  1. Wouldn't even bother with Detroit
  2. They had a scout at the brewers game, but that would be such a short sighted move.
  3. I'm still wondering if Lucroy will have enough interest, Indians guy on a podcast with Buster said Indians still aren't interested in Lucroy because of Gomes long term contract and the fact that they want pitching more Texas ditto, hearing the same..
  4. So a Braves scout, Ted Simmons is watching the Brewers game. Not sure if it means much for trade deadline reasons though, Braves are in last place. It would be short sighted for them to trade for lucroy
  5. Id take Clevinger as a 2nd piece, potential to play well and flip for more value in a year or two..
  6. Wouldn't mind Thornburg in a full time closers role.
  7. It's easily a sellers market for Relievers here, always that risk of implosion. I'd trade Jeffress.. I think Thornburg could be even better anyways, want to give him a test as the closer
  8. I'd guess something like RHP-Ariel Jurado and 1B-Ronald Guzman. I just don't think Jeffress value is all that great. I'd love to be wrong about that. I think the Rangers would be very happy to do that deal. Jeffress and Guerra would be a huge boost to that team.
  9. Id love to have two top 50 prospects too, but that's not easy to get.. And anyways, those rankings don't always matter. Some guys could enter the top 50 rankings next year..
  10. A comp pick for lucroy would be insanely awful. But it's obviously not happening
  11. The Rangers have a major need for pitching, both starting and relieving.. Wonder what they would give up for a Guerra / Jeffress package
  12. Then you're going to have to settle for a back-of-the-rotation starter or average starting position player. The advantage of low-minors players is you get potential superstars. Potential being the key word...Luc is too valuable to throw away on player(s) with POTENTIAL. He's a proven commodity, thus you should get proven commodity(s) back. If the potential doesn't pan out, you set the rebuilding back even further. A back of the rotation starter or average position player for an All star catcher under control for another year and a half and potentially the best at his position?? If that's the best you can do...hold him and take the comp pick..that player would have as much potential as a low A player would. Who are these proven stud AAA players you want? I'm guessing Gallo and who else?
  13. I'm not sold on jimmy, if a team came with a good offer I'd take it, don't think value will be good enough for guerra so probably keep him
  14. It sucks that he's playing well for another team now but Diaz could be a good one. And Villar has been fun at SS offensively. At the same time im gllad that segura is playing well, he deserved it after the struggling in his life he had to go through with his Son passing away
  15. The article is a week old now, but if you are thinking about a Thornburg trade make sure to read this Fangraphs article, My favorite under the radar trade deadline target. Can we show this to GMs? Maybe they'll give us a haul for him then
  16. This Tigers fan said his Tigers could have a better offer for Lucroy than the Mets offer of D'arnaud.. I asked him what it was.. He said " James McCann..
  17. By Baseball Prospectus' PECOTA system, Chapman is worth .5 WAR the rest of this season, Jeffress worth 1.1 WAR through 2019. I really don't think it's a relevant question though. Teams that make deadline deals are trying to win this year. Jeffress' value past this year won't mean a lot to the team trading for him, IMO. It's almost strictly about what he can do over the remaining games this year. Not true at all, control is very important. Teams can try to win now and perhaps trade him for 75% of the haul or whatever later, or keep him and for many years of competing.. And Jeffress is a very good player, not quite chapman but he'd be a very good addition to a playoff team. There is only one Chapman.
  18. Just make it a 3 team trade then But that sounds like too much for the Indians to give up for a oft injured player with a year of success at best
  19. Would the brewers be willing to trade all those relievers? That would be quite the turnover but it could help the rebuild tremendously
  20. Honored that his first game will be against the Brewers
  21. Don't know much about Torress, but that would seem to be a haul. I'm not sure where our relievers (Smith, Jeffress, Thornburg) would be valued in comparison to Chapman. Our guys have more team control, but lack the "star" power that Chapman has, and a team that places more emphasis on this year than the summation of the next three may be willing to pay more for a true rental like Chapman than our guys. They could be thinking, What's more valuable to us - a guy who will give us 2.0 WAR the remainder of the season, or a guy who will give us 7.0 over the next 3.5 years (and just 1.0 this season). Just using arbitrary WAR numbers as an example. Chapman is def a much better player then those 3, probably the best pitching option in the market this offseason.
  22. They've been great all year, don't let one bad day fool you Actually I would kind of agree. The way people talk about our pen, you'd think we'd be higher ranked than 17th in MLB. Yeah, I was pretty surprised, last time i looked, according to fangraph we're 17th ranked bullpen according to WAR.
  23. Torress who is the Cubs no.1 prospect + more for Chapman rental is on the table according to Jon Heyman Wow
