Re: Breaking: Stanton expects them to be active in trade market

Yeah and the attachment to "favorites" is your problem lol. It gets in the way of what it actually means to build a championship roster. Which means that prospects will have to be traded. The Castillo trade has been magnificent for the Mariners. I didn't like that trade, get the fuck over it and qu...

Re: Breaking: Stanton expects them to be active in trade market

Who gives a shit what someone hits during spring training. He's a career .775 OPS guy. He's not a game changing bat. And what were you expecting for a 19 year old outfielder who scouts were starting to grow weary on in A ball? Juan Soto? If Polanco hit to his career .775 OPS as you state... that wo...

Re: Breaking: Stanton expects them to be active in trade market

Both those events were completely unpredictable but does highlight that prospects don't come with guarantees. Either do MLB players as we know too well but they are definitely less risky given their track records. For the record, I am on record on this forum stating that I didn't really want Polanc...

Re: Breaking: Stanton expects them to be active in trade market

He was a top 5 prospect at the time and climbing. I’m just pointing out that Dipoto is willing to trade good prospects for mediocre bats, pretty much the exact scenario that Vogelbomb said he didn’t want to have happen. If you can’t see why that was relevant in my reply to vogelbomb, then I’m sorry...

Re: Breaking: Stanton expects them to be active in trade market

He traded Gabriel Gonzales for Polanco… And? Are you under the impression that Gabriel Gonzales is anything special? He's a top 100 prospect in MLB Pipeline which most don't agree with... most say he'd be 8-11 in the M's farm. I don't know why you are so obsessed with prospects constantly. He was a...

Re: Breaking: Stanton expects them to be active in trade market

Well I trust in Dipoto that he's not going to deal our best guys. I swear if he sells Ford, Young, Locklear, Emerson, Celesten, Montes or Farmelo for some mediocre 1.5 yr dude that's essentially a Canzone or Polanco type, I'm going to puke He traded Gabriel Gonzales for Polanco… And? Are you under ...

Re: Breaking: Stanton expects them to be active in trade market

Also I'm not sure what that article says that's any different than the BS we've been fed for years. He basically just repeated what Dipoto and Hollander always say... "we have a process, we like the process... we don't care if you're upset that we haven't increased payroll." On what planet does anyt...

Career 81 OPS+ Wasn't bad last season but horrid this season in a fairly small sample...
What's crazy is 0.1 WAR despite a 24 OPS+ lol.
