I changed my mind I don't want russell martin unless it's a 2 year deal wit mad incentives + Schwarber will be ready by 2016 or '17 no need to overpay a 30+ catcher who will decline when you have a young prospect who will be ready in a couple years
 
I hate to say this, but A-Roid holds all the cards in this Yankee shit.

Either NY plays him, and he'll be booed MERCILESSLY, or the cut him and owe dude $60 million.

Everyone said that stupid 10-year $350 extension he got in '07 was THE dumbest move ever made in baseball contracts the day it happened....and we were all right.

It was dumb in principle but it didn't hurt the Yankees any outside of PR distractions. Yanks won a World Series off of that b/c there's no way the Yanks win it in '09 w/o Alex. On top of that coming out of that contract he's only had two disastrous years. 2013 because he only played a handful of games and 2014 b/c he didn't play at all. He's had a whole year to get his body right (and juice without testing) so I'm a firm believer that we can still get our money's worth out of him despite him being a jackass.

He's been getting booed mercilessly since Texas and that amplified once he came to NY and the steroid stuff came out. So that isn't really treading new territory either.
 
Dodgers have put their entire Outfield on the trading block.

If I'm the Tigers, I'd look at Kemp, and ask LA to eat 20million of that contract.

Everyone but Puig. The hope is to get rid of Crawford, Kemp & Ethier to avoid a luxury tax. Puig, Van Slyke and the young phenom Joc Pederson should be starting next year. I expect L.A. to fall back on big spending under the new management.

 
Cubs reportedly in trade talks with the nationals for Jordan Zimmerman.Cubs most likely will have to give up either baez,castro or russell which is stupid since zimmerman is a free agent next winter.

Not feelin this if the cubs trade castro imma be pissed for real
 
Damn I hope that doesn't happen, I want Jordan Zimmerman in pinstripes.

is Baez a SS in the majors?? If he is, they should definitely trade Castro and try to get some value outta him imo...I'm assuming the Cubs wouldn't make the trade if Zimmerman wasn't ready to sign that extension though.

Paul sullivan(that's the cubs beat writer for the tribune) already shut it down.Baez is a ss but he'll play 2b with castro at ss.I disagree about trading castro he's an established hitter on the mlb level and made multiple all star games and is signed thru 2019.He'll be 25 in march makes no sense to trade your best players for unproven talent(mets pitching prospects) or a pitcher you can sign next winter especially if you're trying to compete now.Baez has plenty of upside but I think he'll be another alfonso soriano mad k's wit mad power.Castro can hit + he was the only reason to watch the cubs a few years ago

and yea it was based off an extension being agreed too
 
Word so I just read David Robertson wants papelbon money....FOH, he can leave then. Betances >>>

And Rafael Soriano a free agent anyway, we could bring him back too.

Yea I ain't know Castro was still only 25 and signed for that long. You got a point, so I'll switch ya should keep em all unless offered a trade ya can't refuse.

I will say though, the Mets look like they got some young talented pitchers for the next 10 years with Matt Harvey and Jacob DeGrom, I'm sure they have other since they've been so terrible over the years too.
