MARINERS LAND JUSTIN UPTON IN A STRAIGHT UP TRADE FOR NICK FRANKLIN
would be the headline of my dreams.
Mariners fan in SF :: @Eric_Dykstra
THIS LINK WAS POSTED FIFTEEN MINUTES AGO AND SINCE THEN WE HAVE BECOME FIFTEEN MINUTES CLOSER TO FIGURING OUT WHAT THIS IS ABOUT BECAUSE WE TOO ARE MOVING CLOSER
WHAT IF THE TRADE FELL THROUGH IN THE LAST FIFTEEN MINUTES AND NOBODY TOLD ANYBODY
I’M REALLY SCARED THAT HAPPENED
Determined, Jonesing Commentor
I FUCKING LOVE YOU GUYS

Would like it if Aaron Heilman was involved in the trade.

For the price young, good pitchers have been going for this offseason, I'd be really happy if we hear it's Pineda being traded.

IT DEPENDS ON WHETHER THE MARKET HAS DEVELOPED VIA DESPERATION
OTHERWISE, NO

One of the worst parts about trades is worrying about what player(s) you're going to lose.
I can’t tell if I’m more worried or excited. Also haha Pirates (that’s what you get for stealing Bedard, you scurvy sons of bitches).
I WAS SURPRISED BY THAT TRADE NOT ENDING UP A BIT WORSE CONSIDERING IT WASN'T GREAT FOR US.
LORIN AND ADCOCK LEAVING VIA RULE 5 HAS CERTAINLY HELPED US, I GUESS. WE DON’T HAVE THEM, BUT THE PIRATES DON’T EITHER.

Trades are exciting,
but I’m not going to freak out until I hear some names. Chone Figgins’ bat had an “impact” on the M’s, but it wasn’t a good one.
WHY DOES Z KEEP RECYCLING PEOPLE HE'S ALLREADY BEEN INTERESTED IN

This is from the same Crasnick fellow who said the M's only have 3 or 4 million left to spend
So fuck everything about this, preemptively
Holy fucking fuck
I… I’ve never been part of a MeLLtdown before, I’m so nervous… what do I wear? What do I do? aaaaaa
Fantasy owners throughout nation hold breath
Montero and Pineda stocks both plummet but a win for M’s fans.
MILTON BRADLEY FOR CARLOS SILVA
Yes, we have a coupon.

I'm sorry
But wouldn’t Pineda for Montero be a DISASTROUS trade?
I HAVE TO THINK THERE'S MORE THINGS COMING BESIDES JUST MONTERO BECAUSE OTHERWISE yes
Determined, Jonesing Commentor
IT DEPENDS.
I DON’T PARTICULARLY FEEL LIKE THE YANKEES ARE AN EXCELLENT MATCH BECAUSE A LOT OF WHAT THEY HAVE IS PITCHING (WHICH WE HAVE) AND CATCHING (WHICH WE’RE TRYING TO DEVELOP), AND VERY FEW IF THEIR TOP PROSPECTS ARE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE MAJOR LEAGUES. WE COULD GET MONTERO FROM THEM, BUT THE OTHER PIECES WOULD EITHER BE THEIR PITCHERS (OKAY, HELPS FILL THE PINEDA VOID) OR SOMETHING ELSE WHICH WOULD HELP US NOT IN 2012 BUT PERHAPS 2015.
by JY on Jan 13, 2012 4:30 PM PST up reply actions
MAYBE A 3 WAY TRADE?
I FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE TO GET AT LEAST ONE MAJOR LEAGUE TESTED PIECE FOR PINEDA
MAYBE PINEDA FOR MONTERO AND A STARTER THAT ISN’T AS GOOD AS PINEDA- NOVA?
Determined, Jonesing Commentor
YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I'M THINKING, BECAUSE IT DOESN'T MAKE MUCH SENSE OTHERWISE

Especially if they hold off on announcing the trade until tomorrow.
It’s 7:30 EST, I’m going to be pissed if I have to stay up all night checking twitter & MLBTR. Especially if the “young impact hitter” ends up being Trumbo or Venable. (Could still be a solid trade, but not worth losing sleep over).
SOON ALL I'LL HAVE IS XMRADIO FOR LIKE 2 HOURS
I MIGHT HAVE TO TEXT AND DRIVE TO GET UPDATES
I'm in Whistler with 35 drunken UW Snowboard club members in a 10 person condo
I don’t have time for this!
NOW THERE'S A REPORT OUT OF HISPANOLA

GUYS GUYS GUYS
Greg Johns:
“Trying to confirm report out of Dominican that #Mariners-#Yankees on verge of trade involving Michael Pineda and Jesus Montero.”
It’s from the DR! Has to be true!
EHHHHH STILL KIND OF UNCOMFORTABLE TRADING PINEDA...

I'M SLIGHTLY COMFORTED BY THE FACT THAT PAXTON AND DANNY BOY ARE SO CLOSE TO THE BIG LEAGUES BUT DAMN DO I LOVE PINEDA

PINEDA WAS ALWAYS THE GUY I BACKED WHEN NO ONE ELSE REALLY LIKED HIM ALL THAT MUCH AND I'LL ADMIT MY IRRATIONALITY

Speaking of our top pitching prospects, JY, how far off would you estimate Walker is from the big leagues?
Like 2ish years, right?
ASSUMING THE CURRENT RATE OF PROGRESS, THAT WOULD BE A SOMEWHAT AGGRESSIVE TIMETABLE
WE HAVEN’T YET SEEN THEM PUSH PREP PLAYERS THAT HARD AND PITCHERS HAVE BEEN ON A CASE-BY-CASE THING. PAXTON AND VASQUEZ BOTH GOT PUSHED, BUT THAT MADE SENSE IN CONTEXT.

RUMors: Michael Pineda and Jesus Montoro could be haded to NY by the Mariners. Moar details to come.

i am shouting in lower case...
because i’m a hipster commenter! woowwweeee!
Anyone that thinks Yuniesky Betancourt outplayed anyone last year, you're a moron, and I hope your genes are stricken from the world to prevent further breeding.
That's because so far it's a great deal for them
Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
