    Joe Kelly is fine. Whatever it’s not much money.

    What a slap to the face, this could be ugly if he's not good, people haven't forgotten him.

    Santana and Jake Bauers to Cleveland, EE and a comp pick to Seattle, Yandy Diaz to Tampa.

    Steve Phillips said this opens up the window for a big deal he’s hearing that would send Joc, Verdugo and Stripling to Cleveland for Kluber.

    Does this mean a Kluber trade is closer?

    Still think Joe Kelly is a huge douche, but he definitely helps the bullpen a lot

    Phillips just said that he is hearing that it does, but with our FO we know everything goes at a snails pace.

    I’ll add, Steve Phillips is hearing that teams feel the Dodgers are in the lead for Harper and Realmuto, while also pushing hard to acquire Kluber. I now won’t be shocked if the Dodgers land none of them, but Phillips has nailed a couple of deals in the last 6 months.

    Harper is going to go where the money is, so the Dodgers can have him if they shell out the cash. As for JT and Kluber, I don't think MGT wants to give up that much young assets. I honestly would rather they spend the prospects on Kluber and run with Barnes behind the plate.

    I'd just grab Wilson or some other FA catcher. They'll be stop gaps for Ruiz and Smith anyway

    Don't care at all honestly. I'm still salty over plunking Hanley in the ribs, but I care about winning championships more than anything. And besides, he and Hanley hashed it out during their time in Boston, so we shouldn't care.

    If he sucks tho...

    I like Verdugo because his ability to make contact is a breath of fresh air. He's a high floor prospect. But he's easily replaceable in terms of net WAR and if you sign Harper and trade for Kluber and/or Realmuto, etc...we probably won't miss him.

    I like Ruiz and Smith, but they're a few years away from being effective big leaguers. If one of them goes in a trade for a player that helps us for the next 3 seasons, I honestly don't care.

    Yeah, Kelly probably cost us a trip to the WS in '13 but hey, we would have faced the Red Sox and we all know how that would have turned out. But either way, Hanley forgave him so who TF are we to say anything? Fuck it, I'm glad we have him.

    Exactly. This is about now. We have great scouting, and we're always tops in farm systems. The NL West sucks. Take advantage. Getting to a World Series is hard, and winning one as we've noticed is just as difficult. Stop fucking around and go for broke.

    Cody, Caleb and Max think you're a misogynistic prick.
