  1. I can live with this possibility however... That Harris stuck to his guns and wouldn't accept an unacceptable trade. And maybe they are more serious about holding onto Eduardo (and he has mutual feelings) than what I have in my head... We'll see. But... still... The White Sox, Mets, and Cardinals traded two Starting pitchers each, along with relievers and sundry other players... Harris couldn't squeeze out any acceptable offer from any other team aside from the Dodgers? That is disappointing.
  2. I do NOT want to see an Eduardo extension. A buyout of his option, YES. An extension, NO. But, also... I'm going to take this with a huge grain of salt... until I see otherwise. It seems like window-dressing after the fact (of the miss at the deadline...). But we'll see...
  3. I don't believe he'll be open to discussing an extension... just guessing... but also, I don't think the Tigers are interested in "extension" talks either... IMO. Maybe they would be open to buying out his option if that's a possibility... But I don't think so. And I don't believe he'd be open to that either. IMO. They just tried to trade him to LA where he DEFINITELY did not want to play. He's opting out at the end of this season. We get nothing. Except the beauty of his remaining starts for 2023... IMO.
  4. This can usually be resolved though, by something called... "Communication".
  5. Whither Fulmer & Boyd...?
  6. "these mfs tried to steal my vote." That's EXACTLY how I take it. These MF'ers tried to **** me out of my vote. I am not appreciative.
  7. Gotta be SEDITION and CONSPIRACY...
  8. You're having a serious problem with reading comprehension: 1984Echoes Members 5.5k Posted 18 minutes ago (edited) There's no possible way that the two teams knew this for DAYS but still spent all this time trying to hammer out a deal. What a colossal waste of time for both teams if they KNEW this but still wasted time working on a deal. Seriously?
  9. Which to my point is STILL a fail by wasting time on a deal that was dead before it began. The timing of when they wasted that time is moot point. Reading comprehension.
  10. YOU said they knew this for days. I was quoting YOU... did you not notice that?
  11. They're at roughly: LESS $65 million right now, doing nothing. Move Eduardo and their payroll is down $80 mill from this year, before making any moves. (Miggy, Schoop, Lorenzen, Boyd, Cisnero, Turnbull, Austin Meadows).

  13. I'm good with that. It ain't over till it's over...
  14. This is a whiff by Harris... If he's communicating with Eduardo... and is pretty certain he'll pull his no-trade option on a Dodgers deal... Then he should have been all-in on the Orioles instead... Harris can still negotiate with the Dodgers/ Reds/ etc./ other teams... But when push comes to shove, he has to pull the trigger on a deal from a team that Eduardo does not have on his no-trade/ cannot nix the deal. Even if it's a lower haul than a Dodgers deal... you take the best deal that won't be nixed. Push the Orioles as far as they'll go and take their deal. Even if a potential Dodgers deal is better... IMO.
  15. Scherzer and Verlander waived their no-trades... IIRC.
  16. Dalton Rushing, Nick Frasso... maybe one more lower level guy... (just WAG'ing...)
  17. ERRRGGG!!!
  18. I was still hoping for some (at least one?) low-level additional lottery ticket as a throw-in... But... guess not.
  19. I can't get Hao Yu out of my mind. I also don't feel attached, or confused, by all the Lee mentions... So I'm just thinking... Hao Yu?
  20. To the Dodgers or the Orioles for the win...
  21. For Lorenzen... I think yes. Crawford is too much.
