It's especially a pretty good trade for Jose Quintana

Could be one of those deals that works out for both teams; Padres get a pretty good SP, keep their top 4 prospects and Preller is good at re-stocking the farm; the White Sox get 3 pretty well-regarded prospects and Wilson is decent and cheap.

The last chapter in this book is the Yankees signing Jordan Montgomery for $40 million more than they would have paid if they'd signed him last month, and I'm here for it

AJ Preller making a panic trade in the last week of Spring Training is a tradition.

I mean they did need the pitching, and they didn’t have the payroll to sign a big FA SP so I think that is a good move

I wouldn’t call it a panic trade at all. They’re trying to get to 89 wins and this helps them do that. The division is out of reach anyway

The Padres went from maybe the sixth best team in the NL to probably the sixth best team in the NL.

This is all conjecture but I feel like it's less of a panic move and more that a lot of teams were trying to get Cease on the cheap, then SP arms started exploding, and the price started going up. Chicago did very well here, I feel like San Diego didn't overpay, and the Yankees are left out in the cold. Win-win-win.

It's a decent trade for 2 years of a 3-4 WAR starting pitcher. It also means that the Soto trade may have provided the Padres with 3 of their 5 starting pitchers.

Couple that with having pitched through the pain last year, and what the gently caress Milwaukee?

more falafel please posted:Dollar dog Wednesdays though. The Sox should give out free tickets if you show proof of buying a plane/bus/train ticket to Chicago the same week. Just try to make whatever they can on concessions and merch sold at the ballpark.

The Yankees should probably just go into the season with what they have, see how their kids do and if they are in it at the deadline and are clearly a pitcher short, try to address it then.

KICK BAMA KICK posted:Might be more than a bench piece: Wow,i'm surprised. Not that they would re-acquire Duvall, but they must be hesitant about Kelenic. I understand platoons but it seems like the solution was already in house. Anyhow, Duvall will always go crazy about one month a year so totally worth it. I am a Braves fan but i'm about to go into my second year living in downtown Denver. Love watching baseball at Coors field, wish the Rockies could compete. Really makes me realize how good the Rays were as an organization. Lived in Central Florida over 20 years and i got used to watching them compete with barely any resources. I mean last year before they lost the entire rotation they probably had a real shot and were still better the the Yankees.
