That depends, if they are stubborn ****s like Hosmer and Moustakas have proven to be I'd be less likely to promote them quickly, we don't need more dudes who don't listen to the hitting coach cause hey my brother knows it man.

It's not really rocket science, 3 month rentals don't get much, 3 year rentals do. I'm surprised they gave up Mejia but they get to add a really good piece to their pen while they have still have guys like Lindor, etc.


I understand but their #1 prospect?!?!?

Hosmer will make them champions.

He's a catcher and apparently Cleveland had decided he wasn't replacing the 2 guys on their roster because of his defense.

Man. This is coming like a tidal wave. Some of Lucas Giolito's old tweets surfaced today.

I believe he was hitting in the .230-.240 range around a month ago. He's sitting at around .115 for his last 10 games and probably pretty similar for the past month.

I'm also not that excited about someone with raw power and not much else. IMO that has little value in Kauffman stadium where a player has to be able to get on base consistently.
why do you need to be such a downer?

You guys keep sleeping on the other reliever the Indians received that they control even longer than Hand.

Usually hearing that a team gave up a top 100 prospect for 2 relievers makes people double take it just does.

Maybe if you haven't been paying attention to recent trends in trades and playoff success.

Same reason I was hoping the Cubs would have traded Wade Davis to someone like the Nationals last year when it was 100% clear the Cubs weren't the best team in the NL. They supposedly had internal discussions about it but didn't have the balls to do it.

Better a downer than an asshole. I'm being a realist, not attacking others for their opinion like you.

That's kcchiefsus for you.

Bubba Starling is out with another ****ing injury, likely for the rest of the season. They need to move on, what a complete waste.

Mecca 07-19-2018 02:48 PM
He didn't even get hurt playing....just another one of the bad draft picks in that time frame.

From Christian Colon through what Ashe Russell just a number of years of wasted picks.

They'll need his 40 spot soon. Time to cut bait.
