Around Baseball Offseason Edition - Derek Jeter will retire at seasons end

[CrimsonCowboy]

Per Jerry Crasnick, the Cardinals are close to a deal with Jhonny Peralta

 

[Heyward]

He was seeking 56-75 million, so they must of gave him a big deal.

Good signing for them.

 

[Tapate50]

Simmons should never be too expensive .

1) Peralta deal is reportedly 4 years, $52 million+

2) Teams have inquired on Cubs pitcher Jeff Samardzija and the Blue Jays are putting together a package of young players to try to land him, a source tells Bruce Levine of ESPNChicago.com

The Cards make a defensive upgrade with Wong moving in at 2B and then sign a statue to play SS.

He is a PED-user though. Seems to be a key criteria for them.

Makes for a statue with better musculature.

Blue Jays looking for a starting pitcher.

I would trade them Minor, Wood, Avilan, and Uggla for Sanchez, Reyes, and cash.

Where would Reyes play and who is Sanchez?

 

[yeezus]

I'll take that for what it's worth coming from someone with a tagline comparing Tommy La Stella to Dustin Pedroia.

Ask anyone who knows anything about Taveres, that deal would never ever ever happen. Sorry.

The sig is a joke, pal.

At least they are getting someone back in return. More than we can say.

Reyes would play second. And Sanchez would be in our rotation in 2015.

Uh, no.

 

[Dalyn]

Uh, no.

Sanchez is going to be better than Wood and probably better than Minor. Avilan isn't going to make it through the year (under Fredi). And Uggla has no place on this team. If anything, the Blue Jays say no.

No.

Actually hell no.Ignoring the fact that we're trading our number 1 and what should be our 5, and all we're getting back is a future SP prospect and an absolute headcase. Unless they're giving us 80 million dollars, there's no way in hell you make that trade.

Counting Uggla's contract, the cash would be close. I was thinking that deal might net Reyes at about 10/year.

 

[skidlee]

its a bad trade no matter how you look at it.

I would rather have Uggla playing 2B then make that trade.
