    I know it's popular to hate on AA these days, but I really only think the Dickey trade was an awful idea. Particularly in light of JPA's obvious failures and lack of judgement in trading away D'Arnaud. Marlins trade Rasmus trade Delabar trade Recent Phillies trade for Kratz Even Snider All OK moves by me. And his lack of signing a good FA pitcher like Annibal Sanchez I cut him slack because we know he tried. But it still stinks because had we landed Darvish or Sanchez he would not have made the Dickey trade. Tired of lamenting that but there it is.

    It certainly is. But I stand by liking the trade, as embarrassing to say as that might be now. It instantly made the ML team better by any reasonable projection. But Bonifacio and Johnson were such unmitigated disasters it didn't work out. At all. No one would have ever figured those two would be that bad. Hence my original comment that the Marlins trade was victimized by bad "luck". You can counter that by saying Boni had bad peripherals and Johnson an injury history and that's fair. But wow bad luck all around too.

    Choo and Tanaka is who I'm thinking

    Though the Toronto Blue Jays general manager would prefer not to sign players to contracts of more than five years, he has the flexibility to do so. “We’ve said ‘six, will you bend a little,’ I think we haven’t ruled it out,” Anthopoulos said Tuesday. “Our preference is certainly five. We’ve never had to deviate from that.” That flexibility could provide Anthopoulos with an edge should he decide to bid aggressively for top free agents or pursue Masahiro Tanaka, the 25-year-old Japanese ace who’s expected to be made available to MLB teams.

    First I've heard this http://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/blue-jays-five-year-club-policy-is-flexible/

    We we talking about Gose, who is blazing fast but not actually good at stealing bases.
  9. G-Snarls
    AFAIC he got bent over by the Mets, but the Marlins trade mostly went bad due to incredibly poor luck

    He needs to teach Lawrie and Gose how it's done 800: As a YANKEE? Booooooo. I'd forgotten that detail. Plus that throw probably had him beat. LOL

    I do love a good three-way
  14. G-Snarls
    I was wondering when you'd show up LOL

    Just another 15 million to pitch in Buffalo #Ouch

    Now that I've copied and pasted them in here, and looked at them closely, those contracts are even worse than I thought How can you control payroll with all those escalating salaries and insane number of vesting options???
  17. G-Snarls
    Plus dead weight like Romero in AAA
  18. G-Snarls
    I still want to think AA would not have traded Edwin for Price straight up
  19. G-Snarls
    I can't imagine Player and MLBPA would have to agree and I can't see that happening, and might be just totally against the MLB rules
  20. G-Snarls
    Though base stealing is a skill Gose could outrun Davis in a 100 yard dash, but he is not (yet) nearly as skilled a base stealer
  21. G-Snarls
    You'll be disappointed to hear then that we instead now have the former (edit just noticed the can't steal part doesn't apply to Gose but still...)
  22. G-Snarls
    9-10M over two years is being reported
  23. G-Snarls
