  1. Yes, I get that now. But extended spring training is a thing. Prospects don't usually do that.
  2. Oh so Alford was already in TO? I've been in Vegas so I'm out of the loop. That's kind of weird he should be playing somewhere not sitting around in TO. That would explain why everyone is convinced he's coming up then.
  3. He seemed to relish in the fact that he was now the "clubhouse veteran" but you could be right in that some behind the scenes stuff pushed this deal along as well.
  4. Yeah I agree.. Moving Kendrys already facilitated more playing time anyway. It's a long season too, someone is going to get hurt which frees up even more playing time. The likelihood of Jonathan Davis or some other turd OF logging 300+ ABs this year is pretty high right now. That said, I'm not that upset about it. It's a rebuild, we create more roster space for certain young players (while not that valuable it's a thing), we pinch some pennies (another thing), we got a lotto ticket (probably the best thing out of this) and a couple of guys that perhaps the FO sees something in (however unlikely). Not happy with it but meh.
  5. Yeah I don't think Alford has been banging the door down to get into the big leagues. Despite his advanced age he really doesn't even have that many ABs. A half season in AAA would probably do him some good. I wonder if that's still the plan though and they'll bring Pompey off the DL? Or is Alford a given?
  6. Giants easily win this deal. They are getting ~4 WAR over the next two years at a price cheap enough that is very likely to provide surplus value. Hanson was DFA'd and is out of options. He generally sucks anyway and might not be any better than Urena. Not sure I would even want to bother making the corresponding roster moves to keep him on the roster. I'm not sure what to make of Law, he's been ok in his career and Steamer seems to like him but he fell out of favor with the Giants too and has been below replacement the last two years. Juan De Paula looks like a lottery ticket.
  7. He gone. For Alen Hanson, Derek Law and Juan De Paula.
  8. This manager is going to get crucified by baseball media for this.
  9. Pretty surprising they took him out but they probably have a better chance for a combined no hitter anyway.
  10. Hes not really a fringe player though! Steamer has him projected for 1 WAR in 50 games. He is pretty fun though, his baserunning is hilarious. I've never seen someone fat run that fast.
  11. Dan Straily was DFA'd by the Marlins. Seems a little surprising.
  12. Not a huge fan but I'd rather have him back than not.
  13. What's the appeal with Hudson? Seems like he kind of stinks to me.
  14. It's not too late to acquire him, friend.
  15. Jen Ramos is scouting now? lol
  16. It's a long season and 40-60 innings from Axford doesn't really preclude young guys from eventually playing. We are already getting stung and at this point I wouldn't be surprised if total non-prospect types get added to the 40 man to throw innings at some point during the year.
  17. Geezus f***. I've been pimping him all ST but this might be the final straw.
  18. That would be a great trade for us but also makes some sense for the s***** ass Royals.
  19. I wonder if Pompey has been traded? Romano is back. Injuries to Axford and Tepera so we could probably use him.
  20. Everyone thought I was crazy for even asking if Luciano was going to make the team but at this point it has to be a big question mark. Sending him back and freeing up a 40 man spot has to be pretty tempting for the FO right now.
  21. 100 million isn't enough for the boat I'd buy
  22. Yeah he'll negotiate an extension if he has to.
