Royals trade: Kyle Zimmer Jorge bonifacio Samir duenez peter o brien jake junis Ryan o Hearn
Blue jays trade: Aaron Sanchez Marcus stroman

Aye the best

1.) 13 Mar 2017 23:10:59
Jays rejected Stroman for Blackmon, they're not trading him and Sanchez for prospects not even in the top 100.


2.) 23 Mar 2017 02:41:54
Jay's wouldn't trade Sanchez for almost anybody right now, so let's not even go there please.


3.) 30 Mar 2017 08:08:41
If the Blue Jays add Donaldson, we'll call it fair.

Royals trade: Cain, moustakas, hosmer, and mondesi
Dodgers trade: urias, Pederson, stripling

Aye the best

1.) 03 Mar 2017 18:30:41
This is terrible for the Royals. They are trading their core players and only getting 3 players back. Trading them separately will get them more in return. Also I'm pretty sure i've said this before, but one thing is clear, you are not the best.


2.) 03 Mar 2017 19:56:08
Yeah, this is really bad. This makes 0 sense for the royals. Like Batman said, they can get way more than that for those first 3, and they aren't trading mondesi. The royals will trade those first 3 at the deadline, if they are out of it and can't resign them.


3.) 03 Mar 2017 21:13:00
How would turning three guys who are all free agents next year for two of baseball's best young players a bad deal?

If it's bad for anyone, it's the Dodgers.


4.) 03 Mar 2017 21:46:50
I don't consider Joc Pederson one of the best young players in baseball. His MLB average is .224.


5.) 04 Mar 2017 01:57:25
Jeez, I hate to say it, but I agree with exposfan.


6.) 04 Mar 2017 05:41:20
Its a bad deal because if you trade everyone separately you will get triple the amount of talent back. I've said this numerous times.


7.) 04 Mar 2017 12:31:16
There is not any combo of two of those three that brings anything close to Julio Urias. Adding in Pederson is just a bonus.

Young, controllable talent isn't going to be brought in by trading three average rental players.


8.) 04 Mar 2017 12:33:55
Jkolti, batting average is now what determines good players?

Also, saying .224 is deceptive. He's had two full seasons and was closer to .250 with huge improvements in 2016. Most in the game consider him one of the best young players.


9.) 04 Mar 2017 12:34:47
Red Sox Guy, I know it's hard in this day and age, but you shouldn't struggle to agree with facts. Regardless of who shares them.


10.) 04 Mar 2017 14:10:45
You didn't present facts, expos, you presented an opinion.

You said:

How would turning three guys who are all free agents next year for two of baseball's best young players a bad deal?

If it's bad for anyone, it's the Dodgers.

A fact would be a statistic. You present an opinion, which has probably been formed based on facts.

You're welcome for the lesson.


11.) 04 Mar 2017 16:04:00
Although, based on past experience, your opinions are often based on a specific set of facts that you use to justify your preconceived and erroneous opinion.

Consider all information, and base your opinion on the full set of facts at hand, rather than vice versa.


12.) 04 Mar 2017 18:24:09
This is a bad trade for both teams, but if this happened, the royals win this trade. The Dodgers infield is set with A-Gon, Forsythe, Seager and Turner.

They get 1 year of Moustaukas and Hosmer who would be blocked so where would they play? Cain would be the only one that would start. Mondesi has potential, but when he's blocked by Seager and Willie Calhoun next year, how will he contribute?

Meanwhile, the Royals boost their future with Urias and Stripling to help their rotation and bullpen, and Joc Pederson is their starting CF.

The Royals win this trade, but the Dodgers would never do this. If they wanted to trade all of their players, they would be better trading them in separate deals. You get a better future when you trade one for multiple players.


13.) 05 Mar 2017 00:11:56
Kind of like how you argued Jay Bruce was really, really good. And when I presented facts, you argued against them by cherry-picking a small handful of lesser stats to make your claim?

You remind me of every time Dan Rather lectures on journalistic integrity. It's laughable.


14.) 05 Mar 2017 03:14:06
exposfan, you still think Mark Trumbo is a better defensive player than Jay Bruce?


15.) 05 Mar 2017 13:28:04
Past three seasons in RF. (Past 3 seasons because it gives us a much better understanding of how they've played recently. )

Bruce: -12 DRS, -19.1 UZR, -37.9 DEF rating (an overall rating considering all defensive factors)

Trumbo: -12 DRS, -8.5 DZR, -15.5 DEF.

Not only would I suggest Trumbo is the better defender, Fangraphs would as well.


16.) 05 Mar 2017 13:30:18
And before you go spouting your same tired nonsense of "well, Trumbo is so bad they relegated him to DH. " I'll beat you to the punch:

If Jay Bruce were on a team that had a DH, he'd play DH.


17.) 05 Mar 2017 13:41:37
But I must say, I'm eagerly anticipating to see how you'll ignore inconvenient stats and cherry-pick useless ones to claim Bruce is better. (Because you've done it in the past)

Before you do such thing, let's heed your own lesson: "Consider all information, and base your opinion on the full set of facts at hand, rather than vice versa. "

Otherwise, you'll be guilty of your own claims: "your opinions are often based on a specific set of facts that you use to justify your preconceived and erroneous opinion. "

Now that the parameters are set, I look forward to seeing you be wrong (AGAIN) .


18.) 05 Mar 2017 16:15:11
Those are your hand-picked stats. I've provided a counter in the past which proved my point, Nancy.


19.) 05 Mar 2017 18:07:15
The three most widely accepted defensive metrics are cheery-picked?

Please, provide me your apology for Jay Bruce's elite defensive prowess.


20.) 20 Mar 2017 15:36:21
Not only does this trade not make sense, but it's also unnecessary. It doesn't help either team enough that they would do this trade and these are all good, well-known players that would be hard to part with.

Royals get: jp Crawford and jennimar Gomez

Phillies get: Kyle zimmer Jorge bonifacio and Peter O'Brien

Aye the best

1.) 20 Feb 2017 00:42:00
You are most certainly a Royals fan.


2.) 20 Feb 2017 01:51:30
Crawford is a big part of the rebuild in Philly. Not happening.


3.) 20 Feb 2017 02:29:11
How the royals are giving up there future.


4.) 20 Feb 2017 05:45:12
JP Crawford is one of the best prospects in baseball. None of the Royals mentioned are even top prospects.

KC area needs to test the water.


5.) 20 Feb 2017 18:49:07
This dude is trying so hard to prove he isn't a Royals fan. (Not sure why) . I'm a Mariners fan it shines through from time to time. Maybe try making trades that don't involve your squad.


6.) 20 Feb 2017 18:51:36
Also giving up your future for a better future is not giving up your future. I hope that makes sense.


7.) 21 Feb 2017 19:08:05
Maybe if the Royals add someone like Moose or Cain to the trade but even after that it still needs work.


 

 

08 Feb 2017 23:59:56
I haven't made good trades lately I hope I improve on this one

Royals trade Mike Moustakas, Chase Vallot Kyle Zimmer, Cory Tuops

Pirates trade Tyler Glasnow, Jameson Tallion

Aye the best

1.) 09 Feb 2017 01:08:12
Is this even serious?


2.) 09 Feb 2017 01:26:56
What's so bad about it?


3.) 09 Feb 2017 01:34:06
Everything


4.) 09 Feb 2017 01:54:43
Here is what is so bad about it.

Glasnow and Taillon, possibly the future Pirates top two starters for one year of Moustaukas and prospects that aren't even in the top 100.

Do you really think Glasnow who is in the top 25, would be traded for players not in the top 100?

Now if this trade was for Hunter Dozier, who isn't in the top 100 but number 9 at 3B and one of Kelvin Herrera, Danny Duffy, maybe even Salvador Perez, and if the Pirates added Josh Bell, which would definitely not happen, it would work in my opinion. But that trade, the Pirates hang up laughing that the GM Even tells Glasnow and Taillon, and they laugh too.


5.) 09 Feb 2017 03:10:10
Dolgin18 ok I see now.


6.) 09 Feb 2017 07:15:53
The Pirates are giving up 2 young, MLB ready starters for a guy in his last year before free agency. And a guy at a position they have covered.

There is zero reason to do this.


7.) 09 Feb 2017 07:16:03
Honest question, are you a Royals fan?


8.) 09 Feb 2017 22:37:24
Not to mention they have Jung Ho Kang and David Freese on the roster don't waste your time with ideas like this.


9.) 09 Feb 2017 23:37:31
I'm a bucs fan.


10.) 10 Feb 2017 00:19:46
Dude.


11.) 10 Feb 2017 02:29:35
Aye you are either a crummy liar or the world's crummiest fan.


 

 

08 Feb 2017 15:22:06
Royals sign Seth maness to a 1 year 5$ million dollar deal?

Aye the best

1.) 08 Feb 2017 17:03:05
Or a Minor League Deal.
