I mean ... it would take me approximately 0.03 seconds to say yes to that deal

I like Finnegan. I don't see any upside of him being a starter with his mechanics. They are the exact opposite of smooth. Hell, he reminds me a left-handed Aaron Crow.

Not often people tell Duncan he is full of shit. Way to kick off the new thread :facepalm:

If they're trying to compete for 2016, they're not going to get a pitcher from the Astros or the Blue Jays who is more MLB-ready for 2016 unless one of those teams does a ridiculous overpay (Aaron Sanchez or Daniel Norris for Blue Jays, Lance McCullers or Velasquez for the Astros).

They're def going to compete next year looking at their roster. No reason they can't win 85 games or so and maybe snag a WC spot. Is Jocketty still there? If so doesn't even do re-builds. A 5-starter in Duffy for a couple months of Cueto makes way more sense for 2016 than prospects. Plus their pen is awful outside Chapman so Finnegan already is an upgrade

I think within the next week. He's scheduled to make a start for NWA tonight.

Aw, crap. I wish I would have known that sooner since they're playing in Springfield.

FWIW, Triple A All-Star game is on tonight at 7 CST on MLB Network.

C3HIEF3S 07-15-2015 06:23 PM

James Shields and Jeremy Guthrie are both present at the ESPY's

There isn't a single metric in the world that would not make that the worlds worst overpay if we gave up Mondesi, Manaea, Zimmer and someone like Almonte. Give me a break.

You get Cueto for 15 starts max, and Bruce (whom I've always liked) for 1 year + and option year. So potentially 2 years, 25.5M.

GTFO. Dave Cameron would probably back track on that statement if challenged. At least I hope he would.

Yep, he clearly did not think it through before responding.

Then again, what the hell does he know. He's just a talking head that covers it on the national level. He's not got contacts entrenched in either organization. Besides, I would bet he doesn't even know every guy on either team's roster - let alone versed on who and how good each organization's farm system is.

RMJR. + our next top 3 guys is seriously laughable.

Sometimes I swear it seems like sportswriters just lurk the message boards to regurgitate a condensed version for their article.

This literally reads like the Repository #2.

ESPY's or Triple A All-Star game? Hmmmm

What am I supposed to do tonight with no baseball?
One can only masterbate so many times before it starts getting raw.
