sabremike Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 #yearofthemets . Seriously, just wow. Best part was Keith ripping on how bad the Braves bullpen was : "At this point I'd just turn in my season tickets" after the second run was walked in.

elizium Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Sabathia was before the trade deadline, right? Â Doyle is bumped down because he had a 10.00 ERA and lost both games in the playoffs and cost the Tigers John Smoltz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Sabathia was in '08 for Milwaukee.  Some impact pre & deadline Yankees moves:  David Cone- 1995 Cecil Fielder, Graeme Lloyd, Charlie Hayes- 1996 Chad Curtis- 1997 David Justice- 2000 Eric Hinske, Jerry Hairston, Jr.- 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elizium Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 David Cone was such a great mercenary in the early 90s. He had the perfect mound disposition for it too, he just looked like a killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice Guy Eddie Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Pretty great commentator now too, from the few Yankee games I've watched at least I love when Cone is announcing games. I think he'd a make a great pitching coach and want him as the next one for the Yankees after Rothschild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabe Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Unit and Beltran also come to mind in recent history.Beltran wasn't traded at the deadline - he was over a month before.Unit is a good call though I hate giving him credit for that season since he faked an injury and tanked games to get out of Seattle, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doyle is bumped down because he had a 10.00 ERA and lost both games in the playoffs and cost the Tigers John Smoltz. Without Alexander, they never even reach the playoffs. Tigers were 11-0 in his starts and never trailed in any of them. Plus, people forget that Smoltz was terrible in the minors for Detroit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 A lot of people love to use that trade as their shitty example of a bad trade line deal since they just think in the long term (ie: Smoltz = HOF) but yeah Alexander was fucking outstanding that year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cristobal Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Unit and Beltran also come to mind in recent history.Beltran wasn't traded at the deadline - he was over a month before.

Joe Lucia Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 No, I meant the Astros. I consider a "deadline trade" anything in June or July. If you're going to start arbitrarily drawing lines at post-ASB, last week of July, you're missing the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're going to start arbitrarily drawing lines at post-ASB, last week of July, you're missing the point.He was traded nearly 6 weeks before the deadline. That's not a "deadline deal". Semantics aside, it was a helluva pickup for Houston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have approximately zero interest in arguing when a trade is or isn't a deadline trade, but how is saying "June and July" NOT arbitrary? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
