  1. I doubt it, as Baseball Prospectus has plenty of traffic regardless. He's just not very good at reporting rumors. How could he report it differently? Responsibly... as in not posting the idiotic musings of a front office type from another organization with no real information.
  2. I won't mind rooting for Wood on the Indians. At least it's an AL team. :( One that routinely plays against the White Sox.
  3. I'd assume there's a fourth year vesting option?
  4. Like I said last night, DeRosa to Philly might mean Jason Donald goes to SD. Which keeps Cedeno for us as Fontenot's platoon partner.

  6. What rollercoaster? We're at the same place we were 3 hours ago when everyone was excited We get a report that says it's very close, then one that says it's not close at all, and it happens over and over and over. There's another one up on MLB Rumors that says it's very close again. Try not taking all of these conflicting reports at face value.
  7. This is a stupid semantic argument. My lolrus post added more to the conversation.
  8. Giles isn't going anywhere. He vetoed a few trades last season, including one to the Cubs, as I recall.
  9. isnt levinson ibanez's agent? can you confirm that they talked more about bradley than ibanez? because ibanez sucks That's not fair... It's not like he's in his late 30s, will cost over 10 mil a year, will forfeit our first round draft pick, sucks horribly in the field, and only has an average bat.
  10. and vitters, derosa, marshall and cedeno is quite a bit to give up for him We could pull a spare prospect from the Phils to help it out a bit. Heitor Correa, maybe?
  11. Josh Vitters, Sean Marshall, J.A. Happ, and Ronny Cedeno seems like a very solid return for Jake Peavy.
  12. Who the hell uses RC/25? RC/27
  13. How do you figure? We've been spending all this time trying to grab spare pitching to add to Marshall, as I understood it.
  14. What do we do when our bullpen comes in? Soriano --> 2B, Cajuns --> SS, Kosuke --> LF Brilliant!
  15. This guy's thoughts deserve discussion or at least validation. Ummm the Phillies said they wouldn't even give up Donald for Delmon Young. He's not goin anywhere. I saw somewhere that Jack Wilson was being considered a big piece in a trade for Delmon Young. Young has about as much value as Rich Hill right now. DeRosa might very well be worth more to the Phillies than Young, especially factoring in his likely Type A status after next season if he qualifies primarily as a 2B.
  16. What do we do when our bullpen comes in?
  17. He was below average at 3B. You know he can't handle short.
  18. This guy's thoughts deserve discussion or at least validation.
  19. Getting DeRosa would make Jason Donald expendable to Philly, and I'd think he'd be heading to SD in place of Ronny Cedeno. Nothing really to back that up, but moving DeRosa just might keep Ronny Cedeno around.
  20. Since when have I claimed not to be on a power trip? Also, now that I've looked through the board, what's up with the receding hairline joke? Are you stalking me or something? That's kinda creepy, dude. My money is on a spreadsheet keeping tabs on everybody.
  21. Posted 4 minutes ago so maybe new. Take it to the Peavy thread.
  22. Ditto + 1 And that's how you do "evil-er" in style.
