MLB 2015 Regular Season |OT2| NES Baseball, Best Baseball

It doesn't even matter if Albies jumped him on the prospect list, he's still the second prospect at the worst and a potential great lead-off hitter for years to come.

And before someone says anything about potential, that's literally all Olivera is, potential, and he's eight years older with elbow problems. Peraza for Olivera straight up is too much, but to also give up Alex Wood, a proven 25 year old pitcher, for Zach Bird, the 15th prospect in the Dodgers farm system, and a draft pick is absurd.

Jerad Eickhoff and C Jorge Alfaro are in deal from Texas
 
I would like to know what the Astros were going to give up for Hamels. If the rumors were true.

I guess they knew they were out so their focusing on getting pitching from the Padres.
 
i was kinda hoping neither Nick nor Brinson were in the deal, but I guess that's just wishful thinking. One of them had to go. At least it wasn't Mazara.

Yeah Nick kinda seemed like a sell high trade candidate because he's left handed, not a true CF and blocked. His hitting skills are awesome and he took a huge stride forward this season. I'm al little bummed to see him go.
 
So far it looks like the Rangers are giving up Williams, Eickhoff and Alfaro for Hamels. It's being reported that there are more players involved on both teams in the deal.

Williams, Eickhoff and Alfaro are in. Told Phillies getting more and ... so are Rangers.

Phils also sending some cash money
 
Amaro posturing Hamels with Texas. Probably trying to get this whole Dodgers angle sorted to get the best deal.
 
Piscotty vs. Upton/Cespedes?

I'd say play Piscotty.

Piscotty. Upton and Cespedes are better, but will cost a lot. Prices for players just shot way up for the Cardinals

What's the most frustrating about these past two games is that if they're playing in GABP the Cardinals likely sweep - lot of hard hit fly balls that die at the warning track at Busch that would be HRs there
 
Matt Harrison involved in the deal

Bob Nightengale @BNightengale: The Houston #Astros had put together a strong package #Phillies Cole Hamels, but he exercised his no-trade rights, and ends up w #Rangers.

FInal deal and its a doozy: Matt Harrison, Alec Asher, Jerad Eickhoff, Nick Williams, Jorge Alfaro & Jake Thompson for Hamels+Diekman+Cash.

Kinda sad about Thompson too. Was an old teammate of mine back in the day and wanted to see him play for Texas.
