  1. Alford is an above ground prospect now. Even the likes of Tim & Sid know who he is.
  2. Yeah I'm surprised that AA went the rental route too.
  3. With the exception of his infinite patience with Sanchez, AA doesn't seem to forgive bad seasons from prospects and that's what he was getting from Labourt and Norris. If it wasn't for the fact that Boyd is having an awesome season, this would look like a high profile version of the J.A. Happ trade.
  4. I'm not so sure that in 2015, Boyd is any better of an option than Randy Wolf or Liam Hendriks. Might even be worse and Norris simply wasn't turning it around quickly enough and wasn't really a good option either. Might look like a bad trade as soon as next year but I don't see any big issue for 2015.
  5. I agree that Flores should have been benched if they were negotiating a trade involving him. He's not a superstar, I doubt a benching would even raise much of an eyebrow. That was dumb but I still don't think it's a big deal and I don't buy anything else of what you're selling.
  6. Only way losing Pompey works is if Cespedes is coming back. Otherwise LF will be to this team what 2B was to the previous "all-in" push.
  7. Heartening. I don't love Alford as much as most but it would be nice to not completely empty the holster for David Price.
  8. Someone not nearly close enough to the majors to get invested in what the parent club is doing.
  9. People forget that Alford is still basically a lottery ticket. I would have been more than fine with him or Norris but both seems steep and I just figured after the Tulo trade that AA would only cash in his chips for someone with at least 2016 control. This is risky as f***. Can't see AA keeping his job if they still miss the playoffs after this.
  10. Might North be right though? Were there any legitimate openings for Olivera?
  11. OMG you're being dense about this. It wasn't leaked early. It was leaked about the same time trades usually hit the press. The only reason this is newsworthy is that a player was rejected for health reasons, something that rarely ever happens, and the teams had to pull out. Stop trying to make a mountain out of this. This isn't all that different that what happened with Matt Kemp in the off season. Did people stop dealing with the Dodgers over that?
  12. No one's going to stop making trades with them over this. Fans will move on. This is a blip on the radar.
  13. What long term outcome? Leaking trades that will go through 99% of the time anyways is completely inconsequential.
  14. Hopefully it was just the injury/being out of the lineup that had him bummed out.
  15. Tulo - Witzky clap-clap clap-clap-clap. Jamie Campbell f***ed it up though and did clap-clap-clap Tulo!
  16. I actually PVRed last night's game something I usually never bother doing because there's too many games in the season to care too much about the odd ones I miss but this was the exception. Watched everything about an hour after it happened. Really fun game to watch.
  17. Kershaw might hit the DL.
  18. Backing out from a trade you wanted to do anyways because of a leak would be incredibly short-sighted. This was a good trade for the Mets and I highly doubt they would have backed out of it for something so trivial.
  19. Who says it was their organization? Leak could have just as easily come from the Brewers side. The fact that it was on their page means nothing since MLB media is centralized.
  20. Deal was leaked by the media. Not really anything the Mets could do about it.
  21. No there was no trade. Rumour is the Mets turned it down after reviewing the medical file on Gomez.
  22. Aww... poor guy.
