Samardzija trade rumors

[davell]

I think it's entirely plausible to think a contender would take the "known entity" over a top prospect. Because, they are "prospects" after all. Maybe even being a mid market team helps this cause, as a Colorado isn't a perennial contender? Maybe that's a reach. But I'd expect an excellent return or else there's no reason at all to deal him.

 

With the way he's pitching, his relative bargain salary, and the extra year of control-the return had better dwarf the Garza return.

 

Wouldn't a big market team be more willing to trade the 6 years of control for the known entity who costs money?

 

I'm thinking that since they're there all the time, the other teams may be likelier to overbid. Basing this on not thinking the Yankees or Dodgers(now) giving up much in trades recently.

Parks said yesterday in his chat that he'd expect the Cubs to turn down Betts and Owens, yet today he said he doesn't think the Rockies would deal Gray OR Butler. Much less Butler and Dahl.

 

I'm one of the Parks fans here and that makes no sense at all to me.

 

Parks on matters at all relating to MLB rosters is...not good.

Parks was cool when he was unknown and just the other guy on KG's podcast who made KG seem like less of a dick. Now he just sucks.

Rox really are dream trading partner, tons of guys i'd love (to varying degrees):

 

Gray ( ), Butler, Matzek, Winkler, Parker, Dickerson, Murphy, Dahl, Herrera

 

 

They also have the first trade able pick in the draft (#35 I think), in a draft full of pitchers.

If you google image search professor parks, the second pic is of Baez.

 

I had to see a pic because the one Tangled posted is just too perfect to be true.

Martin Perez needs TJS and Matt Harrison needs spinal surgery, so bump the Rangers up a couple notches on the interested trading partners list.

that [expletive] was calling Butler a reliever like 8 months ago

[Gilby]

[expletive] it, if we have to trade Samardzija, I don't even want a young pitcher. Get Betts as the centerpiece, sign Despaigne, try our luck with FA pitchers and out-score people. Edited May 14, 2014 by Gilby

Shut up yes it is

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

the picture was to imply it was obviously a hipster statement. it wasn't until after I posted it that I realized he kind of looked like parks, lol

Might even want to try dangling Hammel, Villanueva, or even Jackson in front of them right about now.

The term Hipster gets thrown around too much -- that picture is an insult to hipsters. That's a straight douche.

My semi-realistic "dream" is that the Dodgers decide they want to be the Dodgers, and we could get Pederson. Love him.

A scarf is a scarf is a scarf. Wearing one unnecessarily is a signature hipster douchebag move.

I'll bet anything this guy's name is Linus or something equally douchey. People like this have "discovered" my neighborhood bar and they must be stopped.

"Do you guys carry Idaho Organic Huckleberry IPA?"

"The bar hasn't been painted in 40 years. STFU!"
