Bronson 702 Report post Posted November 11, 2013 So who do you think is gonna land this Tanaka guy? 30-1 with a 1.57 ERA.... Jesus. Even by Japanesse standards that's incredible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bronson 702 Report post Posted November 11, 2013 We could but we won't. We are about 26 million away from the luxury tax limit. We will most likely be trading away Trumbo and Kendrick to get some decent starters, good bullpen arms and some prospects. We also need to start saving to pay for Trout's extension which will be a big payday. Also at 11:18... Flying sperm cells! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bronson 702 Report post Posted November 26, 2013 So to sum up what happened with the baseball hot stove so far... - Prince Fielder goes to Texas for Ian Kinsler. - David Freese goes to the Angels for Peter Bourjos. - Yankees sign Brain McCann to a 5 year 85 million dollar contract. - Angels sign Joe Smith to a 3 year 15 million dollar contract. -Giants sign Tim Hudson to a 2 year 23 million dollar contract. I'm sure there's more but those are just the standouts. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barrybran 851 Report post Posted November 26, 2013 I think Fielder will bounce back but if the Angels can get their shit together the AL West could be an even better race next year than the previous two years were supposed to be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bronson 702 Report post Posted November 26, 2013 *waits for bones response about the rangers tigers trade* And yes I agree Barry. The Angels are being way more cheap and smart this year. Joe Smith is a great pick up. Go look at his stats. It's impressive and you've probably never even heard of the guy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joe Smith is a great pick up. Go look at his stats. It's impressive and you've probably never even heard of the guy Admittedly I hadn't. I guess that's what you get for playing in Cleveland. As for the Rangers/Tigers trade everyone is saying the Tigers are better off but unless one of their prospects has power and is Major League ready or they sign a power hitter (who's left??) I don't see how it's better. Miggy will still pound it and they should have enough offensive punch leftover but I like the trade for the Rangers more than the Tigers. I expect David Price to be dealt too before the season begins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted December 4, 2013 damn, forgot about this topic... as for prince, i am fine with it... he was becoming the a-rod of our team... a decent season, and nothing in the playoffs... he'll do better in texas, that's a hitters dream of a ballpark, and we'll be just fine with the underrated ian kinsler who is a great doubles hitter, and he'll have lots of room in spacious comerica park... you could tell the relationship with prince was wearing out quickly, i think we got off easy IMO... dave pulled the deal off at the right time for our team... and with fister traded, we just cleared a lot of room to sign scherzer and give cabrera an extension... i wasn't on board with the joe nathan signing, because he's never had a healthy year... but he did last year, so there's that... but he's 38, so i hope he's got at least one more season in the tank because i would of loved to have brian wilson instead... it's a shame this probably means my favorite player is on his way out ... omar infante, i will miss you...

Barrybran 851 Report post Posted December 4, 2013 Bones, have the Tigers got another RBI guy waiting in the minors, do you think they'll target one in FA or do you think they'll take the lineup as is into next season? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaPn bOnEs 8527 Report post Posted December 5, 2013 they think this castellano guy (3B) in the minors is the next big thing... i am never sold on unknowns until i see it... that's why i want to keep infante... he or kinsler can play third... and if not, iglesias easily could... the one thing we lose is cabrera's protection, which keep in mind, did help him win back to back MVP's... but people forget about victor martinez... he's not one you want to pitch to either... he'll quickly make pitchers second guess pitching around miggy in certain situations... he and peralta were our best bats in the postseason...

Barrybran 851 Report post Posted December 5, 2013 I was thinking mostly of MIggy's protection. It's all well and good scoring 120-odd runs but when you only hit 40-something home runs you still need someone to drive you in 80 times. See what happens I guess.

Bronson 702 Report post Posted January 23, 2014 A little late but it looks like the Yankees got Tanaka. 7 years- 155 million. Hope he's worth it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob 1390 Report post Posted January 23, 2014 Fuck me. That's 16.5 mil a year for hitting a ball. And yet people on this planet don't even have clean water. I don't even know who he is but he's not worth it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
