    He's turned down Yankees, Mets, Astros. I assume he would turn down Red Sox.
    Looks like he wants Padres, Dodgers, Giants and that's it.

    I prefer a FO that plays it close to the vest. Most info actually comes from the players that have to be told or loose lips within the organization. It leads to unnecessary hard feelings.

    Pettitte and Clemens were FA signings, not trades, and Pettitte was expected to sign here that offseason because he wanted to move back to his hometown. Clemens was a surprise though, he came out of retirement to sign here and play with Andy.

    Anybody that loves California that much deserves California and all that comes with it.

    I don't think of that at all. I think of something closer to a latrine.

    It’s down to Red Sox, Padres, Giants, Dodgers.

    And the winner is…..

    I don't want him going to Boston. If we face him, rather do it in the WS. Don't want Sale and Mad Max 1-2 combo if we face Boston in Playoffs.

    I would want giants out of those teams listed

    Boston would be my hope. He puts everyone over while I still feel Boston’s rotation is still behind the Astros.

    Braves beat the Mets today and are only 4 back. They're not trading Morton.

    The NL East is the definition of mediocracy.

    Sale and Mad Max would be a hard combo. I'm assuming Sale will be solid after his final two rehab starts.

    Best case scenario is he goes to the team in the NL West that loses the Wild Card game.

    DC is special. Everybody gets their own short bus.
