NickCave 194 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Only thing I've heard regarding the Royals is a potential Brett Anderson swap, though I'm not sure if they've been in touch with Oaktown. Link to post Share on other sites
The Machine 210 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Rany Jazayerli @jazayerli 1m You're kidding, right? Please tell me you're kidding. RT @JeffPassan: Sources: Royals sign LHP Jason Vargas. Was seeking a three-year deal. Haha. I hope that's it. Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Eric Hosmer for Mark Prior. "When you can get a guy with his track record, a number 2 overall pick in the draft, you jump at the opportunity." VERY FUNNY Rany Jazayerli @jazayerli 1m You're kidding, right? Please tell me you're kidding. RT @JeffPassan: Sources: Royals sign LHP Jason Vargas. Was seeking a three-year deal. Haha. I hope that's it. it would be so typical. Link to post Share on other sites

SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 so it's 8 mil a year. what a goddamn waste of money. Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 seriously its like they have no goddamn idea what they are doing. Link to post Share on other sites

The Machine 210 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Seriously though, what do you think they saw in Jason Vargas that made them think, "We gotta lock this guy up for four years?" Link to post Share on other sites
NickCave 194 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Seriously though, what do you think they saw in Jason Vargas that made them think, "We gotta lock this guy up for four years?" Maybe his agent asked really nicely? Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted November 21, 2013 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Yeah, but the royals have money to burn, who cares if they over pay a guy like Vargas, they'll still have plenty of bankroll to make other moves. *chortle* Link to post Share on other sites

NickCave 194 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Cardinals give Jhonny Peralta 4/53. Good/Bad/Fair? (Steamer has him at +2.7 WAR if he gets 600PA. He was +3.7/448 +2.5/585 +4.9/576 over the last three years.) Link to post Share on other sites
mrdannyg 274 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Seems solid to me. Maybe not a bargain, but considering where they're at on the win curve and how significant an upgrade he represents, they're getting their money's worth and plenty more. Link to post Share on other sites

mrdannyg 274 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 I AGREE EXCEPT FOR THE WEIRD CONTRADICTION. Predictions for Cano. Team/Years/AAV I suck, sorry. You know what I meant. Cano - 90% he goes to the Yankees. 9% to the Dodgers. 1% the Angels sign him for 12 years/$305 million and three baseball writers die of exhaustion from laughing for days. I think Tim is pretty solid on the 8 years, though I'd guess closer to $180M. I could see 10 years in the $210M range. Link to post Share on other sites
timwakefield 68 Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Sox sign AJ Pierzynski for 1 year, $8.25m. Pretty excellent move. It's a super small contract, we have David Ross and Ryan Lavarnway to back him up, and it's a bridge to our somewhat highly touted catching prospects Christian Vazquez and Blake Swihart who, everybody says, could each be ready in as little as a year. Now we just need to re-sign Napoli, get a CFer (I would actually be extremely happy if we can get Ellsbury for 6 years or less, but it doesn't seem to be in the works), and we're pretty well set.
