JD Martinez pulled mid-game

Announcers speculating it is due to a trade. It came out out of nowhere in the 6th inning. Guy who replaced him didn't even have a glove ready, and it held up the game.

Looks like we may have more big trade news tonight.

Thought I read he was already traded

Can't get into my old account right now. Fordman is going to change my email on it so I can get back into it.

Gotcha... Took me a second to realize it was you... Then saw your avator.... I was like, I knew it!

 

[richig07]

Ah... whoops. False alarm.

 

[broncosmitty]

I was wondering why they hadn't mentioned the trade during this shitty Indians game I'm watching.


Sell. Sell. Sell.

Yeah, turned out to be a false alarm. Wouldn't have been the first time Tiger fans have seen this. I remember Austin Jackson getting pulled mid-game on July 31, 2014 when Dombrowski made the last-minute deal to get David Price.

Wonder if Verlander or anyone else will be traded as well

Desperate enough team perhaps

I think the Diamondbacks have a lesser farm system than the Tigers ... I would not have pulled the trigger on this trade. JD Martinez is an awesome player ... I wish him the best of luck!!

Called it.

With all the bad money they spent, you would think JD is the one guy they should have invested in

Reminds me a bit of the Yankees letting Cano walk because they had so many bad deals on the books

Yankees have reloaded nicely ... The Yankees and the White Sox have bright futures.

So far so good, the value of huge BP arms for a contending team is amazing

Brad Hand from the Pods is rumored to be bringing back a Miller/Chapman type package
