good morning David and spamlet

Responses:

everyone should have interest in him. But I don't love the Braves prospects - groiny Dec 2, 07:32 22
- I think they have a deep farm system and it's rated one of the best. -- nm - Krusty Dec 2, 07:41 1
  - I know, I just don't love them. - groiny Dec 2, 07:42
- We're barely even the best farm system in baseball. -- nm - David Dec 2, 07:39 12
  - you have nice prospects, just none that I really want for Sale. - groiny Dec 2, 07:40 11
    - Because our best pitchers were at Rome, where they had an ERA of about 0.4 for the playoffs. - David Dec 2, 07:45 10
      - and you have 2 prospects ranked in the top 50, with Newcomb at 37 and Albies at 12? -- nm - groiny Dec 2, 07:46 9
        
        That's the problem with prospects lists. We just theoretically traded for Seattle's #1 player. - David Dec 2, 07:51 8
        
        it is whichever prospect list is on mlb.com app - groiny Dec 2, 07:54 7
        
        Okay, that's one they'll update in February. - David Dec 2, 08:08 6
        
        and all that being said, I have no idea why they would be in the market for Sale right now. -- nm - groiny Dec 2, 08:11 3
        
        You can never have too much pitching. - Will Hunting Dec 2, 08:13 2
        
        I get that, but they are not likely gonna win anything until 2018 at the earliest. -- nm - groiny Dec 2, 08:16 1
        
        I was taking why Boston would be in the market -- nm - Will Hunting Dec 2, 08:30
        
        I like Newcomb and Anderson, Maitan, but they are all at least 2 years away. - groiny Dec 2, 08:10 1
        
        Allard was the best high school pitcher in last year's draft by a fairly decent amount, but he hurt his back about two months before the draft. - David Dec 2, 08:30
- Dansby! But I'm guessing he's off the table. -- nm - Strongbad Dec 2, 07:34 2
  - I do not see the Braves moving him. -- nm - groiny Dec 2, 07:35 1
    - I'm told you should always try to sell your stolen goods. - Will Hunting Dec 2, 07:52
- Albies is the guy I keep seeing as part of a package -- nm - ML Dec 2, 07:33 3
  - It's Folty or Wisler who would anchor the package. - David Dec 2, 07:42 1
    - I sure as shit hope if we move a cost controlled Sale, we get more than that -- nm - groiny Dec 2, 07:43
  - Sale should net 3 excellent prospects, his contract is super friendly -- nm - groiny Dec 2, 07:34
