Around SBN: Penn State Recruiting Roundup Is Set For A Big Junior Day

four trades in four days-Part 1

Well guys Im leaving for NYC to see the Yanks and Orioles game on Tues.  The tickets for the game I have is on Weds.  So I guess I didn't plan these diaries occordingly.  So 2 trades today and 2 trades tomorrow. 

 Well we just traded for Donald Veal and gave up not one part of our future and in doing so can now get Boggs and The Murph more playing time.  We also gave up Eddie G Money which to me isnt a huge dissapointment because of his age.

quick review, we have lost Pads, cruz, G Money, and the Birdman and recieved Alan Horne, Austin Jackson, and Donald Veal.  Not bad at all imo.

Breaking News:  The Rangers trade Milton Bradley and Chris Davis to the Mets for Fernando Martinez, Eddie KunzNathan Vineyard, and Brant Rustich.

The mets could live without getting Bradley, but do they want to? Church and Alou are both injured and they are throwing out Tatis and Chavez, not ideal if you ask me.  Bradley is a big bat who can still play right field.  He seems to be more durable then we Rangers feel.   I think we have been taking it easy on him because of his history.  Davis is the future 1st baseman for them and should be demmed expandable once Smoak signs.  Of course though I don't want Davis gone because he is a beast in the making, but this is a fun activity people, take it with a grain of salt.

We get a future closer, a high cieling arm in Vineyard, and a pitcher who will most likely be a starter but could dominat in the pen, Rustich.  Of course we also get another amazing outfielder in Martinez.  What an outfield we would have if we aquired him. 

I think Bradley could net the three pitchers by himself and I guess I added Davis to the mix because he should be able to get Martinez.  Davis is Major League ready, unlike Martinez.

Im voting no on this one, but I would like everyones input so Im throwing it out there.

Good no one vote yes,

I want Davis here damnit!

It is hard coming up with trades when both teams dont match up. Remember, Im doing it with just contenders everyone. Not every contender will match up with us.

I can’t think of many players I would trade Davis for.

Ok,

but that’s still not many out of the pantheon of players, and certainly NONE of those you listed are available.

Well...

That was just off the top of my head and nobody ever said anything about availability.

If you look at the poll results.

It’s like LSB is giving a gigantic middle finger to this thread.

that isnt giving the thread the middle finger ya douche. Its giving the trade proposal one.
