chw42 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 (edited) Is Kendrick really worth a top 30 prospect like Heaney? He only has one year left on his contract and it's not like he's going to be cheaper than Dee Gordon. Edited December 11, 2014 by chw42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liriano got 3 and $39 million. McCarthy had a pretty damn good season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Who does that leave on the pitcher's market? Peavy, Vogelsong, Volquez, B. Anderson, Floyd, Josh Johnson, Masterson? Kuroda retiring? Aaron Harang? Brandon Morrow? Maholm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quin Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 QUOTE (chw42 @ Dec 11, 2014 -> 12:03 AM) Is Kendrick really worth a top 30 prospect like Heaney? He only has one year left on his contract and it's not like he's going to be cheaper than Dee Gordon. If you go by Heaney's MLB Prospect Ranking, he's 18 and Rodon is 19. I'd be furious if we traded Rodon for Heaney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smalls2598 Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 Rotoworld: According to CJ Nitkowski of FOX Sports 1, outfielder Yoenis Cespedes has been traded to the Tigers for right-handed starter Rick Porcello. I saw on Twitter that a third team may also be part of the trade, but no details to that just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw on Twitter that a third team may also be part of the trade, but no details to that just yet. It seems like that trade has been talked about for weeks now. Porcello seems to improve last year, I don't see how this trade makes Detroit any better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shysocks Posted December 11, 2014 Share Posted December 11, 2014 I guess Porcello will hit free agency next year too. I had assumed that he had more years of control left than that. That makes this a little more even. Another consideration - is this a response by Boston to Masterson signing with the #MysteryTeam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
