Fairly certain that Carter is out of options. I guess they could option Tucker, but they seem to be relying on his bat more than they are relying...
I figured Straily is being pulled up to be the long reliever in case we need one, and Kazmir would start tonight. I wondered who would be the...
Not that I'm a fan of Valbuena or Carter, but I'll note that those two combined have 20% of the team's RBIs and HRs. They each have a higher OBP...
If they are in win-now mode, why is Carter playing at all? I think Luhnow is hoping that Carter catches lightning in a bottle like he did last...
Yep, Carter has had 1900 plate appearances, I think we all have a good idea of the player he is. Singleton has only had 400 plate appearances in...
Yep, still not clear whether the light will turn on with Singleton, but just hasn't yet. I'm hoping we don't deal him and then find out he's...
Interesting, Carter hits a timely dinger yesterday and riding pine today. Wasn't it Hinch who said if you hit a homer you're automatically...
So, buddy from Detroit calls me this morning. No idea if this has any factual accuracy, but he tells me that Tigers are making a run at Hamels and...
Not sure why he picked the 2013 payroll, when we're in 2015, unless he's just trying to be a hack.
Yes, but (to your last sentence), if we pick up a free agent in the offseason, we don't part ways with any prospects, particularly our valuable...
Agreed, unless we could get him on the cheap (very doubtful), I don't think he's worth trading decent prospects. We traded Roy Oswant to...
Hmm, team control is a great thing, but primarily for guys who are in their prime or about to hit their prime. Hamels turns 32 in a few months....
For next season? I'm thinking Luhnow won't feel the need to make a trade to upgrade at first base, as he'll see whether Reed or White can fill...
I meant make a run at Cespedes in the off-season, seeing that Rasmus in only under contract this year.
I'd like to see a run made at Cespedes to replace Rasmus.
Yep, expecting Santana to get called back up, will be interesting to see who is sent down (or traded).
Looks like Hoes was optioned to make room for Kazmir, is that right?
Nope, you're wrong.
Maybe you didn't go to any games in 2012. I went to a Cardinals game (may have been the last game of the year at Minute Maid) where the "paid"...
oh yeah, you're right, you know everything.
