TheBlackSox8 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 1 minute ago, Harry Chappas said: I think trout leaves because the Angels are stuck in neutral and he should be the MLB poster boy and NY or Philly may give him that. Angels could maximize their return if they know he wants to leave, and they would/should have their pick of anyone's farm system in trading him.

Jeez, can you imagine that? On Machado: Mildly surprised that he didn't sign anywhere in the first week of January, but I expect him to sign this upcoming week. That, to me, was always the prime point. I figured he'd sign in the second week or possibly first. Manny not signing till Feb he's not even close to signing.

Would have no problem trading him if he was 0.5 seasons away from free agency and I could get a huge haul. Of course, permitting that I'd be out of the playoff shot at that time. I'd get a haul. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want to be the GM who wasted one of the best player's career? If I cant get the job with him, I sure as hell would rather re-tool the entire franchise by trading him.

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 If we all just stop engaging Peavy44 and replying to his nonsense, we can probably reduce the length of these threads by like 30% or so. 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have wasted it, you look embarrassing. Clearly it doesn't phase him too much. I'd rather do what is best for the franchise moving forward.

YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 If all the Machado threads from the past month were combined into one, it would be 7,000+ posts long. Not kidding either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
