Just saw Rosenthal post something hinting that Cespedes wants 5 years $122 million with an opt out after 2 years. Nope.
I cannot think of enough reasonable explanations for why we shouldn't sign Cespedes. - Doesn't cost any picks or prospects - We don't have any...
I've been pounding the table for this as a legit option for both teams. The Cavs are closer to competing than we are, and they need better...
I've posted this before, I really think Cleveland needs to consider working with us on a trade involving Love and Howard. Mozgov and Love aren't a...
I'd rather see what White, Reed, or Preston Tucker can do at DH than to actively go out and sign/trade for one. I don't think Cespedes will...
Haha. Missed that. Watching the Rockets and posting about the Astros probably isn't a good idea. Really watching the Rockets at all is a bad idea.
Still can't believe all the justifications I'm hearing. DESPITE Rasmus signing the QO, the Astros are still near the bottom of he league in...
Disagree. You're YEARS from having to pay anyone. Assuming you can sign Cespedes to a 4 year contract, your risk is pretty low.
If you go this route, I think you've got to clear Gattis. Rasmus becomes your regular DH and part-time OF. Marisnick is the other bench...
I could definitely see the Astros making a big splash and signing Cespedes. He doesn't cost you prospects or picks....so the only "cost" is his...
Why would a 1 year $15 million contract "discourage" the Astros from doing anything?? That seems ridiculous.
I could get behind that, and it seems like a fair trade for both sides. For the Rockets, it's kind of a "win now, win later" type move. Snell...
I'd absolutely do that deal if it was out there. Good chance the Clips pick is around #20 next year.
Here's the positives for the Cavs.... 1) Thornton costs 20% of what Smith does and provides the exact same skills. 2) upgrade the mobility...
the following makes a lot of sense for both teams.... Dwight, Ariza, Thorton for Love, Mozgov and Smith
Agree with this. I like Crowder, but DMo and Capela both have higher ceilings. Capela needs more time. He's already #14 in the league in...
That's tricky. Boston wouldn't just do a Crowder for Ariza swap, so you'd have to "sweeten" the pot. The problem is that Boston is the king of...
If I were them, I'd be making a hard run at Boogie, but I don't think Sacramento will trade him with them being so close to the playoffs....
If we're going to replace Ariza, the guy I want is JAE CROWDER. Second highest defensive plus/minus SF, shoots 35% from 3, can finish at the rim,...
I really like a future front court of Capela, Harrell, and DMo. Tons of potential with all of these guys. If rebuilding is the route we take,...
