Rocco in Tampa.

Friedman is waiting for the Tanaka dust to settle. The club that loses will jump for Price. Whether it be Mariners, D-Backs, or Cubs.

Probably the same with Shark.
 
Oh yeah of course, just over hearing about him nonstop here at work smh.

He becomes a Yank I won't mind though :smokin
 
Don't like the price tag, but would rather have him than Ervin.

LAA fans know his damn story, every other year.
 
Big on Pineda. Reports are his velocity is back, was solid in minors to close the season...and we have club option until 17.

Think he can slide into that 4-5 spot perfectly.
 
That trade is going to go down as the most over hyped trade ever :lol:

HOF ballots were due the 31st. Let's see how they manage to **** it up this year :smh:
 
Nationals too low. Dare I say Dodgers too high.

Completely agree, no depth in the farm. Rotation and bullpen is solid, but the everyday lineup is riddled with holes.

I don't care how much money you have, if a player/position is not available, you're SOL. Proven by having to re-sign Uribe to man 3rd. He had a solid 2013 by his standards and stepped up in the playoffs, but not enough to forget his 2011-2012 campaigns. I'm sure the powers that be wanted to upgrade at that position, unfortunately, no one is available.

Injury wise, Kemp and Hanley are major liabilities. If those guys are out, this team sputters, Puig is a spark plug but not ready to carry any type of team or responsibility at this point. If Kemp is out, you have no CF'er, and two guys on the decline playing the corners. On top of that, the two guys playing the corners can't hit lefties to save their life.

I chuckled when I saw the list, :lol:

I tell everyone, the incredible run they had from July to August made everyone forget about April-June and September. The one silver lining is that if the Dodgers miss the playoffs, which is a possibility the way the team stands at this point, Ned Colletti will take the fall... FINALLY!
 
Baseball season can't come soon enough.

Agreed.


I know ya'll dealing with a snowstorm over there but I saw the sun here in the PNW and the only thing missing was the smell of freshly cut grass and the snapping of the ball hitting the glove....few more months.

I also volunteer in a Big Brother like program for a kid named Syncere from Connecticut. He's a huge Steeelers and Antonio Brown fan. Kid has tons of energy and loves throwing a football or baseball around the yard.

I need to find myself a woman that's down for an adult softball league.
