QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Dec 12, 2016 -> 12:19 AM) Astros looking at Duffy per mlbtraderumors. Its like they dont want to advance to the ALCS. This is probably them posturing and its pretty comical.

I might be completely wrong but isn't it a bit premature to analyze (or in fangraphs case, anal-ize) a rookie who is making adjustments and learning? How would fangraphs approach Beckham's rookie season? We are all aware about how his career ended up.

Am I the only one who is obsessed right now? I keep refreshing mlbtr and this thread. I need this resolved soon so I can get back to my normal life. I can't imagine how Hahn feels.

It has to be Houston. What other options do they have? I can see the Yankees taking a pass for now since their window will be in 2 years. Houston has to make a move now since their pitching is mediocre.

Houston saying that Tucker is nearly untouchable.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Dec 8, 2016 -> 07:36 PM) that's why they get paid the big bucks lol. But like you and blacksox said...have an infield of Moncada/Anderson/Bregman AND Abreu...good lord...that is SICK! That's why I'd do the Q for Bregman straight up...I just think he's gonna be a really good one. But what do I know... Would look even better with Harper in the OF come 2018. It wont happen but a man can dream..

QUOTE (Real @ Dec 6, 2016 -> 06:59 PM) Most Red Sox fans calling into this weei radio show saying they can't believe this is all they had to give up I'm just confused at how the deal was made so quickly considering the return. I wonder what Hahn was demanding prior to the agreement. I really hope he puahed hard for Devers..

I really hope Eaton doesn't get traded. He is the type of player you want in a rebuild.

Not enough

I am prepared to be be completely underwhelmed

Hes right

QUOTE (hi8is @ Nov 16, 2016 -> 08:35 PM) Behahahahahahhaha - dude hit like 295 with an obp of 350 or something with around 20DRS and what 20 sb at a premium CF position. Yea... f*** that throw in. ???? Him and Eaton together in that outfield and at the top of the lineup.. Make it happen Hahn!

Ahh another two months of me furiously updating this site, mlb trade rumors, and twitter. The joy

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Nov 9, 2016 -> 11:11 PM) I wouldn't call it "much" cheaper. Miggy isn't going to command a ton heading into a decline and still being owed 200 mil True, I didn't realize he was there until 2023.

QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Nov 9, 2016 -> 10:39 PM) Astros are in the market for a 1b/dh type. I'd offer them Abreu for some of their prospects. They have 4 or 5 of the top 100. Was thinking this too. Abreu would be a a much cheaper option compared to Cabrera

I was in my first year of college in Montreal Canada. My dorm had some common rooms but most of them were taken by the girls and i had to settle for a dungeon type tv room in the basement. I was watching it alone for the most part but in the 8th inning when Dye hit that single a lot of Jays fans came down to watch it with me. I was so shocked and ended up crying a bit once we won it. The jays fans congratulated me and were very happy for me. They are the reason why Toronto is my second favorite team.

Can you rename this thread "depression by the numbers" please??

The Dee Gordon home run might have been the most beautiful thing I have ever seen in the game of baseball (minus the white sox winning in 05). Only two times I cried watching this game.

I have a hard time feeling sorry for athletes who are making millions of dollars while I slave at work, but if I was in Sale's shoes I know this franchise's futility would be eating me alive. I really hope he will be able to put some championship rings on his fingers whether if it is with the Sox or not.

porcello will win because he plays for Boston

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Sep 5, 2016 -> 01:12 AM) this will sound bad but if abreu was playing poorly because he wasn't able to see his son, does that make him a mental midget? I don't have a kid but I can imagine that would be very demoralizing. Maybe Abreu sees his son as something more important than playing a game. Hell I haven't seen my dog in a year and whenever I think about him I get pretty down. I can't imagine what not seeing a son for 3 (?) years would be like. Mental midget? not really. Human? yes.

We are stuck with Shields, nobody is going to want to deal for him this offseason. 2017 rotation: Sale Quintana Shields Rodon Fulmer We better hope Shields and Rodon are good next year

QUOTE (harkness @ Jul 16, 2016 -> 12:03 AM) 3-9 is well below .500... Though I'm not even sure what you meant by that. I meant that's a small sample size for a 500 team and doesn't mean anything. Even if this team was 50 and 25 that still wouldn't mean much

That doesn't mean anything considering this is just a 500 team

Just another tip of your cap to a phenomenal pitcher in Santiago. Second time he displays his pitching dominance against the Sox. Oh wait he has a 5.5 ERA against every other team? Hmm.
