    I don't care if they trade him to the Yankees, just please get something good (not Frazier....unless he's the 2nd or 3rd best piece in the deal). I actually think Stro to the Yanks would be good for baseball. If Stro was an NBA or NFL player he'd be a big star with his personality. He'd fit well in NY.

    It's a Morosi tweet, so it's clickbait with no semblance of truth to it.
  3. glory
    Well, that didn't age well.

    I think people expecting anything in return for Galvis or Sogard are going to be very disappointed. Even a low A ball lottery ticket is asking a lot. More likely looking at a Waguespack type.

    Am I missing something with Kingham that everyone else is apparently seeing?
  6. glory
    Yeah Pillar since the trade is pretty much the same guy he's always been except with worse defence (to be expected with age). Still going to end up being a 1 WAR player, give or take. Hasn't completely fallen off a cliff yet.

    Is it wrong that I am rooting for Sanchez to lose 20 games this year? Not like he’s a trade asset, closer to a DFA/non tender candidate. Might as well get some entertainment seeing his big ego get deflated like that.

    Hopefully Giles is healthy enough to pitch tomorrow and Friday.
  9. glory
    Bo with 2 home runs today (game still not over). He mad.

    Looking at Font's numbers, why am I not surprised that the only time he was ever any good was with the Rays, and then sucked again immediately after he went somewhere else? God I hate the Rays. But yeah, Font can't hurt.

    They hired a sleazebag agent as their GM. They deserve everything they are getting.

    I would think the Twins would be more likely to trade Larnach and Balazovic, not Kirilloff and Graterol, but if I'm packaging Stro/Giles together, then the latter would have to be it. I still think Atkins trades them separately, but with Giles' injury, maybe combining the two would be better than trading them individually. Teams might be reluctant to trade for Giles alone given his injury, but packaged with Stroman they might be more willing to take that risk.

    I think Hudson will get dealt for a Waguespack/Espinal equivalent. Nothing worth getting excited over but depth to add to the farm.

    It's an odd numbered year, so Pearce being injured, sucking, or both was inevitable. He'll be great next year.
  16. glory
    Yup we are setting ourselves up to be disappointed, but blame The Athletic.
  17. glory
    Yeah I don't like Clint, but I think I'd be ok with that trade, although it would be even better if we flipped Frazier to a 3rd team for something + keep Garcia.
  18. glory
    Yeah I think James should be used as a SP but the Astros have him in relief, much like the Pirates did with Glasnow. Jays could pick him up and put him in the rotation. Five more years of control after this one. Although if a pitching saavy team like the Astros have him in relief when they have so many SP issues, then maybe that's a sign. I am not a fan of Fisher either (unless he plays an elite CF or something) but he was a former top prospect who has fizzled out. Hard to find a good comparable to Meadows on the Astros who they would realistically trade.
  19. glory
    Oh I agree, I am fearing scrolling on Twitter one day soon and seeing Frazier as the centerpiece for Stroman, but he fits the "former top prospect losing a bit of shine" category. Plus he was the#5 pick overall when Shapiro was president in Cleveland so there's that connection. You're right about Loaisga though. He's definitely not the same type of prospect as Glasnow was. Not sure who a good comparable in the Yankees system would be.
  20. glory
    Yeah my first thought was Frazier and Loaisga since health permitted they'd both be in the Majors in 2020, and then add a low minors lotto ticket on top of that. Not a deal I would particularly like, but seems to fit the Archer deal model. Not sure how the Astros would stack up similarly? That's a pretty difficult type of deal to pull off successfully. If the Jays are looking for players who can come in and instantly become impact players, good luck. They'll have to guess right on an undervalued talent or two in that case, like Tampa did.
  21. glory
    Was the Glasnow/Meadows package even viewed favorably at the time? Obviously in hindsight it looks like a heist as Tampa turned them around almost instantly and turned them into much more valuable players than they were showing in Pittsburgh. It will be very hard to duplicate that. Tampa could probably take members of this forum and turn them into 2 WAR players. Their player development is excellent.

    Wall has to be added to the 40 man roster or risk being exposed in the Rule 5. He really should be in AAA right now if they view him as an asset. He has almost 700 PA in AA.
  23. glory
    That home run by d'Arnaud looked like a lazy fly ball off the bat. Live by the Yankee Stadium porch, die by it as well.

    I think the frustrating part is we don't know how much is Buntoyo and how much is Atkins. Giving Vlad every 3 games off has to be a front office call. I find it hard to believe Montoyo would do that on his own. The three days in a row for Giles seems like more of a Montoyo call, probably out of sheer ignorance, but I understand the logic of Atkins having to communicate that Giles has to be unavailable after two straight games. The bunting obsession? Who knows. Honestly I think we missed out on something potentially amazing with Shapiro as president and AA as GM if AA had any interest in staying. If you blend AA's risk taking and "think big" approach with the farm system building under Shatkins, it could have been interesting. I'm afraid Atkins might be in over his head, but he still has this trade deadline to restore some faith.

    Damn I wasn't paying attention to McKinney's AAA numbers since he was sent down, but 14.4 BB%, 14.4 K%, 124 wRC+, .227 ISO. Pretty good. I mean he still probably sucks, but worthy of a promotion over Tellez.
