The Mariners have the best chips to trade for him? correct?

Mariners have stated they do not want to give up Walker in any deal. But as of now, they seem to be the only ones offering what the Rays are asking.

Just saw David Price's agent, Bo McKinnis, in lobby. Asked if Price would consider extension with #Mariners. Said no. MORE

Ken Rosenthal‏@Ken_Rosenthal
Asked McKinnis if Price would consider extensions with other teams. Said yes. Asked which clubs. He declined to answer.

That's pretty brutal. If I were a Seattle fan, I'd say fuck that guy.

 

[aFIGurANT]

I'm not sure that Price even makes the Ms that team that can hold down a lead in the West, tbh. You basically turn into the Phillies except Price isn't coming off his greatest year last year with his injury. Seems like a big gamble but maybe the prospects they give up are considered to be flukey on their possible returns.

Corey Hart exepected to decide where he's going to strike out 170 times soon.

A few weeks ago, I put my coworker, who is a big Brewers fan, onto GAF and MLB-GAF in particular, and he's been lurking since then. Today, he burst into my cube yelling "How do I get an account on GAF? People are talking shit about Corey Hart!"

This year's winter meetings has been boring as hell so far, but that's not surprising considering how crazy last week was. Still, where the hell are the crazy trades?!

Mariners trade Cano for Kemp.

Would that be crazy enough?

Don't worry, the Council will soon embrace Brandon Phillips.

Excellent piece by The Daily News on Curtis Granderson

Spoiler

Do we call him the Grandy Man, or come up with a nickname of our own?

The Mets are willing to give up their top draft pick (a third rounder) to sign free-agent Stephen Drew, but they’ll need to free up payroll to be able to sign him

... has his market dried up? Mets were supposed to have no shot at him.

12:42 pm: The Mets are firmly asking the Brewers for RHP Tyler Thornburg in a deal for Davis (McCalvy, Dec. 11).

I find this deal acceptable.

Must be weird for Mets fans to actually have a professional outfielder on their team.


The Beltran they got always had knee problems.

Maybe they can bring back Benny Agbayani?

 

[Macattk15]

Completely fine with Price saying he wouldn't sign an extension here.

I hope that completely stops Jack from doing anything with him.

Just fucking sign one of Garza/Colon/Ubaldo hell even Ervin Santana and I'd be ok. Keep Walker and Zunino!

 

[McNei1y]

Hey,

Francouer was cool.

 

[Macattk15]

Contracts are just getting retarded.

Mike Trout is going to sign for a billion dollars.

 

[Malvingt2]

I don't think The Rays are going to be happy with Price agent.

Lol that was a nasty pitch and I don't hold it against him
It also continues to eat him to this day !

That would be amazing.

Why would you say such a thing? I thought we were friends.

Tough night after that.

 

[CheezyMac88]

The Yankees are also interested, but he (Johan Santana) would have to shave his facial hair to join their organization (Marchand, Dec. 11)

Does the Yankees has some kind of no facial hair policy?

 

[Sanjuro]

If Buchholz is dealt, I would absolutely take the gamble on Johan. Would work out perfectly.

 

[McNei1y]

Nats may just have acquired Jerry Blevins from Oakland for Billy Burns.

 

[ConradCervantes]

Some outdated grooming policy. Steinbrenner probably could only grow peach fuzz his entire life, so he made his players suffer with him.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

It's 2013. Yanks should let players have facial hair.

Each Derek Jeter gift basket comes with a personal trimmer kit. Fact.

No facial hair under the lips.

corey hart is headed for #mariners, according to sources. 1 year deal. will likely bat behind cano.

Nice pickup.

 

[BFIB]

I never really understood the facial hair thing.

On the other hand, it cost the Yanks Brian Wilson, so maybe its a good thing.

Not bad at all.

Ned told Kemp's agent today that they are not trading Kemp.

Its about being professional and not looking like an outcast from duck dynasty.

Wasn't there a story about how Jeter and other Yankees hated Kenny Lofton because he wasn't professional in attire and demeanor when coming to the locker room?

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Kershaw trade imminent!

Mariners can still go after Choo. This actually makes things things easier for them.

 

[Flunkie]

Mariners ink Corey Hart.

 

[Macattk15]

Fucking yes. We got Corey Hart.

Smoak can play 1B against RHP, Hart can play 1B against LHP ... and RF or something when not playing FB.

We really need some more right handed bats not named Nelson Cruz. I like this move.

Oh ... so Choo. hmm

 

[darkside31337]

Mariners ink Corey Hart.

32 years old, missed an entire year with an injury and going from a hitters park to the worst park in baseball. I'm sure it'll work out well.

Still I wish the Rays signed him. Hard to find anybody on the cheap in this market.

 

[BFIB]

Hart will do what he does. He'll play a decent 1B, not walk, strike out a ton, but do lots of damage when he connects.

Sounds like sour fucking grapes.

Safeco was neutral last season. Mariners were 6th in all of baseball in the amount of HRs hit at home.

Apparently his video he put together of himself resuming baseball activities was impressive.
