15 minutes until the Choo meeting?
Wulp

 

[jta4437]

There are reports out that he will be ready for Spring training

There were also reports that Colby Lewis would pitch last year

 

[terpsfball09]

I wonder why a meeting would be called if we supposedly offered last night. Maybe Choo's rep called it?

Probably right on the rep calling it

1) Boras wants more money
2) we may be offering better terms
3) it's a deal.
4) it's off.
5) we may never know

Exactly

 

[jta4437]

Are we sure that Wash would even bat Choo leadoff?

Its where he makes most sense based on the players we have, Martin in the lead-off spot is a bad thing

Jeff Baker looking like he is headed to the giants. At least one LSB poster got super pissy when I said he was a lifetime spare part.

The crux of what I said was about Wash.

I really hate that bastard.

pisses me off that we dont even get a 1st round pick for garza. We literally get nothing from him

He would have taken that QO...And fuck him for that.

Yeah same here. It was awful seeing us trade a top tier prospect in Mike Olt for a half year rental that gave virtually no help to us

Why are people still so high on Olt? He pretty much showed his value the last two years.

From ESPN's blog page:

Richard Durrett

#Rangers Jon Daniels said he's had a few conversations with Adam Katz, Cruz's agent, and will continue to talk.

I feel like that would be an ideal situation. Moreso than getting kemp. Get two great hitters and see the offers you can get for moreland and martin.

Who plays CF? surely not Choo, he's pretty terrible in CF, averagish in LF... They're keeping Martin

I don't know about how he will do as a player, but he had a lot of value in the trade market. He was a piece we could have used in a more high profile trade

Choo will most likely play LF- the spot is open and Martin is a better defender and better equipped for CF

Didn't rios play center before? Not saying I'm for it

Brewers are reportedly now in the market for a 1B after losing Hart. If we somehow land both Choo and Cruz, I wonder what they might give us for Moreland.
