  1. Would you give up Norris for Carrasco? How much more are you willing to sacrifice? I'd do it. But honestly I expect the Indians to ask for more. Carrasco has been STELLAR
  2. TIL Eric Brynes is still relevant
  3. Buster Olney ‏@Buster_ESPN 47s47 seconds ago OAK price for Toronto for Kazmir was something built around one of Jays' best pitching prospects -- too steep for Jays in a buyers' market. Looks like the Athletics felt jipped on the last deal...
  4. Jeff Passan ‏@JeffPassan 40s41 seconds ago Jays have lots of pieces that could be of interest: Jeff Hoffman, Daniel Norris, Dalton Pompey, Anthony Alford and more. Enough to go big.
  5. Jeff Passan ‏@JeffPassan 1m1 minute ago Sources: Cleveland has been willing to listen on pitching, particularly Carlos Carrasco. May be a match there with Toronto. They've talked. AWW s***
  6. I think we need to throw out the pick ranking and just go with prospect rankings. Norris obviously has a legitimacy as a top prospect but a guy like Pentecost has yet to do anything and seems to be injury prone, so his value is hit a bit. Maybe I'm a bit too low on a guy like Pentecost.
  7. I don't remember the rules for FA draft picks, but if they keep Price for the rest of the season, they get a pick, right? I guess that is the absolute minimum that they have to ask. Wouldn't hurt for them to ask for more. Like Norris and Pentecost.
  8. Don't you think its a safer bet to go with Price?
  9. User Actions Follow Marc NormandinVerified account ‏@Marc_Normandin So we're a few innings into the PawSox game and no update on Deven Marrero has come out. You're not helping my curiosity, everyone.
  10. The Yankees have the best rounded team in this division. The rotation is good enough to survive. The bullpen is stellar. The only question mark is offense, which right now is still pretty good but consists of players overperforming expectations (Tex and Arod) The rest of the division had an opportunity to bury the Yankees when they lost Tanaka, Miller and Ellsbury for an extended period of time. And now they're taking advantage of a full roster.
  11. Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 23s24 seconds ago Sources: #Astros get Kazmir.
  12. Susan Slusser ‏@susanslusser 21m21 minutes ago Also in the @sfchronicle: it looks as if Scott Kazmir will be dealt soon, and his hometown team is front runner: http://www.sfchronicle.com/athletics/article/A-s-probable-pitchers-6400528.php?t=51cea7cba53d4cb4da&cmpid=twitter-premium … So Houston
  13. Something brewing with #Athletics and Scott Kazmir. He just came out of Bob Melvin's office. Asst GM David Forst also in clubhouse.
  14. AWW s*** on Kroichick ‏@ronkroichick 1m1 minute ago Kazmir now hugging teammates goodbye. #Athletics will have new starter for today's game vs Blue Jays 16 retweets 2 favorites Reply Retweet16 Favorite2 Follow More
  15. "He would show up late for practices and games, and whenever he made a mistake he was quick to blame someone else. Pompey was an exceptionally talented player from a very young age; baseball had always come easily to him. But when he reached a point that his attitude was getting in the way of his ability, he knew he had to make a change. “I was stupid. I was immature. I made mistakes,” Pompey says. “I stopped working hard—I thought I was all talent. And then people started to pass me and that was a big eye-opener for me. I had to grow up. I had to take responsibility for my career and be accountable for things.” http://www.sportsnet.ca/baseball/mlb/the-remarkable-rise-of-dalton-pompey/
  16. you don't believe me, read up on all the goodies here: http://www.thestar.com/sports/bluejays/2015/03/20/hometown-hero.html fighting with teammates, jealousy, giving attitude to coaches.
  17. What is there to be sarcastic about? Go look up the interviews from his previous coaches. The guy has an attitude problem. And the mental problems made themselves clear with his infamous "playing scared" comments.
  18. Pompey is a headcase and mentally he won't last in the bigs. Alford is mature and a natural leader. Similar offensive tools to Pompey. Better defense. its a wash
  19. one day Kawasaki should do this
  20. Alford the next Moookie?
  21. Not sure if it was scheduled but Jon Garland was one. Many times a hitter was involved. The last one to come to mind was Delabar-Thames.
  22. If we lose, don't get mad guys. Its one of those games.
  23. I have some news for you...you may be straight.
  24. Most handsome contest Arencibia Goins Kiermaier Longo
