Trade deadline is 31Jul.
Should be an interesting weekend for contenders looking to pick up an extra arm or bat.
Phils have ditched Hellickson, Kendrick and Neshak (All-Star) so far.
I like it.
Keep moving it along fellas and get thes kids up here ASAP.
Who knows - even if they're disappointing in the minors they may be a pleasant surprise like Nick Williams.
Is your team a buyer or seller this year?

seems like lately, every trade deadline fizzles. pretty slow going so far.
doesn't help that so many veterans are on untradeable contracts, so you get a bunch of trades for a bunch of prospects the casual fan has never heard of.

Red Sox are buyers, but there's not that much left in the till, and I am hoping they don't impulse buy a SP to replace Price. Cost is gonna be too high.

Wait until the next Fister start and see if you feel the same way. With Fisted and Porsmello going two out of five days I can't see the Sox winning the division. If Darvish wasn't a rental, I'd like to see him in Fenway. Sonny Gray isn't a rental but he's too fragile. I don't want to see Rafa Devers traded. Even with a starter, I don't see this team winning the big prize. |

And what do you mean about Porcello? Back to back Cy Youngs, baby.

If the Yanks get Gray or Darvish, that could be it for the division. Past Sale and Kimbrel, the pitching flat out sucks. No power, can't run the bases. Its getting sad for a team with this much talent. And to top it all off, the big news is David Price's feud with Dennis Eckersley. Yeah, it's great for Price to be sticking up for a teammate. It's things like this that can rally a team, like the Varitek-A Rod fight. But he's acting like a little bitch. "just show your face in the clubhouse". Really, you going to fight him and end your season on the DL, bugwit? Hopefully, Farrell gets the axe after the season. This incompetent has gone far enough. |
