Horrible SS contracts of past and present collide - NYY @ TEX 7/27-7/30

[True Rangers Fan]

I love baseball fans... Phillies fans are pissing and moaning that they got "fleeced" and "robbed."

Thompson is going in the deal.

I just saw that and that pushed it over IMO. I'm glad we got rid of our obligation to Harrison.
I'm assuming JD is going to recoup some prospects for trading Gallardo very soon.

 

[saddles]

I've read your rhetoric. I'm bored with it and I'm not buying it.

That's okay with me.

 

[Justinkm83]

Well, when is his debut?

That's the only reason I can figure he did this. In a way, JD just drove up the price for Gallardo. Let's see what happens.

Only time will tell

Tomorrow possibly.

These guys have no idea what prospects they just got.

Love that Hamels is not a rental and that Houston apparently had a solid offer and Hamels turned them down. Because fuck the Astros!

 

[romeo212000]

Lol. MLB trade rumors just crashed.

I'm only upset about including Thompson & Alfaro in the deal, but Thompson is the part that put it into the potentially bad deal category for me

Williams' plate discipline will always be an issue, I liked him, but rather have Mazara

The only thing to like about this trade is we're ridding ourselves of Harry's contract and Hamels is gonna cost way under 10 mil per season for three years.

I was iffy until I saw Thompson was included. I'm totally against it now.

Same boat, if they got thompson then you can't give up Eickhoff and Asher

 

[romeo212000]

Martin is just fucking awful.

They were hoping for Mazara or Gallo. Since they didn't, they must have been fleeced.

At least not both.

well, that and the motherfucking World Series championship in 2017!!!!

Seriously, we probably just bumped their farm system up a couple rankings.

That's what I meant
