Were was the A's Alcantara mentioned yesterday in reports? Cash doesn't really make any sense since the normally cash strapped A's are now on the hook for 5M after taking on Shark and Hammel.
Luis Valbuena /Wesley Wright/ IFA bonus slots Yankees get a cheap upgrade at 3B/2B with team control and a bullpen arm for the stretch run.They have already blown past the spending limits already so bonus slots will lighten the tax load. Might that be enough to snag a guy from the back half of there top ten and 2 low level arms?
The Cubs just saved close to another $5M to add to the money that rolled over from the offseason. Maeda Lester Arrieta Wood Jackson Staily/Beeler/Wada/Hendricks/Rusin
Please trade Barney for a bag of baseballs sooner rather than later so we can play Valbuena at 2nd and let Olt play everyday. Olt is a 25 year old third baseman with plus power who can take a walk and pick it with the glove.
Trade Shark/Hammel/Barney/Schierholtz/Russell/ Deadline haul/ #4 pick in June/ Likely Top 5 pick in 15 system should be set. Sign Max Scherzer Sign Lester/Shields/Masterson
Trade Shark/Hammel any other flip able pieces at the deadline Number 4 pick this june Looking like a top five pick again in 15. Sign two TOR of starters and officially start the dual front strategy.
Seriously? ?? (Don't want this missed at the bottom of the page) Is Neuby the guy who works/worked in TV? Yes seriously. It could be her agency doing due diligence but they have indeed at least inquired about the offer. At the same time if her agency didn't reach out after the offer was made she should be seeking new representation.
Interested to see what Theo and Hoyer are able to get from the next bunch to go. Still plenty of useful pieces for a contender. Gregg Soriano Nate Barney Russell Navarro DeJesus Ransom
Wait, what? Navarro? What exactly does he have to do with this? It was mentioned by one of the local beat reporters that Navarro has been Garza's personal catcher and provides a nice bat off the bench with some pop for a contender.
