I'll probably buy the pick 7. What seats do you guys normally get for those?

I'll probably go see them play the Astros or the Rangers. Either way it's a pretty decent drive.

Oh thank you Rick!

Man the Mariners have had them on their list for atleast 2 years.

The Marlins havent been doing so well in trades so far

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 10, 2014 -> 07:39 AM) fathom has all of their all star plaques shined up and ready to go. He just refurbed the ones he had made for the previous generation of cant miss cubs My favorite part is he didnt mention Baez.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 10, 2014 -> 12:51 AM) No reason they won't be a top 5 team in baseball from 2016-2020. I'm more nervous about them getting a big time bat to go along with Rizzo/Castro/Bryant/Soler/Russell Well yeah there's one pretty big reason. Those players not being able to transition.

You didnt think they were going to trot Viciedo out there again when talking about the importance of defense right?

QUOTE (Lemon_44 @ Dec 9, 2014 -> 06:00 PM) How about Viciedo and Danks for Kemp. The money kind of matches up but not sure why the Dodgers would do that unless they are hellbent on trading Kemp. However, I may be about the only one who is okay with giving Dayan one more shot at putting it all together offensively. Yes you are and why on Earth would the Dodgers do that?

Meija was a good get by the Diamondbacks

It will be fun to watch Baez swing and miss at Shark's breaking ball. The reaction will be great.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Dec 9, 2014 -> 11:42 AM) He's got jokes since the Robertson thing isn't official yet. Yeah he just told me...did a complete fly by

Apparently we may have signed another reliever too

Well alright then

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Dec 9, 2014 -> 10:54 AM) So if you trade Danks, leaving Sale-Shark-Q at the front of the rotation, you now have to fill two slots with some combo of Noesi, Beck, and/or someone you acquire in the meantime. That is a steep drop-off. Rodon can be a 4th, but they are making it sound like he's in the pen to start (or AAA). The other considerable pitching prospects (Montas, Danish, Adams, etc.) are not ready, and the guys between like Recchia are not likely to be much more than #5 guys. You have no room for error. You'd need to find another starter, maybe a McCarthy or someone like that. I don't think you want to go into 2014 Opening Day with Beck, Recchia or anyone else at that level in the rotation if it can be avoided. Both may be more ready later, but neither are now IMO. I think they are still going to meet with Masterson

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Dec 9, 2014 -> 10:53 AM) Don't remember...but I think a few posters were talking about it in one of the other main threads so I created this as I thought it was at least deserving of its own thread (vs. being burried within the massive Robertson / Shark threads. Alright I was just wondering. Definitely an interesting development

Who on the score was reporting this?

Alright i'm finally awake...was a struggle to sleep last night. Listening to 87.7...Kaplan seems pretty pissed

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Dec 9, 2014 -> 01:23 AM) You can't spend $8-10 million on Masterson and also address LF via FA...unless you make a trade involving Ramirez (not going to happen now) or Anderson/Montas/Danish/Hawkins. Maybe, just maybe, they trade Danks for Ethier and then replace Danks with Masterson/B.Anderson in the rotation. I think bucket said it a few pages ago but it doesnt sound like they'll go the FA route with LF so your scenario would make sense.

Let's not forget they'll probably try and sign Masterson too

QUOTE (ptatc @ Dec 9, 2014 -> 01:14 AM) Good late night burgers. Get me some double cheeseburgers. I'm definitely getting a bacon cheeseburger from Wendys tomorrow

QUOTE (ptatc @ Dec 9, 2014 -> 01:12 AM) Good. We can still go get the burgers while taking semien to the airport. Sounds good. White Castle sounds good right now.

I asked Scott Merkin if Danish was the 3rd player to be named. He said nope.
