Haren to the Angels
From a Victor Rojas' tweet:
Saunders plus 3 to #dbacks for Dan Haren. #angels
The Angels seem to think they can still get this thing.
Update: The package is Joe Saunders, Patrick Corbin, Rafael Rodriguez and a player to be named.

The PTBNL better be Trout.

just heard it on MLBN
and was going to post it. Announced but not approved by MLB yet, according to MLBN.

Trout
has to be one of the 3, right?
Hey Tom - It's over now, so do you know how - to pick up the pieces and go home?
Let me be the first to say...
Fuck Dan Haren.

Arizona will receive Joe Saunders, Patrick Corbin, Rafael Rodriguez, and a player to be named later in return.

depends on the PTBNL
I hope it’s Trout.

sucks having no money
I think the Angels just got 2-3 years of Haren for a fraction of what we paid for half a season of Lee.
Damnit.

Not so far this year, at least.
I hope he doesn’t re-discover his stuff, or whatever has been off this year.

True dat
I wouldn’t have been as excited had we traded for haren instead of cliff. I hope josh, vlad, and nelly heat pear that elevated homer rate of his.

right, but...
Lee will probably contribute something like 3.5 WAR over his tenure as a Ranger.
Haren will probably contribute something like 21 WAR in the next 2 and a half seasons. Seems like the Angels got great value.
Hey Tom - It's over now, so do you know how - to pick up the pieces and go home?
ehh, should be about 15 WAR for Haren
Hey Tom - It's over now, so do you know how - to pick up the pieces and go home?
That's an extremely cheap deal it seems like
Freaking Angels. Does Scioscia have compromising pics of the AZ GM?

The Angels just matched our trade for Lee.
Does JD raise by trading for an upgrade at 1b?

We're six up on the Angels
I don’t see why we’d need to respond to them getting Haren.

forget the Angels
Do you think we need an upgrade at 1b?
Hey Tom - It's over now, so do you know how - to pick up the pieces and go home?
He might believe an upgrade
would help us stay 6 up. I was just asking, not proposing.

Son of a bitch!
Way to ruin my happy Newberg Report Night mood. Fuck the Halos!
I hope the PTBNL is Trout. Kevin Goldstein had really good things to say about him during his q and a.

It's not Trout
he wouldn’t have to be a PTNBL.
Plus god hates us. If he loved us, Trout would already be on a plane to Arizona.

Just because Trout wouldn't have to be a PTBNL...
…doesn’t mean that he’s not the PTBNL.

Nobody else in that system
can sniff the odors of his jockstrap after a solid week of use.
WHy would he be a PTBNL?

Ugh...
now the Rangers will have Haren to contend with for 3 years. This sucks. I doubt the PTBNL is Trout. I think the Dbacks just got screwed because the Halos were willing to take on Haren’s contract.
I know there’s a perception out there by some that Saunders is good, but he’s really not. Unfortunately it appears as if the DBackd FO have some of those people that think Saunders is good. Bleh.

Who cares.......
the Rangers are young, better prospects, on the verge of getting a real ownership( which means they will possibly try to sign lee). This team has such great upside with the Rookies and such that I am not worried about the Angels. I am only worried what the Rangers do and how our youngsters keep progressing…..I am excited.

In recent years, Budweiser has been the MVP of Super Bowl advertising -- making another company the favorite to win the Ad Meter poll was never an option."

In JD's online chat
I dropped at least 10 questions related to Haren (knowing he couldn’t answer, but trying to subliminally influence him).
Turns out we could have traded Feldman, Beltre, and Beltre for him.
Just gross.
Haren
He will struggle. Whenever a pitcher moves from the AL to the NL, they’ll suddenly will be better. When they go from the NL the the AL, they’ll struggle. NL lineups as a whole are weaker, especially in the 9 hole. I’m not to worried about Haren with the Angels, by the time he adjusts, the Rangers will just about have the West tied up.

Good move by Angels but not enough
Angels made a good pick up but I don’t think it will be enough. The hitting is where the Angels lack, the age is really piling up on them quick. The Rangers are still the team to beat, check out my article why http://pardonmybias.com/the-surging-rangers/
