    Really when you look at it, there is no point at all to trade Fielder unless we get something back that will have an immediate impact on our club. If we are getting only prospects back that are years away still then we might as well just take the comp picks for him and trade prospects for pitching. I think Doug knows this obviously, which is why he can't find any takers for Prince. No one will give up any major league ready, or near major league ready pitching for him. This isn't a surprise to anyone obviously, but I really don't see Melvin even entertaining trading Prince for prospects until the deadline. That would only be the case if we are out of contention too, and can get some prospects that will help in a year or two, or more than the two prospects we'd get for him anyway. Although, I think if Doug could get 3 or 4 good prospects for him between now and the deadline he might as well do it. I'd rather get a couple more prospects into the system now than wait for the 2 we would get, and have to wait 3 or 4 years for them to develop.

    I really don't see Marcum being 3. I would think that Narveson will be 5, so there shouldn't be a problem with Wolf being 3. I would think the other starter we get will slot in at the 4 spot.

    I don't know what would stop Melvin from going all out to get Greinke. He's really got nothing to lose at this point. The only way we can compete and save his job is if we have pitching. Selling the farm system really doesn't matter to him at this point. He already started to show that by trading Lawrie. Might as well trade off some others to get Greinke. A rotation of Greinke, Gallardo, Marcum, Wolf, and Narveson would be near the top of the NL.

    I still think Fielder should be traded. Just means Melvin can be more open to trading him for prospects is all.
  5. PrinceEatMeat
    I'm fine with this deal as long as Weeks is signed to an extension. Marcum can be slotted in as our #2.
  6. PrinceEatMeat
    Frankly, as long as Jeffress, Rogers, and Odorizzi aren't involved I'll be extremely happy. But somehow I doubt that's the case.

    Nevermind, it's pitching prospects. Let the speculation begin. http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/sports/111358854.html

    If we for some reason we traded Lawrie, which would be ridiculous, I'm guessing that means that a Weeks extension is close.
  9. PrinceEatMeat
    Well, now Melvin just needs to find a way to get one more starter at least. This was a good pickup for one of the two.
  10. PrinceEatMeat
    OMG. Please tell me they aren't trading any good prospects. Nonetheless, glad we got ourselves a good pitcher. 13-8 with a 3.64 ERA last year. And that's in the AL.

    I think this situation would warrant Doug getting involved. Got nothing to lose by talking to the Sox to see if they're interested.
  12. PrinceEatMeat
    Ok Doug, get on the phone and get the same deal done for Prince with the Sox.

    Very sad news. Ron deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. I know many were annoyed with him as an announcer, but he sure was passionate. I agree that the Cubs probably just lost their biggest fan.
  14. PrinceEatMeat
    I agree. I'd much rather see guys like Gamel and McGehee traded.
  15. PrinceEatMeat
    I hope so. I would love to see him locked up to a long-term deal.
  16. PrinceEatMeat
    Not happy with Jon Miller being gone, but don't really care about Morgan. I like Hershiser and Valentine.
  17. PrinceEatMeat
    Don't like the sound of the Weeks situation. I don't think that necessarily means he'll be shopped, but it probably means that Lawrie won't be.
  18. PrinceEatMeat
    Problem with Dunn is that we wouldn't even start to consider him until we got rid of Fielder. And that likely won't happen for awhile. If we signed Dunn we're conceding that we are getting rid of Fielder and lose all leverage.

    http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=5864835 I wonder if this will lead Ryan Braun to shoot for the same kind of deal soon?

    I think Jeter will be stubborn for awhile, and maybe even look around to see if there's any interest. Then he'll realize that no one wanted him at even anywhere near what the Yankees offered, so he'll come crawling back and take their offer. $15 million is far more than he's worth anyway, so the Yankees are already being generous in my opinion.
  21. PrinceEatMeat
    According to the ESPN Rumor Blog they have; Well, maybe that thought wasn't as far off as I thought. I still think Jeter is being a little ridiculous by wanting $25 million a year. I think he just needs to come back down to reality a little bit and settle with the Yankees. It would be really funny if he did leave though.

    Uribe is a good player. Definite upgrade over Theriot, who will likely be non-tendered now. Good signing for the Dodgers. Big low to the Giants though. They are in desperate need of a SS now for sure. As unlikely as it is, I wonder if they'd kick the tires on Jeter?
  23. PrinceEatMeat
    I don't think there's any way possible that he gets less than what Howard got. And I think that's what most people are expecting him to get. So I have to disagree with you. Obviously people think Howard got overpaid, and he did, but there's no reason to think that Fielder won't also be overpaid. I would be shocked if Boras couldn't get him at least $25 million per year. So I highly doubt he'll regret rejecting $20 million a year.
  24. PrinceEatMeat
    I agree that it's obvious that Fielder is our biggest trade chip right now. The problem is that I'm not sure that any team are seriously interested enough in him right now. Teams might have a passing interest, but I don't think anyone will come calling for awhile. Hopefully things amp up at the winter meetings, or I'll lose hope in the situation.

    Goodbye Gomez? Either off the team or to the minors.
