December 2, 20169 yr QUOTE (Baron @ Dec 1, 2016 -> 09:04 PM) That's pushing it Yeah those comments ripping him were good. Not top 15 maybe 17 and 21. What's the difference? If it were an exact science, it would be significant.

December 4, 20169 yr QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Dec 4, 2016 -> 12:16 AM) And David Robertson just became a bargain again. For real, I wonder if Hahn is waiting until Jansen, Melancon, and Chapman to sign and the like "Oh, you missed out on those $15M+ relievers? I got one here only making $12.5M. What chu got?"

He is available and may be likeliest Royal to move. https://twitter.com/JeffPassan/status/805820772140847104 If Melancon ends up with Giants as expected and Chapman goes to NYY, that leaves Nats, Marlins, Dodgers, possibly Cubs as interested teams. https://twitter.com/JeffPassan/status/805821060633530370

December 5, 20169 yr QUOTE (ChiSox59 @ Dec 5, 2016 -> 04:27 PM) Kind of a slow first day of the meetings.... Yeah, will never quite be like it was a season or two ago when there were like 25 trades over the course of 4 days.
