I don't know the prospects from either side of the failed deal. I'm speculating based on logic - the two prospects on the Angels side can't include Jo Adell. Marsh is listed by the new FG rankings as #36 so he's probably out too. Adams is at 79, so let's say it was him. Well Adams = Wilson...

Even if it's break even short term, which I don't believe, but even if, it is a better long term play because you pick up a 30 YO starter with 3 years of control left who makes $2.1M in 2020 who's peripherals look good. He can start or LR. Plus you pick up talent and move money on the Ender...

It was Pederson & Stripling for Rengifo and 2 prospects.

In my scenario, Inciarte is in a different deal to bring back young talent (not needed to today, but to keep the future going) and cutting dollar obligations both for 2020 and beyond. Instead of Camargo to Adeiny it might be Camargo to Solarte or Riley or someone acquired in the Inciarte trade.

What reasoning? Maybe you see something in Wilson and Jenista that I don't. I see Wilson as an upside at best #4 with LR being more likely. He doesn't have the stuff to close. Jenista is a project who really is living off reputation right now. As for Camargo, he's a reasonable utility piece...

Well, the Dodgers reportedly had an agreement in place with the Angels Pederson and Stripling for Rengifo and two minor leaguers. Rengifo is a not-quite Camargo. So that leaves the two minor leaguers. If you take Jo Adell out of the talks, which has to be done, then any two prospects that the...

Braves should visit with the Dodgers about the Pederson/Stripling trade. The Dodgers situation hasn't changed, they need to move some payroll and really have no room for either. While we don't know who the 2 prospects going from the Angels to the Dodgers were (or the prospect going back from...

Glad Braves weren't involved with the Dodgers. I would have hated a Wright for Wong trade. I mean, C'mon. 2 Wongs don't make a Wright.

The die has been cast. I'm all Freddie now. My thoughts were never about disliking Freddie but about maximizing his value. They chose to keep him. His max value now is to keep him through the end of his contract since the Braves are in their window of contention. Now, if the Braves go big to...

Not defending it in any way but I'm pretty sure they are proposing Bryant AND Quintana for Waters, Riley, Wright and Tarnok. Can't see that. I would do: Bryant, Quintana, Happ for Inciarte, Riley, Anderson and Tarnok

Alonso is a good option if you're looking for someone to stand at first base, get hit in the chest with the ball, reach down, collect the ball and record the out. Outside of that, it's about the most useless signing I've seen for 1B since Kotchman. I mean, he's not Ken Camanitti bad over there...

add "with Freddie Freeman" to the end and I think we have a winner

1. IF Felix looks good enough to hold down #5, then Newk probably gets traded in ST. I still think AA will look for third base options right up until the season starts. With Paxton going down and the Yanks having a couple of 3rd basemen, I think that might be an option. Outside of that, AA spent...

I suggest becoming a gay borg. Nothing wrong with that. This is the 21st century! Come out of the tool shed.

Hindsight is 2020

The Hindsight of Financial Flexibility

So you're saying he should have been traded 9 years ago? :Gasp:

Hopefully he spent the winter at the Bartolo Colon clinic getting HGH and full body stem cell shots.
