    Doubtful. 5 WAR is 5 WAR if it's done in 50 games or 150 games, combine that with the Rockies' love for him and I think you're looking at package more like Russell/Bryant+Baez+Almora? I wouldn't do it just because I feel the injury bug will only bite Tulo harder as he ages and that package would be a massive overpay, especially when you see what established star big leaguers are bringing back in trade. It's probably not worth it to move Castro off SS and lose that many prospects to get an oft injured superstar.

    Way to bring a room down. We needed that. Then I won't even mention what he did in his second AB... lol...all you can do is laugh and hope it gets better I honestly think continued issues could be a positive. If he just came out raking then he wouldn't learn anything. I dunno I might be grasping at straws here.

    They said he wouldn't, iirc, but you never know whether to believe them until it's too late for them to post him. What the [expletive] do you mean "them"? NPB owners Sorry weak attempt at a joke along the lines of "you people"

    The Padres make no sense to me.

    I hope its us but I feel like its SF I think I'd rather have Anderson for that tier of starter, but I'm not really sure. I think I would agree, but it's 2:30a and I forgot he was a thing. Anderson's issues have been more injury related than anything. To me, Masterson is probably more mechanical and will probably cost a bit more than Anderson or he just actually sucks. They're both a lottery ticket though so I think I would trust the decision of the FO and who they think Bosio would be most likely to fix.

    http://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2014/11/scherzer-lester-shields-and-career-pitch-counts.html This addresses the fallacy that is innings pitched correlating to injury.
  11. Agony and Ivy
    I don't buy the hypothetical mileage thing as much as many when discussing player. 30 years old is 30 years old and not pitching innings doesn't slow down the aging process.

    or as someone else put it.... Yeah I don't know how Oakland selecting a player from us is going to resolve the PTBNL that they owe us. And I agree with Chris Green. I met her while covering the AFL and I have no idea how she has that job. I literally don't think she watched a single pitch just sat there with her reading glasses staring at her computer.
  14. Agony and Ivy
    So evidently the Cubs moved Doubront to Oakland? Or will tomorrow somehow resolving the PTBNL from the Shark deal? Muskat is just the worst on Twitter.

    Didn't Richards blow out his elbow? It was his knee, iirc. Correct. Patellar tendon. Scioscia said he would be back in mid-May.
  16. Agony and Ivy
    I like that deal for LAA but Heaney was expendable after signing McCarthy

  18. Agony and Ivy
    Meh I'm not sure about that but either way this seems like a marginal upgrade.
  19. Agony and Ivy
    That contract is one of the issues at play. Harper is going to file a grievance against the Nats because they don't want to let him go t arbitration
  20. Agony and Ivy
    Now I want to sign Shields just to [expletive] these teams again.
  21. Agony and Ivy
    I swear to god and I completely mean it that I will never, ever say one bad thing about the front office on any Cubs-related web site ever again if we acquire Bryce Harper this offseason. I'm not saying... but I'm just saying.... Bryce Harpers last tweet was... "The Cubbies coming in hot!!!" # MLB I am about to tweet that my sources confirm Harper is headed to the Cubs.
  22. Agony and Ivy
    MLB Network is floating the idea that Harper is being traded. Absolutely nothing concrete just thought it was interesting.

  24. Agony and Ivy
    The Marlins with a super Marlins move sending Heaney to the Dodgers for Dee Gordon...
  25. Agony and Ivy

I don't know what station he's with now. and @injuryexpert is will carroll who i am not sure but i think we hated 10 years ago yeah because that idiot tried to tell us that mark prior was permanently broken Ya [expletive] that guy and his anti-Prior sentiment
