    He is right that the majority turn into nobodies. Musgrove, Hader, Houser, Sandoval, Rogers, Rojas, Laureano, Teoscar, Stassi, Kemp, Siri, Straw, and De La Cruz all ended up providing at least some value to the other team (i.e., not nobodies).

    The big thing is that a team doesn't want to make the Alvarez trade.

    I’ll give them Martin Maldonado. If they call right now, shipping will be free.

    Imagine Brown has deals in place but can't move forward because he's waiting for Crane/Mets. As he waits the deals he had falls apart because other teams doesn't want to wait so they make a trade with another team. Verlander trade falls apart. Astros stand pat. Brown gets the blame lol

    Teoscar isn't shabby either (sans this season)

    Operation 'Fleece' has gone accordingly

    Praying we don't get fleeced for Brown, Gilbert, or Chas. I'd only be willing to give up one of Melton or Arrighetti. Meyers and/or Julks can go as well.

    I know that they expanded the bases but rounding third has to be farther than the 2 inch line.

    I hope this gets done before 4 pm eastern time i have a conference call from 4 to 5.
    Although I will be checking on my phone.

    I guess I'm biased because I went to 2 of his World Series starts, and we lost both.
