Or he is a cancer to the locker room. I only guess on that by the number of times he's been traded to teams. And then, he Mets are out. They desperately need his bat. Oh well...

Surprised he's not being pursued. He totally turned the Mets around last year after getting him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He totally turned the Mets around last year after getting him. That's what's confusing. He's done well at all his atops but he never lasts long there.

Maybe there is an issue with him. I don't know but it is odd. Stunned that NY isn't trying to keep him, but they're literally saying they can't afford him. Hope he goes back to the AL.

He'd be idea for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianIrish 0 Posted December 25, 2015 Author Share Posted December 25, 2015 Daniel Murphy to the Nats reportedly. This is a signing that actually makes a ton of sense to me.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stunned that he hasn't gotten picked up yet. Still scratching my head that NY isn't keeping him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunSlinger 28 Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 I didn't see it mentioned but I'm loving Chapman trade to the Yankees, talk about a three headed monster in the bullpen. And I'm all for Chapman being suspended to start the season, a 60 day suspension would prevent Chapman from reaching his mandatory service days for becoming a free agent for the 2017 season and would remain under Yankee control.

CanadianIrish 0 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 In a trade that makes great sense for both teams, the Jays send Ben Revere to Washington for Drew Storen. Nats get their lead off guy, Jays get a badly needed arm in the pen. Now it looks like it will be a combo of Michael Saunders/Dalton Pompey in left for the Jays, which I love. Improved the defense, it's a wash on the bases between Pompey and Revere, lose at the plate (but if there's one team that can afford to it's Toronto). And it gives them the flexibility to move Sanchez to the rotation if they want. Great trade!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heard rumors they may be shopping Miller now. Again, just a rumor though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm headed down to Florida in a month to check out a couple of Jays games. First time going to spring training.....really looking forward to it It's a huge thing here in Arizona. It's like a holiday. Spring training that is. Since, I'm not originally from Arizona I don't get too pumped. Being from the Midwest, I change with the seasons. And that is still engraved in me to this day. I still have to get through the Super Bowl and Men's CBB before I can start to think about baseball. . But I should be really ecstatic because the Cubs FINALLY have a real shot at the World Series.

coltssb 1,044 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 This is he year!!!! I hope... Dexter Fowler resigns with the Cubs. Didn't see that coming. Does that mean Soler is trade bait later on? Hats four outfielders all wanting playing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love his enthusiasm and attitude. Deal is for only 1 year anyway. He had a deal with Baltimore but opted for Chicago for logical reasons.

OKCIrish99 3 Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Cubs also traded Chris Coghlan to Oakland for Aaron Brooks. He's young but his ERA is high. Don't like giving up Coghlan but maybe they something in Brooks. Vegas, do you know anything about this new pitcher from Oakland? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianIrish 0 Posted February 26, 2016 Author Share Posted February 26, 2016 Do the Cubs want Jose Bautista for a steal of a deal at 5 years, 150+ mill???? But here's the added bonus, it covers his 36-41 years, he's declining defensively and his swing is all about timing so it shouldn't be much of an issue when he slows down a bit.... Talk about hurting your reputation amongst a fanbase. And making the new GM the good guy in the whole deal... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
