    Cliff Lee is likely the start for the All Star team and its really doubtful the Indians get two starters from a crappy ball club
  2. endaround
    Pat Burrell is having an outstanding season yet again. Bay has rebounded from last year. Dunn is Dunn. Holliday is enjoying another Coors inspired offensive showcase. So no, there are previously really good players having really good seasons. Right now Corey Hart has a stronger claim than does Braun.
  3. endaround
    Because it means if LaPorta scuffles at AAA at all it becomes problematic.
  4. endaround
    That's not from the ESPN stable of baseball "analysts", you know the ones who have Braun as the #1 OFer in the NL for the All Star game.
  5. endaround
    Mike Gimble knows absolutely nothing except how to sell himself to radio hosts
  6. endaround
    Yes after a huge hot streak. He'll fall off. And Hardy won't give up the money such a move would entail. You're talking $5m per year difference in salary.
  7. endaround
    The point is the Brewers need to make a space for him or trade him in the next two seasons. Escobar has time, Gamel has another year, Salome as a catcher has a boatload of time, LaPorta really doesn't.
  8. endaround
    Cain should absolutely be traded by the Giants. And then when he becomes average away from a park entirely suited to him (his ERA tends to be a full run higher away) the Giants can sign him for less as a free agent than if he stayed.
  9. endaround
    Its also important to note that LaPorta's age makes him expire as a prospect faster than others. He's 23 now in AA, 24 in AAA and than at 25 his stock will plummet if not in the big leagues.
  10. endaround
    Pretty sure Sheets owes you a game "used" bat for saving him an earned run.
  11. endaround
    Just watch Dillon once. He can't get to anything to his left, a big deal when Fielder is at 1B. He can't get down due to a bad back. He's just a butcher up the middle.
  12. endaround
    He's Suppan at $12m less.
  13. endaround
    They could get Vizquel for a PTBNL you'd think. Betancourt would be available you'd think for something. Scutaro wouldn't take much. Do they want a shortstop to fill in or do they want a top guy?
  14. endaround
    Doesn't this uber hot streak prove Hardy isn't consistent?
  15. endaround
    Or more likely they would hit like Hardy did his first year. Or Weeks did his first year. Or how Gordon did his first year.
  16. endaround
    Sabathia wants and is likely going to get 7 years at AAV of $22-24m. And the Dodgers have the money to spend. So you may have to kiss getting a first round pick goodbye.
  17. endaround
    Making a deadline deal is a lot more like conducting an auction. And that means our old friend winner's curse often shows up: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winner%27s_curse
  18. endaround
    Sabathia over the past 2.5 season has been better than his career averages. What he did as 20 year old in 2001 has little bearing on his current ability
  19. endaround
    JJ Hardy is an average short stop that will cost $35 million more over the next four years as comapared to the same production from Escobar.
  20. endaround
    The Dodgers can afford to sign Sabathia after the season and will pay accordingly. They have $13m to Furcal, $10m to Lowe, $9m to Kent, and $8.5 m to Garciaparra coming off the books.
  21. endaround
    Except they are running Ibanez out in the field and he can't play the field at all anymore. Now if they had Ibanez at DH that would be one thing. But Nelson really should be moved to the Mariners or Nationals or Royals and just give him a chance since he couldn't even DH ahead of Gwynn in Milwaukee.
  22. endaround
    Why would Hardy agree to moving off shortstop a place where he can make 8 figures a year to 2B where he'll make mid to high 7 figures or 3B where he'd be a mid 7 figure guy? We're talking serious money here.
  23. endaround
    Which is why Braun has more trade value
  24. endaround
    Its not age, its due to the fact he makes Sheets look like Cal Ripken when it comes to injuries.
  25. endaround
    Braun could bring back even better pitching and we have as many replacements for him
