  1. Well, that's your first mistake...
  2. [tweet] [/tweet] [tweet] [/tweet]
  3. LOLmets [tweet] [/tweet]
  4. Meh. He has been a decent reliever for a few years but I doubt he's better than anything on the current roster.
  5. Hopefully, that's not the headliner either. I hope Billy got one of DeLeon, Bellinger, or Verdugo in this....
  6. And there it is:
  7. No way that's all it took. I'd be disappointed if he's the headliner in that deal and we didn't match it.
  8. Considering it was likely this vs sending Edwards down, it's fine for now. Grimm has pitched better of late but I'm not sure he'll even be down that long.

  10. Rich Hill/Josh Reddick maybe, if the rumors are accurate. Rosenthal just tweeted they're gunning for Archer.
  11. Well, then. Lucroy trade off.
  12. Well yeah we gave up a lot but this is also a lot for the Indians to give up. Basically emptied their system between this and the Lucroy trade. And word is the Yankees liked Indians prospects more in a Miller trade. They really wanted Frazier.
  13. He's a guy who always seems to produce but never gets any love in the prospect rankings. I'm sure he'd never be more than a 4th outfielder in the majors but yeah I could see him being a Rule 5 pick from someone.
  14. Some morning updates: Pirates gauging interest in Melancon Yankees gauging interest in McCann Dodgers trying to get Jay Bruce and may trade Puig separately Rich Hill won't make his next start Derek Norris likely to be traded Gonna be a wild couple days til the deadline. It's also still throwing me off that the deadline is now Aug. 1.
  15. I don't think its possible to lose out by not acquiring Cashner. I would agree, especially considering what the Marlins gave up. But a young cost-controlled starter having a solid season? Price tag gonna be huge.
  16. Anyone know why Matusz was scratched from his start tonight in Iowa? Saw a reporter tweet it wasn't injury related and then nothing since.
  17. Apparently the Rangers are deep in talks to get Vince Velazquez from the Phillies. They lost out on Cashner so they're gonna empty the farm now.
  18. Leal is on the DL so I'm not sure he'll get promoted this season even if he comes back reasonably soon. Really don't see Castillo getting promoted except maybe at the end of the season if South Bend needs playoff help. If anyone moves up from Eugene to SB, it'll be Oscar De La Cruz. Ah ok, didn't realize Leal was on the DL. Is it just me or is anyone else surprised Dillon Maples is still in the organization? Is he gonna become anything?
  19. What a package for the Padres. Geez. Cashner, Rea for 2 top prospects, a buy-low starter and an elite reliever who will be back from TJ surgery next season. I'm sure this makes the Phillies happy about a Hellickson trade and really sets the market for starters now.
  20. Lol, it would be a perfect Heyman tweet if he tweets out soon. "Or maybe they didn't got out. Calls or texts may both work." Or for someone to tweet that Jon wasn't receiving texts before Jon tweeted it.
  21. Also, a blast from the past, Brett pointed out today that Jesus Castillo was one of four Eugene All Stars. He has a 10.31 K/9 and 2.43 ERA. Erick Leal is also pitching pretty well in Myrtle Beach. Can't believe we got both for short fast white man Tony Campana. Odds on either getting a promotion soon?
  22. Wow, five pitchers in the top 10. Who would slide in to 10 once Contreras loses rookie status? Tseng has looked pretty good, especially for his age/level.
  23. Yeah, I've spent the better part of the past 2 days rationalizing this move to myself and feel kinda sick that I'm doing that. This guy is scum vs. god I want a WS win. Gonna be even more disheartening if we don't win it and he leaves after the season.
  24. And we're under a week til the deadline.
