  1. Yup, and having two less guys in the pipeline means there are less darts thrown at the board, meanie your odds are lower. I don't get how anyone can feel like not having two of your top three picks is irrelevant. ....but we have killed this topic, so I am pretty much out now.
  2. Hard to say so far for sure, but if you look at all of MLB, it just doesn't happen all that often. You can make it work once or twice, maybe, but are those the odds to play?
  3. then why do they care if they keep him, if he's not good?
  4. the hitters that replaced him produced almost the same exact offense (somehow)......it was other issues that sunk that (iirc). Which might be what you are saying.
  5. Really? I think if they just used Graham it would be fine, but they refuse to use him for some reason. Then next year, they'll put him on an innings' limit, since he didn't pitch much this year. Then, in 2 years, they'll be turning him into a RP, since the SP will be full.......that's my prediction anyway.
  6. Not having a 2nd round pick, or the number 74 pick does nothing to the pipeline at all? Why bother even picking guys then?
  7. Gordon has very little chance of being a star? That's not what I've read, but we are off the Jay topic now....
  8. Fair, but I don't believe in Santana or Polanco at SS.....and Gordon is 2-3 years away, so I'd consider it for the correct SS (no idea who that would be). but, if you could get a legit catcher, I'd prefer that, agreed.
  9. My bad, those RP trades are on other threads.....
  10. I get what Sano could be....but he could also be your RF or 1B or DH, so, that's why I said you'd have to get a C or SS.....
  11. Every game they go with a 5 man BP (since they won't use two of them), with 3-4 of them being pretty bad......is a game that makes it unnecessary to make the trade later.....
  12. I did say it would have to be a good, young, catcher or SS.....but some of the trades here have him going for a dang RP.....I really think it is a huge risk to trade Plouffe....
  13. I don't agree with trading a top 10 3B in Plouffe.....I just don't get it. Not unless you get a MLB player, SS or C, that is signed for 2+ years. And, he'd have to be top 10 at his position......
  14. Nick Gordon, HSer... Wimmers and Revere were taken years ago, years ago. Check the last 4 drafts......
  15. What if you took half the salary of one of those over paid corner guys? How many millions (in effect) would you pay for Norris, and give up a decent prospect?
  16. IMO, his stuff is too much for this level.......
  17. What? They've been taking HS players over college players, and RP to try to turn them into starters. I have no idea why you'd type that last sentence. None.
  18. That seems a bit light for the A's. I'd guess Zobrist alone gets one prospect better than any of those three.
  19. I don't anticipate any of those three being a MN Twin this season, alas. I don't understand why SD would trade their best/2nd best position player, who is 26......I don't think they will pay the price for Lucroy.....Susac is pretty much a lock to be the starter there, with Posey getting more 1B time.... I just don't see it.
  20. They have Duffey, Rogers, May, Berrios.....they need to actually use them.
  21. I say they just keep doing what they have been. They are 9 games over....
  22. Mind. Boggling. Don't worry, they clearly have a plan here.....
  23. Why didn't that immeasurable stuff work all the other places he was? I don't buy it. He is not good at his job imo.
