I'm reading Norris and Alford (not confirmed)
I'm... okay with this |
Per SI: Norris, Matt Boyd, and Jairo Labourt

Man, Jays and Royals are all in on 2015. Seems crazy for the Jays to do that since they have such a big gap to makeup to win the division. Going all in, just to get to a one-game playoff is risky (see: 2014 A's). If they win that game though (obvs especially if Price starts it), this move is worth alot more.

<font color=goldenrod>lol the umps called a rain delay with 2 outs in the 9th inning. what a joke.</font>
|
Lol Mets
|
<font color=goldenrod>Game resumes, Familia comes back in and blows it again. 3 straight blown saves since the break. 7-1 lead blown. and then they call for another rain delay.
lol @ me for dreaming up playoff possibilities with this team. Nats will probably sweep them this weekend.</font> |
<font color=goldenrod>I hope the crew chief in this game gets a sudden visit from the Angel of Death.</font>

I'd like a dependable lefty out of the pen. Loup and Cecil have been horrible.

What is with this doubling up on closers bullshit.
Dammit the Cubs have fucking Hector Rondon Dammit I almost posted this calling the Cubs the Cums. |
<font color=goldenrod>Carlos Gomez and Mike Fiers to the Astros. No problem with his hip in Houston.</font>
|
<font color=goldenrod>Also the Dodgers immediately designated Michael Morse for assignment. wtf.</font>
|
Hahaha the Dodgers eating his entire year's salary for next season.
Not well versed on the pieces going back to Milwaukee, but Gomez definitely helps the 'Stros. My condolences, Vito. |
I still can't believe in a span of 3 days the Jays got David Price and Troy Tulowitzki. I'm just in shock.
|
:-\ Daniel Nava got designated for assignment by the Red Sox and getting released if he clears waivers.
Even though he's struggled this year, really liked him due to the "feel good" story surrounding his Red Sox career. Team wants as many arms as possible for the main roster because of how horrible the starters have been so he became expendable. |

You think one bullpen guy makes the Cubs that much better? If they got someone in a package thats one thing, but you're going to trade a top 10 prospect for one who might be a rental? The pen hasn't been great, but it was only last year they were the NL version of KC. Grimm, Ramirez, Strop, Rondon is pretty respectable if not sexy. |
<font color=goldenrod>It's been widely speculated that the Mets tried to get the Brewers to throw in cash for a portion of Gomez' 2016 salary. And, when they didn't, the Mets backed away citing concerns over his supposed hip condition. Seems entirely feasible that this has, once again, come down to the fact that the Wilpons are cheap.
I mean, the Astros refused to sign the #1 overall pick in the draft last year because of a concern of his medical history. But hey, Gomez passed their test with flying colors.</font> |

Supposedly Joe Girardi went all Martin Luther King Jr. and has a dream. A dream, that he'll have his own super utility player the likes of Ben Zobrist and BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROCK Holt.
And that player, is one Dustin Ackley. I don't get it. :?: There's always tomorrow. Now that most of the main players are off the board, my request of a solid pitcher seems to be gone. |

Tigers trying to blow a 7 run lead on the Orioles

Apparently the Padres and Cubs are still working on something big. I don't think Starlin Castro will be a Cub tomorrow night.
|
I sure hope he is. As a Padres fan, I want zero to do with him. Can't field, no power, doesn't get on base. No thanks. Especially considering his contract is only going to get more expensive. Think they're better off giving Baez a shot and hopes he hits 250 with a 300 obp to go along with awesome pop.
|
How'd that cubs pen do tonight, RP?
|
You'd be buying low on castro. He's been good in years past, but I'm all for him getting dealt. Always one step forward, one step back with him. Javier baez might be troy Glaus or jose cruz jr
|
Castro is just below league average for his career, and even though he's still young, there's more than enough of a sample size for me to assume he is what he is. I personally feel he's been overrated because he's posted empty 300 batting averages with little pop and a lack of success at avoiding outs. He's never been more than 16% better than league average offensively, per ops+, and that year is sandwiched between two abysmal seasons. I'd be disappointed if he was acquired when Ross is seemingly in high demand.
As for Baez, if he routinely posted Jose Cruz Jr's career slash line he's an all-star at short. |
