Discussion Question

We should pull the trigger on the LaPorta+ for Sabathia trade because

A) We probably won’t be able to resign Bennie Goldmedal in the offseason and this is our best shot at the playoffs for a while, at least

B) LaPorta is blocked by position in our system

C) If you take out Sabathia’s awful start to the season and normalize his stats for park and defense, he becomes not just a very good starter, but an elite one

D) “P” will finally have someone to make late-night runs to Taco Bell with him for 99 cent Cheesy Bean and Rice Burritos

E) All of the above, plus sometimes in life you have to take chances. Not trading for Sabathia is the safe & boring way out.

by somethingvague on Jul 6, 2008 12:13 PM CDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

It sounds like Melvin put his best offer out there.

The trigger has been pulled, unless you’re asking if Melvin should knuckle under and give up a 2nd AA prospect along with LaPorta, which is reportedly what the Indians are looking for. SI put a not so informative rumors post up a couple of hours back that listed 4 other teams, the Cubs included, who were pursuing Sabathia, that more or less read like a direct leak from Cleveland’s front office.

funny enough...

i am hoping they dont trade laporta; cause i had him sign my all-time brewers jersey at spring training. oops.

go get em' seth!

A) True, I still have hope that the team does well this year and Ben is tempted by a short term deal

B) Not really, he is very young.

C) Yeah

D) Picture playing the Nationals and Dmitri Young squibs one to Prince. CC goes to cover first and the three converge. It would be close to a half ton.

E) LaPorta could also be part of a trade that would be better later, but yeah, with the limitations of a 25 man roster there is an opportunity

Indians fan checking in here…you all hearing any more updates on your end?

by APV on Jul 6, 2008 1:07 PM CDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Just the TV guys saying that if the deal doesn’t get done so that he can start Teusday, the value would diminish.

by ol Pete on Jul 6, 2008 1:08 PM CDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I think the Indians know this as well and will move him before then. I think by the end of the day today a deal will be made. I hope CC ends up in Milwaukee, but I’m sure phone calls today will determine that.

I think that he's going to be successful

not only because of the fact that he’s switching leagues and he’ll have the “never seen before” benefit of the doubt, and the fact that he’s due for quite a few homers…

Miguel Tejada is a JOKE: 10 HR, .319 OBP

J.J. Hardy is third in the MLB in OPS among shortstops, behind Hanley Ramirez and barely behind Jose Reyes. I was just going to comment that he could make it behind Guzman, but not when Tejada is wasting a spot. And they have Berkman- it’s not like the Astros need someone. It’s also a joke that Pat Burrel isn’t on the roster.

And neck size to baby eating ratio.

Reaffirming this point

Tejada: .282 .319 .437 .756 10 HR

A lot of players have bonuses based on ASG appearances

You’d think it would make Pat want to return to Philly less although maybe he doesn’t want to in the first place.

Sabathia threads

After the game, I’m going to make a new Sabathia fanshot and frontpage it, so we can move all trade rumors discussion there; it’s currently spread out over two threads (both started by me—my bad) and things are getting linked twice and even thrice.

He's extremely quick and good.

by battlekow on Jul 6, 2008 2:33 PM CDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

A lot going on

Sabathia trade rumors, Braun all star starter, JJ’s hit streak, Hart’s final player vote, the Crew sneaking closer to both the division lead and the wild card berth. So much for July being a slow sports month.

You have no concept

The certainty that Hart will lose at bats is offset by the uncertainty that the pitchers spot would come up where we needed an actual hitter at the plate. Clearly it is better to prepare for the uncertain, unlikely to happen event rather than the certain.

This is the man that was worried about the triple play earlier this year.

Anybody catch the post-game press conference with Yost?

He was talking about J.J. Hardy’s hot streak and said,

“I don’t even think Babe Ruth had a stretch like this.”

Oh, dear goodness. We’re all slowly becoming bumbling homers.

by ryan braun on Jul 6, 2008 7:24 PM CDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

didn't

but yesterday he said something like he didn’t know that JJ had a hitting streak. Then he sort of contradicted himself and said he was scared of a double play because of the one that had happened earlier in the game.

I think he’s sort of accomplished what George Bush did. People are numb to the content of his comments and just accept that he’s not going anywhere.

by ol Pete on Jul 6, 2008 10:51 PM CDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

By the way

From the AP recap:

Milwaukee last had nine doubles and 12 extra-base hits in an extra-inning game against Philadelphia on May 15, 2001.
That’s actually the team record; the nine doubles ties the team record too, accomplished four times.

He's extremely quick and good.
