Cristobal Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I'll only like this deal if Johnson picks up the whole swearing gimmick Balfour had going. Losing the whole "gesticulating wildly to One" thing will be a big blow to the fan experience at A's games, and lets be frank, that can't afford too many hits.

paragon11 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Jon Heyman reported on Twitter that the Red Sox signed A.J. Pierzynski to a contract. Looks like Saltalamacchia may have a 3 year contract in hand from Miami as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LethalStriker Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Just when you didn't think that the Red Sox could get any more annoying they go ahead and sign Pierzynski. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirFozzie Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Not a fan of the signing, one of the big things was likeability/clubhouse, and we get a guy who's the complete opposite of the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spontaneous Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Not sure what to think yet about the Tigers trading Fister. On one hand, now we can keep Scherzer. On the other hand, would have perferred to dumb Porcello onto a team where his groundballs will actually be caught in the infield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Lucia Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Looks like the Tigers are going with Nathan for two years. Good luck with that. Also, Ryan Hanigan appears to be getting dealt to the Rays in a three-team deal. Hell of a defensive situation in Tampa with him and Molina. Aaaaaaaaaaand looks like Oakland is in the process of getting Craig Gentry from Texas. A lot of balls in the air, and we haven't even hit the Winter Meetings...

Cobra Commander Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Just saw in the observer that wwe diva jojo is jose offerman's daughter. Wait... WHAT????? just wait until Jose Offerman shows up to manage his daughter and starts randomly attacking referees after his daughter loses a match. Also, guess who's in Kansas City today? apparently some team has offered Beltran $48M over 3 years too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Lucia Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Alright, here's a roundup from my last post. Gentry/Lindblom to Oakland from Texas for Michael Choice and Chris Bostick. Three-way trade: Rays get Hanigan (sign to 3/$11 extension), the Heath Bell Experience, and cash. Reds get David Holmberg. Diamondbacks get Justin Choate and a PTBNL. Nathan gets 2/$20.

TimLivingston Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 A's continue to wheel and deal, grabbing Luke Gregerson from the Padres for Seth Smith to fulfill their need for bullpen help. Brett Anderson won't be traded today, but there's a good chance it'll be either this week or at the Winter Meetings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dolfan in NYC Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 Meanwhile, the Brewers are unsure if just Braun is going to fail a drug test this year or if they should try and expand it to Weeks and a few others to save pay roll. This would explain why they've apparently been sniffing around for Logan Morrison. Either that or he won't follow back on Twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Wait, did the M's offer Cano that? I've been out of the loop the last couple days. Not officially Sources are telling ESPN's Wallace Matthews that the Mariners are making a strong push for Cano and are willing to offer the said 8 year, $200 contract. The Ms are only willing to say that they have met with "everybody" And Matthews hates the Yanks and loves to troll them - so I always take his stuff with a grain of salt. Let's be honest - there is no way Jay Z is letting Cano to Seattle if he really going with the whole MICHAEL JORDAN OF BASEBALL~! angle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 So yeah... apparently the Yanks and Jacob Ellsbury are close to a deal (per Heyman) Umm... wasn't expecting that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 And in the time I made that post - Heyman now says the deal is done. 7 years, around $150 million 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
