    I really hope that the OF solution isn't status quo. They have Mayberry/Dirks in LF which you probably pencil in for like 0 WAR, Pillar who might be an OK 4th OF, and Pompey, who could be anywhere from above-average to terrible. If this is the group they plan on rolling with, I don't think they get a whole lot from their OF outside of Bautista.
  2. BTS
    He's 24 before the season starts, and has 400+ successful PA in at AA, so he could be used from opening day. They should probably have a solid contingency plan in place in the not-unlikely event that he struggles though.
  3. BTS
    Yeah. People are acting like Travis is a solid bet to come in and be a league-average starter. That's probably not going to happen yet.
  4. BTS
    I don't think the Tigers were tricked. Gose is the same age as Travis, and probably not worse - just different. They have Kinsler at 2B, and a 500K 4th OF who can play plus defense at all three positions and provide big value on the bases is a nice asset. Fair trade.
  5. BTS
    I'm not saying it's a bad move. I like Travis. Just pointing out that Gose isn't nothing. I liked that skill set.
  6. BTS
    OK. Travis has a legit chance to be a league-average 2B immediately. Losing Gose is a hit though.

    I have a lot of grievances to air with you people. I'll see you guys tomorrow tonight ready to bring the pain.
  8. BTS
    It's only a matter of time until a Grilli/Miller/Robertson/Romo is a Blue Jay.

    North is the forum's best poster? http://www.theprospect.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/funny-gif-man-jump-out-the-window.gif
  10. BTS
    Yeah, and like Terninator said he's been unable to land a deal like this. This deal is just insane.
  11. BTS
    lol
  12. BTS
    More likely now. This is precedent setting. A 36-year old bat-only player has never received money like this (IIRC). Bau will be looking at 4/80 and Edwin like 5/100 if they have good 2016 seasons.
  13. BTS
    So now Edwin and Jose will be looking for 4/80+ after 2016.
  14. BTS
    Jesus. This is one of the most egregious signings ever.
  15. BTS
    lmao @ 4/72 for a 36-year old DH.
  16. BTS
    I think he's more of a 1-1.5 win guy. Next year. And he's going to get 3-4 years.
  17. BTS
    Yeah. BP has him at -13 runs (-1.3 wins) and Carruth has him at -20 runs. Wherever his true talent lies, I think we can be comfortable assuming his awful receiving eliminates most of the value his league-average bat provides. The Pirates are the kind of org that's aware of this.
  18. BTS
    Oh god not Markakis
  19. BTS
    Pretty good haul for Reyes.
  20. BTS
    Can we get bans for unlinked NWS (see: In The News Thread). Being able to browse the forum at work without worrying about nudity is kind of nice.
  21. BTS
    I don't think I've seen a single respectable poster blame hockey for anything payroll-related.
  22. BTS
    He's not above-average though. He's replacement-level.
  23. BTS
    No. I just don't think there's any chance you get Melancon for Happ, especially if they're taking on Navarro.
  24. BTS
    The Pirates have a pretty good front office now. They know that Navarro is replacement-level. I'd be surprised if they rostered him for league min, let alone $5 M, let alone trading assets to roster him at $5 M. I also think people are significantly overestimating the value Happ has around the league. A 32-year old 1-1.5 win SP with 1/6.7 left on his deal just isn't a sexy asset. I think you're looking at a decent (not elite) pre-arb pen arm or something if you move him.
  25. BTS
    He's actually not terrible defensively.
