Lucroy to Cleveland - LUCROY HAS VETOED THE TRADE

[MadThinker88]

Well then.............are people going to believe me now?

 

Next time, let's keep the snob remarks to ourselves when High Heat talks!

 

So is there a 4th?

I'm surprised no pitching prospect so far..

[reillymcshane]

Will Smith is next.

I will second this from a source of mine. Not a sure thing, but pretty sure it will happen at some point.

[pogokat]

Will Smith is next.

 

If you want people to believe you, be less cryptic

[3and2Fastball]

why mckenzie over sheffield? sheffield is rated higher now. higher ceiling?

 

Rated higher by whom? McKenzie has been dominant. And yes, higher ceiling

[jjkoestler]

Aiken or Mckenzie please.

I agree with you about snob remarks.

 

Are snarky remarks still acceptable?

 

[RockCoCougars]

Im guessing the fourth guy is the lesser prospect. Disappointed if no arms are coming back.

[MrTPlush]

May not be a 4th player.

[SRB]

Ken Rosenthal seems to be the only one to have mentioned a fourth piece. Slightly worried this is it.

Goes both ways.

[umpref]

the top 30 rankings for clev on mlb

[UMBrewer]

The #Brewers insisted on Franciso Meijia, Clint Frazier or Bradley Zimmer and two sides settled on Mejia to highlight package to #Brewers

 

This doesn't sound good for Stearns. Insist on Frazier /Zimmer and then pull in Mejia as the second piece

 

He underplayed his hand if this is the case.

[proudsoftballdad]

I being told the one missing name is the throw in player if that's the case a little disappointed were are the two top prospects he demanded?

[Point Beer Is Best]

The fourth prospect was supposed to me a lesser prospect, which now has me worried it won't be either of the pitchers.

[anglotiger]

I think Greg Allen was the lesser prospect

 

That's a pretty good "lesser prospect". I hope that you're right.

[HighHeat19]

My source says 4th piece is not in top 30. That's all I know.

[pogokat]

Ken Rosenthal seems to be the only one to have mentioned a fourth piece. Slightly worried this is it.

 

I think this is a great haul---3 players showing excellent skills that have a chance to stand out in the majors...their being a few years away actually makes them cheaper in the prospect-sphere. If Mejia keeps hitting like this the rest of the year, he'll be well up in the top 100

I've seen numerous people that think Mejia has more upside than either Frazier or Zimmer. I have no problem with Mejia as the primary piece.

[3and2Fastball]

Just a gut feeling but I could really see Lucroy exploiting his no-trade clause here and this going down to the last minute. Could see Lucroy having his agent work Cleveland for a contract upgrade, something.... hope I'm wrong

[Boomer5]

Wow. Love Mejia of course. The rest are I guess interesting but not give up Luc imterestimg.

 

Any chance they can get the Mets deal?

[proudsoftballdad]

The missing player is the throw in damn not as good as I thought it would be

[Warning Track Power]

Based on what I am seeing, I would've been fine with Zimmer and Mejia instead of the other two or three. Not thrilled here I must say. Usually I am the optimist, but a feels more like the Mets Gomez deal than the Astros Gomez deal.

[Boomer5]

Stearns traded a quarter for a dime and two nickels.

 

Whatever.

[proudsoftballdad]

Mejia is a one top prospect but not seeing the second like sterns said he was demanding

[Point Beer Is Best]

Of all the rumored pitching prospects, you're telling me none of them are in the deal?
