Safeco.
  14. Abomination
    Stop jinxing us!
  15. Abomination
    It'll be even worse if they also sign an outfielder like Choo. I would love to get any of Ackley, Franklin, Miller, Triunfel, M Saunders (and some of their young pitching). Rasmus could be a perfect guy to send them if we don't feel we can extend him.

    Teams run in to both good and bad luck. Last year almost anything that could go wrong for us, did. That doesn't mean the talent on the team would project to last place this year with average luck. Opposite with the O's 2 years ago. They had incredibly good luck, but they weren't a 2nd place talent. This year they finished 4th. You can't just point to the standings and assume that even with no changes to a roster, they'd look anything close to the same the next year.
  17. Abomination
    Yeah, this scares the crap out of me (although until that haul starts impacting at the major league level it'll be nice having Price outside the division).
  18. Abomination
    Don't forget Drabek either! I'm actually really excited to see if he can continue his approach from last year. If so, I might put him as the first callup.
  19. Abomination
    If they do sign them, They certainly could help us fill our second base hole. Actually I wouldn't mind taking a flier on Smoak either.
  20. Abomination
    Whoever came up with that did a good job. I don't have a problem with players doing that, but I suspect the success rate is extremely low.
  21. Abomination
    I'm fine with running the valuations (and they should be run), I just don't believe it's proper to evaluate a trade solely based on surplus value.
  22. Abomination
    Not to mention that it's not all about surplus value, nor are things like increased revenue from attendance and tv factored in (difference between making the playoffs and missing for example). I'm not saying surplus value isn't important, but actual performance during a window of contention is as well.
  23. Abomination
    IF Cano really is the age he says he is, and IF the Mariners front load the contract heavily enough (and they certainly appear to have the financial ability to front load it), it might not be terrible for them.
  24. Abomination
    Tampa did it as part of the cost of getting another asset. The Oakland deal imo is still a questionable one.
  25. Abomination
    What on earth is up with the Dodgers signing expensive relievers?
