    2019 Trade Deadline Predictions

    in Pale Hose Talk

    Posted

    With the recent pen troubles of the Dodgers, I think they might swing a trade for both Colome and Bummer, which I would be fine with, hopefully headlined by Dustin May.  

    If Boston wants Abreu, I would trade him for Houck and Mata, then resign him in the off season.

    My goodness: Why in the world would the Cubs want Jay and Osich? Acquiring Jay should be a fireable offense of any contender's GM.

    Why? He's hitting great right now, a career hitter of over .280 and brings playoff experience as a 4th outfielder.  Shocker, wrong again.

    Is Giolito an ace?

    A 4.50 ERA and a 1.33 WHIP against the Royals isn't "good."

    6 innings 1 walk and 5 Ks, 3 ER is still a QS that keeps his team in the game.  Sorry he needs to go 7-8 and give up 1-2 runs every single game.  That's just not going to happen.

    I think Cease has a better chance of being an ace than Gio because he has better raw stuff than Gio.  Cease has an out pitch that he can control in his curveball but he will need to be able to get his fastball and other offerings over the plate as well.  But Gio can be a very good #2.

    Have you seen Gio's change up?

    Based on the fragility of his delivery, I can't say that he's anything more than a #3-4 that can pitch like an ace for stretches. He's probably always going to be inconsistent and maddening to people, because you see the ace in him but he can't keep his shit together long enough to actually pull it off. 

    Let's overreact to two bad starts against the Cubs.

    Great start to the year, struggled lately. Is he an ace? Maybe he's a good #2 or even a #3?

    Aces can struggle too.  6 innings and 3 ER is still good lol.  He's just got touched up by the Cubs really.

    What I would do at this deadline.

    I would like to trade Abreu, but I just don't think they will.  
    I would resign him to 2 years/25 million with an option anyway.

    I would also keep Leury because I think he can be a real good utility player on the next contending team.

    I would not trade McCann.  Seems like he has finally found his game and is in sync with the pitching staff.  Would love to see him work more with Kopech and Cease.

    This is what I would do at the deadline:

    Trade Jay for a low level minor leaguer with some upside.

    Trade Colome and Bummer to the Dodgers for Joc, May, Gray, and Kendall, and Estevez 

     

    The $$$$ will be spent!

    I'd try to sign Puig, Cole and resign McCann and Abreu.  Obviously, the latter being a bit more difficult.  I think Puig can definitely be had as we know the Sox have had interest in him in the past.  

    And then I'd trade from the Farm depth for another pitcher like Caleb Smith, Syndergaard, Stroman, Greinke and move Lopez to the bullpen

    Cole
    Stroman
    Giolito
    Kopech (Rodon as well because they'll limit his innings)
    Cease

    CF Robert
    2B Madrigal
    3B Moncada
    LF Jimenez
    1B Abreu
    C McCann
    RF Puig
    DH Collins/Vaughn
    SS Anderson

    Leury as a bench piece.  That's a playoff team.  Jerry just has to sack up and spend some damn money on pitching.

    Time For Palka To Come Back Up

    Yeah, we don't want to be taking left-handed at bats away from Collins who is a .234 career batter in the minors and is "he's 1 for fucking" 19. 

     

    Really?  Palka serves 0 purpose on this team.  Can't hit, can't field, really can't do much.  

    I'd rather give his at bats to a former first round player that has power, can take a walk, has pedigree and a track record of minor league success, and not judge him in 19 at bats

    Edit: And to think you mention is 234 career minors average.  Dude has a career .378 obp in the minors and an OPS of 812.  Check your facts, bruh

    I think WWE is feeling the heat, from the newfound competition from AEW to the ever sinking ratings -- WWE officially announced Paul Heyman as executive director of RAW and Eric Bischoff as executive director of Smackdown.

    Hard not to be excited about the state of wrestling ... it just feels like another golden era is upon us.

    It's 100% a hail Mary from Vince to get better ratings, but I am all in for this.
