December 13, 20178 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 13, 2017 -> 04:44 PM) Think Adam Eaton package. I think it will be lower. The Marlins are desperate to get rid of salary and teams know that and that's why all of their returns have been underwhelming. Also the Eaton trade is widely considered to be overpay so even if they had the same value it would probably be less.
December 14, 20178 yr QUOTE (KagakuOtoko @ Dec 13, 2017 -> 05:01 PM) Good lord. Seriously? I would think so, because, in my opinion, I think Yelich is the better player than Eaton. Although, the Marlins are desperate and desperation causes short sales.

Two minors leaguers go to cards in deal. I don't know if the Cardinals targeted the A's or if it was just a coincidence, but it's going to be nice for Piscotty to go to Oakland. He is from the Bay Area and earlier this year his mother was diagnosed with ALS.

December 14, 20178 yr 1b and even 1b? Well then. I don't think even I saw that coming, having him play 1b twice in the same game.

December 15, 20178 yr Angels sign Zack Cozart. Should have done that before the Kinsler move and had him play 2B.
December 15, 20178 yr QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Dec 15, 2017 -> 01:48 PM) That deal probably helps Abreu's valuation on the trade market. It also increases the cost of an Abreu extension.
December 15, 20178 yr QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Dec 15, 2017 -> 01:09 PM) It also increases the cost of an Abreu extension. The deal is very similar to the Edwin deal.
December 15, 20178 yr QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Dec 15, 2017 -> 08:09 PM) It also increases the cost of an Abreu extension. Listening to Hahn on the White Sox Talk podcast, it doesn't sound like they are in any rush to extend him
December 15, 20178 yr QUOTE (soxfan2014 @ Dec 15, 2017 -> 02:10 PM) The deal is very similar to the Edwin deal. And Edwin was the far superior player.

Hopefully Hosmer signs with the Padres as rumored. Thinking the same thing with SD and Hosmer. This is a nice little deal for the Phillies. 3 years to a 31 year old with Santana's numbers is very reasonable.

This is a nice little deal for the Phillies. 3 years to a 31 year old with Santana's numbers is very reasonable. This deal really helps the market for other sluggers at the $20 million per valuation. Hosmer now absolutely will be looking for $150+ million.
