Rooting for Putnam.  seems like a good dude, and he was actually quite good for the Sox when healthy.  

He can be really good. The problem is, he has a tough time pitching back to back days. As a reliever, that's a huge problem. Maybe the surgery will correct it, but he also has had shoulder issues.

Interesting.  I haven't bought into the "Indians aren't moving the pitchers now that they cut some payroll" crap.  Their outfield is still pretty horrible, need to figure out how to fix that with no wiggle room.

If the Reds gave up Senzel for Kluber.........that'd be pretty annoying to put it mildly.

Would never move a top 10 prospect for a pitcher older than 30.

Ramirez, Lindor, Senzel from 2B to 3B...damn.

Taylor Trammel has had a lot of helium lately. I can totally imagine a Kluber deal centered on Trammell. Fits Cleveland’s organizational needs super well too.

He can play on Hamilton's shoulders.

LOL.  I can't believe they signed both of them!  Maybe they have a secret memo that future extra innings will be decided by stolen base competitions

 

 

Jeanmar Gomez to the Rangers on a MiLB deal.

I'd still prefer to take the risk with Harvey

I'm really curious about where Fiers ends up and what he gets.

 

Pretty good for a guy who looked cooked a couple years ago.

 

2-24 for Murphy seems an overpay, but there goes one of the few spots for Abreu.

Abreu is a 2b or Murphy is a 1b?

Don't be stupid, Reds.

Murphy is a great fit for the Rockies,you can put some money down on him winning the batting crown if he stays healthy.

He's going to see a lot of lefties in the NL West, so I wonder if they strictly platoon him.  If he gets to face mostly righties, he's going to be a beast there.
