2014 Offseason Plans Thread

What does it mean for Moreland? How does JD plan on getting a C, DH, and COFer?
I just saw 1B as the least worrysome out of the major concerns. Please tell me this doesn't mean Gentry and Soto start now.

It does take out the two guys we had to trade. Looks like the CARDS are gone to the wayside.

Does anyone think we might have just paid this much for a DH? Moreland is much better in the field. With a righty on the mound Mitch plays 1st and Fielder DH's?

 

[terpsfball09]

Confirmed to me that this is true. I called my friend and he said that no one knew anything about it at all and this was mostly JD. They were completely shocked. He said that last week they talked about a kinsler for scherzer plus trade but that fell through but never heard about anything since then. But yes, this is actually happening.

Yeah, I don't like that as well.

 

[Tacobenboy]

Well?

Well for three years we've been waiting for JD to pull the trigger on a huge deal and here it finally is. Not sure how to feel about this one but here it is.

 

[terpsfball09]

So now do we trade mitch? No way he is of any value to hardly anyone without being packaged up with prospects

Go's to show what we experts know. lol

 

[Justinkm83]

I would think JD has something more up his sleeve. I hope this isn't all he's going to do this off-season because almost all of the ideas to improve the team that we've discussed on this board have been better than this. That's if he stands pat after this deal.


@Rev - There's our #3 hitter that neither of us saw coming.

 

[DT LUNA]

Well that's one power bat. Now where do we find another one. Looks like a FA if we get one.

 

[Justinkm83]

Another thing....we just traded our lead off hitter.

 

[terpsfball09]

Got a text that my friend THINKS that the tigers are sending someone else the rangers way along with it. Not sure if its true or who it is. Just throwing it out there. Could be a small time prospect for all i know

That's good news. I was hoping we didn't send Mitch. Maybe the plan is to play Mitch in the field against righties w/ Fielder DHing.

This deal will be discussed for a while.

 

[fordman84]

Everyone was tired of the little moves, gotta take risks and move big parts for big moves. Not going to find many willing to take a handful of minor leaguers for a major player like Prince.

Heard we are getting money back

 

[RevSader]

What the fuck?!?!!' This is so unexpected!!!!!

 

[Justinkm83]

Could Choo be coming to TX? We need a COF and lead off hitter now.

That would mean were eating a bigger piece of this contract. I'm anxious to hear the details...

 

[donaldson79]

I am as well. Just heard about it. Not really saving any money here. Not sure we are still in on McCann.

Everybody slow down. If the Tigers eat some contract, our budget may be fine.

And the RBI this guy delivers will be tremendous. He's had over 100 for 6 outta the last 7 years.

With Profar at 2nd and Prince at first, I think we'll get more RBI between the two than with Moreland/Kins.

Leave it to Rev. love it! LMAO
