The Mets games at Coors are fun as hell. Bombs everywhere.

 

[gamz]

Addy bomb! 3-0 Cubs.


How about this rumor. Trout to the Cubs.


Yeah, right! LOL

the consensus is that there is no consensus

KB goes dong! 5-0 Cubs.

We're a HR hitting team.

We finna mash.

 

[gamz]

8-0 Cubs

Grandpa Ross with a 3 run shot.

 

[zulux21]

Trade you the one and only Avisail Garcia....

to be fair he has been rather good recently

 

[wbsmcs]

We're a HR hitting team.

We finna mash.

A couple multi HR games for Granderson would be nice for my fantasy team.

This article, seriously, I'm tumescent....

Manny Machado's Stats put him in Discussion for Best Young Player

 

[Dominican Power]

Liriano fucking sucks.

 

[Westonian]

The Padres series was a disappointment, but the Cubs rebound by continuing to terrorize the Bucs.

Manny is a monster, it has been known.

Dude is Trout level.

 

[Beckx]

the old "lull your opponent by spotting them 8 runs" strategy

works every time

every time

...right?

sigh

 

[crpav]

Well I'll be...Abreu then kidding but HE BETTER START HITTING!

 

[zulux21]

Well I'll be...Abreu then kidding but HE BETTER START HITTING!

abreu is slumping a little bit again but over the last 15 has also been pretty good

in other thoughts I knew stephen stratsburg had opt out clauses in his contract I didn't realize that his last year of his contract could be worth 45mil

 

[Dominican Power]

Trout/Harper/Machado/Arenado are the best players in baseball

Shit I gotta agree with this list. Would Kershaw be five?

 

[Malo]

Of course. Kershaw is already at 3 fWAR while no other pitcher is even at 2.

You got an answer for everything.

And holy that's a lot of money.

agreed man, just asked to see if anyone had perhaps a different guy there.

 

[Dominican Power]

I was thinking Rizzo. Kershaw did come to mind but he only plays once every 5 days.

 

[Line_HTX]

Oh my God, Jose Reyes...

Just fucking dumb.

 

[Chris R]

Looking at the division winners projects on the first page of this thread right about now is good for a laugh. NL nailed to the T, AL 99% wrong lol

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Judging by the stats Dexter Fowler this year too.

 

[Dominican Power]

Dexter Fowler is no where their level. Stop trolling.

 

[Joe]

Gary Sanchez starting at dh tonight

 

[BaltimoreLarry]

Manny is a monster, it has been known.

Dude is Trout level.

People who know baseball know. I'm surrounded by Giants fans who put Crawford and Posey above Manny. Rational discussion is impossible.

EVEN YEAR!

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Dexter Fowler is no where their level. Stop trolling.

Of course not, but he's already at 2.4 WAR I believe which is amazing.

 

[Tragicomedy]

Tonight we discover if the Royals can beat the fearsome Braves.

 

[Windu]

the braves are going to hit 5 HRs tonight.












































and still lose.

 

[CygnusXS]

Question: if the Braves could get a top prospect or two back from the Rockies, would it be worth it to acquire Jose Reyes? I'd only be for it as long as Reyes is cut immediately and never takes the field for the Braves.

 

[AbortedWalrusFetus]

So excited to see Tommy Joseph bat next inning. Also, Herrara continues to blow my mind.

In this scenario are the braves just sending cash? Not sure why the Rockies would do that.

This is the REAL comeback story.

 

[AbortedWalrusFetus]

This is the REAL comeback story.

No joke, but we have to see if he can deal with the bigs.

 

[Dominican Power]

Severino sucks.

 

[CygnusXS]

Yeah, they'd be taking on the entire outlay of the contract. I'm imagining a similar structure to the Touki Toussaint, Bronson Arroyo, Phil Gosselin trade.

 

[BigAT]

Severino sucks.

Didn't have much hope coming into this one seeing it was Severino (0-5) v. Sale (7-0).

 

[Malo]

Might be time to demote Severino...

 

[Frozenprince]

Dude needs some retooling in AAA.

He wasn't ready to begin with.

 

[BumRush]

The only problem I see with it is that the Rockies are competitive. I don't see them trading him for anything less than a piece that can help them now.

His era when he came up last year fooled a lot of people including myself. His peripherals weren't great.

Reyes isn't playing tho. Even when he comes back.

 

[BumRush]

That doesn't mean another team wouldn't offer more than just cash.

 

[Sanjuro]

Jackie Bradley Godr.

 

[AbortedWalrusFetus]

Ha! I saw my wife's boss sitting behind the batter talking to the dude in the red tie. I am not certain but the dude might be John Middleton.

Interestingly my wife was talking with Leigh Middleton yesterday at a fundraiser.

 

[BigAT]

Sanchez never saw a pitch like that in AAA.

 

[blackaroni]

Astros...

 

[CygnusXS]

That doesn't mean another team wouldn't offer more than just cash.

My perspective right now is just figuring out if it would even make sense from the Braves' side, and which prospects would make it worth it. I don't feel like the Rockies tend to be very predictable in these matters.
