I didnt realize how bad he was in July.

[rok]

Wasn't he hurt?

[funkster]

No clue.  I haven't been paying attention at all.

Dodgers supposedly trying to get Trea Turner and Scherzer.

[VanSlawAndCottoCheese]

I guess when Seager returns, Turner plays 2nd base?

[funkster]

Schwarber to the Red Sox.  What a crazy deadline.  Guess Washington is currently on our plan.

Seems like a pointless transaction for Cleveland. Man, I'm glad we won that World Series.

Soler to Braves. Hmmm



Dodgers were able to acquire 2 of the best players in baseball. Yeah, that org sucks. Just wait for that organization to sell off its remaining core.



Oh yeah, guess if you have a strong scouting and development skills coupled with deep pockets, you can continuously prune off dead shoots e.g. Joc Pederson, with younger, better players while acquiring veterans via trades and free agency

Not too late to change course and go with the Steamers.

Lester with 5 H, 5 ER, 2 BB, 1 HR through 1 inning in his first start with St. Louis.

Also the HR was off the bat of Jorge Soler.

Lester’s still a Cub at heart

Sounds like a great idea.
