  1. Its fine they are pretending to announce Luc like they will keep him but if they actually let him play this weekend they are insane.
  2. Ever read the responses most guys like him get on twitter? I dont blame him, that place is a cesspool. I just use it to follow news and sports and I never tweet.
  3. That's our Brewer management for you. Lets hope they are smart enough to just write him in now for a little leverage then make him a late scratch.
  4. Will there be any left by the time Stearns wants to pull the trigger? I dont know. I wonder what a package of Anderson and Junior would have gotten from Miami?
  5. I think Rosario is on par with Arcia but the rest you are right. TdA is just a throw in to have a catcher and Dom Smith isnt much of a power hitter at all. I cant possibly imagine that is the best deal we can get for Luc with what is being thrown out there in this incredible sellers market.
  6. Agreed. If he goes out on the field until he is traded, I will be both shocked and disgusted. Looking at the trades that have occurred and the "rumored" ones, we are going to have a heck of a deal coming back to us.
  7. Your link says the Yankees would NOT do this deal... Yeah Stearns should slam the phone down on the Mets now unless its Rosario, Smith, Thor, Matz, and the ghost of Tom Seaver who may or may not be still alive.
  8. I agree. Yes Arcia or Rosario could be traded down the road but why not go for the pitching now? This organization is lacking in impact power bats and pitching. The Mets are a really bad match for our organization especially if any of the scale includes value for TdA.
  9. 2 top 100 prospects (Rosario being a prized piece) and a decent SS prospect plus a good buy-low catcher? I'd take it. I know that throwing in Jeffress isn't great, but I'll take it if it makes the Mets put in the extra oompf. JJ alone is worth a top 100 plus.
  10. Oof. That'll take a whole lot more than a teaspoon of sugar. I am not a fan of Stearns, at all. He has done little more than churned and if you add it all up, he has given up more than he has received. Admittedly, its still very early of course. That said, there is no way in the world that he or any other GM would consider TdA as anything other than a final piece thrown in for Luc just so we have a catcher on the MLB roster. The Mets would need to give up both their top prospects (Dom and Rosario) and honestly I dont really like either as a fit for us. And to trade away our only remaining elite trade chip and receive no impact pitching prospects would be insane. Im not buying TdA being a target for Stearns. No way.
  11. The likelihood of us knowing who is on the table for sure right now are the same as me dating Margot Robbie. Everything we hear is fertilizer. We will know when we know. Still the returns have been remarkable for weaker chips than we have. We have every reason to think we will have a top 5 farm system on August 1.
  12. Other teams are getting incredible deals for trade chips no where near as valuable as Luc. Why wouldn't Stearns get the best return of all the July trades?
  13. Two more trades and two more top 100 caliber prospects. This should be a monster return for Luc.
  14. 100%. We are going to bring back at least two with a Luc and JJ trade plus a lot more. It's a great time to be a GM for a rebuild.
  15. I don't like them talking to the Mets other than to use them for leverage. I don't like their farm at all.
  16. Wasn't Addison Russell a top ten when he was traded?
  17. I don't think anybody is selling his skill set/control short. The Cubs trading away a top prospect isn't a logical comparison for Lucroy as there are many variables in play that result in them losing their top prospect without affecting their ability to compete for a WS now and over the next 5yrs. That info matters. Sure it does. I agree. But all the teams we are talking about for 55 pages are in the race for the WS and none of them are getting contribution from those prospects to this point. Adding Luc is a net positive to their WS hopes and takes nothing away from their MLB roster. Of all the teams that could afford to lose a blue chip prospect, the Red Sox are best set up to replace their projected production with a veteran FA in the next few years. They also have a GM that doesn't value prospects as highly as others. Yes Benintendi would be a huge price but you're talking about a team that could realistically sign Harper when he is a FA. The Indians have the best depth in their farm and the biggest need to get to the WS for their fanbase. Who knows what we will get, but based on all of the frustrated GM quotes we have seen with the Luc discussions, it isn't because he is demanding their version of Flores or Rijo.
  18. Luc is an all star catcher with 1.5 years of cheap control. Don't sell that short. If 30 innings of Chapman is worth the Cubs number 1, Luc is worth that and more.
  19. I always find these "leaked" quotes interesting. I somehow think if the Angels offered Trout the Red Sox would discuss those 4.
  20. I don't understand what this means? Are they saying that Lucroy is the "significant piece" and teams better pony up, or are they saying that another team has made them a "significant offer" and you better put your best offer on the table right now or else you'll get left out? Typical bad journalism. It can be read several different ways. I will assume it means we are being offered a top 10 talent or Margot Robbie.
  21. If it's less than two I'd be shocked. We have some of the best trade chips avaiable in a sellers market.
  22. The Braves have a very smart FO. I'm jealous of how they are rebuilding compared to us.
  23. I am so jealous of the Braves FO. They are so much smarter than the rest of us at rebuilding.
