I think bres-slow needs to swing for the fences this offseason in his pursuit of skenes!! We have more than enough assets to give Pittsburgh some offense as well as future pitching
I think the deepest hole on our team is the number two spot in the rotation.
I realize most people on this site over value prospects, but we have to give to get!!!
I agree, it will take a lot to get and that is why we need to aim for the absolute best arm we can because we have a ton of mlb players and prospects to give.
I do not know what teams want for starters, but I have no problem over paying to get a number 2 starter.
So how many prospects are we willing to part with for a number 2 in the rotation?? I have Mayer and Anthony (and narveaz) as untouchable!!
does Pittsburgh agree to Duran, Campbell, arias, tolle, early and Clarke for skenes???
Tolle has also been pretty good!
uberstine is still shaking off the rust, but his stuff is looking sharper!!
another guy that is starting to figure it out is erhlicher! He may never be an ace, but he could develop into a contributor or trade piece!!
Then there is a true wild card in futrell!!! He has decent stuff and can look good or terrible all in the same outing!!!!
we have much better pitching prospects than we have had in a long time!!!
Romero has been hitting well since he came off the DL.
tibbs is really hard to watch play!!!!he always seems clueless yet someone does not get killed in the field, and occasionally lucks into a hit in the batters box!!
ehrhard can look like Mike trout one day and Connor Wong the next day!!!! I hope he figures it out soon
I have no problem moving on from bleis and/or cespedes in a trade!!
To move arias, tolle and/or Clark, it would have to be for a young established excellent arm!!!
Valera is on my untouchable list. His stuff is dazzling when he is healthy
Early working on a no hitter. Left the game after 6 innings. Final line. 6 innings, zero hits, 3 walks and 7 strikeouts!!! He needs to be in Worcester!!! Great game
houck lit up like a pinball machine,
Salem offense with no hits thus far.
The team we need to be calling is Philly!! Desperate Dave needs a lefty reliever and an outfielder and a third basemen!!!!
Chapman, Bergman and Duran for painter!!!
I agree with this 100 percent!
but this year is unique in that we have quality major league talent with years of control that should allow us to get a contending team’s best pitching prospect!!
