  1. So who's the odd one out? Carrera?
  2. Nice! Revere is a good player and fits in perfectly.
  3. Someone didn't want Revere because they were afraid he'd bat leadoff.
  4. I think he hits 8th or 9th.
  5. Agree! Huge upgrade on defense, nice guy to have on the bases.
  6. Yeah I don't think anyone believes Parra is a .328 hitter. Still a nice pickup, he could be a good hitter and is good defensively.
  7. "The Orioles have agreed to acquire Brewers outfielder Gerardo Parra, according to Dan Connolly of the Baltimore Sun (via Twitter). Prospect Zach Davies goes to Milwaukee in return. The deal is pending medical evaluations."
  8. Yankees apparently are in on Chapman. Miller, Betances, Chapman lights out after the 6th.
  9. ^^^ That's a really weird list.
  10. His BABIP was .290 last year and he still had an inflated ERA. I don't recall what his strand rate was. Obviously, anytime a guy has an ERA way above his xFIP there are going to be stats to suggest he'll turn it around. He just seems really inconsistent, and yes I am using the eye test but he tends to just lose it for periods. How many pitchers have had an ERA much higher (not 90 points but say 40-50) than their xFIP over a long career? Legitimate question I am curious.
  11. He's had an xFIP way below his ERA his whole major league career. At some point he needs to get results. He shouldn't be out of the rotation but are you buying him as a sub 4 ERA pitcher? I know I'm not.
  12. Most really high level prospects (like top 20-30 in baseball) end up having at least respectable careers though. Snider was considered a pretty big bust and he's at least been able to stick. Rasmus was a huge prospect and never reached his potential but has had a pretty good career so far.
  13. Ok now they're opening up the phone lines. Let's see what the casuals think of this deal.
  14. I agree, he is just finding a way to be negative. Anyone who is pissed at the trade irrationally loves Norris.
  15. Also if Pineda and maybe Nova are hurt that's a big blow.
  16. Where'd you see this? I'm busy and am too distracted here.
  17. Jon Morosi ‏@jonmorosi 36 secs36 seconds ago Anthony Alford is NOT in the deal, source says.
  18. I'd be happy with that. He should be really good for a few years still, the back end would be bad but by then they will be starting a rebuild. Whether that's the right way to run a team is another question.
  19. It's not a crippling deal at all. Norris' stock has been free falling.
  20. Guys who are complaining should just relax. We have no idea what other teams or the Jays even think of Norris at this point. Even though it's shortsighted it's DAVID PRICE!
  21. David Price ‏@DAVIDprice14 9 secs10 seconds ago I don't care what happens today...I'm taking BP at 2 in Camden no matter what...don't care what anyone says
  22. That's a really good point. They play the Yankees what 13 times still? Facing Price maybe 3 times vs having Price for those starts is a huge difference.
