October 10, 20187 yr 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
October 10, 20187 yr 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
October 10, 20187 yr both yall need to be banned for backtalking me I back talked you, not him. You can't get anything right lately.

October 10, 20187 yr 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?
October 10, 20187 yr So what happens to pool money if it isn't used? 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.
October 10, 20187 yr now watch the other teams refuse to trade for $$$ just to dick us over now that the team is close...

October 10, 20187 yr 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.

October 10, 20187 yr Evaporates? Is that a pool/water joke or u for real? I wasn't going for a joke there, that one was an accidental one.

October 10, 20187 yr If we succeed The Plan ultimately, I wouldn't mind trading arby' guys. But They Have The Meats!
October 10, 20187 yr both things are be true m8 - it's good they're going after IFA and Michael Hill still suck at making trades Fixed it
October 11, 20187 yr 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.

October 11, 20187 yr 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.
