re: TDBL Winter Meetings 2014-2015

thanks for the deal Lou

Good luck

I lose that deal if CarGo stays healthy, but I'm already gambling with Braun.

Fading star for a guy that was overhyped a year ago.

I wanted to add Segura so I can replace Reyes likely next off-season. Wainwright was going to be the odd man out on my keeper list, and I didn't want to keep 5 SPs.


Now, if anyone wants to take a gamble on Cliff Lee, he can be had cheap.

Now is the time to dump him IMO. He could come back and be great but the peripherals at the end of last year don't seem to indicate it (drop in velocity, drastic decrease in K/9 and K%, decrease in K/BB, etc. - check out his second half splits on Fangraphs). Now is the time to unload him for value (if you can trade at this point) while all of this is mere conjecture. If he starts the season and has a Verlander-esque April, you're going to hate yourself.
