Webster would be highway robbery. RT @bmix22: @Kevin_Goldstein Cubs should get much more than Allen Webster for Dempster/Russell package.

 

lol okay Kevin

I assume they're not taking Soriano then.

[Ding Dong Johnson]

We're probably getting Hanley too.

shut up ted lilly rules

 

Ted Freaking Lilly! :stickman:

OMG TMFL

How in the hell are Ryan Dempster and Serial Killer Ted best friends? Dempster's gonna end up with his head in a duffel if he brings that Harry Caray [expletive] to LA.

I'm not good w/ the Twit. Who's saying what there?

I like Russell, but he's getting close to arbitration eligible isn't he? His trade value will be at its highest while pitching well at dirt cheap prices.

 

Arb 1 is next year, FA is in 2016. I thought he had one more year before arbitration.

He goes on to say that Webster would be a steal with a package of Dempster/Russell AND someone else.

Because of the Hawaiian, right?

Goldstein is saying that it would be highway robbery to get Webster for Dempster and Russell.

bmix said the Cubs should get more than webster, Goldstein retweeted him and say webster alone would be highway robbery

Yeah right, him and Will Ferrell are gonna be best friends. Slangin chicks all day and all night together.

Someone needs to poke Goldstein with TNSTAAPP

Slangin chicks.

 

Sounds boring.

[Deeg]

If Russell gets us Webster, you throw him in.

 

Yes. I like him, but that's a no-brainer.

[Clem Fandango]

It likely won't happen, but I'm secretly hoping the Dodgers trade Ted Lilly, just because I think it would be funny after all this "He wants to play with Ted Lilly" stuff.

Maybe they're getting high on their own supply.

Again, he's a prospect geek. He clearly and repeatedly shows bias towards prospects (at the expense of actual major leaguers) in virtually every trade evaluation.

Oh I know, but if I'm going to read his thoughts on the matter as I read through the thread, I at least am going to be amused by it.

Doesn't mean he shouldn't get criticized for that.

He's just a contrarian. He was dressing down some fans a few weeks ago for complaining that some prospects were too much in a deal, because prospects are there to be dealt or something.

Dempster Not Yet Officially Traded!

Does that mean he's unofficially traded?

[Sammys Boombox]

I'm surprised we haven't heard even conjecture that the Diamondbacks could be interested in Dempster given his comments yesterday about having a home in Phoenix (in the context of being close to LA) and the DBacks going after a SP.

Yea that title is too dumb to live.
