Yes. Seems like the AL east teams are all making moves... except the rays but we know their brand of ball doesnt allow for moves.. thats it tho. Everyone else is making moves. Right?

They traded Lowe to Pittsburgh yesterday in a 3-way trade with Houston.

Holy fucking shit... Just dont watch the frames where US is pitching.

Guess they didn’t like losing to Japan in the last WBC Final (mostly because USA pitchers were a no-show)

Marlins sign Pete Fairbanks to a 1yr/$13 million deal. They’ll need him after Ronny went down with UCL surgery last week.

The shit coming out of Yankee land (or not coming out) is making me ill. Belli seems likely and then maybe a trade using Dominguez? But everytime theres rumored involvement on a FA (Imai) or trade (Cabrera) it turns out Cashman was never REALLY in the mix. Its disheartening... is this how fans of 2/3 the teams feel every off-season?

Cabrera won’t come cheap for the Cubs but Cabrera to Cubs has serious traction.

I’m guessing it will be Cubs #1 prospect (Cassie) and one of Kevin Alcantara/Jonathan Long/Pedro Ramirez

Welcome to Miami, Big Ginger!

For the Cubs fans here, Edward Cabrera has absolutely filthy stuff. Quite possibly filthier than anyone already in your rotation (he throws 96 MPH CHANGE UPS) and other wiffle ball type pitches. And he still has some years of club control.

But prior to last season, his command was terrible and he’s always been injury prone.

Us Marlins fans will miss him because of his filthy stuff and he is a gamer.

But I predict he needs Tommy John within the next 24 months. Hopefully not

put him on the Jake arrieta roid shot and pilates and he will win 26 games
