  1. I don't get why some people make such a big deal about JP. It almost makes me think they don't even watch the games. The only thing he has going for him is his power. Put any player up there and tell them to hack 90% of their AB's and let's see how many more HR's they hit at the expense of all other stats.
  2. Yup, Shark is a very good pitcher. With an extension, I don't think twice about dealing Sanchez.
  3. Yankees probably end up with a better team as a result. Watch them sign Choo and Infante now.
  4. It would have likely been a nothing prospect. Besides that, JP had no reason to agree to a new deal knowing he was going to be a FA.
  5. We better be getting two very good upgrades to the rotation if we're going to be having a black hole at 2B.
  6. This a not even a valid question.
  7. Yeah I was just kidding. KJ is clearly just a backup plan and a solid one at that.
  8. Lol, no way we are really in on Price.
  9. A small price to pay for a negotiation tactic, lol.
  10. Not bad considering further upgrades should be forthcoming.
  11. So where do we sit at right now?
  12. We're not getting Tanaka, so it's a moot point.
  13. Guess this one just went over your head. Forget about it.
  14. Realistically, I see Thole breaking camp as the backup and Kratz in AAA as insurance which we will likely need at some point anyways.
  15. Fair enough, but he added Navarro giving nothing up other than JP's salary. I am not saying this was the best way to address the catching position, but it still appears to be an overall improvement with pretty much no cost, other than Lincoln who was insignificant considering the relief options we have.
  16. You suggested they shouldn't play hardball with Cano.
  17. http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2013/12/yankees-close-to-signing-kelly-johnson.html. Link above.
  18. It's the cool thing to s*** on AA these days, but he has done a lot of good things that so many seem to forget. I like to consider all possible angles, and I do believe that part of the disastrous offseason last winter was in part due to the higher ups and AA made some foolish moves with his first taste of significant payroll. I have been more neutral on him since then and I have stated previously that this will be his defining season.
  19. It really seems like AA did his homework. Steamer has Navarro at 1.7 WAR and Kratz at 0.9 WAR for 2014. Not sure if they both combine for that type of impact, but overall, I really like what AA did here. It's the sum of these types of moves that could end up really paying off. If the Rays made these two moves, many here would be giving more credit to the FO. With essentially no change in payroll, AA has improved this team and set himself up nicely to make a bigger splash having already addressed the most pressing need.
  20. This actually looks like a pretty good move by AA.
  21. Yeah they should just give him $300 million no questions asked. That's the way to do it.
  22. Luckily you were the only one.
