it'd take a heck of a lot more than Oliver and Lind there Kanersen.
They have no use for Lind, so he'd be dead weight.
Oliver + Stilson + another good spec might be a start...

You're definitely right about AA's focus Bartron. He has definitely landed a lot of great arms because of going after them early, and picked up a few decent bats later on. And he has started going...
bingo. Alberta knows what is the most important. The quality of the hitter far exceeds the way that they hit. Berkman will not outperform Edwin in 2013, so there is no point in putting him between...
Thanks, I had forgotten about him getting moved. Hard to keep track with all the player movement this offseason!
Kid sounds a bit like Adam Loewen back in the day. I'd be down. Sign him, and in typical AA fashion let the kid play both positions or something haha. He took a chance with Alford pulling a Bo...
My favourite one yet! Cheers brother, and Merry Christmas to all you PSD beauties!
I'd be thrilled if Snider becomes a star! But preferably not with anyone in the AL East.
One thing that should not be overlooked is the fact that EVERY system has a number of guys deep in the minors that they are "dreaming" on.
Lots of people make the argument that our system will...
I think Jacque Jones is a good comp too actually. But perhaps on the lower end. Jones had a great year as a 27 year old, but I'm not sure Sierra is as strong with the bat. He could make a decent...
Doesn't excite me as much as some of you folks. Could be a useful piece if we're content with Lind as our DH. Hopefully there is something bigger in store for our DH, unless Lindy gets his groove...
Excellent insight Twitchy. This is exactly why I lose my mind every time i see someone proposing a line-up with Lind hitting between Jose and EE. Even line-ups where another lefty stick is brought in...
haha. Bat Jose 3rd. period. I want him up in the first inning of every game. Unless Arencibia raises his game to a whole new level this year, I can't see him hitting higher than 6th. Strikes out WAY...
If we're looking for another bullpen piece, I'd consider a few names.
Francisco Rodriguez
Jose Valverde
Brian Wilson
Matt Lindstrom
and Lefty Mike Gonzalez
To me, if AA were to bring...
If any of the Nelson Cruz comparisons to Sierra start to take shape, I'd be pretty happy! Hopefully he has a big year in AAA and we can either deal him next offseason, or give him a shot at DHing vs....
.. Just wondering.. would that make him eligible to play for Canada in the WBC then, if he chose to? HE obviously identifies himself as an American... but...Wouldn't that be a nice addition to the...
I wonder if Moises Sierra will continue on his development path this year, of if he is what he is right now. He has always shown good power potential but only really started tapping into it this...
I once saw Adam Lind picking up Peanut shells from in the stands. He then started licking the inside of the shell and began begging the baseball gods to have him come down with an allergic reaction...
Forget the knuckleball or the spitball.. Let's get RA throwing the Boogie-ball! Pick away my friend.
Thole gave up a lot of passed balls, but not because he's poor defensively. It's because he ha to catch a knuckleball that mots hitters couldn't hope to get a piece of.. It's hard to know whether to...
Love the idea of real grass at the dome! Why not right? Make the place more inviting and kind of give it a more authentic feel.
Based on your lay-out, I DEFINITELY want Dickey in the first spot.
He'd be pitching 5 games at home (dome) and another in the Trop (dome) versus a rays team he one-hit last year there. This way,...
I'd only move Happ because he doesn't seem like a "team first" guy, and pouted when he wasn't starting year. I think that Lincoln (with his past experience starting) would be an even better swing...
I wonder if here is any chance we could land Trumbo from the Angels.
There is talk that they will listen on him, preferring to trade wells/bourjos/morales. The Marlins seem interested in moving...
Unless the DH is cheap! Darin Ruff = Cheap. Matt Adams = Cheap. Might cost some prospects, (or maybe we could find a way to include some money (Happ, Lind) and we could get a useful DH!
I too love the idea of Ruf! the guy raked last year. I don't know if he is as realistic an option at this point because the Phils will likely want a decent prospect or two, and I'm hoping we're done...
