    Sounds like Allen Craig may go to the Mariners. They will be out soon

    If he's cheap in terms of a trade, that's a great pickup for them. If he gets back to where he was with the Cards, or anywhere close to it, then I think it's perfect.

    I'm going to guess that the O's trade for Seth Smith from the Padres once the Kemp and Myers trades are finalized. That will effectively remove all suitors for JUp other than SF and maybe Tex.

    This is starting to remind me a lot of the last time Justin was traded.

    Hart needs to continue to show patience here. If you don't trade him then fine. There's still the trade deadline when teams in contention become desperate. In my best Hart voice... look, a top round pick for Upton isn't the worst thing in the world. Plus who the hell knows? Maybe we actually compete this season. We have a good rotation, a promising bullpen and a good top 5 in the batting order.
    thank you weso1!

    Joe Panik is garbage. Hart is not inspiring any confidence in me,

    AL Source: Braves appear to be down the road on a deal sending Justin Upton to an AL West club for a package headlined by young pitching.

    From the A's beat reporter for MLB.com:

    Jane Lee @JaneMLB · 4h 4 hours ago
    The A's now appear ready to field pitchers at all positions next year. Or make more trades.

    Jane Lee @JaneMLB · 4h 4 hours ago
    Can't imagine the A's will keep all this pitching. Have to think they're prepping for a bigger move, like an Upton or Tulowitzki.

    This is just a gut feeling and nothing more, but I think a deal is coming with either Texas or Oakland, with the A's perhaps the more likely of the two. I don't see Seattle as a match, especially since they seem hesitant to deal Walker and Saunders has already been dealt.

    It is sounding more like Oakland because Texas has reportedly only shown interest in Upton to flip him (three-team trade) and prefer Gattis. Plus Oakland must be planning to move some of all their pitching. If it is Oakland I'd be interested in a package headlined by Jarrod Parker, I know he is coming off Tommy John but he should be ready early on based on when he started throwing.

    Jarrod Parker makes so much sense and it makes no sense. The right guy on the wrong team.

    Remind me why Oakland would be interested? Is Billy a drunk playing fantasy football?

    The way Billy is trading this off-season nothing would surprise me, lol.

    It's a little hard knowing what exactly Beane has going on in his mind.

    I think Wren is playing the Rangers and Mariners against each other. If Seattle adds Justin they can start printing NLDS tickets. Maybe they add more just to keep him from going to the other team. I think it's going to be the Rangers.

    I am surprised they gave Wren the GM job back after dragging his name through the mud so much. When did this happen? :)

    JK man, lol.

    According to Peter Gammons, Wren is still the boss and running the day to day operation, even from behind bars.
