Barraclough traded to Nats for international pool money

Featured Replies

When did Jack ever say anything about selling low on Barraclough though? Someone speaks of one thing and you go an mention something else. 

 

both yall need to be banned for backtalking me

 

 

For the record I’d rather have the Mesas and Gaston than Lillie and Barraclough and whoever else we moved to increase our pool.  But this should be something we consistently do and not a one off to appease the Cuban fan base. I hope they sign and I think if we have to trade anything of actual value for more pool money it wouldn’t be unreasonable to question those moves. But sure I’ll take pool money for bullpen castoffs

This is true. Well said.

 

 

Yes we sold low on Barraclough but being able to get IFA $ for him is a pretty solid consolation prize if we get the trio. Dare I say we can eventually look at it as Claw and Lillie being traded for the two Mesas and Gaston? Not bad. Besides, would selling better on Barraclough have netted us a return better than Victor Victor Mesa? 

 

 

It evaporates. We would've traded Barraclough for nothing.

 

That's why I fully believe they have a handshake agreement for a number and are just now trying to reach it.

 

Evaporates? Is that a pool/water joke or u for real?

 

 

now watch the other teams refuse to trade for $$$ just to dick us over now that the team is close...

 

I actually thought about this but if you give them the player they want its basically a perfect deal for the other team. A safer bet for them too. They're getting a player they want for money they were never gonna use. It's almost a free trade. The only team who would really deny us is Baltimore and possibly whichever team is right behind us if they still have interest in these guys.

could be a way to flush out or narrow down the mystery team depending on who is listening or willing to trade

 

 

both things are be true m8 - it's good they're going after IFA and Michael Hill still suck at making trades

 

Fixed it

you love the double typing right ?

 

 

I don't believe they would made these trades without any promise from Mesa's and Gaston's party,it just seems they give us some period of time to make our bouns pool money as close as to what the Orioles' money.

They could make this gamble without a deal but it's more likely what you said. Let's hope so.
