Hot Stove - 12-7-17



The Mets seem to be showing interest in Cincy CF Billy Hamilton.

IF Ruben Tejada's new minor league deal with the Orioles is worth $1.35mil + $600K more worth of incentives if he makes the parent club... take it away, Reese.

The Cubs sign P Tyler Chatworth to a 3-year deal worth $38mil.

Kansas City has agreed to terms with two ex-Braves International prospects, OF Juan Carlos Negret and RHP Yefri Del Rosario, who were granted free agency after that mess in Atlanta.

The Twins purchased OF prospect, Jacob Pearson, from LAA, for $1mil worth of International pool money... 

Seattle has traded catcher prospect, David Banuelos, to the Twins for $1mil international pool money.

  1. Hamilton would sure provide speed.

    Chatworth 8-15 last year - THAT gets you 3 years, $38MM

    Ruben is worth every penny, right, Reese?

  2. Don't laugh:

    Chatwood has 2nd best road ERA in NL over past two years, behind only Kershaw. Taking him out of Colorado might have been an astute move by the Cubs.

  3. I only quibble with you on one point, Tom. Tejada is worth about a penny.

  5. Bill, I don't think for either Reese or myself, that we hate Ruben Tejada - I never did, he tried his best - we though have been very disappointed in the decision makers that would have considered a guy with back up skills like Ruben to be a suitable Mets starting position player. Neither Reese nor I would have been satisfied as team owners with putting a 65-70 win type player at SS. That is how teams miss the playoffs.

  6. That's a legit opinion, Tom, but why kick a dead horse over and over? He's gone, ditto Terry. Comments like "worth a dollar" are hateful IMO.
