    If Boyd starts getting the results to match the potential they may think he has, he’ll be worth far more than just Jones and Suarez. Is it possible that Avila could view Jones and Suarez in higher regard than most others do and be willing to give Boyd for them? Yea, I guess. But one can’t assume that.
  2. Angels_Fan
    Because they can’t get fair value for him if they think Boyd is truly better than he has shown. Unless, of course, a team overpays based on perceived potential alone.
  3. Angels_Fan
    Eh, that seems more like wishful thinking than anything else. He’s cheap, under club control for 3 years, and may have more potential than he has shown. There’s just no incentive to move him unless a team overpays drastically.
  4. Angels_Fan
    They have no reason to trade Boyd unless a team overpays. Jones + Suarez won’t cut it.

    Gray is only projected to earn $5.6 million next season and is under club control for two years. Acquiring Gray could give the Angels a lot of flexibility to keep improving the roster. Marsh is pretty redundant with Trout, Adell and Upton locked up in the OF for many years. And it isn’t that hard to get an OF once Upton is gone.

    Well, you said it. The Angels shouldn’t overpay (Marsh +) and should look to trade Jones and Suarez (which means the Tigers would be selling low, if Boyd’s potential is better than he has shown). The chances of a deal being reached is probably close to zero. The Tigers would be wise to hold on to him and hope that he reaches his potential. They would likely get way more in return then.
  7. Angels_Fan
    Maybe not, but that doesn’t take away the fact that he put up good numbers.
  8. Angels_Fan
    He’s a good pitcher. He also would’ve by far been the Angels best starter last season.
  9. Angels_Fan
    So one should just blindly hope that he’ll stop giving up lots of HRs and put it all together? Archer is another guy who has a lot of potential but seemed to underperform these last few years for various reasons.
  10. Angels_Fan
    Can’t really compare Gray with Boyd. Gray actually has the results (while pitching in a brutal environment like Coors half the time).
  11. Angels_Fan
    Either the Tigers would be selling low (based on assumed potential) or the Angels would be overpaying. Boyd hasn’t done anything to warrant giving up the Angels best prospects.
  12. Angels_Fan
    Including someone like Marsh for Gray would be worth it, though (imo).

    Jeff Fletcher said that he heard the Angels have no interest in Teheran, thankfully.
  14. Angels_Fan
    Some team will be desperate and crazy enough to give him 4/80. Hopefully that team isn’t the Angels. Just sign Keuchel and make a trade for someone like Gray and be done with it, Eppler.
  15. Angels_Fan
    He may be the kind of player to get his contract then mail it in. He finally had his first healthy season in 5 years during a contract year.
  16. Angels_Fan
    Great news. It seems like Eppler is aiming higher than that.
  17. Angels_Fan
    If Ryu gets injured and/or misses significant time (high probability, based on the last 5 years), who replaces him? Because he’s pitched 127+ innings just once since 2015.
  18. Angels_Fan
    4/80 (at minimum) for a pitcher who has pitched more than 127 innings in a season just once since 2015? Hell no.
  19. Angels_Fan
    Keuchel and Jon Gray.
  20. Angels_Fan
    Teheran’s results look like smoke and mirrors. He had a 5-6+ ERA in 3 months last season. The month where he had a 0.98 ERA, he allowed 15 walks to 19 strikeouts in 27 innings with a high fly ball % He just seems like the kind of pitcher who will have it all catch up to him eventually. And this isn’t the same Teheran from 2013-2016 regardless.
  21. Angels_Fan
    The Angels need good pitchers and depth. Quality over quantity.
  22. Angels_Fan
    No thanks. Teheran isn’t the answer. And Ryu can’t be relied on to stay healthy.
  23. Angels_Fan
    Gray pitched 6.2 innings or more 9 times last season (Ray did it twice) and averaged almost exactly 6 innings per start if you remove that one game that he didn’t start and got just one out. I hope he’s Eppler’s #1 trade target.
  24. Angels_Fan
    I would hope Eppler doesn’t even trade for him. He’s not the answer.
  25. Angels_Fan
    He’d no doubt be a huge upgrade over last year. Just kinda hope that they set their sights higher than that. And actually, it was less than 5.1 IP per start after checking. And he only pitched 7 innings or more once last season. Would prefer someone who can pitch deeper in games. Bullpen fatigue is real.
