¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 more I think about it, its a classy move by him to go in as a DoucheBack, because it allows KGJR to be the first Mariner HOF player next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemongoat Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I think going as a DBack is a pretty obvious choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoshotthefrog Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Wow, The Unit is going into the Hall as a DoucheBack. the only player that franchise will probably ever have in the Hall. Maybe down the road Goldschmidt will go in as a Diamondback if he continues he way has for the next 12 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebiglebowski Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Starting to look at the prospect rankings. Man are the Cubs and Twins farm systems stacked. Tigers might have 1 in the top 100 (Moya) but that's nothing new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigers might have 1 in the top 100 (Moya) but that's nothing new. yeah, the cubs are stacked, its disgusting, but thats what happens when youre one of the worst teams in the last decade. look at houston and pittsburgh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebiglebowski Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Yep but they also have the capability to rack up the payroll. I'd be pretty positive on the next decade if I were a Cubs fan. Prospects are going to bust but between Baez/Bryant/Russell/Soler, you only need 2 of those guys to live up to their billing to be in great shape for a while. Bryant seems as can't miss as they come right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catalinacaper Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Scherzer going to the Nats? Going to be a shitshow next year if they don't win a WS with all those free agents and no money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Makes sense for the Brewers, plenty of depth at SP. Kinda, yeah, but dealing him and estrada... they basically erased whatever depth they had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Zimmerman is the trade piece, theyre not trading struasburg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoshotthefrog Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 With a bunch of huge contracts already on the books I wonder how the Nats will be able to afford to sign Strasburg, Harper and Rendon when it's their turn for big money. You can only have so many $100 plus million guys on the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catalinacaper Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Cubs just traded Valbuena and Straily for Dexter Fowler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 so theres some speculation that gallardo going to texas means they're looking at going after Zimmerman. the brewers offseason has been so quiet this winter... and then out of nowhere... what is going on!

mayoroftelevision Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Cubs just traded Valbuena and Straily for Dexter Fowler. I'm going to miss Fowler (Springer probably will more since they became great friends), but he wasn't going to be resigned next season. Probably would have been traded by July anyway. Guy played hard and always had a great attitude. But I'll take that upgrade at 3rd, with hopefully Moran ready to take it over at some point.

catalinacaper Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Soooo Scherzer gets $210 mill for 7 contract years but he gets paid $15 mill per over 14 years... Nats will be paying him until he's 43 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More importantly it gives Springer an OF spot so that Gattis can DH more regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacredheart Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Smart move by Scherzer to take that deal. Rumor is also that the Nats arent trading anyone from the rotation this year, so it helps the Nats be able to afford them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goes back to my "better win one now" comment.. because they will be a joke in 6/7 years at this rate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayoroftelevision Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 More importantly it gives Springer an OF spot so that Gattis can DH more regularly. Carter is staying DH after 37 home runs. Springer already had his spot, he hit 20 home runs in his first 78 MLB games. This definitely gives Marisnick the starting job at CF now. After already giving Singleton a contract they have to keep trying him at 1st for while longer. Hopefully he settles down. People freaked out, but the kid is still only 23. I'm so happy to see several guys I watched play in the minors doing so well. Can't wait to take the trip to Corpus Christi to see Carlos Correa up close. I've go to see him at a small stadium before he's called up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
