Ned?
What about him?! Let Cueto's arm fall off.

Seems a bit harsh.

But how willing do you think Detroit was to trade Price within the Central?

dunno. logically, they should have preferred to do so, since they could not only acquire useful players/prospects for themselves, but also deprive a division rival of those same players. but i don't know if their mgmt was logical.

Norris was their #1 prospect, boyd appears to be SP material, and the other guy I couldnt find much on. I'd say price was more expensive but it's hard to say how much.

that's Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).

I mean, if he's going to pitch like dog crap the rest of the season, it's not our problem to save this rent a players arm. Obviously, we know he's capable of more, but we haven't really seen it yet.

He has given up 6 HRs in 9.0 Innings vs Balt this year.

literally everyone thought he was the ace this staff was lacking.

cueto is not that good. and he may be injured.

Quote from: sys on July 20, 2015, 10:14:18 PM

career he's a 3.81 fip pitcher, all in the national league. he's good, but not "ace" good. he doesn't have the career length, but medlen, for example, posted better numbers during the short time that he was healthy.

a) it'd be nice to win this game, and b) it'd be nice to get him pitching well before the playoffs. so, leaving him out for his arm to fall off would be Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!).

Another one. Enough is enough. Get him out of there.

i think you're right. norris seems better than anyone the royals gave up.

At least his last 3 HRs have been solo shots

Cain's left leg takes such a beating, he is a foul ball machine.

I can't believe they are sending him back out there.

joda · « **Reply #46964 on:** September 13, 2015, 08:36:29 PM »

I'm not going back and looking for it, but I wasn't team #getcueto. I was just fine with the trade because I didn't think we gave up much for him.

420seriouscat69 · « **Reply #46965 on:** September 13, 2015, 08:36:41 PM »

Ms. Wacky: "Are they putting him back in?! Wtf?!"

Rage Against the McKee · « **Reply #46966 on:** September 13, 2015, 08:38:31 PM »

I wanted Hamels because he had an extra year on his contract to trade next year for prospects.

We only would have had to pay for less than half a season of it.

i'd much rather be listening to schilling talking about cueto's problems than these idiots, none of whom have ever pitched (maybe the woman has, don't know, don't care, different game).

he'd be good, if he'd be honest. i'm not sure he's willing to publicly criticize players.
