The Rays acquired CJ Cron from the Angels, then turned around and cut Corey Dickerson, who was the starting DH for the American League in the All-Star game last year. Figure that one out.

If he can build up to a full workload and maintain the stuff throughout it, he's going to be a star. Literally the only question is if he can maintain his velocity and sharpness through 180+ innings. Time to go on that one, but there are no logical warning signs against it.

I'd be calling Corey Dickerson right now. What a weird, weird decision by the Rays.
They're both DH types, and Dickerson is a lot better. Literally WTF.

Yep. Name an old player with a crazy loopy swing who can still hit into their middle 30s.

Apparently Tampa has decided to wait until the 1st week of Spring Training to tank their team.

Check that, it's a one for one trade. Did someone hack the Rays front office and start making moves?

Rays DFA Dickerson to open up a spot on the roster for Cron and then trade Odorizzi for an A ball prospect minutes later... what am I missing here?

Yes to Corey Dickerson. Projected .268/.316/.484 with a OPS of .800 with 25 HR's. The downside is that he strikes out way too much for my liking of 137K's to 40 walks. But I'm speculating that a possible 1.5 to 2.5 WAR range type of a guy, the Royals should look into him for the DH position.

At this point, we should see Archer traded to Milwaukee for Ryan Braun's elbow pad within the hour.

Well that's a bummer, but I'm not surprised. Seemed like there was a lot of smoke that he was leaning toward San Diego. Curious to see what the terms are. 100 years from now, his dash home from 3rd base will probably still be one of the top 5 plays in Royals history.

Padres went 8. I'm guessing that's a player option?

I liked Hos, but I truly believe it's in the best interest of the team for him to sign with SD. He's a very good player but not elite.
