    How so you know if they tried to trade deunsing. They were trying to upgrade the pen last year. No one was graduatin to the majors and Fien is better.
  2. Brandon
    Keep in mind this is a 1 year contract if the young guys bump him from the pen. Easy to move in a trade.
  3. Brandon
    If he is the 2nd reliever that is not on Fien. That would be on TR for not upgrading the pen. His value is a middle reliever who is ultimately worth 3 to 4 million on the open market IMO. Fiend production is solid so he is easily worth th investment.
  4. Brandon
    I think Sano in the OF is until we can move Mauer to the bench the last year or two of his contract if he doesn't produce closer to .300/.380/.400.
  5. Brandon
    Fien has value and we can trade him when the better arms are ready and warrant a trade. We're not there yet.
  6. Brandon
    Park should have tried to negotiate incentives into that deal. I would be fine with 2 or 3 million in incentives per season.
  7. Brandon
    2 million is not too much for fien. 3.5 to 4 million is where I cut the cord with him.
  8. Brandon
    If healthy would AJ Griffin who was just released by the A's make a good lefty reliever. ..
  9. Brandon
    I was thinking of waiting a year to let Mauer go to the bench as opposed to loosing Plouffe.
  10. Brandon
    The formula you say the Royals have for winning is the same one Terry Ryan deployed in the early 2000s. Bullpen, defense, contact hitting.
  11. Brandon
    Guys I'm pretty sure you can trade a rule 5 pick after the rule 5 draft....isn't that how we got Johan Santana and 50,000 for Camp....
  12. Brandon
    As far as Sano in the OF. He can handle a season or 2 to see if Mauer can regain his stroke then move to 1B full-time and sign Plouffe to an extention.

    Mike, what Boston paid was crazy. Also there is a difference in what can be accepted for trade but what I meant was a starting pitcher prospect and a strong relief pitcher prospect. and a third if it helps you balance the trade. Change the names around a bit. But there are other relievers to consider.
  15. Brandon
    I think the starting pitching is fine. I would like to get a dominant reliever however. I like the idea of trading a few prospects for Chapman ....Rogers and Zach Jones or something along those lines. We get a dominant reliever. And a draft pick when he leaves to replace the prospects traded but don't have to be on roster for several years.
  16. Brandon
    Santana at SS and Vargas implosion were also on the list right....
  17. Brandon
    If we could package him with say Nolasco and another prospect maybe Zack Jones to SD for Norris and Benoit. ..I think the hardest part of this trade is the last year on Nolasco contract otherwise it could work.
  18. Brandon
    So where does Eades fit as a prospect
  19. Brandon
    I'm a little bummed. I think Torii had a legitimate hall of fame shot with 1500 RBI. He's 110 or so away. And yes that's along way off but I think he had a chance with 2 more seasons with 800 or so at bats.
  20. Brandon
    I don't look at the pay as much as the results. If he can hit .290 with .350 obp then he should hit 2nd am he can be maximized. There will be better players but we can live with that especially since we have a shortage of on base guys. Problem is he didn't hit with bases empty...will that normalize going forward....I don't expect Mauer to be a superstar. But we need better than .260 with 10 hr moving forward.
  21. Brandon
    I agree we should have signed him. I disagree with playing him over better players. Our window of contention is now open. ..we need to take advantage of all opportunities to put the best player on the field. Although he was on of a few with a decent obp. I am willing to go 1 more season to see if he can approach. 300 again.

    My concern is their going to trade Plouffe When they could put Sano at 1B and have Mauer backup 1B and DH. But if Mauer can hit .300 fine. Trading Plouffe won't sting as much but I doubt it at this point.
  25. Brandon
    I don't like the idea of trading Plouffe at this point but the Angels could use a 3B. If they can put together a good enough package to aquire him.
