There are rumors that free agent outfielder Nelson Cruz turned down the Mariners’ offer of 5-years, $75 million.

If the Mariners keep adding big pieces, the AL West could be crazy... the Trout/Pujols/Hamilton Angels could be a solid 4th place team... and the poor Stros

Rumored 3-way deal:

To DBacks: Trumbo
To White Sox: Adam Eaton
To Angels: Tyler Skaggs, Hector Santiago

Eaton+Skaggs for Trumbo....yea no chance we'd beat that offer

Why can't we make trades with Kevin Towers? He's dumber than Ruben
I know what you're asking yourself and the answer is yes. I have a nick name for my penis. Its called the Octagon, but I also nick named my testes - my left one is James Westfall and my right one is Doctor Kenneth Noisewater.

Towers is the fucking worst. Apparently Arizona didn't have enough of Trumbo the first time when his name was Mark Reynolds.

I mean, the lineup is okay, you've got Goldschmidt/Trumbo and Parra and Montero and Hill, but this trade just seems like a total waste of resources.

I like the deal for the Angels and DBacks. Not too sure about the White Sox giving up a solid pitcher for Adam Eaton.

Trumbo's stat line reminds me of Joe Carter. Impressive to old school fans, but not really very good.
