Dodgers confident they will get Turner according to Olney.

This thread turned into a joke. Both of you need to grow up.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Dec 12, 2016 -> 03:09 AM) I don't know man, it's not like we are far and away one of the worst teams. I think top 10 draft pick is a safe bet, and top 5 is a good chance. But we would have to move Q, Frazier, Robertson, Jones, Abreu for me to think we have a chance at #1. I guess you are right but i would say if we trade quintana it would be pretty close.

You would have to think we will be in the top 2 for the 2018 draft. What a time to be alive. Gray looks amazing but Beer looks unworldly.

QUOTE (beautox @ Dec 9, 2016 -> 12:18 AM) I really like Jake Burger, JJ Schwarz and Brendan McKay. I think it would be awesome to draft Jake Burger in '17 and Seth Beer in '18 the promos write themselves. I've read a lazy comp of burger to Bryant so we'll see. Anyone got a hot take on Beer? Trade for Pint and you would have the easiest and most fun marketing job the baseball world has ever seen. Beer Pint Burger We would be the most liked team in the league.

I would be fine with Frazier and Robertson staying until the deadline to have them rebuild their stock. If Frazier can get back to his career norms you could get a decent haul.

QUOTE (ChiliIrishHammock24 @ Dec 12, 2016 -> 01:03 AM) Sold They were absolutely unbeatable for years. Not only did they have Tapia, Moran, and Reed hitting 50 home runs a year but they also signed Harper who was putting up MVP numbers and Altuve nearly breaking hit records. Anyways back on topic.

Colin Moran and AJ Reed were hall of famers in my OOTP save. Tapia was close to HOF worthy.

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
