I didn't see that! Butler for Gausman as PTBNL straight up would be one hell of a ballsy deal by DD.

I don't think either team would agree to this. I really don't think Butler or Hosmer is going anywhere. Unless the Royals got top pitching for one of them.

Reynolds was an extremely frustrating guy to watch over a course of a season. I'm just not a big fan of relying heavily on a guy that garners the bulk of his counting stats in a 1/3 of the season. He is an absolute black hole in the line up when he's frigid. I have faith that DD can replace his bat and glove fairly easy.

So are you not a big fan of Davis as well? What about Wieters?

I really think the only trade that looks even remotely realistic at the moment is Josh Willingham. I could see Britton/Arriet and Avery, + a C prospect for him. Who's at 1B, depends on this happening and McLouth. If DD aquires Willingham, I can see him DH alot, and a little time in LF to get Betemit in at DH some against RH. I think this makes Davis the FT 1B.

1. Markakis RF

2. McLouth LF

3. Jones CF

4. Willingham DH

5. Wieters C

6. Davis 1B

7. Hardy SS

8. Machado 3B

9. Roberts/Casilla/Valencia 2B

Bench- Betemit, Reimold, Casilla/Valencia, C (Teagarden?)

We signed that guy? Awesome.

    • My “comfort index” is currently: Extremely High -none- High Coulombe Webb Cano Perez Medium Kimbrel Akin Low Baumann Need More Info Suarez If Kimbrel is healthy, I might have more comfort. If Suarez makes a successful conversion and Wells gets healthy and moves to pen, we could actually have a really good pen. Irvin could contribute as well if Grayson returns and takes his spot in the rotation. We need a strong pen in the playoffs. 
    • Pretty incredible Bradish threw today. Maybe his tear wasn’t too bad. Either way, hope he stays healthy. We’re a World Series contender if we have Burnes, Brad, and Rod in October
    • Funny how Mullins’ and Cowser’s numbers go down when we play them versus LHP. That’s gonna happen. They should be platooning with Hays/Mckenna. 
    • He gave up a couple seeing eye singles, but also allowed the first home run of his professional career, a two-run shot. Then went back to striking guys out and getting ground balls. Hit 96 MPH and had a real nice change going at time. He was taken out after 67 pitches (70 seems like the Low-A pitch count so far), striking out 10 and left a runner on 1st that didn't score. I'd really like to see them extend his pitch count some and challenge him against High-A ball hitters.
    • He looks like he’s coming into his own and starting to live up to the hype.  He will be a test, for sure. 
    • How would making him a reliever help if he is giving it up in the first?
    • If Cowser keeps it up, his name won't be in the lineup much anyway and it will be back to Hays most likely. Since April 15th he's 8-47 with 1 XBH and 24Ks to 6BB. People complaining about Cedric should chill out. I was hoping for a .780 range OPS and now that's looking like I might have gone too high.
