Stephen Drew? Good god.

 

[Dominican Power]

The Yanks farm system by itself isn't good enough to land Price, but they could offer Gardner who is signed to a team friendly deal and Betances who is cost controlled for five more seasons after this one. Yanks could offer both of them along with Severino and Sanchez and that offer gets you Price imo. Unless Price gets traded to a big market like the Tigers or Dodgers, who could give him a market value extension now, I think he becomes a free agent after 2015 and the Yanks couild sign him outright.

Why would The Yanks trade all of that for just Price? Makes no sense.

 

[BFIB]

Cherington giving zero fucks.

 

[Doogdogg]

is jeter coming to Boston?

 

[Sanjuro]

Jeter is coming to Boston. It's happening!

 

[Chuck]

Tigers got Price

 

[eznark]

Why even take Kelly Johnson? Just give them Drew.

 

[darkside31337]

Guys its Kelly Johnson. Not Jetah.

 

[Doogdogg]

Tigers gotta response to the A's.

 

[darkside31337]

Price nooooooooooo

I was just pointing out that the yanks have enough to get Price, not that they should offer that.

Drew can't be worse than Roberts... Right?!

 

[Leg-End]

Drew? Euuuugh.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Price nooooooooooo

Wonder what your Rays got. Might be a third team involved. Maybe the great Robbie Ross!!

 

[jakncoke]

Us unwilling to move out to 6-7 guys has kept us out of a blockbuster, but why the hell cant we get any kind of help ffs.

I read Pirates are the third team. Not confirmed tho

 

[bonesmccoy]

Thank you, Detroit.

 

[darkside31337]

I wonder if the Tigers move Verlander to the pen. They probably should but you'd have to think its Smyly getting bumped out (or maybe hes in the deal)

 

[BFIB]

Rumors are: Price to Detroit. Austin Jackson/Smyly to Seattle. Tampa Bay getting a boat load of prospects including "three or four top pieces" from both Detroit and Seattle.

Ruben Amaro Jr. keeping all of his chips, because while it's not 2009 now, you never know what year it's going to be tomorrow

Ha, nevermind. Local reporter just clarified here in St. Louis. Thought the Cards were also involved.

Trolling all over the place on the newswire today.

EDIT: or not.

Please don't include Walker...

 

[Purple Cheeto]

Please don't include Walker...

See my edit above, the Mariners are getting Jackson for Nick Franklin. I like that for Seattle.

 

[Singularity42]

So Max walks and the tigers resign price??

Damn that rotation is crazy

Interested to see what they gave up for Price

Jackson is a good CF too bad he can't hit for shit. Sad to see Smyly go that kid has a future

 

[Macattk15]

Don't know whether to be pumped or pissed yet. I'm hearing Nick Franklin is on his way to TB though.

If it's just Nick Franklin for A Jax? I'm fucking pumped.

lold

 

[ActStriker]

lmao, they just pulled Austin Jackson out of the game

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Jackson must be sad.

 

[Purple Cheeto]

Nick Franklin had no real spot with Seattle.

Seattle needed a legit CFer, Austin Jackson fits the bill.

It's a pretty good deal for Seattle, they get Jackson for this year and next.

 

[BFIB]

Man guys, I need a drink.

Goddamn, I fucking love baseball.

Yup. Totally cool with that.

 

[darkside31337]

Sweet. Rays got Smyly. IDK about Franklin but whatever.

 

[Singularity42]

That's a good deal for Detroit. Huge hole in CF though

 

[Macattk15]

Sweet. Rays got Smyly. IDK about Franklin but whatever.

I'm going to be sad when he is a perennial all-star in 4-5 years, but pumped about having a legit CF'er.

 

[distantmantra]

We send Franklin to TB, TB sends Price to DET, DET sends us Jackson.

TB kinda got screwed...

 

[Leg-End]

Stephen Drew? Thats it? Might as well have been sellers, awful.

Theres going to be more to this deal.

Pirates big move at the deadline

 

[BFIB]

Looks like Walker, Franklin and Smyly to TB.

 

[Chuck]

Wait I just missed that. Which player tweeted ugh?

lol

 

[Purple Cheeto]

Taijuan Walker, he straight trolled MLB Network.

 

[MattDoza]

+Walker? Fuck this trade.

 

[Chuck]

Taijuan Walker, he straight trolled MLB Network.

That's fantastic. lol

 

[Dominican Power]

Heyman said Mariners traded Franklin for Austin Jackson. That's it. That's a good trade for Seattle, imo.

How many holes do you have though?

Because there are numerous holes in the Yankee bucket. I would say "hey, August trades!" but I'm not holding my breathe with Cashman.

 

[Dominican Power]

Yankees got Prado. I guess he'll play RF.

We needed both SP and Relief. Also someone to help drive in runs. We're like 5th in OBP and 20th in runs. As it stands we're pretty much punting the year in my eyes. Maybe we stay afloat long enough to get a WC position but I dont see this team as something that can move past say what we did last year. Another lost year of McCutchen

 

[Leg-End]

I'm reserving judgement on the Prado deal until I see what they gave up, if its not much I don't hate it.

Yankees upgraded at 3B, got Drew who's better defensively than Roberts and a better bat than Ryan. Now Prado to play RF.
