where would Bruce play? Springer/Tucker/Rasmus/Gomez is your 4 out there. I guess if you're saying we're moving Tucker for 2 years of Bruce. Would be surprised
Well, don't know whether to consider it fortunate or unfortunate, but he's scheduled to start Monday, so we're gonna miss him in Dallas next week. In undoubtedly fortunate news though, the Angels are about to face Kersh and Greinke in Chavez Ravine, thanks to Kershaw getting scratched a couple nights ago.

Glad we miss him on the road, their other starters aren't nearly as good I just want him right here, right there on that mound at MMP, so we can boo the crap out of him :grin:
Reminds me of some of the trades that didn't happen for Morey and the Rockets that maybe we were upset about in the beginning; they actually worked out better in the long run. I'm thinking this could be one of those times.
Richard Justice on MLB Network: "Aroldis Chapman is in play" Also mentions that Tyson Ross/Andrew Cashner and Craig Kimbrel are in consideration
Gonna be an interesting next hour. Would guess whatever is gonna happen is already agreed to and pending medicals
2B:Altuve CF:Gomez RF:Springer SS:Correa LF:Bruce DH:Tucker(really wish he could play first) 3B:Lowrie C: Castro 1B:Valbuena/Marwin
So do the Blue jays have anything left in the farm? I admire their all-in-now mode, but man if it backfires they could be in for another several years of mediocrity.
So Rasmus and Gattis don't play? Seems like a waste to acquire a guy that would result in those 2 sitting down most of the time.
Don't know much about Bruce other than watching him off and on on espn If they thought he could play 1B, then he would make sense If they don't think he could, then very unlikely he would be a target
I would stick to Tucker as a DH. He is going to improve. Already becoming a much better hitter as compared to early in the season. Tucker is a defensive liability so it makes sense. Gattis, can DH against lefties.
