It's 1 million + 1.5M buyout on a 4M option for next year. Get pissed bro!
-
You've said it yourself. Maybe you need a tattoo as a reminder. How about "I'm Dumn"
-
Ismael Guillon, plz. LH Velocity + 70 grade change up. Throw him in the pen and tell him to forget about the breaking ball.
-
Reds sign Badenhop and DFA Ismael Guillon. Guillon is a guy that you should want. ("factor on the farm" in recent Reds top 10) Here is a pre-2013 report (ranked #6 in Reds top 10):

Trust your evaluations.... unless you're Boxy. Then defer.

Done!
-
Woah, when did this happen? You realize that I'm responsible for like, half of your legit keepers? Do you want me to turn off that pipeline of my leftovers?
-
five batters faced, five K's. Perfect
-
People are sleeping on Blackburn a bit too. KATOH loves him. http://www.hardballtimes.com/katoh-forecasting-major-league-pitching-with-minor-league-stats/ Still not a great trade though. Rodon could have fetched a productive MLB piece. Honestly he probably would have been most of the way to any of Hurl's legit 3B, Longo included. sigh.

Of course that's projecting from 23 innings, lol. Happy Birthday, Roberto!

Open the full spreadsheet. Sort by WAR through age 28 or chance for > 16 WAR Observe who is above Julio Urias.

I just don't really believe in a "Bautista window". I've always thought that that was a kind of really stupid compartmentalized thinking. What if you sign Shields and then Jose breaks his leg in April? What if Shields' contract four or five years from now contributes to an inability to lock up Stroman, Norris, Sanchez, Hutch, Pompey, for their prime years? Having elite vet talent and a solid team does mean that Toronto needs to make every effort to win now, but it doesn't mean they should operate like a myopic. How about a non replacement level player for 2B, how about trading Navarro for a reliever because he makes a terrible DH, how about building a robust 25 man with depth everywhere? Signing Shields and then calling the roster complete would be a rehash of everything that has made Toronto consistent also rans in the AA era. Studs and duds is the roster archetype issue. Toronto has the studs. They just need less duds.

Giving a 33 year old pitcher the type of money and years that it would likely take to lure him to Toronto strikes me as, almost categorically, a bad idea. Obviously there's some price where it makes sense.
-
No thanks.
-
Dude had 400+ hits+blocks last season, and the secondary assists potential in Tampa is pretty high.
-
Kane is pretty overrated. (IRL, not really in a league that counts hits and shots).
-
You dangled Harvey for Moss? lolol
-
I think they call that an "amputation".
-
It's not his MCL. It's his meniscus. Much, much less serious. http://thesteadmanclinic.com/education/assets/3_4_view.gif
-
He doesn't really have any other viable trade options. A few guys that are just too good to deal, Allen Craig who nobody wants, Ortiz who would be tough to find a value match for. Only other option would maybe have been to trade Pujols.
-
Moss is obviously legit, it's just that the batting average seems precarious enough going forward that his perceived value will wary wildly from person to person. I think.
-
Hmmm. Fiers might have been a good gamble if you're chasing upside in a K/BB league. Moss has way more value than him though. Well, at least you got younger.
-
I'd say Spanky wins. Higher upside for Moss in the short term, and in the long term arms like Hendo are not difficult to find.
-
He's actually more of an OBPA liability. Groundballers tend to be - give up too many singles.

I'll give you pick 73, offer detonates in 5 minutes
