Thank god. No chance of him coming back and haunting us.
-
Well, crap.
-
If Heyman's reporting on it, he must think he's a lock for the Yankees. But seriously, get it done Theo/Hoyer. No reason to be outbid.
-
They forgot to include Jered Weaver, Kendry Morales and Hank Conger

Trading Soriano
Post Count Padder replied to ctcf's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
If a team feels his leg injury won't be a problem strictly as a DH and we could pick up most of his salary, I'd think someone should be interested. Over the last month, Soriano is batting .290/.355/.680/1.035 for the 10th highest OPS in MLB in that span and also tied for the most HR (11) in that span. -
Any chance we might hear something today? At least in terms of who made offers?
-
B and B are not doing well this year and the Yanks likely won't part with both. They definitely won't part with Mason Williams either. The Sox could offer more. They have a decent Top 10, but I don't know who they'd part with.
-
Dang, he's still got it. That pitch dropped off the table. I'll be rooting for him. Hope he gets the call soon.
-
Rather them than the Yankees. They're stacked with pitching prospects. Arencibia and two of Snydersgaard/McGuire/Nicolino/Hutchinson? Maybe Gose? Why do you want him? Good fielding catcher with a power stroke. Jays have reason to move him with D'Arnaud knocking at the door. Didn't realize he's older than Castillo, though. Obviously he wouldn't be the centerpiece of a deal.

I'm pleased with day one. Like everything I heard about Almora. And I'm happy with the pitchers in the supplemental round. I have faith in the new regime. Also, you can't really judge the draft after the first day, or even when it's over. Give it time, let's see how these kids develop.

Would've preferred giving Bowden a few more innings but oh well. Some other team will give him a chance. Asencio has not much better this season.
-
Yep. Don't really love their system, but it never hurts to get their names into the bidding acution this early. I'm still dreaming of a Turner and Castellanos package from the Tigers Turner had the dead arm issues in the spring and has struggled badly this year. Until further notice, the shine has worn off considerably for me. Also read the Tigers don't plan to trade for another starter. Could be a smoke screen/things can change, but I don't think they'd offer up a huge package for Garza at this point.
-
I don't wanna trade Castro. He'll be a star for years. But if we were offered something like: Trout/Garrett Richards/Kaleb Cowert/etc Bundy/Machado/Matusz Lawrie/D'Arnaud/Drabek or Gose it would be interesting to entertain the offer. But those offers will never happen.

Marlins just placed two outfielders on the DL, one will be out a month or two. Think they'd be interested? -
Around. I don't remember the exact change. And Rich Hill, maybe haha. Don't tempt me.
-
I have a problem. I just enjoy random player tshirts. The latest addition? I found a Matt Murton Cubs shirt online. It's glorious. And only cost like $5.

When did the lightbulb turn on for you?
Post Count Padder replied to davell's topic in General Baseball Talk
When I joined NSBB. Sorta because of video games I cared more about OBP when I was younger and started realizing that was better than batting average, but more advanced stuff didn't come until I read more posts here and read Moneyball. -
Well I'm gonna go cry and drink.
-
Fantastic

https://twitter.com/#!/DKnobler/status/203980810951458816 Quite a fall from grace. Looked like a star a couple years ago. The Jays don't have a good history extending their outfielders (Lind, Rios, Wells)

Watching his speech. Classy guy, thanking Jason Bere like that.

He's comin to Chicago. The White Sox, that is. (per Gammons)
