5 Potential Trades The Yankees Should Pull Off.
Yankees Get: David Wright
Mets Get: Dellin Betances, Aj Burnett, Eduardo Nunez, And Cash.
Yankees Get: Domonic Brown & Jim Thome
Phillies Get: Dellin Betances, Nick Swisher, & A Mid Level Prospect
Yankees Get: Jayson Heyward
Braves Get: Dellin Betances, Eduardo Nunez, Francisco Cervelli, Ravel Santana, & a Mid Level Prospect.
Yankees Get: Billy Butler
Royals Get: Phil Hughes and A Mid Level Prospect
Yankees Get: Mark Trumbo
Angels Get: Phil Hughes & Adam Warren None of them will happen especially the Angels one, Trumbo is good and Hughes sucks I never knew you could trade the same player twice. Unless I didn't understand this right. You didn't understand it, I'm saying those are 5 deals they should try to pull off.

hughes and burnett for pablo sandoval Why would the Giants trade an all star type of player that can drive in runs, what the Giants need, for two underachieving pitchers?

Cuban left-hander Gerardo Concepcion, an 18-year-old free agent, is very close to signing with a team, according to Enrique Rojas of ESPNDeportes.com (story is in Spanish).
Concepcion's agent, Jaime Torres, tells Rojas that the lefty has offers from as many as 10 teams and could sign as soon as this weekend. Earlier this week, Torres said the Rangers, Yankees, Cubs and White Sox have expressed the most interest in Concepcion so far.
The Cuban defector recently established residency in Mexico and was declared eligible for free agency thereafter. Les go Rangerssss. Cant go wrong with an 18 year old!

well cabrera and fielder are the best hitting dou in baseball
better then any teams duo
bos: gonzalez & youkilis
nyy: cano & teixera
tex: beltre & hamilton
fla: reyes & ramirez
stl: berkman & holliday
col: gonzalez & tulowitski
det: cabrera & fielder
so which is the best out of the ones i named??? Here is how i would rank them
1. Fielder and Miggy
2. Cano and Teixera
3. Cargo and Tulo
4. Youkillis and Agon
5. Beltre and Hamilton
6. Berkman and Holliday
7. Reyes and Hanley Well if Morales comes back healthy to his 09 season with 34 Homers, 100+ RBIs, and 304 batting Average. Pujols and Morales could rank up very high. Maybe second best behind Fielder and Cabrera Thats a big IF Yes it's a big if but hey who knows Anything can happen. Castro and LaHair, hehehe Umm. Votto and Bruce I like votto and bruce ever since their 1st at bat in the majors but bruce is not that guy to be called a slugger like votto is
but id put them in my top 10 The Reds are my boy's but I can't put that duo against Prince and Miggy. Miggy's the best hitter in the bizz Give me a better riger hand hitter then my boy miggy and a better left hand hitter then my boy prince There's a couple lefty's I'd rather have than Prince, Votto for certain probably Hamilton too, but Miggy I'd take over anyone. I guess I should have said Votto and Bruce*. *= When Bruce is actually being patient, he is pretty freaking good. When he is frustrated, he will swing at the family dog if the pitcher threw it up there. In this case, a patient Jay Bruce. By the way, I didn't say Votto and Bruce are the best but they are certainly in the running. McCutchen and Garrett Jones. haha jk im just an optimistic pirates fan -_- Texas still has the best complete lineup in all of baseball. Their 7th hitter(Napoli) would hit 4th on most teams. We are talking about 2 best hitters not an entire lineup DA @We are talking about 2 best hitters not an entire lineup DA
I know that. Miggy and Fielder is the best duo but Texas is still the best complete line up. People think just because a team gets two great hitters it makes there lineup the best..not true.

Toronto Blue Jays should claim Rick Vanden Hurk P
25 Jan 2012 00:34:30
Roy Oswalt said he does not want to play in Detroit! Maybe he could sign as Red Sox for 2 years and Edwin Jackson a 1 year deal to Detroit! Boras does owe them a favor for inking Prince longterm. Maybe he can convince Edwin it's in his best interest to sign a 1 yr deal with DTown He might want to play in Detroit now....lol Oswalt said that before they got fielder
BUT NOW THE TIGERS CAN BE A DESTINATION OTHER THEN BOS, NYY AND LAA TO WHERE THE WHOLE TEAM IS GOOD AND SURROUNDED BY GOOD HITTERS LAA? They will not sign another starter. I say TEX, BOS, STL are the possible destinations.

update with francisco cordero signing
1 year 4.5 million dollar contract will serve as setup man to sergio santos
the blue jays bullpen has been beefed up drastically 4.5 makes this deal okay, Cordero is one of the least effective closers but at 4.5 he's fine.
24 Jan 2012 21:42:22
blue jays have officially signed francisco cordero this true
Blue Jays To Sign Francisco Cordero
By Ben Nicholson-Smith [January 24 at 3:26pm CST]
The Blue Jays agreed to sign right-handed reliever Francisco Cordero to a one-year, $4.5MM contract, Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports tweets. The Proformance client will set up for closer Sergio Santos, Rosenthal writes.
Cordero, 36, posted a 2.45 ERA with 5.4 K/9, 2.8 BB/9 and a 50% ground ball rate in 69 2/3 innings for Cincinnati this past season. He drew interest from other clubs, including the Angels, Orioles and Phillies.
The Blue Jays' bullpen will look considerably different in 2012, with newcomers Cordero, Jason Frasor, Sergio Santos and Darren Oliver joining holdovers Carlos Villanueva, Luis Perez, Jesse Litsch and Casey Janssen.
my source in mlbtraderumours.com and jays fans whether u don't want to believe it A.A has done some great things for this franchise.

Tigers sign Prince Fielder 9 yrs 214 mil
Tigers are now the favorite in the AL Angels are still the favorite Angels?? Rangers are. Then Yankees, Angels Tigers. I think the yankees are not above them now. it goes angels, tigers, rangers and then yankees
im a major pujols fan but also a fan of the tigers. i read that prince will be the 1b but i rather have that cabrera is 1b and then fielder is dh......but i can deal with cabrera moving to 3b and then the tigers getting a cheap dh. now since they got fielder.....they are going to win the division and more good free agents will come here.....maybe roy oswalt will come to help us out
**thanks for martinez....sorry you got the injury but at the same time you gave the tigers an opening to fill and we got the 2nd best free agents". i wasnt a fan of fielder but now i am....lol
heres the current lineup:
if they move cabrera to 3b=
c= avila
1b= fielder (cabrera)
2b= santiago (raburn)
ss= peralta
3b= cabrera (inge)
lf= raburn (young)
cf= jackson
rf= boesch
dh= young (fielder)
imagine when martinez comes back...oh man would that be lethal. now they found a lethal guy to hit behind cabrera. they can go out and get cepedes now and a 5th starter
cepedes = 4 yrs $35 million
oswalt = 1 yr $6 million
trade for a 2b (a trade for mets murphy by giving them dirks and something else) then we would be set as a team and compete for the #1 team after the angels.
thanks illitch you are the best owner in sports and im glad you are with the tigers cause this wouldnt have happened if you werent there Tigers, yankees, angels Angels havent even bee to the playoffs yet tigers r the best and rangers rays and yankees will finish with a better record The Angels haven't been to the playoffs for only two years, Before that they were one of the most dominant teams from 02 to 09. You can't just say the Angels are the best because of 2 players. Albert is great and CJ is alright/goodish. He isn't good in the playoffs. Angels haven't played one game and they lost last year by 10 games. I don't think CJ and Albert make them win 10 more. Maybe 7 or so. Rangers were the best team in the AL last year and they got better. Still the best team in the AL. The rangers are the same team even with the addition of darvish cause wilson was good so they void each other
the angels went all in and got 2 of the top 3 free agents and so they will finish higher then the rangers
the tigers are now up there competing as the top team even without martinez

Get over it Hater the Angels are gonna do it this year. @Really they Won't win the WS with one Of the best rotations in baseball, the best hitter in baseball and alsO the return of Morales and Wells boUnce back year also Mathis is gone so our black hole in the lineup is gone.

Is there a reason you randomly capitalize letters? Angels won't win the WS. COUNT ON IT. I didn't mean to do that my iPhone does that some times. Also you watch and see how dominant they are this year

Bloue Jays signed 44 year old Omar Vizquel 3B/2B add some depth and leadership! Heck i wouldve signed him also

The Rangers are discussing reliever Koji Uehara with several teams, one of whom are the Blue Jays, reports Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports (Twitter link).

More info about Brandon Morrow's extension
The Toronto Blue Jays and Brandon Morrow appear set to avoid arbitration by closing in on a US$20-million, three-year contract extension, according to a source.
The deal, which could be announced as early as Tuesday, includes a $10 million option or a $1 million buyout.
Morrow and the Blue Jays were only $300,000 apart (he asked $4.2 million, the club offered $3.9 million) on a 2012 contract last week when players and clubs exchanged arbitration figures.
It turns out that was a mere formality, as the sides were working toward a longer-term agreement.
The looming signing leaves reliever Casey Janssen as the club's only arbitration player.
GM Alex Anthopoulos's policy is to go to a hearing once numbers are exchanged unless a multi-year deal is worked out.

Rangers sign Prince Fielder.....No Joke!!!! There not going to sign him
23 Jan 2012 00:00:01
There's no vailidity to this rumor but, I could imagine Hanley Ramirez being traded back to Boston for a s**t ton of prospects, and both teams benefiting. And Boston still miss the playoffs. Lol You could be right on this one, after all the Sox trade their shortstops from last year....bring Hanley to REDSOX NATION !
22 jan 2012 23:26:15
these are actual rumors and not me thinking of them.......
the tigers are in need of a dh since martinez is 99% sure hes out for the year
with that in mind there has been a few names that have surfaced to be on the tigers radar
(let me remind you this in not my rumors, its actual rumors)
1) johnny damon
(1 yr $3,000,000)
2) derrek lee
(1 yr $4,000,000)
3) vlad guererro
(1 yr $3,000,000)
4) raul ibanez
(1 yr $2,000,000)
5) hideki matsui
(1 yr $2,000,000)
6) jd drew
(1 yr $2,000,000)
7) magglio ordonez
(1 yr $4,000,000)
8) alfonso soriano
(in a trade)
9) marlon byrd
(in a trade)
10) juan pierre
(2 yrs $10,000,000)
11) carlos lee
(in a trade)
12) yeonis cepedes
(5 yrs $45,000,000)
13) manny ramirez
(1 yr $2,000,000)
14) cody ross
(1 yr $3,000,000)
15) prince fielder
(3 yrs $60,000,000)
then my pick for a rumor:
16) pudge rodriguez
(1 yr $2,000,000)
these are actual 15 names (and then one of mine) that have surfaced to be a tigers since the injury of martinez last week
theres a few that i wish was on there but mostly pudge rodriguez who will give us a platoon at dh and a 3rd catcher.....we need that
the fielder one is true...people asked dombrowski if he would consider fielder and he said: we have that in mind and we could offer a contract but not at the level he wants, most likey what he would want per year but not the amount of years
they can sign fielder to a 3 yr $60 million contract
the money is what i believe is what they are worth and what they will get Pudge would be a bad idea. Well past his prime.
Could get Soriano and Garza in the same trade. I just want Vladi to get a ring! Idc where he goes! If Tigers win a WS with Vlad I will be stoked for him! He deserves it. I like the idea of Damon or Pierre. All the run producers are washed up, go with one of these guy because Delmon's gonna have a huge year anyway. So we can get pierre and cepedes
if these 2 happen
TRADE FOR MURPHY( NYM) OR BONIFACIO (FLA) OR PRADO (ATL)
then heres the lineup
C: AVILA
1B: CABRERA
2B: RABURN/SANTIAGO
SS: PERALTA
3B: INGE (BONIFACIO/PRADO/MURPHY)
LF: PIERRE/BOESCH
CF: JACKSON
RF: CEPEDES
DH: YOUNG
1) CF JACKSON
2) LF BOESCH/PIERRE
3) RF CEPEDES
4) 1B CABRERA
5) DH YOUNG
6) SS PERALTA
7) 3B INGE (BONIFACIO/MURPHY/PRADO)
8) 2B RABURN/SANTIAGO
9) C AVILA I agree them or another contender should pursue Bonafacio, He's super versatile and a great table setter. I'd love the Red's to target him but they don't have the resources. Detroit could definately pull it off though
22 Jan 2012 06:20:19
Phil Hughes to the Astros for Carlos Lee (and cash).
I think this trade could benefit both teams immensely because Phil Hughes has fallen out of favor in New York, and costs a considerable amount to fill a long-relief role. And he would help solidify an Astros rotation in the process of rebuilding.
And Carlos Lee would provide an adequate alternative to Andrew Jones playing regularly at DH. He would provide about the same power, with a little more on-base capability. (But both are right-handed, so NO PLATOON SUGGESTIONS.)
22 Jan 2012 06:15:03
Marlon Byrd to the Red Sox for a pitching prospect. And to finish the Theo deal Red sox want prospects for compensation for theo like jackson, or mcnutt They will not get Jackson or McNutt. The best they will get is a midlevel prospect or two.
I wonder if people think Epstein is God? He only had one year left on his contract with Boston. When he took over in Boston, most of the team that won the WS was already there. Boston will get a top prospect
22 Jan 2012 03:21:33
TOR: Felix Hernandez
SEA: Drabek, Arencibia, AA Yes because Drabek who right now in his career is 4-8 with a 5.83 ERA and Arencibia though he has power has a career batting average of .213 along with who for king Felix who is much better than Drabek plus the Mariners are set up with Montero who they just got who can hit for average and power so you might want to consider a different trade. You would have to add lawrie and more.
22 Jan 2012 01:45:16
With Scutaro being dealt to the Rockies, the Red Sox now have enough money to sign another starter. Though Boston has been highly rumored to be in discussions with Roy Oswalt, would Edwin Jackson or Gavin Floyd make more sense?
Oswalt would be a definite one year deal, and with the Red Sox having three quality starters are hoping that Bard could fit in nicely as a 4th. If they sign Jackson to a 3-4 year deal, they'd have a set rotation for a good 3 years (on paper of course). Same would be true if they traded for Gavin Floyd. After Oswalt's deal is done (if they do sign him), they are stuck again looking for their fifth stater, possibly a fourth as well if Bard doesn't work out. Would be good, but I don't think Boston has the money to just spend 15-20 million a year on a guy.
21 Jan 2012 14:57:13
Would you do this trade?
Cincinnati Gets:Eric Young Jr. , Plus one other player
Colorado Gets:Bronson Arroyo The Reds are looking at acquiring another infielder and in a perfect world would love to shed themselves of Arroyo's contract. I just don't think they have enough pitching depth to lose an innings eater like Bronson this year. What if they traded Arroyo and then signed Roy oswalt Colorado might be trying to trade him to the Mets for Justin Turner.
As for this rumor, it's stupid, why would Colorado want to add an extreme fly-ball pitcher who gave up the most homeruns last year? It wouldn't help them at all. Its a red fan what do u expect? Doubt it's a Reds fan, Why the hell would trade Pitching depth for a backup Q: What do the Cincinnati Reds and lawn furniture have in common?
A: They both fold and end up in the cellar after Labor Day!
Q: What's the difference between a Great American Ballpark hotdog, and a Citizens Bank Park hotdog?
A: You can buy a Citizens Bank Park hotdog in October!
Q: What is a Cincinnati Reds fan's favorite whine?
A: "We can't beat Philadelphia." I hope Philly budgeted for walkers this season with that old ass line up. Rollins, Utley, and Howrad LMFAO that don't strike fear in nobody. If Philly's teams were as good as their fans are obnoxious people might worry about em. 75 Reds, GREATEST TEAM EVER, holla back son The reds can't trade Bronson Arroyo, because they would have to pay all of the 15 million dollars that is deferred if traded. Plus Bronson will have a good season this year 14 wins and 200 innings pitched. Im sorry where did pete rose flee to to win a championship in 1980. oh ya PHILLY! He already won 2 in Cincy. And speaking of Pete, the greatest player to ever wear a Phils jersey calls himself a Red. Case closed. The greatest player ever to wear a phillis jersey is mike schmit.
is pete rose in the hof?
oh thats right he not.

Albert Pujols 2005-2011:
ISO .279/.340/.241/.296/.331/.242
BAPIP .316/.292/.317/.340/.299/.277
wOBA .436/.448/.414/.458/.449/.420/.385
All three sabrmetrics-statistics measure a players batting performance more effectively than the simple statistics used in a previous post to show Pujols' regression. First, he failed to show the longterm effects, and only showed the last few seasons, which can lead to unfair trends. And he failed to mention that Pujols dealt with several lasting injuries during the 2011 season.
I--by no means--am proposing that Pujols will continue to be a 8 win player, but I'm simply stating that previous posts explaining how Pujols will somehow regress to a dismal state in a matter of two or three years is absurd. For people who think he will continue to hit like he did in st.louis is absurd. he is 31 and been declining since 2008 but the angels are paying him for .300 ba, 35 hr and 100 rbis but he wont produce that due to him declining. For all angel fans who think the angels are the best team now with pujols
year avg/ obp/ slg/ ops
2008 .357/ .462/ .653/ 1.115
2009 .327/ .443/ .658/ 1.101
2010 .312/ .414/ .596/ 1.010
2011 .299/ .366/ .541/ .907
as you can see by the stats his average, on base percentage, slugging percentage, and ops have all been declining since 2008. so the angels are getting is bad years but paying him for good years.
rangers still have a better lineup and they also upgraded their rotation by getting rid of overrated cj wilson and getting yu darvish I see you're the same one who posted that earlier. I clearly stated that you used very simple statistics that are often misleading, which is why I chose to use several sabrmetric statistics to show Pujols' actual worth over the last few years. I never stated that Pujols was going to maintain that value (in fact I stated that he wouldn't maintain it). I simply said, that his regression won't be as dramatic as you keep saying. Im just saying the angels way overpaid for a guy who is declining Nice vocabulary, I never knew Pujols could be described as "declining" so many times without any substantial evidence to support it.
Of course he's not going to be a 6 win player for the contract's entirety. The Angels are hoping for him to produce at a high level for the next few years, and bring a championship, anything else is a bonus. And even if you consider the contract an "overpay" for the tailend years of Pujols' career, the Angels get 10 years of a premier player, who might be considered one of the top hitters to ever play the game. So paying a little extra is worth while, no? Until Darvish proves everyone wrong im with Wilson he only took the Rangers to the world series twice just like Pujols soo yea im saying Angels over Rangers As a Ranger fan...I wouldn't say the Angels overpaid. They just gave him too many years. Obviously Albert wanted ten but I would give him 5 with a player option, take it or leave it. Adding in the no trade clause and continuing to pay him 250 Million Dollars into his 40's is absurd. Just saying. He will be very good for 5 or 6 years then just be good or decent. Still, they got Albert and are going to make LOTS of money off of him with revenue. How did cj wilson pitch in the playoffs? oh thats right he lost in every round and didnt win a playoff game.
yu wins one playoff game and he is better Texas fans are mad at CJ and think he is bad because he didn't win in the playoffs. Well here's the thing about the Angels. We have Weaver, Haren, and Santana to go along with CJ so I will bet he will do much better in the post season this year knowing he doesn't need to be that guy to get it done. Im not a rangers fan LMFAO. CJ cant pitch in the big games he fades. Everyone saw it during the postseason. Theres a reason why rangers didnt resign him and went after darvish Cj also won't be pitching in 110 degrees heat for the whole year which can wear on a pitcher

20 jan 2012 06:18:50
and if that trade aint good a nuff to land andrew micuchan throw in danny worth or clete thomas It. Would take more than that. Besides pirates are in rebuild moder constantly and will not part with one of the main parts of there future Cutch isn't going anywhere. We are almost where we need to be in terms of a true contender. You've seen peeks of it last season, but this could be the year they finally break through. We've got a slurry of young arms, a great outfield (Mccutchen, Tabata, Presley) A decent infield (Alvarez, Barmes, Walker, and G. Jones/Casey McGee) and Rod Barajas catching. Don't forget "the hammer" to close games. Buccos 2012! before the world ends lol

Why not just keep their starter? Sure you can keep Drabek or can go after a guy like Garza

Cubs still in on Fielder I was told today. Talking 6 years with opt out clause after 3 years @ 150M. This is a deal in the works Why do people on here think they are MLB insiders? Lol you're just a goob sitting behind a computer on twitter and bleacherreport. And bleacherreport is a joke. That's about the least informed website on the web He's obviously an insider, I mean he's posting on this site(; Well I guess we will all just fond out over the next few days. Where's this "inside info" come from? I'm a close friend to one top Cubs exec. "I'm a close friend to one top Cubs exec."
LMAO. If you were that then you would be telling Buster Olney, not mlb-trade-rumors.com....Keep dreaming. Cubs suck anyways!! Have fun being a Cubs fan and losing for another century!! Why would I want to tell him? Im young. I don't know him either. But go ahead make fun of us Cub fans. That's okay. Lol in your dreams. You don't know any cubs executives.

come on jays just sign fielder already u already said there was a deal in place He's going to be a Ranger or a National. Jays fan disagree? LOL Doesn't Fielder want to win. The only chance he has at winning is with the Rangers. Jays won't even take him to the playoffs, same with Nationals. Jays organization is content with being a middle of the pack team. Rangers organization actually makes strides to make their team and franchise better.

Yanks and Cubs swap problems. Yankees send AJ to Cubs for Soriano and Dillon Maples + Cash. Gr8 trade for both sides I say just Soriano and cash nothing more if the Yankees want a deal they have to do this deal or I wouldn't do it. That is if I were Theo!

Nationals sign Fielder
trade Morse to Seatle for pitching prospects.
I think this would work because if the Nats signed Fielder Morse could be expendable and Seatle could use a better 1st baseman, and seem to have lots of pitching prospects.What do you think? What a bout Adam LaRoche? I realize the nats have Laroche, but they are rumored to still be interested in Fielder so he can't mean that much to him Morse would play left field, making laroche expendable

Redsox and athletics
A's send Kurt suzuki
Redsox send Ryan kalish and desclosed prospect While I understand oakland seems to be gettinng rid of their veterans it seems like they should target somewhere that needs a catcher. Maybe as a back up in minnesota. The Red Sox definitely won't go for it Poor red sox fan What are you on?

JAMIE MOYER SIGNED A MINOR LEAGUE CONTRACT WITH AN INVITATION TO SPRING TRAINING
BUT HE WILL BE AT THE RIPE AGE OF 49....WAY TO GO MOYER
i like moyer cause hes not a pussy like most athletes now adays....like sidney crosby for the NHL
he got tommy john surgery this past year and he still gets a contract when younger guys like jeremy bonderman is not in baseball or brandon webb hasnt pitched much in 3 years or johan santana.....MOYER IS A WORKHORSE
hope he makes the majors and gets a complete game or a perfect game...LOL I agree its nice to see moyer still pitching even at 49. This is great go moyer Webb and Santana both had should surgery which is not tommy john (no duh).

Tigers sign Prince Fielder to a 1 yr deal worth $18 million He Wants something over at least 10 years It would have to be 19 million like cabrara Feilder is from michigan right No he's from ontario california, not Michigan or canada Didnt his dad or some one play for the tigers because ive heard storys about when prince was 12 his dad would give him batting practice at the old tiger stadiam and he was hitting boms Yeah Cecil played for the Tigers but I don't think that matters to Prince.

For all angel fans who think the angels are the best team now with pujols
year avg/ obp/ slg/ ops
2008 .357/ .462/ .653/ 1.115
2009 .327/ .443/ .658/ 1.101
2010 .312/ .414/ .596/ 1.010
2011 .299/ .366/ .541/ .907
as you can see by the stats his average, on base percentage, slugging percentage, and ops have all been declining since 2008. so the angels are getting is bad years but paying him for good years. Wow. Never knew that until you actually post the stats. Very true. And they are paying him for TEN years. How stupid. He will be good for 5 maybe 6 years then be on a rapid decline while still making 25 million a year... Yea. for the first 5 or 6 years pujols will prob be worth his salary but the last 4 years he will be a burden I'd be willing to bet he has an opt out somewhere around year four. Listen I am an Angel Fan. We Angel fans dont care how much he is getting paid. We are just happy he is here. Also if his declining years make him in the top 5 for MVP each year then I am fine with that 1. he has no opt out
2. he is only going to get worse. so he may finish top 5 in 2012, then top 10 in 2013 but soon will not hit or do anything.
sorry to burst your bubble angles fan If you think pujosl will finish in the top 5 for mvp for the next 10 years you must be smoking something I dont think he will get in the Top 5 MVP for 10 years. He will get that for Majority of his contract though. Also just to let you guys know. Albert isn't like every other player who is good for a half his career. Albert Pujols is a Once in a generation player. You can make an arguement that he is better than Babe Ruth and I actually think that. He is playing in a time in baseball where hitting has gotten alot harder because of much better pitching. And also now every ethnicity is able to play now. When Ruth played, it was only white people. I bet if Ruth had to face people of all races, he would of had a problem and you probably had the same decline. So honestly Pujols will be unvelievable here in SoCal and anyone who thinks he is just gonna suck is just Mad that he took the money and left. Honestly ask yourself. If you were put in the same situation as Pujols. Would you take less and stay in St. Louis Missouri Or would you take much more money and go to Anaheim California. If you dont know what else is in Anaheim, Disneyland is there and I have a feeling his son kinda pushed for that . So GO ANGELS!!!!!!!!!! We will see in 5 years how pujols is. im betting in 2017 he will hit .270 23 home runs 67 rbis So here's the question: would you trade a 10 yr. $250 million contract for 3 plus world series championships? That is essentially the position that the Angels are currently in. With the pitching they have, plus a solid bullpen, and obviously a dangerous offense, they really have a good chance of winning multiple championships while Pujols is still in his prime. He will start downhill at some point in the contract; but by then, it could just be worth it for the city of Los Angeles an the Angels franchise...worth it enough that they won't mind paying that 25 mil/year for the past couple of seasons Being in the same division as Texas is gonna make that tough. If Trout is as good as advertised they will be perineal contenders, if he busts then tat lineup is really weak 3 world series in the next 10 years. lmao
the american league has alot of good teams in rangers, tigers, red sox, yankees, rays. I don't even think the Angels will win one World Series with this team. The Rangers are still better. They have the best line up in all of baseball and (Possibly?) could still sign Prince Fielder. Their rotation isn't that bad. They had the 7th best ERA last year and finally got rid of the overrated, non playoff pitching pitcher CJ Wilson. Still better than Angels. I say Rangers win division by 6 games.

so far i give the tigers a (c) for the offseason cause they really didnt do much but now they will have to with that injury to martinez
any injury to any player is bad but it would be worse for the tigers if it was cabrera
anywho..........
they went into arbitration with 5 players and signed all 5 to a contract
delmon young: ($6,750,000)
rick porcello: ($3,100,000)
phil coke: ($1,100,000)
max scherzer: ($3,750,000)
don kelly: ($900,000)
i happen to agree with all 5 deals cause its small but worth what the player deserves
---------------------------------
then they traded rp ryan perry to nationals for rp collin ballester
this trade was a bit of a shock to me cause i like perry but he was out of control in the last year and a half
---------------------------------
then they signed:
-rp octavio dotel
-c gerald laird
resigned:
-if ramon santiago
excerised option:
rp jose valverde
signed to minor league deals:
rp chris bootcheck
of niuman romero
of matt young
of eric patterson
if argenis diaz
if audy ciracio
rp roman garcia
of jerad head
rp quentin berry
ro darin downs
these are 10 names....only matt young. eric patterson, audy ciracio, argenis diaz and jerad head im familiar with
but out of the names for minor league deals....eric patterson is the biggest name cause now they would need an outfielder which most likely one of the outfielder (other then jackson) will be dh unless they sign a big name for that dh spot
so in my book the tigers get a grade of: c Without the VMart injury I would give them a solid B. They didn't bring in a big name but they didn't need to. Sometimes staying pat is the best move.
18 Jan 2012 12:03:28
SHOULD THE TIGERS CONSIDER RESIGNING MAGGLIO ORDONEZ TO A 1 YR $3 MILLION DEAL???
for less then $5 million i would but higher then that....NO
18 jan 2012 09:53:39
which trio is best in los angeles?
angels:
j. weaver, c.wilson, a. pujols
dodgers:
c. kershaw, a. ethier, m. kemp
clippers:
b.griffin, c. paul, c.butler
lakers:
k. bryant, p. gasol, a. bynum
heres my rankings of the 4
1) angels
2) clippers
3) dodgers
4) lakers
los angeles sports gained huge in the past 6 months by getting:
pujols, wilson, paul and possibly dwight howard Philly Kershaw >>> weaver
kemp = pujols now
kemp >>> pujols future. (pujols has been declining since 2008 check his ba, ob, slg,ops)
wilson= ethier (hard to compare seeing one is a pitcher and one is a hitter)
my 4.
1. dodgers
2. lakers
3. angels
4. clippers I live in LA and I am a Huge Angels Fan. Wilson isn't our third best player. It goes Pujols, Weaver, Morales. If he returns to normalcy if not it would be eitherHarn or Hunter.
The ranking would be
Angels
Clippers
Dodgers
Lakers
GO ANGELS!!!! Who cares. The only team in LA that will do anything in the next 5 years is the Lakers when they get another star player. We all know where CP3 WANTS to be. He said in his press conference "Its great to be on a team where the franchise has so much history" LOL I think he was still dreaming of being a Laker... Angels
lakers
clippers
dodgers
18 Jan 2012 05:20:02
