  1. Here's to us kicking in somehing extra and getting Rubby back.
  2. Lol, Heyman now says the Marlins are begging teams to take Carlos Lee off their hands. When did they get him, like 2 or 3 weeks ago?
  3. Honestly, @thekapman has probably been on the spot more with regards to rumors and signings than anyone.
  4. 50-50, Jon? Get the [expletive] outta town. The trade could happen, unless it doesn't It's OK, another secret source clears things up in his article. http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/blog/jon-heyman/19641651/dempster-braves-trade-said-to-be-50-50 Heh, can't make this stuff up.
  5. This was from Soler's first game, via Law (apologies if it was posted earlier): http://insider.espn.go.com/mlb/blog/_/name/law_keith/id/8185225/scouting-jorge-soler-chicago-cubs-tyler-skaggs-arizona-diamondbacks-mlb
  6. Honestly, it's kind of true. The main thing that was exciting about him for me was the velocity (heard touching 98 and stuff) so I assumed the fastball was sitting 93-94. But I read the other day he's been sitting 88-92. The numbers are obviously terrible. About the only good thing I can say is he's supposedly spinning a good breaking ball right now. Not that I wouldn't take him 1 for 1 for Demp in a heartbeat, but i've got concerns.
  7. It would be fun to hear Schwarzenegger excitedly pronounce Bijan Rademacher. I feel like that's the perfect group of syllables for his voice.
  8. Well, tomorrows the day for Paniagua. I'd imagine we hear something on him relatively soon.
  9. Rademacher DH'ing for Peoria.
  10. Check out the Candyman celebrate: http://www.milb.com/multimedia/vpp.jsp?content_id=23098739
  11. Walk-off homers tend to help break slumps...
  12. He also said that Hickman would sign shortly after Almora. And that we won the bidding for Darvish.
  13. Baez doubles, but is somehow out at second. Oh well, OPS at .987.
  14. If gameday was right, Baez was a few feet short of a walk off in his last at bat. Game's still in action, slight chance he gets another AB.
  15. Honestly, posts like those piss me off. If you're going to give us obvious "clues" that make it pretty easy to know who you're talking about, then just tell us the actual names in the first place. That might be all he was told, or all he feels comfortable without burning his source of information. I wonder if they think they can fix Oliver's control problems. Oliver, Crosby, and Smyly would be who he's referring to i'm assuming. Who knows which, though I doubt they'd want to move Smyly. I forgot about Oliver actually, but i'm not all that interested.
  16. From Offman: Honestly, posts like those piss me off. If you're going to give us obvious "clues" that make it pretty easy to know who you're talking about, then just tell us the actual names in the first place.
  17. I don't think the package for a starter with a 4.37 FIP begins and ends with the top-hitting prospect in baseball. The chance to deal for Wil Myers was this past offseason. They can't move him now, people went ape [expletive] for him all weekend here. My mock offseason of Garza for Wil Myers (while value was low...though not sure KC would have been interested in offseason), trading for Quentin, trading for Rizzo, and signing Cespedes would have been pretty dirty with the results each have shown. I neglected pitching for the most part, but i'd take a season of crappy pitching for that young core. Though it looked even better when BJax was looking like a stud.
  18. I imagine Dave Kaplan finds it tragic that Giancarlo Stanton will never fulfill the tremendous potential that Mike Stanton once possessed. Don't know if that was the first time that joke was used, but that was good.
