With Gregorius needing TJS, wonder if Russell for Gray straight up is worth it?
-
One team that is guaranteed to come open has not been managed much in nearly 4 years. The team is 27-58 since its last trade. Buster Posey, Yuli Gurriel, Jackie Bradley, Corey Dickerson, Addison Russell, Madison Bumgartner, Dallas Keuchel, and Kenta Maeda are some of the players on the Major League roster.

We have a 16-team Keeper League (leaning toward Dynasty) that may need a couple of new owners. 20-man Minor League Roster, so knowledge of Minor Leaguers is important. Keep a set number of points and players (13) each offseason, and year round attention is expected. Anyone interested?

Is this the place to put the Danny Hultzen signing?
-
I don't see how anyone can question resumes and put Wisconsin over any good team. Their resume is absolute horsefeathers.

Cubs trade Eloy, Cease, others for Quintana

Now let's figure out how to get Fulmer from Detroit, and let's make another run at the Championship. -
Looks like I could go: 23: Gonzaga 24: UNC 25: Kansas 26: Arizona If the FInal Four is Kansas/UNC or Kentucky/Arizona/Baylor, I'm screwed because I will have picked them all.
-
Whew. Went with Kentucky in my "survive and advance" bracket. Now on Thursday, I have to choose between: Gonzaga, Xavier, Arizona, Oregon, Michigan, Kansas and Purdue (West Virginia was my Day 1 pick.) Kansas seems like the easy choice here, but then I lose them for the rest of the tourney, and they're playing as well as anyone right now, so I'd really like to hang on to them for at least one more round. I think I'm choosing between Zags, Zona and Michigan. Which of the 3 is most likely to win Thursday, but not likely to make it to the Final Four?

I am in a "survive and advance" Tourney Bracket where you pick one team per day, and you cannot pick that team again. Started with 36 people, down to 15 after today. I went with Baylor on Day 2 so I cannot use them tomorrow. I'm holding off on Duke, North Carolina and Kansas right now. It looks like I'm choosing between Kentucky (vs. Wichita State) and Oregon (vs. Rhode Island.) No clue which way to go here. HELPPPPPPP

Made the deal. Traded a miniscule amount of Salary Cap Points (each team has 1800, and I dealt 65) for Bradley. Was then able to swing Wisler for a 7th round draft pick. 65 points might have gotten me a 10th rounder. So I pick up an extra year of control and add a 7th round pick. Nothing that will make this a contender, but all in all, a solid turn of events. Additionally, I was able to turn Gleyber Torres and a 5th round pick into Nomar Mazara, a 4th round pick, and a 6th round pick, and now have Carlos Gonzalez available to deal. Owning Willy Adames and Lucius Fox made that deal tolerable for me.
-
I have to decide between Archie Bradley and Matt Wisler. Bradley has not been good but I'd get one extra year of control out of him. I don't expect to compete in 2017. What do I do? Keeping Bradley and moving Wisler might earn me a mid-round draft pick, too.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Have you met the New York Mets?
-
Why is anyone panicking over a transaction this FO may or may not make? I think they've shown us that they mostly know what they are doing.
-
Mike Trout will be a Yankee one way or another. Mateo or Torres Frazier Kapriellian Blake Rutherford Ian Clarkin That's not a bad place to start if you're the Yankees.
-
Leadership? McCutchen is one of the best dudes in the league, isn't he? Good dude, yes. Team leader? No.
-
He'd be a fit in Detroit if they move Miguel Cabrera. Or he could fit in Anaheim.
-
I'd love to kick the tires on Ross. Heck, if you felt like you could stash them, I wouldn't mind seeing what Locke and Erik Johnson would sign for.
-
According to Dayn Perry, Rick Hahn has changed his stance and has said that all 29 teams are potential trading partners.
-
I hope he makes Bryant completely unnecessary in the OF in 2017.
-
It could also mean that we intend on going with Javy as primary 2B, Zobrist in RF, Heyward in CF, Schwarbs in LF with Almora and Soler as bench. Yeah, I'm with you. At least I hope this is what happens. But we're so flexible that Maddon will surely find ways to use all these guys semi-regularly.

Rumors and updates from MLB's Winter Meetings: White Sox have told the Cubs that they will not deal with them (Olney) Dodgers, Cardinals, Nationals, Rangers and Astros thought to be in the running for Chris Sale (R.J. Anderson)
-
CBS has a decent article on what the Tigers could do to completely tear down and rebuild. Though there are no matches with the Cubs, they make enough common sense suggestions that would improve the Dodgers (Verlander and Kinsler) and Astros (Cabrera) that it would be frightening to see them go all out in turning over their Major League roster.

Taijuan Walker to Arizona for Segura, others
SRQCub replied to Transmogrified Tiger's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Eh. Obviously going from chase to Seattle isn't going to help but he was pretty much the same hitter on the road last year. True. But I suspect he will go back to not being good, because that's how he has been most of his career. I think this is a little overstated. He's had two good years (his best coming last year in a bad lineup), two bad years, and one mediocre year. Yes, taking him out of Chase will possibly hurt his power, but that spacious park could yield more doubles and triples. If you take his road splits from last year and extrapolate them to 150 games, he'd have 40 doubles, 4 triples, and 16 HR while playing a good defensive SS. If he goes 35/10/15 and continues to OPS .867 from the SS position, I think it's a good return. Hitting in front of Cano, Cruz and Seager probably benefits him more than hitting in front of Chris Owings, Jake Lamb and Goldy. Hitting behind someone other than a pitcher may drive up his RBI totals, as well. As pedestrian as Walker has been, and given his slightly inflated OPS away from Safeco, I can't see a reason to get too worked up over the deal from Seattle's perspective. -
Blue Jays showing interest right now.
