Why wouldn't they? You don't pitch around a guy when you are up 8-0.

Yeah I'm getting sick of listening to the talking heads on ESPN radio and the like discussing this. Listening this morning they were going through trade scenarios endlessly. Pretty much everyone agreed you don't trade a generational player of his caliber. They even mentioned they wouldn't do it even if someone took on Pujols and his contract and got major league talent + top minor league talent. They kept saying to the Cubs for Schwarber (if not hurt), Kris Bryant, another Major league starter and top minor league pitching talent. I'd never pull the trigger on trading him.

An ERA north of 9 is not just kinks.

The only possible explanation is that Shoe was on a banned substance in 2014.

How many tickets is Arte buying per game to hit that 3 million mark?

Hurry back Skaggs, Wilson and hopefully Heaney. Santiago, Heaney, Weaver, Wilson, Tropeano beats anything with the word Shoemaker in it.

what's the line when he moves? under .150? .120?

Sorry to see he didn't turn into the .270 hitter with 20 homers per year as some here predicted. They forgot where we got him obviously.

This is the dumbest idea I've heard in a long time and I've heard a lot of dumb ideas.

Now we throw Shoe out there after this massacre. Today isn't going to be pretty. 17-1 (solo Trout shot) I'm guessing.

This changes everything.

Only if they package in Newcomb

It's hard to believe just 2 years ago we had the best record in baseball (i think?). At least we know things can turn around quickly and maybe it can turn back to good quicker than we think?

Sell anyone not named Trout for anyone willing to be buyers. Cole, tropeano, street, smith, Santiago, Skaggs when back, blow it up.

66

I'd take Matt Moore.

For everyone saying there's no way he'd ever hang it up. Do you think there is a limit somewhere of where he would hang it up? What if come he's hitting under .150 midseason? At season end?

Yeah, no thanks.

Eppler needs to have a firesale and get as many prospects as he can. Then we need to draft well the next few years. If all this happens then we might have a chance to be good in the last year before trouts contract is up.

Bryce Harper went 0-0 with 6 BB in 13 innings today. Has 24 walks and 25 k this season.

No thanks. We lost our #1 and possibly another guy who has already been hurt. We just need to sign someone and catch lightning in a bottle. Lincecum might work for the right price. This is discouraging but if they trade trout I go where he goes and abandon Artes Angels.

Let's go all 76ers on this!

My money is that we hear Skaggs needs another TJ. The first one didn't hold. Or Hector somehow needs it.

Is there a third we can find anywhere? I bet we get a deal if we can find 3 at once.

I had the wording slightly wrong but
