The teams that we traded those five players to have gotten a combined 5.1 WAR out of them. We've gotten 5 WAR out of Santana and Shaw this season and have a combined five million years of team control left amongst the entire group. Oh yeah, and the two most valuable (when traded) players have been waived (Gomez) and just traded for a PTBNL (Lucroy). The PTBNL in the Shaw trade.

It's a great move. It cost us nothing but a few bucks and an org guy. Jeffress still has tons of talent and put it together in Milwaukee once. He fell apart because the support system wasn't there in Texas, so as long as the Brewers help him off the field I look at him as a potential positive asset. He's got 2 years left of team control, will have a chance to rebound and show he can be a ~$4M RP guy next year over the next few months, won't be more than a middle relief option to right away, and isn't named Carlos Torres.

Feels inevitable at this point that Gray will be a Yankee. Also, confirmation it's a 1-1 for JJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hilarious. What an absolutely brutal trade for the Rangers. Anyways I love the Jeffress trade for everything Rams said. Just no risk.

Thelonebillsfan Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Not really weird, the reports were wrong and despite pressure Stearns said "no" to damaging the system to add a piece now. Beane wanted depth more than a real top-5 guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

titans0021 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Hiura with his seventh multi-hit game in his 12th game with the T-Rats. 16-game hitting streak. Has a hit in 26 of 27 games to start his career. The one game he doesn't, he drew three walks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
