[knoxvol52]

This conversation is only for people who have won a World Series in the last 15 years.

F the Yankees...

THE PADRES TRADED DE VRIES AND WE WEREN'T ON THAT FIRE AA INTO THE SUN

 

[zjcvols]

That might be the worst trade of the decade. Oh my god, what is Preller doing?!?!

 

[Blake25p]

Holy moly

[AV_12]

That’s insane

 

[AV_12]

They should have traded Murphy all of relievers plus whatever prospect outside of Caminiti for Leo

LOL, he could have gotten Jhoan Duran plus an arm like Bailey Ober for him. Preller is a moron.

I mean geez, Mason Miller isn't even that great of a closer.

Wish I could share the texts my brother (the Padres fan) is sending me, just absolute gold right now. Makes me look sane.

How many times have we said that about Preller?

There’s definitely a middle ground between his approach and most people’s but him and Dombroski get clowned all the time but..

It’d be nice to have an aggressive front office once in a while.

A 14K rate and 4 more years of control

Isn’t even that great of a closer? are you the one that’s insane?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I wanted Mason Miller

I like to lean toward a pretty long leash with "go get really good players and try to win" as the strategy.

Prime Pastornicky for Mason Miller who says no

 

[LotteryPick]

Damn the A’s looking pretty nice

 

[LotteryPick]

 

[Carp]

Goodness gracious AA. If that is all the Pads got in return for the #3 prospect in baseball, WTF didn't you trade them Murphy when it's clear they are desperate? Why does it always seem like this entire organization is asleep at the wheel?

An 18 year old hitting .240 in A ball that’s likely to have to move off SS.. ya idk. Mason Miller is pretty good right now.

 

[005]

Hug your prospects. Makes em feel all warm and fuzzy before you trade them.

Trading an 18 year old SS (with a top 10 ranking) isn't what bothers me.

Trading it for a reliever is absurd. But my general philosophy is to never give up something real for a reliever. You want to trade that for Sale or Murphy? I'm good with it. Not a 25 year old reliever.

2.68 FIP in 136 innings.

He's legit good.

Them and duds always have “guys” to trade so they can be aggressive because they are good at finding them

They either play their top guys or trade them. Every year, no in between. Love it

That’s fair.

What if they stretch him out next spring training?

Smith jr WR1??

He and Jackson are looking super promising. And they have to play
