I think if we had a deal in place for an ace trading an average pitcher like gallardo makes sense.
-
I'd pick it up. I expect them to be a serious contender again next year if the roster stays mostly the same. Gallardo doesn't help us improve... he is obviously declining. Inserting a nelson and trading for a true ace makes us a legit world series contender. Gallardo/ estrada out and nelson/ ace in
-
very nice ab's tonight guys... do you like the road or something?
-
gallardo's recovery early on obviously was a mirage. The guy just isn't that good anymore... can we please get some one else?
-
keep it goin boys! I never would have believed we'd still have this kind of a cushion in early June.
-
Here you go, sir. Pizza's almost here, so I'll be leaving the bar open while I eat. Speaking of pizza i discovered pizza hut now charges for marinara sauce... how ridiculous.
-
why was rock surprised there? 7 runs wood should have been out already
-
I can't figure out how SF is doing so well. Their extremely marginal hitters have to come down to earth at some point. They have more homers than us...
-
garza's era is worse, but it just looks like people have figured estrada out. At least you know garza has a long track record of success
-
I think most people just discredit him because of his smaller frame. He has more pitches than yo, better velocity, and nasty break on his off speed stuff. If he was say 6'5'' and had a fluid delivery I think most people would be as excited as they are about nelson.

And Middlebrooks value has never been lower. That trade would be incredibly stupid for the Brewers. I don't really think it is THAT bad. Middlebrooks has a very plus arm (former Pitcher), ability to be above average on defense, prototypical body for a 3B, and has plenty of power. High upside into all-star status, to me he is kind of a Go-Go late bloomer possibility. He's lacking in plate discipline, and there were news stories out earlier this year about how his vision had gone bad and he was fixing it. What is Thornburg? Upside into possible back of rotation guy, good bullpen arm. Of course you can always use more arms, but we can fill a bullpen much easier than we can fill 3B with a very good prospect. Sell high on Thornburg before he blows out his arm or something. Now we would have to get him inked to an extension, as it appears he's on a 1 year deal. So that would be a downside to commit to that. I may be nuts but that was just my line of thought. The organization believes thornburg can be a number 2 pitcher in the rotation not just a "back of rotation guy". He commands multiple pitches and has better velocity than yovani. We need to get a lot more than a question mark at 3b for him.

If butler is available why wouldn't alex gordon be as well? I would much rather have him backing up three positions. Don't they have any OF's knocking in the door in case the royals start tanking?
-
Yeah, what was up with that? ......hodor
-
well done brandon! what's the deal with the bullpen lately?
-
I thought he just looked kinda chunky. Big papi always has too.
-
cruz does look very big.... that's not in blue.
-
do the orioles defenders have magnets in their gloves?
-
I would imagine he will try to get two more innings out of him. Not that I agree with that
-
gallardo always trying to make everything perfect... I like the guy but getting something for him this off season wouldn't disappoint me
-
we need to get gomez into the all star game. Ridiculous that braun is ahead of him. Lucroy as well
-
annoyingly impressed with the orioles defense....They need to swing a trade for a plus starting pitcher badly it would make them very good.
-
can't get that davis!
-
Cruz's homer looked like a routine pop up off the bat
-
Segura has officially erased my early season distaste for him. WOO!
-
Did the ground ball to segura and the triple from jones look like poor positioning/ effort to any one else?
