    Dbacks going after Chapman?

    Shipley PLUS 2 top 10 prospects?? Man, I would love to have Chapman especially since it now sounds like it would be contingent on him being willing to extend his deal, but that is a HIGH price. I could see Shipley and 1 prospect, but TWO, I don't know how I feel about that. On the bright...

    Dbacks going after Chapman?

    I'd love to have hint if it was long term, but his contract is up at the end of this season. Arbitration next year

    The Case for Cole Hamels

    We absolutely have the pieces to make a VERY strong offer. I could see a package of 3 or 4 of these 12 players, one from each category. Bradley Blair Shipley Yoan Lopez Hellickson De La Rosa Inciarte Peralta O'Brien Drury D. Leyba Swanson (as a "player to be named later") As much as I...

    Mediocre DBacks Pitching Staff

    I should have clarified. This is the part I disagree with. Also, the 4 pitchers listed in my post minus Blair and Shipley would make a very nice 2 - 5 if they can return to form. With what we have (not necessarily in the majors, but in our organization, we're only an ace away from being a...

    Mediocre DBacks Pitching Staff

    I couldn't disagree more. I agree we need an ace, but I do think we have a very strong 2 - 5 next season with 4 of these 6 Corbin Bradley Ray Anderson Blair Shipley There are several question mark in there, can Bradley get back to normal, can Corbin get back to his old ways, can...

    Mediocre DBacks Pitching Staff

    But it has the pieces to build a great staff. Corbin, Bradley, Ray, Anderson as the 2 - 5 and sign an ace in the off season

    Touki Toussaint ERA since he was traded

    A.) His 4.19 era isn't against major leaguers it's against other 19 year old kids in single A B.) We didn't trade for Phil Gosselin, we traded for cash that in my opinion is likely to go towards an ace in the off season Let me add that I do not necessarily agree with the trade, but the...

    T minus 2 hours to sign Dansby Swanson

    The sticking point might not be money. Could be that Ahmed has proven to teh Dbacks that he's the SS of the future so they went to Swanson saying that he needs to move to 2b and they have their differences on that.

    T minus 2 hours to sign Dansby Swanson

    Next years draft has 3 top college pitching prospects in Alec Hansen, Riley Pint and Aj Puk, I think we're targeting one of them

    T minus 2 hours to sign Dansby Swanson

    Not me. I don't think they ever had any intention of signing him in the first place. This was a weak draft, I think they'd prefer to have #2 overall next year instead. Nick Ahmed is playing great ball, we don't have a need for a SS.

    I just figured out who David Johnson is (NFL comparison)

    A.) Roger Craig is not in the Hall of Fame B.) The comparison was in the style of back, skill set and manner in which they are used C.) This is a message board, how many people would visit and post if the only posts on the site were "Well, just wait and see what happens, no projections or...

    Dbacks @ Mets Series Thread

    Pennington?? WTF why do our managers always jack with our lineup? Ahmed has been playing great, make him the everyday SS. Stop effing with the lineup all the time!

    How much (Who) would you give up for Chris Sale?

    Because an asset like that can rebuild a team with the package they could get back for him. One pitcher, no matter how good he is can't carry a team, the WhiteSox are much further away from competing than they can fix by signing a FA or two, they need a rebuild. Right now they have a 35 year...

    I just figured out who David Johnson is (NFL comparison)

    David Johnson is listed at 6'1" 225lbs and is known for his pass catching ability. When we see 225lbs, we think, BIG BACK SMASH. Although that's not his game at all. On tape we see a runner that runs very upright. Now compare that to a 6'0" 222LB back that won 4 Super Bowls with the...

    How much (Who) would you give up for Chris Sale?

    You're probably right about the package needing to include more value, although I don't know how many teams would both be willing to give more. Just because there is a great player that is available doesn't mean that 29 other teams will jump to empty out there farm system. The Dbacks are in a...

    How much (Who) would you give up for Chris Sale?

    I'd give any 3 minor league prospects (Blair, Shipley, O'Brien etc), other than Brandon Drury, since I see him as our every day 2B next season and throw in Hellickson and/or De La Rosa to boot. Big package, I know, but I think an ace like him would be the missing link between .500 and one of...

    How much (Who) would you give up for Chris Sale?

    A 26 year old TRUE STUD ACE with a career 2.77 ERA in the AL and under contract for 5 more years (including the remainder of this season), averaging only 11Mil/season for the remainder of the contract. Imagine a rotation of... Sale plus 4 of these Corbin Bradley Anderson Ray Shipley...
