To the drinking fountain? -
Hell, why not sign Soto & Bregman and then trade Casas, Rafaela, Grissom & Abreu for pitching. 1. L Duran CF 2. L Devers 1B 3. L Soto LF 4. R Bregman 3B 5. L Anthony RF 6. R Campbell 2B (L DHam) 7. L Yoshida DH (R Refsnyder) 8. R Story SS (L- Mayer) 9. R Wong C (L Teel) LMAO!

Rafaela is one of your keepers?
-
Imagine if the actually tried being honest or at least not dishonest or deceptive. I'm not sure any GM is totally honest and forthcoming, but these guys take the cake.

I get that, and I agree SEA would not give both for Anthony. Can you name a trade for Anthony, in which bot GM might agree, and you think is worth the risk?

Red Sox hitting approach - what is going on?
moonslav59 replied to Bellhorn04's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
At the start of the season, I listed something like 30 reasonable things that "could go right" and posited that maybe we needed 20-25 to happen to end up with a good season. I'm going to go back and try to fine that post. My guess is we probably fell about 3-5 short of my best case hope. You were not wrong. -
79-71 Woo AAA 78-60 POR AA (Won division but missed playoffs) 63-60 GRE A+ 70-62 SAL A- 35-24 FCL 27-26 DSL Blue 42-14 DSL Red (WON Championship)
-
So, basically you'd only agree to an absurdly lop-sided trade that the other team would never agree to. I'll as, because why? You value Anthony way more than any GM does? (I'm not trying to bust your B's- just wondering.)
-
Extending Houck would be great. I'd be fine with a Crawford one, too. Maybe Slaten is worth a gamble, at such an inexperienced point in his career.
-
Well, apparently JH swore no pitchers over 30 to long term contracts then signed Price to a mega deal. I'm not sure he ever said these words. JH also okay'd the extension to Nate for ages 29, 30, 31 and 32 and Sale to ages 31, 32, 33, 34 and 35. Now, since then, there has been nothing close to a long term deal for any FA pitcher that was even rumored to be offered. Bello's 6 year deal is it ($55M.)
-
Agreed. Some trades are pending a grade: Dugo for Fitts, Weissert & Judice (The Dugo part is about done and was not good for NYY) Urias for I Campbell (Urias has not done well.) Schreiber for Sandlin (Schreiber did okay and has another year of control) Robertson & Santos for O'Neill seems to have worked for us, but the trade is over on our end in a week- not theirs. The deadline deals sucked. The Sale deal sucked, despite Grissom still have 4 years to go.
-
Many wanted us to do more or better at the deadline, but I don't recall a single poster saying the Zef trade was bad, until after LG imploded.
-
I'd be interested in Abel or Painter for Abreu, DHam and Wikelman.

Add 4 what ifs to other teams, too, and maybe not. -

I don't think so. If he's healthy for ST'ing, he'll be in the mix. It will be interesting to see how they construct their 40 man roster and how many of the 5 top prospects- all non Rule 5 players will be on it. IMO, only those on the opening day 26 will be on the 40. Anthony, Campbell, Mayer, Meidroth & Teel. The team control years may be a big part of the equation for some or all. I think Teel will not start on the 26 or 40. Only an injury or trade of a corner IF'er would give Meidroth a shot for opening day. The other 3 are in the serious opening day roster mix, IMO.

The key is knowing a lie when you hear it. I'd say the vast majority of Sox fans know they are lying and think 3 years in a row hovering around or just below .500 is proof of the lies or "sham."
-
It looks that way. 8 teams are on pace for 90 wins: 6 are NL teams (maybe BAL joins the club of 9.) 3 Teams are around a .550 winning %. (BAL, ATL, HOU) One could say 11 good teams. 13 teams are between about .470 and .530 (Call these the mediocre ones.) 5 teams are bad (.365 to .445) 3 in NL 1 team is historically horrific (CWS at .231.) Call it 6 bad teams. (3 AL-3NL) One could include PIT & TOR at .468 and TEX at .474 to say there are 9 bad teams, 10 mediocre teams and 11 good teams.
-
They "developed" him in 6 weeks and 14 IP?
-
It took me a while to realize this. I've always wanted him and Whitlock in the pen. Now, it's just Whit.
-
Nobody thinks .500 is acceptable. We are all pissed, but we don't have to build strawmen to make a point.

Man, I sure wish we still had the ZEF-A-Beast!
