That's where it belongs but a lot of people never even look at the section. I don't go over there nearly as much as here, myself. I thought this was the best place, for now, for the most people to see it.

I do this too on stuff that is fresh or important. I merge them later when interest wanes.

It's interesting to see the downstream consequences of Oakland's double acquisition so quickly. Given that you know Tampa prefers a NL landing spot for Price, it really puts a squeeze on the Yanks, Jays and Mariners. If I'm a Toronto or Seattle fan now, aside from really hoping Cliff Lee comes back healthy, it's limited options remaining.

Close to a 5 ERA at Yankee Stadium. Certainly seems like a knee jerk move.

If we were down two starters, I'd have been ok with taking a flyer there. I think that Randy Wold or Joe Saunders are just as likely to give you the mediocre results that he will probably produce.

The Diamondbacks will eat $2.05MM of the $4.1MM owed to McCarthy for the rest of the year, tweets Buster Olney of ESPN.com. Meanwhile, the Yankees will pay the $1MM assignment bonus to McCarthy’s.

Yeah, I wish the Orioles and MLB sections were merged. I find myself coming here les because I want regular baseball news and usually go to a different spot for that then just come here for Orioles-only news.

I don't think it is unreasonable to have all the MLB together, it would encourage discussion and better analysis. There simply isn't enough discussion in the mlb-only forum.

I go to the Oriole section first but from that point forward I just use the New Posts button which shows all threads with new posts regardless of which board they are on. Often I don't even know or care what particular board a post I am reading or responding to is on,

      Basallo for Miller y/n?

      By frankwhite · Posted

      I think we can get that help and win a world series without trading Basallo for it. Just because we don't consider it a problem now in May, doesn't mean it won't be.

      Yeah, I'd put Hays' shot of throwing him out from that distance at about 80%+. He was completely dead to rights on a decent throw, it's a shame he chucked it 100 feet away. Hopefully, it's something he can get better at. His throws to third seem okay, but his throws to home are pretty brutal.

      No doubt Westburg! It looks to me that Mayo’s place on this team next season will be in RF/DH.

      Defense is important to me. I remember the excruciating development of Mountcastle, where some people insisted his defense was fine, even though he looked awful everywhere but first, and that’s where he ended up. I don’t want the same thing with Mayo or anyone else, for that matter, so sure, I’d trade Mayo(btw, Would you rather have Mayo or Westburg at 3B?) The main point is that Miller is wasted on the As and they aren’t being responsible owners unless they turn him into as much Future Asset as possible. Most of the teams that Can trade for him don’t need him.

      Next year’s problems/dilemmas will come when they arrive. And we can address those things when the appropriate time comes. This season we are playing for a World Series and only have one weak spot on the team… high leverage, weapon at the back of the pen (closer).

      Exactly, the issue is not arm strength it's accuracy which was discussed in another thread-it's a problem.  I think Cowser has looked much better in the field this year and could be the long term answer in LF, he's so fluid for his size, I think the routes will improve but the arm.....When he is struggling at the plate it seems to affects his confidence/defense.  He's also struggling to advance runners.

      Oh okay, you mentioned back-to-back World Series. I think we could add other pitchers not named Miller that could help, and it wouldn't have to include Basallo. Burnes will more than likely not be returning. Means? Wells and Irvin? This isn't what we need right now? okay, so next year? Again, I feel using those type of players in a trade would be better using it for a starter.
