MADISON BUMGARNERSP, SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS

The teams on Madison Bumgarner's no-trade list were revealed on Saturday.

Bumgarner has a limited no-trade clause that allows him to block trades to eight teams of his choice. Those teams are the Braves, Red Sox, Cubs, Astros, Brewers, Yankees, Phillies and Cardinals. It is no coincidence that those are the competitive teams most likely to want to trade for him. The composition of this list indicates that Bumgarner doesn't want to be traded. He is in the last year of his contract with the Giants and is very likely to be moved over the summer. The no-trade clause gives Bumgarner some control over where he ends up -- he can always waive the right to block a trade. Ken Rosenthal points out that being traded could help Bumgarner financially because he would no longer be subject to a qualifying offer and draft-pick compensation, which lowers the market value of free agents.

Let’s start with the fact that he’s played in all 39 games this season. Secondly , he was hitting .316 through the 1st 19 games. I guess the carryover effect was a delayed reaction.

Maybe you’re right, I’m just pessimistic.  Perhaps he will regain his MVP form after all.

Verlander had a no trade clause when we got him.  Semantics.

I know it won’t happen but Altuve needs a short IR visit. He needs a reset on this season 

Agree. Go on the 10 day DL, this is the time to do it, against teams with losing records. Come back healthy and with a clear mindset.

agreed.  just thought it was interesting and relevant.

Yes it is interesting, but I hope if we are seriously considering him we aren't waiting with minutes left in the deadline this time. Go get him right now. Why wait?

i would think we'd have to "overpay" to get him now.  sf likely wants to wait until they have multiple suitors.

doesn't mean we won't do it.

Our boy Marwin....sorry if already posted haven't been on thread

Double negatives suck 

Yeah, that's a poorly worded tweet from McTaggart. 

I’m a little confused. So AJ isn’t positive that Altuve is going on the IL but Martin is coming up to start tomorrow’s game. Does that mean someone else is going down? Probably not but a little incongruous.

Not optimistic that Jose is going to avoid the IL = Jose is definitely going to the IL. 

I dont even think Martin is on the 40 man

I’m going to have to suck it up and actually root for an aggy tomorrow. It’s going to be tough.

this offends me as an english speaking person.

i can only assume "not optimistic" is the only important takeaway?

Martin has posted great numbers in his minor league career to include a 2.31 ERA and 193 K in 179 innings. This season he has a 1.48 ERA with 28 K in 24.1 innings. He has also allowed just a .191 BAA in his minor league career.

Martin to make his MLB debut tomorrow:

 

I fully expect the Corps and Reveille to be there for his first home start. 

Edited by billfromlaketravis

Well, I guess I'll welcome myself to thread. Back to the Astros being the city's only hope for a championship. I wouldn't expect anything else. 

not sure what baggy's talking about here

Damn, the way George dropped the head and turned on that one was pretty

Rangers catcher is killing the home plate ump.  That's two he's whiffed on that hit him.
