Man - how does the tribe get an .875 OPS in over 1,000 PAs over limited and erratic playing time from Brian Giles and trade him for Ricardo Rincon?
Phew - that's bad. And Burnitz for a 34 yr old backup SS in Kevin Seitzer. That's really lousy internal scouting. |

I wonder if the team didn't come together quicker than they expected. How do you have a contender and Dennis Martinez (41), Orel Hershiser (36) and a couple of slop tossers in Charles Nagy and Mark Clark are good enough for a ring? Maddux, Glavine, Avery, Smoltz vs. Martinez, Orel, Nagy and Ken Hill has to be the most lopsided SP matchups in WS history (when considering where Martinez and Hershiser were in their careers). Tough break and a tough matchup for Cleveland. |

A Cards fan told me tonight at dinner that there’s serious talk about Soto to the Cards.
That would be an amazing lineup with Arenado & Goldy. What would the compensation going back be? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

You just put together a package headlined by what would be your 3rd, if Gorman still qualified as a prospect, and 5th best prospects for a 23 year old easily on a HoF course. Nah... |

I’m not asking Dewitt to lose money to support the team. Just put the profits back into the team. Why do you have to make a profit of $50 million? Why not pay Soto that money? Would Dewitt even miss it? |

I totally agree Walker would headline it but I also believe you make the Nationals counter with Walker in the deal. You just don't give him away. |

You do just give him away, because hes a prospect and there are 5 other teams out there in a playoff race with a better offer to be made than Walker already. If you aren't entering the negotiations with your best then you aren't even starting a conversation.

On top of that, you have to make an extension with Soto, who is represented by Scott Boras and almost never does an extension before FA. |

It's not an MLB The Show trade because you already underrated Winn and Burleson compared to the way the industry sees them.
