Orioles trade Davies for Parra. Your verdict?

[mdbdotcom]

You laugh, but DD is insane. He might do it. Just watch.

You really think he might do that, even though it would leave a huge hole in the rotation and make it impossible to compete? Or, are you being sarcastic? I can't tell.

330 OBP for his career. Nothing to get excited about.

I'm talking about this season. He actually put up 4 wins on D in 2013. He just isn't playing great D this year, but he is getting on base better than just about anyone other than Manny.

I like this trade. Definite upgrade in LF.

With that being said, I'll hate this trade in the offseason if we don't resign him.

I don't know what I believe. I really held out hope he might do the right thing and sell. I am not a big fan of DD right now. My stress level will go down once the deadline passes and he doesn't give up more prospects we can't afford to trade.

Parra's actually getting on base at a better clip than Manny this season.

Not that I would do it but how about Givens + Comp B pick?

They want MLB ready players.

Bundy: book it.

He's rocking a 370 BABIP and his career wRC+ is 95.

He's as or more likely to fall back to career norms as he is to continue at his current level.

Not too many guys become a totally different hitter their sixth year in the league.

He was at .370 last time I checked. It one thing Parra is doing this year. Still a stupid trade.

This has rental written all over it.

I don't like the trade. I said "at least he's getting on base" kind of sarcastically. I feel like you think I'm okay with the move. I hate it.

I hate it.

Fire breathing space cats! This piece is a metaphor for Duquette and the pressures of being a GM in the AL East. I encourage you to meditate on it and find what it means to you. Is he vaporizing the competition? The farm system? You decide.

It's a cat. It could be spitting fire on just about anything--just because it feels like it.

I think it perfectly represents the Dodgers over the last few years. Why do they make the moves they do? Because they can.

I like those odds. What are the odds that Snider becomes the guy he was the 2nd half of last year?

Just realize that Travis Snider has been about a win better with the glove than Parra so far this season. This team is supposed to be built around D.

I was just looking for an excuse to post those stats.

I know you don't like anything, ever.

That's not true. I always like Johnny Cash music, and Cheeseburgers.
