Guessing we were offering guys like Davidson, Grissom, Elder, Dean, etc.

Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...
Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?
I’m ready to wave the white flag. Let’s see some lists of Dodgers, Padres, Giants prospects that we could expect for Morton.

6.3% chance to win the division and a 7.3% to make the playoffs overall.
So NOT the year to buy. Sell and bring up some of the young guys. We would not even be any worse.
There may be nothing really to sell. Morton snd FF may not allow it
I am tired of AA! Last year we had a good team with a big chance and he waste that opportunity. I will like to make a trade but for a player to help us next year too.
AA is a conservative GM now. I didn't expect the Toronto guy..but Damn. Bring back Coppy. At least he gave incentives out..Lmao. Scared money don't make money...
Also, don't buy the idea that AA sits on his hands. He attempted to trade for Clevinger last deadline and got outbid. We were in on Realmuto a couple years ago but the Marlins reportedly were demanding Ozzie in return. We reportedly were in on Gallo yesterday. The Yankees paid a hefty price for his services.
I'd rather AA not overpay for players, particularly players who are controlled for 2 years or less. And it seems missing out on Clevinger was a blessing in disguise.

I sure would like to make a run at Buxton.
Yes he’s mr glass but when healthy has shown to be a top 20 player the last few seasons.
I believe he would be a gamble worth taking for next season.
We have a very very good CF on board if AA can only fix the corner OFers with viable options. And Im not referring to Waters or Pache.
For the life of me I can't understand the interest in Buxton. Yes, he's a very good player when he's on the field - the problem is that's next to never. Since being promoted in 2015, he's played 140 games ONCE. He averages 231 PAs per season and just turned down $10,000,000 per year - that's $6,195 per PA. Again, he's good, but *amn he'd have to produce a TON to come remotely close to earning that money, and there's no reason to expect him to suddenly stay healthier as his body gets older and more brittle. He supposedly wanted $80 million from the Twins to sign through his age 35 season and people actually worry about signing Freeman through age 36 when he has averaged more games played per year than the most Buxton has ever played??? Wow. We're talking about a guy that's played more than 92 games ONCE.
I remember the *itching about the fact that Chipper (a Hall Of Famer BTW) wasn't "earning" his money at the end, and all the whining about how bad Ender's extension turned out to be when he went south. I'll happily pass on Buxton TYVM.

I hope we sell…we need to sell. I swear though, if we don’t sell and/or make crap moves that do not move the needle imma lose it. Yet…I know in my heart this will happen. Just commit to something AA!!

The bullpen market is going to get crazy over the next 31 hours. Brewers, Giants, Braves, Mets, Blue Jays, Rays and White Sox among the teams still looking for relief help. Kimbrel, Rodriguez, Kennedy, Tepera, Hudson, Hand, Soria, Robles, Shaw, Fry, Cisnero among those available.
