I'm surprised Detroit messed with Boston and didn't just trade us Garcia for Alexei.
Iglesias is much cheaper, controlled for six years, and possibly better than Alexei at defense
QUOTE (Eminor3rd @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:31 PM)
Also keep in mind that Detroit has the best hitting lineup in the AL and the worst infield defense in recent history. Iglesias is an EXCELLENT fit for that team with Fielder/Cabrera around for the long haul.
That could help Porcello a bunch

They must know for a fact that Peralta is done soon.
Yeah, Passan has basically confirmed it too, happening this week.
QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jul 30, 2013 -> 10:16 PM)
I'm more worried about what our system would do to Garcia than Garcia himself.
That's why you trade Rios now and Garcia doesn't see the minors.

Why are the Brewers in their lost season starting Lucroy at catcher in both games of a DH?
I don't know but even with him that is a Marlins esque lineup. I have never heard of half those guys.

Rios is such a Fing Biotch. He is so soft and is a great actor so he doesn't get traded. WTF I hate this guy
Pretty gutsy on his part to wait until the 8th inning of the last game before the trade deadline to fake an injury to avoid a trade.
Most players involved in Biogenesis scandal are expected to be suspended 50 games in the next 72 hours. Except for A-Rod who continues to fight.

That's what surprises me. How he can go from somebody pushing a .400 before ASG last year to now...don't get it unless it's some sort of injury.
Drug testing did just become way more strict.

It's going back a ways but it'd be like the White Sox getting Ted Kluzewski in 1959. He was an old vet and that worked out well for the Sox.
Or like the White Sox getting Manny Ramirez a few years ago.

My kid's kindergarten orientation is from 6:30-8:00 ET, so you can bet that's when a Peavy trade will go down.
Just drop him off and head back home. You don't need to be there, he's a big kid now!

I didn't even know he was still up with the team. Guess I'm not watching enough!
I think it means you are watching the right amount.
