I was confused but didn't want to correct you. Figured you were drunk and I've probably typed worse on this site with no one saying a word about it.

Any chance we are sending Wade back at request of another team who wants an MRI before completing a trade deal?

Looking at rebuilding the rotation in 2017:

We have three known commodities coming in: Duffy, Ventura and Kennedy
Coming off the DL, we have Vargas and Minor
Borderline options already on the roster will be Young and Flynn
Potential call-ups include Mills, Almonte, Strahm and Zimmer

The club will decline Medlen's mutual option
Volquez will decline his mutual option

It seems like if you acquired a number 2 type, the rotation would fall into place nicely. Maybe they could look at Cashner in FA if they really want to splash the pot.

Another option to consider is dealing Herrera for an MLB ready starter - if the Dodgers were willing to deal Urias, for example (Herrera is more valuable than Davis both in control and contract dollars). Then splash the pot next year on a premium reliever. Take chances on rebound candidates like Storen or Cecil and hope you capture lightning in a bottle.

Anyone else have any brilliant ideas?

That's possible.

If there is anything good to come from today, it's that Wade is not having elbow trouble as speculated:

Welp, the more you know. Things may just continue to suck harder and harder after all ROFL.

Indians get Lucroy.

ABC News is on top of this:

The trade deadline gods really hate the royals. Even going back to the year David DeJesus got hurt right before the deadline in 2010 or whatever year that was.

Believe Ryan Kalish and Nosh Reddick were the names that were discussed for him before that, too.

Isn't that Lucroy in the stands watching Hopkins make a silly catch?

Lol lol


Rangers were 1-6 before they met us. Who they've now ass-raped 5-1.

@JonHeyman: brewers have a deal with indians with lucroy going to cleveland, pending player approval. @Ken_Rosenthal an @JeffPassan 1st

Just shut Davis down. No reason to put him back out there at this point. Let's get him some rest and have him ready and fresh for next season.

We should make Young the closer. We don't seem to have a need for one anymore so that way we won't see Young pitch.

Twins might leap us in the division standings before end of the season.

:facepalm:
