  1. Priceless. So it could never happen. He won't be traded in his prime. He will get some nice offers when his contract is up though.
  2. Shouldn't we be more worried about netting below the upper levels? Seems people die every year falling over railings.
  3. Talks shall be had Justin Upton will be ours by tomorrow at this time.
  4. Talked with someone today about this and sources describe Street as "Crushed".
  5. The market is out of control. The players are simply being paid at their current market value. The whole scale is just higher than it has ever been.
  6. I came in here to make a joke about it being Joe Blanton. So here it is.
  7. The two big cards from my childhood: McGwire USA Rookie Card Ken Griffey Jr. Upper Deck Rookie Card
  8. So all this talk about her being able to take out Floyd and she is destroyed by a boxer. Here's the KO: http://gfycat.com/UltimateCloudyKillifish
  9. Whenever I think about our contract woes (Hamilton, Pujols etc...) I remember, at least we are not paying Bobby Bonilla until 2035!
  10. This video led me to watch about 20 more videos on YouTube. Some comments: -Dude has an absolute gun. Wow. -He has an incredibly quick release. -Freddie Freeman is pretty good defensively too. I am thinking Andrelton is going to be a fan favorite.
  11. I just read some thoughts on the Braves board and it's funny that both sides are outraged that they got the bad end of the deal. Early on in the thread many Braves fan said how'd they be pissed if they "only" got DeGrom or Harvey for Simmons...
  12. Welcome! I hope he doesn't make an error all season long or this board will implode.
  13. Hi, Billy Eppler here, posting under my online name. Don't worry about me giving up the farm for Simmons guys, I'm planning on landing these guys too: Jordan Zimmerman Jason Heyward Chris Davis Darren O'Day Howie Kendrick
  14. We still have Weaver, Wilson, Shoe, Santiago, Richards, Heaney, Tropeano, Skaggs, Nate Smith. Yes, a bunch of these names scare me, but here's 9 guys that could compete at the Major League level. It's not like we are going to be struggling to put a 5 man rotation out there. Yes we hurt our future a bit (possibly) but this tells me Eppler is aggressive and this team might go all in an open the checkbook. I'm sure there are also going to be a few young guys in the minors that take steps forward this year as well. I'm optimistic.
  15. For everyone saying we gave up too much, will you be saying the same if we land some other big names this offseason and fill most of our holes? How about if we go deep into the playoffs? It's a risky move but I'll take it over a stoneman type move anyday.
  16. Going from the highest payroll to the lowest should be an interesting transition ($314M to $62M).
  17. MVP voters are a blast from the past. They look at stats the same way we did in the 80s/early 90s: Average, Homers, RBIs
  18. Either Greinke or Puig won't be with the Dodgers next season. I think they'll deal Puig for pitching.
  19. So reading these forums it seems like the 2 guys we want most are Daniel Murphy and Yoenis Cespedes. What do these two have in common?
