Pirates really giving up more for Chris Archer than what they got from Houston for Gerrit Cole. Ok then

Archer is signed at a very team friendly contract with 2 team options at below market, team control is everything.

Come on Eppler 13 more minutes I believe in you.

if true seems like an over pay by the pirates.

Which is why Eppler should be shopping Skaggs and Heaney.

No way.  What are the odds you get a better pitcher even in the future than Skaggs and Heaney?  If you trade one will that give you guys that are as good as these two are in two years?

Pirates just got 2 first round picks that are 23 and 24 and might even get another 3rd player.  Eppler should at least see what teams are willing to give up for one of our lefty starters.

That ends the Parker trade talks to the Dodgers I would assume.

"I got some real neat players. What did you get out of the trade deadline, Charlie Eppler?"

"I got a rock."

 

[GrittyVeterans]

Axford is pretty bad. Not sure what the dodgers are thinking there

[Barrett]

Anyone else feeling a little sick to their stomach that the Angels only traded Maldonado and Kinsler with all these over pays going on?

[Lou]

Dbacks bullpen is legit
