    That's another thing that's annoying all you hear is castro trade rumors damn near everyday and it's been that way since july now acquiring this utility cac mf just adds to it.I don't get it baez will never hit like castro and russell hasn't even dominated double a yet.I have a gut feelin they gonna eventually trade castro if that happens Imma be ? I don't give a fucc who they get in return.I understand he can be absent minded at times and does stupid ? and he still can hit he best hitter the cubs got

    and hes also the most proven and hes on a team friendly deal too -- you already know there have been many cub prospects that were heralded and didnt pan out so i wouldnt be so willing to include castro in so many deals either

    i heard on the radio cubs were dangling baez in the zimmerman deal but they wanted russell -- baez along with castro are players theo inherited if any prospects get moved its gonna be one of them i think

    Detroit working hard to keep players just to have a ? bullpen year after year

    They need to let Max walk and extend the lefty, Price, or let him walk after the season too.

    Melky/Upton, and Miller should be our next two pieces.

    If they do sign Max, it should be 4 yrs.

    I would be fine if we went Verlander, Price, Sanchez, Porcello, Ray/Lobstein. Or if they traded Price too and went Verlander, Sanchez, Porcello, Ray and Lobstein.

    We've made an offer to Adam LaRoche. Also expressed interest in Hammel and Masterson. Marlins first offer to Giancarlo was a 6 year, 130 million dollar contract that he obviously rejected.

    No way the Dodgers include Young Joc in any deals. Best prospect they have.

    ^^

    Boston signed Pablo too, according to Ken Rosenthal. He said they planning on moving Hanley to LF, IDK about that.


    I'm not sure how I feel about the White Sox signing LaRoche. He fills a need for that left handed, power hitting bat to break up Abreu and Garcia in the lineup, but dude is 35 y/o. It's only a 2 year deal, so that's a plus. I wished they would have been in on the Jason Heyward trade, I'm tired of seeing the White Sox sign aging free agents

    Getting swept in the playoffs already showed us that.

    I think making it to the ALCS with 3 all stars out showed the rest of the league somethin. Go spend some more money.

    trading alexei after going out and signing laroche doesnt make any sense which is a shame because his value is the highest it will ever be after winning his 2nd silver slugger award especially given the options available at ss -- moving veteran pieces while they still have value should be the determining factor in the success of this team with the way they operate too bad they dont go about it that way

    D backs sign that cuban cat yasamy tomas 6 years 68.5.Puig and abreu changed the game up now all these cuban cats getting big contracts

    Also watch the giants or cards they could be sleeper squads in regards to Lester of Scherzer.Pitching market is on hold until Lester signs which should be in the next few days.I think he's gonna return to boston

    Damn nobody mentioned the Lawrie for Josh Donaldson trade? I'm surprised they got rid of Donaldson, Lawrie younger but he's AL WAYS hurt.

    Blue Jays gave up Lawrie, rhp Kendall Graveman, LHP Sean Nolin, and minor league SS Franklin Barreto...idk nothin but the rest of them ? though.

    Bautista, Encarnacion, and Donaldson gon be crazy in that lineup though....I read that Donaldson's power slowed alot in the 2nd half of the year but unless one of those youngsters turns out to be a star the Blue Jays won this.

    Watch this yoan moncado kid he's a 19 year old cuban prospect that's one of the highest rated international prospects ever he can play ss,2b and cf.Mlb declared him a free agent and he has to be cleared by the u.s. dept of treasury before signing,when he's cleared several teams will go after him.Cubs and Rangers can't sign him until july 2015 cuz they spent all their pool dough.
