Re: 2015 Trade rumors/deadline
granted, this is the first season we've actually had some pieces that teams want... judge, severino, mateo... bird and clarkin to a lesser degree... that we didnt have the last couple years. but the baby steinbrenners dont care, and cashman always wanted to be analytical build through the draft/international market type genius.
Re: 2015 Trade rumors/deadline
It may be overrated, but's it's there from other side, even from the point that all of us AL Easterners have to just try to keep up.
Re: 2015 Trade rumors/deadline
toronto seems to be keeping up pretty well.
Re: 2015 Trade rumors/deadline
You guys have four more series against each other, who do you think they're loading up for...don't be cheeky!
Re: 2015 Trade rumors/deadline
Though it is not expected to squash the deal...there is a hold up of formally announcing the Hamels trade due to "administrative issues".
Re: 2015 Trade rumors/deadline
of course theyre loading up for us... because we're in first. but if we were in 4th and 5th, as everyone projected before the year, do you think they wouldve sat back and went "nah, we dont need tulo or price, because the yankees are awful". they didnt make the donaldson move with us in mind, they made the move with the hopes of going to the world series. if you wanna say theyre loading up because theyre in our division, thats cool, but the giants and padres loaded up for the dodgers [or the dodgers and padres loaded up for the giants?]. trading and signing players are not just limited to the al east, because the yankees are there. its because teams have people in their front office that wanna win.

Hammer got called cheeky.....:40lol:... Moment of the night goes to Tobyette Hall
Re: 2015 Trade rumors/deadline
Thing I learned today. We've been operating at a payroll below last years, and that allowed AA to make the moves and add salary because he had the financial room to do so.

I'm really rooting for the Jays now. It would be great for baseball to watch that offense in October

Trust me Hammer they'd be loading up even if you weren't in first. Yankees are rarely out of anything. Yes, they want to go to the WS and to do that 9 times out of 10 we got to go through the Yanks or the Red Sox, well, we know where they're at so YOUR IT! Yes, other divisions would be similar, but we were talking about Yanks and Jays, our division.
Quit making me say nice things about the Yankees! Attachment 3220

Adam Duvall is the other from what I've read. Giants fans what do you know about both of these guys.

I like the Orioles getting Parra. Very solid player, surprised the Cards didn't go after him instead of the Moss statue
