    Interesting move. Wonder if they'll make a move for Eric Hosmer or Manny Machado.

    Arroyo probably ready to start at third right now, so no need to overpay for Machado. Then again, I think Arroyo can play shortstop too if I recall so who knows.

    Lol from Stanton to Longoria

    traded away number one one prospect for an aging player

    Giants are full of old players on their roster , they are making horrible future decisions

    I’m glad Cards didn’t get Stanton now btw, it opened up other avenues

    Allowed us to get Ozuna and still have a great amount of young assets for future moves

    Id say the same for Giants but they are retarded to add another aging player to that

    already old roster, u gotta admit that, and to give away their best young player

    for someone who’s going to be making 20 million at age 35 soon


    Yikes and gl

    Yeah he plays 3 positions like Beckham did for them. I don't think it would cost the Rays much since the O's are looking for arms and the Rays have plenty but I don't know if the O's GM would trade Machado within the division. Plus the Rays do have plenty of infield prospects but if you get Machado, I feel it would raise attendance.

    So I'm guessing the Giants are out the Machado sweep stakes, that leaves the Cardinals or White Soxs. Where ever he lands that's my new team. I'm leaving my Marlins colors behind.

    Ozuna was a very nice pick up by the Cardinals. Him and Pham in the outfield should be fun. If the Cardinals end up getting Machado it would of been awesome to have seen Machado with Aledmys Diaz but he's now a Blue Jay.

    I pray they don’t get Machado , his attitude doesn’t fit St Louis
    plus he def won’t stay . Can’t give up valuable prospects for a 1 year rental

    Now Donaldson though , he would be a king in St Louis
    plus we prolly could get him for 3-5 years

    My lord what would teams do

    1 Carp (on base monster with some pop)
    2. Pham (on base monster with pop and speed)
    3.Ozuna ( loves men on base, he will love St Louis )
    4.Donaldson (hitting clean up with on base monsters in front of him )
    5.Fowler(he is a run producer , thrived in clean up spot last year)
    6.Dejong(incredible to have such quality hitter batting 6th in ur lineup)
    7.Molina (Almost career .290 hitter )
    8.Wong/Gyorko (pick your poison against righties or lefties)


    Put your finger over the 3-4 batters above

    and look at the 1-2 hitters and 5-6 hitters surrounding them

    see the quality , then remove ur finger and realize once again who the 3-4 hitters are

    WOW

    Dont like Cards rotation though

    Tampa overpay for free agents? Not in my lifetime. Damn Florida just dumping MLB talent left and right. I kinda wish they'd simply left South Florida all minor league haven instead of putting MLB here. It's just not working.

    San Francisco will be doing the same next year when the Giants go nowhere.

    Nice move by the Giants. Not sure if it’s enough to beat out the rest in the NL West
