Garcia being traded to Twins

[Enscheff]

1 goat and cow just isn't cutting it this year

LOL a typical double wide dweller can not afford a cow...or a goat for that matter.

You guys use old broken down lawnmowers to hack at the weeds growing around the cinder blocks holding up your hovel. That's why you asked for one haha.

I know right? Pretty awesome. I'm a proud papa for starting this thread

[Knucksie]

No matter what they just have to express their feelings online.

Fitting, given that it's John Hart's birthday.

I don't really care when the deal happens, but he can't start tonight under any circumstance if we were this close. Can't risk an injury, but also can't risk him likely getting blown up by the Dodgers.

Agreed. No possible higher trade return can be worth the downside risk of the Dodgers literally killing him.

I guess it's just the scratchers addiction in me, but I'd roll the dice and start him tonight. We most likely aren't getting anyone worth a crap at the moment, but a good start tonight could get us a decent prospect

LOL so one start is going to wildly swing his trade value?

The only direction his trade value can go in a single start is down if he gets hurt. It isn't going up.

I think 2 good starts in a row vs playoff teams could land us multiple top 100s. Ok, not that, but yeah, I think it would improve his stock

Teams do funny things at the deadline though. Never know

Yeah, you're probably right. Teams will probably see Garcia pitch 2 good games in a row, something he has already done several times in his career, and suddenly think he is a better option moving forward.

They will ignore all previous data, weigh those 2 starts more heavily in their evaluations than all other innings he has ever pitched, and increase their trade offers.

Bring on Los Dodgers!!

Now you're learning.

[bravesfanMatt]

I think I-Me will go 7 no-hit innings before giving up a bloop single and then a double to break up the shut out. Braves win 7-2..

"No more Bored" bet anyone..

[TheBravos]

Can anyone remember a trade at this level dragging out this long??

[bravesfanMatt]

Can anyone remember a trade at this level??

FTFY

[jpx7]

It's like selling a broken down old lawn mower for $20, then making the guy wait a day in case your neighbor wants to give you $21.

That's just good business, bro—you've gotta make these transactions count when you have limited resources. And we've already established the cow and the goat are crucial weekend entertainment.

Mentioned during the XM update that the deal appears to have fallen through.

And if a good outing helped getting a better prospect, what are the odds of that happening? Most likely 4 or five innings of trash

[Julio3000]

****, I'd already gotten the BlankenHorny for Kyle! merch ready to go.
