Lookout Landing

I can't see Morrow being enough for Wallace, let alone Wallace+

To which I reply

Did you see GMZ’s previous two trades?

Though you do have a point

I guess it’s wishful thinking on my part

Dave speculates that its Wallace, which, if so, is awesome

Dave is blindly hoping it's Wallace

Which doesn’t make a modicum of sense

Last time I checked, League didn't play first base....

I am optimistically befuddled

?

But what does this have to do with Beltre?

Is wallace now blocking anyone in that system?

I don't think so

Atleast not if he moves to 1B

bamfor - December 21, 2009 reply

Cooper, but he's not that good

Morrow hasn't even had a full year starting at the ML level

Trading him for a reliever now is giving up on him. There’s no way we’re giving up on him already

We have no idea who the prospect is

On the MLBTR board

speculation is JP Arencibia is the prospect.

arbfuldodger - December 21, 2009 reply

note the source

and promptly ignore that

Don't like that too much

I’m waiting and seeing until we get more concrete reports anyway

Would you not like JP Arencibia?

Did you like Miguel Olivo?

He was fun.

Was he very good?

Hint: he’s now a Royal

Well of course he wasn't good.

But dammit he was ours!

Because Dave thinks Arencibia is probably worse

Arencibia is almost the exact opposite of the Jack Z type

No patience at the plate whatsoever

But from what I've seen out of GMZ

Can’t we assume that the prospect is atleast someone worthwhile? Frankly I don’t see Brandon League being the centerpiece of a Brandon Morrow deal

Would prefer if we didn't react one way or another until we have at least a name from a real source

Agreed

I guess all I’m saying is that while people’s initial reactions may be negative, GMZ has earned all our trust. I’m not jumping ship yet

Great.

Because I didn’t want to get any sleep tonight anyways.

Kyle Rancourt - December 21, 2009 reply

Boy he just won't quit

Well at least League is good

We should also learn if the prospect is significant!

late

Aw

Surely they are throwing in Lyle Overbay

I hear it is Roy Halladay

Aw, we could have gotten them both in the same deal!

Oh, is he good? I've heard of him!

Buh? Wha? Eeeks!

No more diabetes jokes!

Aumont, Clement, Morrow, see ya!

Z doesn’t think very highly of your picks Bavasi.

OceanBird - December 21, 2009 reply

What about bringing back the local kid?

This is a pipe dream though.

Three team trade involving the Giants? Get out!

Kermit. - December 21, 2009 reply

I hate you. :(

Jeff Nye - December 21, 2009 reply

I was think Travis Snider.

But I would take that as well.

I'd be blown away if Z landed Snider.

(Or has his stock dropped since I last paid attention?)

Teej - December 21, 2009 reply

I don't think it we are getting him.

But Z has taught me to dream big.

I'm assuming it's Wallace, Drabek and d'Arnaud.

Teej - December 21, 2009 reply

No he's really good

But he’s one of exactly two names that make sense for the Mariners off that team. There’s got to be more to this than Morrow for League+unknown, and I’d guess that it’s probably someone on our side.

Include Saunders - We get our Local kid and they get their canadian?

Everyone always wants a Canadian

This is getting to be exhausting

but by all means, keep doing your thing, GMZ!

melenious - December 21, 2009 reply

This makes me happy

Because I fucking hate Brandon Morrow.

Yeah I am on board with this

Assuming, of course, that we’re getting back a good player (which I have no reason to doubt)

tootthekazoo - December 21, 2009 reply

Aw man, the poor kid is doing his best

Yeah come on now
