Balta1701 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 I continue to be surprised that the Dodgers aren't being more aggressive in filling their needs on the trade market. We'll see how it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiderman Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Are the Indians re-tooling or rebuilding on the fly? Seems like an odd message to be sent if you're trying to compete by trading their ace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balta1701 Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Quote Enrique Rojas of ESPN Deportes further reports that Cruz will earn $14MM in 2019, and the contract contains a $12MM club option with a $300K buyout (Twitter link). Cruz is represented by agent Bryce Dixon. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2018/12/twins-sign-nelson-cruz.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomPickle Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Cruz and Alonso certainly aren't the exact same player and maybe Alonso helps land Machado, but hard to think that Cruz doesn't out produce Alonso by $5 million next year.

GREEDY Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 If anyone was still worried Abreu might be traded, I think Cruz only getting 14 should help ease your mind a little. I understand they aren't the same player, but I think it cements the fact that Jose is worth "about" what he is being paid, therefore shouldn't/wouldn't bring much of anything back in return... therefore the Sox aren't turning down prospects for keeping Abreu.

ChiSox59 Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 A tad more than I thought he'd get. $14.3M is not nothing for a one dimensional player that is quickly approaching 40. But it is hard for a one year deal to go too sour. This also locks Sano into 3B for the Twins, and he is pretty terrible at 3B. The Twins new front office really likes trying to build a squad off stopgap players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chitownsportsfan Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 God dammit that's a great deal for the Twins. He's purely a DH but he's a good DH. Would not be surprised to see him put up 3 WAR next year and hit 280/350/520. That said, there's a non zero chance his BA craters and sucks up a lot of his value. Not much value at 230/300/470.
