Butcher'd

3 of those guys have shown absolutely nothing at the MLB level. Pestano I have high hope for, but he still has to actually return to form. Morin is great. Salas scares me. I like Rasmus, hope he can follow up last year

Wood has to show some improvement. He's got great stuff but he's at the point where he has to start getting some results at the minor league level. I mean, he's 24 and he was pretty wild in 2013...hurt all of last year. Could be a breakout and move quickly to AAA, or he could flame out and never amount to anythinng

I have to think they'll bring in a veteran bullpen arm at some point before the trade deadline. Not too upset about this

top 3 Heaney Newcombe Baldoquin IMO

Pujols: .790 OPS Hamilton: .690 OPS...horrible defense 2022 can't come soon enough

Kemp had a good year last year with the bat...if he repeats he makes them much better Meyers is a young power bat coming off a down year...think he can rebound Norris is one of the best hitting catchers in baseball

Nah...offense is much improved. Pitching is still solid

McDavid is a much much better prospect than both of those guys. Best since Crosby

Both teams do good here. Padres get a great replacement for Grandal

Wow, A's are going to suck next year. Padres improving

I seem to remember Petit's career being derailed by shoulder injuries...could be wrong

I think you do it even if you have to eat 50 million. Unless you think he's going to be productive this year (which I don't.) Eating 50 million still saves us 40+ million over 3 years. I would do that so fast That's an extra 13 million per season that could go to a 2nd baseman, 3rd baseman, or starting pitcher.

Kind of a sad story. Had good upside and now appears done

Trade him while he still has any value

Cron and Green for a solid 2nd baseman would be amazing

Already replaced Kendrick's production...solid

They need position players now. Baldoquin should be a nice start. But the infield depth is still weak.

To me, Pujols is on Arte. Hamilton could be too, but we don't really know Wilson, Blanton, Hanson are all definitely Dipoto's fault. I don't blame him for letting Ervin Walk In his tenure, Arte Moreno has been a bigger problem. Last two years things are much better

I so hope these signings backfire on them

McDavid is a helluva hockey player. Edmonton's only hope

I could see it. Price will be a Dodger probably. Greinke will opt out and go to the Yankees I bet. Cueto will sign with the Red Sox Zimmerman or Fister next offseason would be great

yep...good fit

Are you referring to the Dodgers or the Marlins there? Because the Dodgers really don't have an MLB ready highly touted MIF prospect. They have Seager who is awesome, but at least a year away (plays SS and 3B). They have Alex Guerrero who can't handle 2B defensively, and really isn't that great of a hitter either. Then they have Arrubereana who is an all glove short stop. They needed an upgrade at 2B. Kendrick was the best option for them. Great trade for the Angels, but it also makes sense for the Dodgers even if it's an overpayment

Who said we're interested in Stanton?

I think I'm the only one who doesn't find him to be that douchey. He's not out driving 110 on the freeway like Puig is
