  1. I just looked - surprised how few tickets are for sale on Stubhub I suppose that's because most reg season games have lots of tickets on sale there from season ticket holders, and this doesn't apply here
  2. I'd love that too "Paving the road for Bonds"
  3. Bonds will get in within the next 3-4 tries I think
  4. Me neither He's just not quite good enough
  5. Awesome re Thomas. Sure hope he was clean...
  6. Not yet but I'm probably going
  7. Amsterdam it is then!
  8. Who's the guy next to Stroman??
  9. Yep. He pretty much has to spend. And he can buy pitching. But do you go Tanaka 6 years 120M plus 20M posting or Jiminez for 4 years 56M. That's a LOT more money for a guy who with very probably be better. How much better?? No one really knows...
  10. Credit to Frenchsoup for finding the GIF, I just posted it inline
  11. In a shockingly unshocking revelation, Jim Bowden thinks the Blue jays will sign a free agent starter this off season http://insider.espn.go.com/blog/the-gms-office/post?id=8593
  12. http://gamereax.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/bautistatee.gif
  13. LOL great GIF. Jose certainly got all of that breaking ball up in the zone. Should probably avoid serving those up to him...
  14. I know AA likes him but may not be able to afford. Ick to those last 2 years: 2014 33 Cincinnati Reds $11,000,000 2015 34 Cincinnati Reds $12,000,000 2016 35 Cincinnati Reds $13,000,000 2017 36 Cincinnati Reds $14,000,000 His 4 WAR seasons are likely all done.
  15. I am greedy and still want Goins and Gose in backup roles, at least for now May have a different opinion after the 2014 season but for now I want Rasmus and a major league proven 2B who won't be a black hole in the lineup. We need it since our rotation is going to be no better than average even if we do sign Jiminez.
  16. Yep Give it to him. Now. He may get greedier after Tanaka signs. Take advantage of the protected first round pick for once! That gives us a big advantage over teams like KC or Baltimore and a whole bunch of other teams who would like to add a starter but want to keep their mid-level first rounder.
  17. Imagine how much more confident you would feel if you trusted that Morrow would give you 180 innings. But that's the whole problem - you can't count on him.
  18. Yep. Just do it. But address 2B too.
  19. I've made up my mind after waffling on who I want AA to sign. Give Jimenez 4 years 55-60M (probably less than 1/2 of what Tanaka would cost and he probably doesn't want to come here) Trade bullpen piece plus a non top 3 prospect for a 2B Let it ride Mid season make a tweak depending on how Morrow/Hutch/Drabek/Stroman are doing. Keep Sanchez and Stroman if at all possible
  20. It is a good read And I agree totally the system is messed up and needs drastic changes
  21. In an interview with Peter Gammons, Scott Boras expressed his confidence that Stephen Drew and Kendrys Morales will find good contracts with teams that will put more value on their contributions than the value of (possibly second- or third-round) draft picks. With that said, Boras also believes the free agent system needs to be changed to give players more freedom and to encourage teams to spend. “We should be doing everything possible to try to get smaller market teams the necessary veteran leadership to contend,” Boras said. His suggestions include banning qualifying offers for players over 30 years old, and a monetary compensation system for teams who lose free agents under age-30 that the clubs can re-invest in signings or draft spending. http://www.gammonsdaily.com/peter-gammons-scott-boras-and-his-vision-for-the-future-of-baseball/
  22. He cheaped out at catcher to save $. I fully expect he does in fact have the budget for a starter. No way ownership would prevent him from signing one starter via free agency when everyone knows how much such a signing is needed.
