Losing out on their #2 guy and seeing him in the same division might be the kind of thing that makes the Dodgers desperate enough to open up the vault for one of our guys?

 

Yeah they could beef up their rotation signing Cueto and then dipping into the farm to get Q.

i would love to have a good exchange for a trade, as long as the sox also gets in the pkg from the dodgers, their 2 comp picks in next yr draft.

well take a look at this, this way, sfo is not going to let them walk away in the fa market without wanting to fight, they still feel as they still can make it to the playoff, as long they beat the dodgers. but with stewart and larussa in arz, and that young core of players. i would be looking over my shoulder if i was the dodgers.

 

the dodgers wanted to use less money and more cost control pitchers, but circumstances may not let them. the dodgers have a core of players that will be untouchables. do you really see outside this core, players who can help???

Diamondbacks are doing things right. Build up their squad through the farm system, then supplementing with stars where needed. They actually went through with a patient approach (fanbase down there allows for it better I'm guessing) and it's working out so far. They need another starter at least. I'd expect them to make the playoffs in 2017. I just rather them give that deal to a younger player in Price.

yep, it is easier when your team is the only team in town.

Greinke has some close friends that own Sportiqe, a sports & music t-shirt company out of Tempe, AZ.

 

They actually have some of the most comfortable shirts you will ever wear. http://sportiqe.com/

 

Probably a part of the reason, along with the low pressure of the market & huge amount of $$$ why he chose AZ.

 

Don't underestimate the fact that half his games now he will know that the weather will be nice, roof open or closed. Something that might add to his anxiety in rainy areas like So Cal or SF.

 

They also have some great young hitters, some young pitching talent, and tons to spend. Don't forget the DBacks just signed a $1 Billion Dollar TV Contract with Fox Sports in the last 2 years.

 

SoCal is rainy? You sure about that?

So, how much were you paid by them to say that?
