Isn’t that what we do with our players? What do you think a still in his prime controllable starting pitcher would go for in July and why would a GM not seek maximum value for such a rare commodity?
Aquilar lost his groove. Only .091 avg since allstar game, including only 2 hits (1 homer) and tons of Ks. BA sunk 20 pts. Hopefully he can bounce back soon. I hate the HR derby
This is good, although expensive, insurance if we can't land a quality starter. Frequently we have been out of bullpen arms because our starters simply can't get much more than 15 outs. We had to do something.
Not sure what you are objecting to. Showing me all trades by all MLB teams says nothing about DS and his nature. I see no history or indication that says DS is going to be pushed into a trade just because of a deadline. Sure, if the right guy falls into their lap at the deadline then I'm sure he will make that call but typically that will be a smaller move like Jeffress was last year. The tendency is for teams to overpay right at the deadline and I just don't see DS getting involved in a bidding war because said deadline is looming. Frankly that is simply correct. There is not enough data to say what he will or won’t do.
Crooked Cap. I’ve never liked that. K Rod lite. It's a tribute to his late father who wore his that way because "that's the side the sun hits the face." Just honoring his dad. Well that makes more sense. Thanks for that, I wasn’t aware

Dude That got me thinking Brett Phillips to Yankees. To clarified just above. Had that Gray,Happ three way trade gut feeling for 30secs til I read eye blacks post Sorry about that. Should have posted the tweet. Glad Eye Black picked me up.
We’ve been bringing in low end rotation pieces and DJ has turned them into a functional staff. Perhaps they see something in Gibson that DJ can work his magic? I still feel that we will pick up Archer.
