  1. well to be fair, it's mostly putt. Putt, is this HR girl real or is it just someone trolling you on twitter?
  2. take it easy, don't do anything crazy
  3. If it comes down to Astros vs Yankees for Wheeler, should the Astros up their offer for the additional benefit of blocking the yankees/costing them more?
  4. Take it easy, Putt. Why don't you sit this next one out, stop talking for a while.
  5. that supposed tweet wasn't even dated from today (date on the picture of the tweet was 7/30). hard to imagine they were keeping a minor league prospect that far in the loop and yet nothing got out about it for more than a day. edit: yeah, just had a look at Tucker's twitter account and the last time he tweeted anything himself was October of 2018. Only 8 retweets since then. Not exactly a hardcore twitter user. Also "what's good NY" sounds pretty different from all of his other tweets.
  6. so we have 3 people saying they heard it from a friend who was in 31 flavors, but nobody who heard it themselves, and still nothing on Twitter at all about it.
  7. Oakland adding Tanner Roark from the Reds. Still nothing on MLB network or twitter about Wheeler.
  8. yeah, not seeing anything about this anywhere. What's the source for this?
  9. Looks like the Giants are making a trade with the Brewers, getting a shortstop prospect. not sure what the Giants are sending out, so it's not clear what this means in terms of Bumgarner's status. Something to keep an eye on, I guess. edit: not for Bumgarner or Will Smith edit2: for Drew Pomeranz, apparently. So still not sure what it means for buyer/seller status of the Giants.
  10. 2 HBP in a 3 batter span. How is Hurdle still in the game? At least he removed the pitcher, but they certainly should not have the benefit of the doubt- why wasn't there a warning in place at the start of the game? Seems like they should have ejected the pirates pitcher on the first HBP rather than letting him hit another batter a few pitches later, then letting Hurdle take him out instead of ejecting him. but to get this back on track here, would we be satisfied with no moves, if none of the other contenders make any more moves either? Have to admit I have visions of Bumgarner getting blown up by the Dodgers in the series, he's not on a good recent stretch against them.
  11. Rumors of the Yankees going after our old buddy Ken Giles, him coming into a late/close game between the Astros and Yankees in the playoffs would be interesting. yeah, I'd imagine they were wanting something crazy for what are basically the two faces of their franchise. Would have been hard to get value from that. And yeah it's seeming like it's gonna be Wheeler, Ray or nothing at this point. Twitter saying that the Yankees were in talks with the D-backs about Ray but that those talks are now dead.
  12. Haha, pirates just plunked another Cincinnati hitter.
  13. Greinke made his start, currently pitching in the bottom of the second. Gotta think that if there were serious discussions going on, he’d be out of the game.
  14. Well I guess I’m happy for Kemp, going to a potential playoff team over in the NL where I don’t have to root against him. Wonder if this means lower likelihood of Wheeler since the Mets supposedly wanted players who could help at the major league level right away.
  15. Grienke is supposed to start the d-backs game against the Yankees in less than an hour.
  16. What you have to remember is that nobody on here is paying and everyone loves prospects.
  17. I think the straight shooting Cole has done was to say “I’m not going to discuss it, you’re welcome to talk to my agent, Scott Boras, about it any time you want.” which effectively means he’s probably not re-signing with the Astros, so I’m also on board with the Greinke idea. Not as enthused about the Bumgarner possibility, although for a very cheap price I’d say it would be worth taking a shot.
  18. Phone signal? Dude better be set up in the “it’s happening” bunker.
  19. Isn’t he under club control for 2 more years?
  20. I would love this- was wondering why he wasn’t coming up more in rumors, esp since there were rumblings for a while that the d-backs would be willing to send cash to offset that contract. Maybe the fact that there are 15 teams on his no-trade list has something to do with it. Just so happens that the Astros are not one of the 15 though...
  21. The jog to first would probably finish him off
  22. Moose out front shoulda told ya, but seems like somebody ate him
  23. Guys, I wish everyone would stop shitting on Tyler White so much, maybe everyone could try to be the bigger man here.
