Eppler gonna trade for Clevinger without giving up Adell or Marsh like the Man that he is.

If he does that, Arte should hand out another 10 yr contract.

based on last year's stats, Teheran is our #1 starter.  should we have offered him #1 money?

hint: that's not how it works, gentlemen.

Ohtani is better

He might be, well see when hes back on the field, either way he will be on a limit and give about half maybe 2/3 the innings if were lucky.

Who will be on a innings limit (delayed start, most likely), will pitch once a week and is coming off of TJ surgery. 

We need more consistency in this rotation.

 

 

[zenmaster]

Can everyone please remember he would have had to still accept our offer if we offered similar or even more?

[Bill Neftleberg]

first post, i have to think Jay Happ is on his way to the angels. Eppler will call on his buddy Cashman and say I need a starter

it will help lower the yankees tax bill and at this point Happ isnt a bad veteran to have

probably wont cost anything of substance either

I wonder if the whole Boras thing saying Keuchel has taken notice of what the Angels were doing was just another ploy to get more money/yrs from the White Sox. Good move on his part. 

everything Boras says is a ploy to get his clients more money

Not my money. I just want us to sign as many decent pitchers as we can. Keuchel off the board means one fewer option.

So much for going “all in”. I guess now we’re left banking on the health of Ryu... gee what could possibly go wrong.

This was as much of a no brainer signing as it gets and Eppler once again whiffed.

wow... ok, now im officially pissed, we should have been all over that   Epp better have a rabbit up his sleve somehow or were in deep shit 

how come you don't seem to remember that a player has to WANT to come to our team? we saw that with wheeler and again with Cole. it's possibly true with Keuchel, too. 

unless you can find statements from him saying how much he wanted to play in Anaheim, calm down.

[Bill Neftleberg]

i dont know why you guys are so dead set against Happ. he went 19-8 in a year and a half in NY in their band box and he takes the ball every 5th day and in the last 4 years hes won more games than Kluber and Keuchel as well

unless you have some knowledge that he either didnt, or we made a similar offer, the point is moot.

I told you. Eppler didn't want Keuchel.

I was laughing because someone think Dallas Keuchel is a #2 starter....at least. 

i think on the angels he would be. that's not keuchel's fault.
