Sonny Gray has food poisoning, won't pitch today.

future GM greinke wasn't a fan of the shelby miller trade

The Diamondbacks weakened their depth, by a little or by a lot, with the Miller trade. Greinke was said by friends to be frustrated and disappointed at how much talent the Diamondbacks lost in getting Miller. Greinke, asked whether he liked the trade, deflected the question without a yes or no.

ESPN if I have to see this same damn Flo Rida "My House" montage for every opening day game I will commit suicide.

 

[BumRush]

Frozen, you always know a ton about international players:

Is the 27 year old Cuban MI Jose Fernandez someone the Mets should go after? I'm still not convinced Cabrera is the answer...Maybe having Yo' would help...

Jesus at this quote by him:

“It’s obviously the No. 1 thing,” Greinke told Jon Heyman of CBSSports.com. “I could play for the worst team if they paid the most. … If the last-place team offers $200 million and the first-place team offers $10, I’m going to go for the $200-million no matter what team it was.”

I dont think I have ever seen a player in any sport be so open about only caring about money.

I'm always weary of older Cuban infielders and inflated numbers.

At this point I'd do what we've been doing, target middle range and fringe top-10 Dominican players and supplement with older LA players to feel out the INTL market.

We're not players in Asia so we need to keep our INTL spending in check.

Haven't seen a lot from him other than a few cuts, he's got a decent bat, but his defense is really suspect (he's probably a third basemen). I'd just sit on what we have and hope we can make it work.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

This is what I deserve for actually thinking the Brewers could win.

 

[jbug617]

Sonny Gray scratched from tonight due to food poisoning. Rich Hill is getting the start.

Well... why shouldn't he? The teams he pitches for are going to run him into the ground and destroy his arm, why shouldn't he max out his earnings while he can? He'd be an idiot not to do so.

Six of their Top 10 prospects are middle infielders.

What do you think?

Fernandez is likely MLB ready, the closest to the bigs right now is Cheech and he needs at least another year plus in the minors.

Cool! After watching Wright man 3rd last night, our next 3B needs to be above average field/arm...

He is free to use what ever he wants to pick a place to play, it is just that most people at least try and make it seem like the decision is about more then just more. I was just surprised by his candor.

 

[Corran Horn]

Quick everyone buy mlb 15 the show. Probably 10$!

 

[Macattk15]

Cano gonna have a year.

Ding ding dinger.

Rich Hill opening day starter. Thanks DD, you fuck.

Yeah, there's no way the can justify Fernandez when 3rd base is huge unknown. .

Rosario is ranked above Cheech and there's also Dilson.

After that you have Carpio, Reynolds and Ramos.

van slyke lit a fire under canos ass

I have more respect for Grienke than most other players because of his candor. He's bluntly honest about the shit that bugs him and that's super refreshing in a game that's become increasingly afraid for people to step out of line.

 

[Parch]

Watch Cano have a really nice comeback year. He's still got it.

 

[Mortemis]

Cano gonna have a year.

Ding ding dinger.

Him hopefully starting strong is gonna be an amazing season

 

[Frozenprince]

Reynolds is a super UTL infielder, Carpio and Ramos are non-starters, Rivera is another UTL guy, Rosario is 3 years away, Dilson is a pure 2B who can spot at short a game or two but not sit there.

Fernandez would immediately help the team, is the point I think he was trying to make. We have a glut of MIF in the minors but none of them are immediate assets at short.

 

[Purple Cheeto]

Watch Cano have a really nice comeback year. He's still got it.

He hit pretty well second half last year after he got relatively healthy.

 

[Frozenprince]

Wilmer is likely going to be our starting 3B before long if the Captain's body continues to give out.

Can he play 3rd adequately?

 

[Frozenprince]

He's a natural third basemen, it's his true position.

With Collins you know Campbell will start @ 3rd.

Sonny Gray has food poisoning, won't pitch today.

IT BEGINS.

Hope he stayed at home today. The Coliseum can't handle the poops.

I remember when George Brett had food poisoning.

This just never gets old.

 

[BumRush]

Oh! I'd love to see him get a few reps there. I really can't believe how weak Wright looks.

 

[jman2050]

Well that didn't take long for Harper

 

[NameGenerated]

MVP

 

[Frozenprince]

Holy hell is Prince fat, I know he's always been fat but it's so much worse this year.

 

[BumRush]

Harper's probably going to end up as one of the top 5 best baseball players of all time if he stays healthy. Jesus Christ...

 

[Sanjuro]

IT BEGINS.

Rich looked absolutely amazing late last season. Hoping he keeps it up.

I love me some Matt Duffman.

Until the Angels sign him.

The crazy part is that this can be true and it can also be true that he wasn't even the best player of his generation.

The era of Trout and Harper is going to be a good one.

 

[Frozenprince]

Mike Trout and Bryce Harper are under 24 years old.

God dammit.

I'm amazed that it was Dan from Giant Bomb who leaked that video lol.

 

[Loco4Coco]

Murphy in a Nats uniform looks weird.

 

[Frozenprince]

Julio Teheran is a shell of what he was 2 years ago.

Can't locate.

 

[CosmicQueso]

Holy crap Ryan Howard. How bad can one player be?

Wait wut

It's nuts.

I'm a Mets fan and I love Harper (for what he brings to baseball).

Lol that's my reaction too. On UPF a few weeks ago he talked about it. Guess he was working at the local tv station with that video archived and thought it would be funny to put on YouTube.

Seager goes yard!

 

[Loco4Coco]

How many years left on that Werth contract?

God bless the Nats for being so incompetent or we'd probably never win the NL East.
