I see, but why would you want to stay there through a rebuild? I can't answer for him, but he says he loves Cincinnati and doesn't want to leave. I'll believe what he says until something different comes out. I said this in the other thread, but he really had no incentive to say anything else and I have a hard time believing he wouldn't leave Cincinatti for a perennial contender.

Price also said he loved Toronto & that he would like to remain there.....not many times a player comes out & says he'd like to be traded or wanted to play somewhere else. Must be an unwritten rule.

Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports reports that the Mariners are talking to the Red Sox about a starting pitcher. Clay Buchholz and Wade Miley would seem to be the best fit here as the Red Sox continue to restructure under new president Dave Dombrowski.
Personally hope its Miley and not Buchholz.
First Felix rumor in 3......2......1...

In all seriousness, Carson Smith would be perfect. Big time K and GB% and a lot of team control. I wonder if Marrero + Miley could get that done.

I can't be the only guy eagerly awaiting the reports of what the Dodgers gave up so I can compare it to what the Sox gave up for Kimbrel ... right?

They can take both for Walker Yeah I was wondering when the first Walker conversation would take place in a forum like this. Lol no chance at Walker though, I wish there was a way for that to get done.

You think you need to add more to Miley to get Carson Smith? Is that a joke? Unless you were a team with a tight payroll and only cared about dollars per war, that trade makes no sense. A pitcher like Miley, with his contract has a ton more value then a young reliever that has only one year of relieving. Sure it was a good year, but we all know relievers are up and down from year to year. Now if he had two straight years do what he did last year, it would really increase his value in my eyes. Right now Seattle would have to add a very decent prospects with Smith to get Miley in a trade.

Rob Bradford @bradfo Source: Red sox don't seem likely to move Joe Kelly. He probably makes the most sense to move if teams are super interested in him. But if teams just want to see if they can get a buy low guy with upside, no thanks. We'll take that.

We have not heard from Xander in a while. It would have been nice if someone had put a GPS tracking device on him so that we could monitor his movements throughout the Winter Meetings.

He's a good find if the Sox were to trade Miley in my opinion.

I'm not there at the moment. I'm not attending the meetings, I work nearby at stroll over for a few hours at a time. I knew my Monday would be tough and may not get there until tonight, that's why I went over yesterday. All this activity sure has me itching to be there. In years past, when I've attended, the speed of reporting hasn't what it is now. Now I feel like I can be more focused while there, and maybe jump in on an interview or two.

Grow a pencil thin mustache, steal a room service outfit and cart, and see if you can work your way into Dombrowski's suite

When you say jump into an interview, what kind of interview are you talking about?

I wonder who Sox could get back with the price of pitching so high. I would like someone like Paxton and a RP. Maybe Carson Smith?

Where is that child prodigy ace cub reporter kid who broke the news about Hanley and Pablo last year when you need him?
