FREE Ace *Available
In the "Moves That Will Never Happen" Department, there's an ace available that will be there for the having when players contracts are floated this month and teams can claim them by picking up their contracts. If the original team wants to let them go, they may. Like Vernon Wells years ago.
If Trevor Bauer isn't charged with any crimes, it doesn't sound like the Dodgers want a reunion either way.
Granted, Bauer for his part has opt outs after 2021 and 2022. But, given his current situation, if a team claimed you and is going to pay you and give you an opportunity going into 2022, would you opt out?
It's exactly the type of production the Mariners need to fall into their lap to be a contender. But it's exactly the type of move that this organization in particular would never make, and of course, nobody can blame them.
I'd be surprised if he doesn't get an opportunity somewhere, if he isn't charged though.

Fuck no on Bauers. Thats a big HELL NO from me! That's not how you treat women where I'm from. You boys can want him all you want too, and I won't judge. But there's a line for me.
Re: FREE Ace *Available
I have a feeling everybody agrees. At the same time, if he's not charged, he'll probably play again somewhere.Sexymarinersfan wrote: ↑Fri Aug 06, 2021 8:45 pmFuck no on Bauers.

Its possible I guess. But after seeing those photos and what he did, I doubt it.bpj wrote: ↑Fri Aug 06, 2021 8:53 pmI have a feeling everybody agrees.

I don't think you can do August waiver claims anymore with major league players. I know you can't do the waiver claim trades where a player is floated out there on waivers and then can be traded after every team passes on him. I know for sure that process isn't allowed anymore.

Did you also see photos of the texts where she is apparently admitting it was consensual, but went too far? He will get off because they will use that text to basically put her on trial and he has money and attorneys.Sexymarinersfan wrote: ↑Fri Aug 06, 2021 8:55 pmIts possible I guess.

I saw everything. And again, feel the way you want too about the matter, I don't fucking care. I've got my line on the topic and have made my decision on the matter.Michael K. wrote: ↑Fri Aug 06, 2021 9:22 pmDid you also see photos of the texts where she is apparently admitting it was consensual, but went too far?

What about what I said made you think I don't agree? Because I said his lawyers will manipulate that text, put her on trial and she either won't want to go through it or won't have the money means I think he gets off because he is right? Or are you just looking for reasons now because I had the trade and think JK has an ego that far out performs his play?
Re: FREE Ace *Available
My understanding is you can't ask for prospects back, but if rhe players team wants to let the claiming team have that player by taking over the contract, that is what is still allowed.GL_Storm wrote: ↑Fri Aug 06, 2021 9:18 pmI don't think you can do August waiver claims anymore with major league players.

The Dodgers have a high chance of trying to float that $75M if they don't want him back anyways. Nobody will trade for him.

Re: FREE Ace *Available
As good as he is, is having a completely unlikable player on your favorite team worth it? One would hope not. Pass on him even if he cost 20 million.bpj wrote: ↑Fri Aug 06, 2021 8:53 pmI have a feeling everybody agrees.

Thankfully Earl Thomas kept his dickheadishness mostly hidden until end.
