  1. Brewer just tweeted... Despite media reports, negotiations between the #Brewers and Matt Garza are ongoing, but there is no deal yet. What is going on? anyone know something about this?
  2. Surprisingly, This team is built to Win now and thats why i believe you have to go after the best pitchers possible. Whether that pitcher has a1st round draft pick tied to him or not. I say we go after one of the pitchers with a draft pick tied to him just because we will be able to leverage that and get a favorable contract. And honestly how many times do first round picks in Baseball pan out to be the true talent that they were thought to be in the majors?
  3. http://www.ocregister.com/articles/team-593349-million-city.html ANAHEIM – A proposed stadium lease for the Angels contains benefits so generous that in addition to covering the cost of the team’s renovation of the ballpark, it could bring team owner Arte Moreno tens of millions of dollars of new income... anyone have access to full article?
  4. Probably one of the more realistic trade ideas I've seen on the boards this WINTER that I LIKE!
  5. Great point. And this is Trumbo's stat line in a pitchers ball park compared to Cruz's in Hitters heaven......
  6. If MLB puts a Cap on the bidding for TANAKA, like they are proposing. Then it is likely many teams will bid the max amount of money for TANAKA....then what happens? That has not been determined, however it is likely TANAKA will get to choose what team he wants to negotiate with. With that being said, It really comes down to where he wants to play and I have no reason to think he would or would not pick us.... On a name for him, I LIKE...... TA-NAKA-NAKAAAA.... From light research TANAKA mean "dweller" sounds like a perfect fit for this team...
  7. Kendrick to KC could be "decent match" speculates 1 baseball person. Laa still looking for pitching what could we get in return? any ideas?
  8. Chuck Gets IT! We had 5 players start at 3rd in 2013. The position needed to be addressed and it was!
  9. David Freese: "To be honest, I have a huge chip on my shoulder, whether I was with #Cardinals or #Angels. I'm extremely focused, ready. "
  10. We took a player who hasn't don't much for us in the last two years and traded him for an above average player at a position that needed to be filled…he also got away from his home town where I'm sure he felt lots of pressure to deliver after being a world series hero and putting up the numbers he did in 2012….so a fresh start in a new town could be just what he needed…maybe I'm stretching here but overall its not a terrible trade and the negativety surrounding the trade is over the top.
  11. Yes he did play his entire(4 years basically) career in front on these fas, but once he had his coming out year in 2011 and then his career year in 2012 on top of being a world series hero….Fans expected him to be that stud player... So possibly that pressure on top of playing in an amazing baseball town like St Louis got to him and lead to a decline in his numbers last year…
  12. I don't see how this is a terrible trade for us…. Bourjos is a good player but nothing what you guys think he is and he is GLASS, only playing 156 games in the last two years …he didn't have the trade value to get the starting pitching we are looking for…but he did have the trade value to get a solid 3rd Baseman, which was a need for us if you guys forgot... We still have a talented/above avg. outfield in Hamilton, Trout, Calhoun/Shuck/Trumbo…. Freese fills a hole in our infield, giving us a solid 3rd baseman…which could allow us to move Aybar/Kendrick for pitching…aybar/kendrick will bring back better players in a trade then Bourjos would. Freese also gets away from his hometown where he felt lots of pressure as a player to produce. Just like Chris Davis did in Texas but once he was moved to Baltimore…..we all saw what happened there. Lastly to think that we are done for the offseason and don't have a chance to trade or sign some starting pitching because we traded Borjous is Crazy, lets the offseason unfold….
